Thin community was wakened a few nights ago by a powerful addrets by Dr. E. M. Poteat of Furman Uni versity. Tho Intelligencer asked the i-?ilimit educator and gifted speaker ;or a full account of Iiis subject, wJjich was to the effect that our lives and all that we have and are belong to God. Dr. Potent was unable to ;.:>v? us his thought as he carried it out, but the following synopsis is KOmetlllng to moke every reader of I'm piper think long and hard and deeply: "1 wub ju.st trj '.i:?i{J..^iu jay.-;, "to point out the giowtli^^f socialistic opinions, n growth which has been ho rapid and in BUchtMntucntlal clr ? les that ? begins nuw lo look like u uieuace.

That means, of course, thu destruction of Hie doc Irin?; uf private sftupcrty in thust tortny of wealth us*d in production.

The Kt u Testament itSSUIliCa the r.:nut of pri vate proprcty and put? it on the ba sis of trusteeship to God. That Is to say. private property in the Now Tos tnment i? not held by might, nor on tin- ground of expediency, but on tie ground of the lutore?tb of the King dom of God. "In this wr.y the New Testament provides agalnut the perils incident to pov;e:..;iou, giving full recognition lo all the factor.; in production. These tailors ure three: God, society and the individual It is easy to sec that God furnishes'all the original mate rials of production, that society gives to a man's accumulation the ?h?rac: ter of wealth, aud also, that it en hances the value of his accumula tlons. The contribution which the In dividual mak<** Im 'h'wmHHing a fortune "is extremely mnall. "It follows thaV when a man says. 'This Is mine, and I made it myself, and I am Kolng to do what I please with it,' he Is spe.iking without re flection; he would be laughable if the spectacle was not so sad. 'Perhaps more thon by any other one thing the growth of socialist opinion is stimulated by such ridicu Iouh selfishness. Only by the adop tion of the principles of the Kingdom of Heaven In the making and in the - use of money ejui this wave of so cialist opinion be stayed. We effec tively spike the, ?un8 Of th? socialistic propaganda when we hold property und use it in the ways of the King dom of God." TEXTILE NIGHT SCHOOL. With reference to the textile school ? to be started at nights by the Y. M. (\ A. we add the following informa tion: The c?n?ia?<> will be conducted under Instructors' thoroughly equip ped and prepared to teach textile de signing, mill calculations, mechanical drawing, arithmetic,, ? writing and spelling. The classes will be small and each man will receive individual attention and careful Instruction. There Is no fee for the class work, but every man who attends the-classes Is required to become a member of tho central Y. M. C. A., and this will carry a fee of $1.60 for three months. We understand that tiro announcement bus met with great favor. This school will be conducted somewhat along the lines of the Camak school at Spartan burg, ? PROSPECTS BRIGHT. We ara pleased to uee the develop ment that is going along ou all sides in Anderson. This town long has had the reputation for being the pluck iest iu the whole country. The people here, the native Andersoninns, are the salt of the earth, and some good people have come among them. - We believe that there is not a city in the Steto that will make a more general, material progress during the coming year than Anderson will do. There is something doing in Anderson every day, and when the end of the year comes and. wo begin to take stock of the development that has been com pleted we believe that the whole State will point with pride to Anderson as the banner city. THK It I. IK LAWS We agree with the ministerial union In Its efforts to break up loafing on the streets on Sunday. Thore should be some way to make the churches attractive enough, to keep the boys' attontlon there. Pu' the parental dis cipline, or lack of it. Is jo noticeable .'these days that Mine boys seem to feel most st homo in company of a rusty telegraptetwle. with a lot of companions around, ogling all who pass by. ^ Wie believe a lurfew taw would be j better than a SAtday closing law. As a ?natter of facfT and of law, we be lieve the drug stores cannot be closed -<n Sundays, ans] as a matter of Ins ure wo doubt exceedingly, if the dr?g stores are respd^aible tor the crowds ; of loafers. dj I A few. gears mo lt. frag considered . se a aign of poor breeding for a young man to be seen loafing around the Streets or in front of a church door, but, as the itev. Mr. Garrison mild at the dJaptiHt church Sunday night, the times have changed. WHAT IS THE TANGO. Some days ago a movement was started in Anderson to raise a fund to employ an experienced dunccr to come to Anderson to teach classes in j the new dances. Whereupon inquiry w.i. made "What Ih the Tango?" Sow this is f in-, answer that we Kot : , " I Isju Tango in at flippant aj ita : name would-indicate, it ej a beauti ful ? graceful dunce it Is not i luig nic-tight kind of a dance, hut n mod ernlzuiioii ot the- "Id quadrille or seltptlisciic, with some of the effect ul the stately minuet.

COMMISSIONERS MAKE CHANGES^ ROADWAY Which They Think Should Please People of Honen Path and Vicinity* At the meeting of the Board of County Commissioners Tuesday, Capt, J. C Ratnpey, in charge of ckaihgaag number 2, r?signe I, as he intends, to engage ic farming this year, 2nd M J. W. Cook was appointed to' succeed him. Mr. Rampey has been ? very capable and energetic. gang sergeant ind he will be succeeded .by a good man. Mr. Cook, it is stated, baa had 15 or 20 years experience at this kin?V ?! work, and !s. regarded very highly. The commissioners decided to change the road from Honea Path to Uelton in the neighborhood of Do shena, where the road crosses and recrosses the Columbia and Green ville railway. The now road will clim nate Co's crossing and Greer's cross ng and will run along the south tide of the railway, eliminating a >ad hollow which is constantly in lead of work. Tho commissioners 'eel that the public will be. greatly lccomfmodated by tho new road:and hat the cost to the county will be nlnlmized in the future. Supervisor King has been very nucn interested in the work, that*was loth; by private subscription under the supervision of a government engineer in the road leading out from West Market street toward the homes of Messrs..Laboon, Fowler and Fretwell. Vir. Hathaway, cne government ex pert, built the road in.dry weather, rod left here before a good rain could xnuv io i'ry ihe qualities of the toad. The road was raised above five < feet where it crosses the etreans in the follow, and tho hillsides were, cut lown to make the fill, thus changing the grade. But it appears that there w as not enough sand la proportion to the clay. al*ho??;h the sew" road; had a foundation of cinders. There has been so much dissatisfaction with the road that the government sent an in spector, Ms** Moon, here this week and he reports that the trouble is the lack of the proper proportion of sand. 8u _ ----j?- ij..! i.jw a?a^irkk>' at this time haul the sand, as it would interfere with his plan of.try ing to get all ovor the county with tight, running repairs On all roads before trying to centralise his ef forts on any particular spo*; or road for permanent work. fBrcv Tho purchase of twenty-four ?w?*? of motor driven fire apparatus and, motor fire boat la planned for Con' don.
