Wat~ son, railed the Conference to order; and a magnificent audience tilled our beautiful Methodist church to its utmost. That Methodist can sing, every one know; who know any tiling. If on? wants to hewr soul-insni* inir tnu sir, they should go to a Methodist ? meeting. After devotional exercises, l'res. Watson, introduced Bishop Chandler. This is the first time our town has e*er been honored with the presence ? of a real ltisliop. Many wauteo to see one and their desire have been gratifled. Bishop Chandler is by no mean? (H) a curiosity; but a man of i-itelectual (.() power; with practical sense and above all. filled with the Holy Spirit. His address was masterful and ev~ ery one in the audience seemed to catcli every word. We conet it a privilege .ir to have heard this distinguished dills vine. We cannot give his address; n. but it- was masterly handled. Tin os Bishop believes in his cliureh; what il en has done; is doing for the world to-daj and what it stands for. There was in silly grand stand talk, but an abh presentation of Methodism. 1 " Program Commencement fixer eiscs South Carolina Co-Keluca lioiia] Institute. Sunday, June 2nd. j 11 A. M.

Mr. Editor, Please allow me space iui n ir? wvrtis. i want 10 leil you a conversation I heard a short while ago and its impression on inc. Two hoys having gone to the postofllce and gotten the mail, talked together going home. As near as I c.yi 1 remember, it was like this Frank. "Say, Harry what's that you've got in that bundle?" Harry. 1 ' It's iiiv mail. 1 ordered some books and papers from Street & Smith and they have come. I tell you they are line if they are like the others they sent me last week. Don't you waut 1 to read some of them?" Frank, '.What are they?" Harry. "The papers are "Idle Hours'' and ' "Happy Moments"; the books are Kob ' | Mclioy, the Daring Hero", the llob1 hers of Dordon Pass1' ami "a Life for ' a Life. They sound good don't they? y Frank. "1 have'nt had time to read ** much. I've just (hushed Emer* n's Essays" tho and I want to read "Long ellow's Poem's next. I don't see how - yon keep up with jour studies and _ work reading all that sti It " Harry. Oh, bother the studies. I'd rather have one of my books tl.an ail of fyour FmeruOtis, }'ip going to Colorado as ' soon as I ilnish sehool, and mnke a man of imself. fietter come with me. We'll have a rare old time capturing those robbers." Frank* 1 oau find plenty to do right here, and 1 bav'nt got the money to spend on a good time, that f ir from home. You stay here and work or you will never linisti school. You have'nt ' got any business vv i 111 Ikpap hooks under your arm. Its'a waste of time to read them, and lime Is money. No ' boy ran afford to throw away that much time. Your father is paying your tuiatiun. so you are throwing his money away if you don't employ your lime better than that." Ha-rv. Oh, go op Frank, you are so i rescinded, j'm going to read anything I can get if it is spicy .It makes 18 you want to do something. I will get thereafter awhile. I expect you'll ' hear of me before long in the Wild West" This was the conversation. Have ' you chosen your hoy yet? | picked mine before to dozen w.rdshnd nas'ed. I here was an air of sw;^(," r about g Harry that was not prepossessing at i .ill. And tbis was the fruit of liis it ' training, the result of constant association witli swaggeiing bullies. The I evils of cheap, trashy literature were at once suggested to me. The habit of reading Is one of ti.c best of habits. Hut not, when the reading is of the pool est and least instruct' ive kind. The taste for 1 terature is an acquired one. It must be cultivated >' Consequently, if boys and girls rem! tmct- * %> uut) * uvut.waTftxigt.,, tufr " their minds refuse to take substantia) * food. Notice the novel readers, 1 mean those who read cheap, exciting P romance of the I.uura Jean Libbv kind contiiiually. 'I hey are discontented . j with their position. They feel thai - , they arc ill iseJ, and not getting their I titles. They dream of doing great _ i tilings and live a romantic liaat, I?u" t , the healthy ui'nd is not affected tins t ! way, l?y reading these same bocks. , ; Why? Because it does not take tliein , I ncriously. The books are read by this . class, exercise or reccalion, from a critical standpoint, so tin- conclusion is that only a mind which has been fed oil the meat of good sound boons, and at he same time, is balanced by goo i I common sense: can subsist 011 the soj called sweets. Therefore, let all our 003s and girls read something else than these 2-"? cent a year monthly's and periodicals. In a sense they can't avoid them. For the publishers ot j these papers don t care whether you are a subscriber. They tire merely ad i iri iiMiaaiiu senu tneir papers to an\ |body. They cin afford to. Hut don't 1 read t hem at least uniil you know i what you are reading, they all contain ' mutter which isn't lit for the young or j old either as for that, and newspapers nearly as bad, but young people as a 1 r.ile duiit take to newspaper. What shall they read then, do you aak? Itead j the ltibie. There's not a grander ; piece of lilruti.ro in existancc, and no home is without it. '1 hero arc other books to, that arc cheap and wholesome tlie writings of Irving, Hawthorne, ltryaut, Longfellow and a I the great American ela sics .ire now published in so cheap a form that they are n. , r.-ach o! nil. ? The liouhle is this. Teachers in the 1 public schools, do not give tin- alien- j 11on to grammar and literature, thai they should. 'J hey t? ach grammar in a 11 r fundi ry way, Lti a use I hey must. The student does not put into praclice the principles drummed into In? , head Lecuti-e hi is not accustomed to \ tin in, they are odd and awkward. Le. 1 the teacher urge him to read stuuUaro N books, and encourage liiiu by reudiug ' , with him. This is (he planting of lot e seed. Tile student, if he has ordinary " abilities, sees tl e point gained and pursues the advantage. Thus Jii? knowledge of English graoimui is t strengthened, and his taste for reading , I. eult i The teneher has ngient responsibility, hut what few ren|jzo it, ^ results shn iv. 8.

Taylor, called "The Passing of the Farm," which appears in the June issue of The Ladies' Home Journal. The bowed and sad-faced figure of the lonly widow, standing with one hand on the open door of the waiting COUt-h while she takes a long l ast look at her old home, makes a strong appeal to the feeling*. The sad November sky, the distant misty hills, the closed house, the deserted barns, and above all, the dejected figure, bring a lump into one's tin cat. Several years ago Bishop Chandler, then a young ite-ant Methodist uiuii ter came to Batesburg and delivered a missionary address. That address is well remembered and has been recalled by a goodly number of our people. We remember a conversation tea years ago, we had with Mr T.
