NOVEMBER 16, 1922 With the general public in possess'on of the fundamentals of education, rudimentary education, it will not be hard to stimulate the extension of higher education. We are not spending too much for higher education, but we are spending too little for primary education. Every dollar invested in the improvement of the common schools is an investment that will pay handsome dividends in intelligent citizenship. A BOOK THAT YOU SHOULD OWN A booklet of 85 pages, u "History of Grindal Shoals and Some Early Adjacent Families," is just off the press. Rev. J. D. Bailey, of Cowpens, is the author. This book, which we hope to review at a later date, is of peculiar interest to every citizen of the county who has the love of his county at heart. It tells of our early history. The book is of very vital interest, every page of it. You should own a copy for yourself. Send 50 cents to Rev. J. D. Bailey, Cowpens S. C., and get one.

To Dim or Not to Dim 3 Since certain maker* have started {utting 800,000 candle-power headlights on new flivvers, there hoe developed a glaring need for iome sort of an invention which will enable drivers of automobiles to see the read 1 when meeting other cars on the ! ?cad at night. In the words of the poet, with "flivvers to right of him, flivvers to left jf him, flivvers in front of him," the ' man who fares forth in an automobile at night now takes his life in his car with him, and it is luck if he makes his intended trip successfully. It is almost an impossibility to meet ' a car on the road at night and pass it carefully and safely. "To dim or not to dim," this is the i.uestion. If the careful driver dims, will the other fellow dim? If neither car dims, a driver can see the roadl immediately in front of him by looking to the side of the road and steerng by the ditch, keeping his own car on his side of the road and trust :?tjr the other fellow not to hit him.; ' hat is a pretty good way to be rignt,; but it is a mighy good way to run; mi to a buggy, or any unlighted vehicle! which might be a little further up the; lead. When both cars dim their lights,; neither driver can see. A hole or: rough place in the highway is likely: to throw tlu car into a ditch or over directly into the path of the other ma. chine. It is a problem, ami America f>| failure to correctly solve it, is a costly failure. Thousands of lives were! 'ost last year by automobile accidents, ever 10,000 in fact. IIow many of t'.a se lives were lost by accidents c u ed by glaring lights is not known,! hut the percentage must be large, 'viol sc. many lives are lost by night acei-1 dent?, but thousands and thousands of people are maimed and injured, and; millions of dollars of damage done; each year by these accidents, the nuni-1 oer of which are increasing daily. The old adage of "You can't have, your cake and eat it too," seems to! apply to the lighting question. v'ou can't have your light, and dim it too,' ; nd as move automobiles frequent the' reads, and brighter, more glaring, '.<*hts sh ne forth at night, the more, serious becomes the question. Courtesy of the road does not seem' o ho'd good any more. The road hog still wants the middle of the road, even after the sun goes down, but a] road hog is a little automobile with' big lights has even a better chance; of taking it. On the wide roads of; Anderson county, the danger should, be minimized, but from the number of accidents which are reported every week, it seems that wide roads do not mean safety. The man wiio first solves the ques-1 tion in ii praciral, economical manneri sheuld make n fortune out of his solution. Until this invention is found, however, let's us in- Anderson county use some common sense, some common courtesy, and a yvhole lot of care anci try to keep down the number of right accidents.?Anderson Mail. Small Chinese firms have found it cheaper and more efficient to hire a truck to do their hauling: than to hire the necessary number of coolies.

For a hundred years the Amale. I.ties had been a great thorn in the hide of Israel. No sooner had the crops of the Israelites been ready foi harvesting than the Amalekites would sweep down on them, and destroj tneir crops, and kill their young mer i;nd take their young women to be their concubines; and God tells His servant, Samuel, that it is time foi It to stop, and He says to Samuel. "Gc and tell King Saul to gather his armj together and go against these people ana utterly destroy them. Kill everj man and woman and child, infanl j nu suckling, every camel, and ox and ass, and sheep." In other words 10 wipe the tribe right out. So Saul gathers together an armj jf 210,000 men, and goes against the Amalekites . The Bible does not tel us anything of the battle, but w< know that they were victorious. Wher the word of the Lord comes again foi the second time to the pTophet, an' says, Saul has turned back from fol lowing after me, and if you put youi ear close to the ground you can heni the very sighs and groans of Geth scmane. It is the same old heart break, the disappointment of God ol rebellious men. and He says, "Saul ;ne man I elected, the man I anointed the man whom I gave this splendit opportunity, the man whom I anoint ed to make history for Ho has turner t ack from following Me." May I pause a moment to say this Supposing God were to write on youi forehead and mine tonignt, not whu cur folks think about us, not wha the world thinks, bu what He know us to be. Would He have to writ* he or she has turned back from fol lowing me? And when the prophe got the message he cried unto thi Lord all night, and he isn't the onh preacher that, has cried all night The thing that kills the average preacher is not work, because i preacher is just as honest a class oi men as any other class, but the thinj that kills the preacher is the want o1 consecration and the inconsistencies of his church folks. And so Samue started out to meet this rebellious king, and when he met him, I hav< often thought that Saul put on a verj long face and allowed a religious whine to come into his voice, anc said. "Blessed be thou of the Lord, 1 have returned from performing th< commandments of the Lord." If he had lived in our day, and hac seen ttfe preacher coming, he woult have put on his victrola, "Abide Wit! Me," and dusted the Bible, and pul it on the parlor table, and no soonei than the preacher would have gont out than "Abide With Me" would tome off tho victrola, and they would have put on it, "My Pretty Baby." And just as Saul said I have returned from performing the commandments of the Lord, away back in the rear of the army, some sheep began to bleat [.nd some oxen began to low, and the prophet knew that when they left bome that morning they did net take any cattle with them, and so the prophet said if you have done as you ivere told, where did you get these rattle from, for God told you to kill rvery living thing. And then Saul did exactly what /ou and I do. He put the blame inmewhere else, and said the people !id it. And if I came to you tonight ;nd asked you why you are not a ' hristian, the last person in the world rou would blame would be yourself. -Tome of you would say I never had a ight start. My parents did not care :cr religious tilings, and so did not nve me a right start, but von will ?o held responsible for your finish, ind while you may have been bom ven with a devil inside of you, it is. (uite possible to be bom attain, and nis timu with the devil out. Some ther fellow would say, well, it is my nvironment. I cannot bq a Christian md work with the crowd 1 have to vork with and do business with. 1 mow that environment is a great void. It is a very dainty morsel that ,ve roll on our tongue's end, but en. dronment is not everything. For instance,'you put a pig in your parlor, ;nd I know which will change first? t won't be the pig. You can't cure a vatient of smallpox by puting him wstween clean sheets, and you can be i bigger man than your environment. Another man says, well, your church s too narrow. WTiy don't you widen ;he doors to your church; why don't you let down the bars? Why don't you readjuat your program ? Why lon't you preach a more up-to-date jospei { i ooject, for if we widen he doors and lower the bars to suit fou, we should make out of our church .othing more than n social club. Who s going to readjust your program? PVho is going to give us this up-tolate gospel? We will let you do it f you will die and rise again in three lays. What you need is your mothr's sight, and your mother's honesty, ind if you had her sight and her lion.sty and her faith, your mother's gos>eJ would be plenty good enough for iou. Then, perhaps, you are saying there ire too many hypocrites in the church. Veil, I know it. The chuj-ch is not or perfect people. The church is for >ecple who want to be better. There re hypocrites on your street, but you ont leave the street. There are hyocrites in your business, but you' t \ h's Sermon | Men ing I ' don't get out of the business. There > are hypocrites in your lodge, but that i is no argument against your lodge. Neither is it any argument against the church, for as long as Uncle 8asa i makes a silver dollar worth a hundred i cents somebody will try to imitats it, and just as long as there is opportunI ity for a mail to be healthy and strong ' nnd manly, made so by the power of i Jesus Christ', just s<r long' there will ! be imitators who are not willing to i pay the full price. ' * Then there are some who are say> ihy I never have any feeling. Feelf ing is a result of your acceptance of , Jesus Christ, and can't come before r you obey the unutterable conditions. t Then somebody says, well, I can't be , a Christian, the devil won't let me. , Poor old devil. He gets blamed for eo awful lot of stuff that he is not r guilty of. The devil has to make the > same proposition to you and to me I that he made to the Son of God, and }| Ihut was, "Cast yourself down," and I no man yields until he wants to, any ?| no man consents without he knows it ! You have for years resisted th< - pleadings of friends and of the Holy r Spirit and of God and of Christ, and r ww with the same will power foi - honesty yon can turn back on th-. things of sin, and with the same will f power say yes to Jesus Christ. Bu\ , ar you read this story you will fine. that' nil Saul's troubles came because II he wanted his own way. He said the - neople have* saved these oxen and 1 i hecp for an ottering to the Lord, and not to make money for themselves : I but for an offering to Jehovah, ur.J r Samuel says, "Obedience is bettei t "<an sacrifice." In other words, God tj does not' want your tears and your 31 money. Het wants you. You are the ?i one that counts, and because you have i i'..ected God's Son, God will take the t- kingdom away from you, and ouv ? trouble comes right there. \Ve want j our own way. We say there is no j harm in this or that or the other when i' God has written death on these things, i' Yet we are feeling with them and fj piaying with them r ' the time. ; I May I ask you now what are you fj going to do? You say I am going to 3 have TOy own way. Well, you can, but 1 remember there is coming a time in 3 your life ani mine when God is going ? to have His way. And it is quite r possible for you to gain a few sheep 3 and oxen by having your own way. i but let me ask you this question, Will [ it be woHh it if you lose your own ? soul?
