About once in very ao ol i n soiuo body comes to the front w it thc wail thu/ tlie mus'c used In t. e Sun lay acliools ia altogether bad ami trashy, and that there ia no longer any desire for the old and better mu sic,. . Like everything clue, that crlHclaoi baa Just omni j; h truth in lt to make UH wonder Jam how true tt ia. One of tho religious papers un dertook to lind out something abo.it it lately, and this is what was dis covered : Sunday acliools in sixteen states were usked to volo on their favorite hymns, and did so. Thu result showell that there was not such a universal longing for the so-called "popular" hyams as had boori though'.. Of course, all the schools did net ugreo on any list. Mut thev dld ug.ee on a good many hymns, and this ls the list of those hymus willoh were shown to be .most popu lar of all: Onward Christian Soldiers, Sound thc Hattie Cry. Glory Song, Savior Like a Shepherd Lead t's, Love Divine All Love Kxcclling, Shine in My Soul. Trust aud Obey, All Hull tho Power, Help Somebody To day, I Love to Tell the SUiry, lloiy H"iy, Holy, God Will Take Caro of \ J, Crown Ulm King of Kings. Fourteen hymns, and not a rag time tuno among them. Tho Sundi; school iy pot going to musical d3 st ruction quito yet. It docs not I'ko to sing "Hark to the Toniba" and lt never will. . It. does not like wha: many call "funeral" nynma. Youn^ folks wunt an.ion and liveliness, and they want a religion that has plenty of those qualities in it. Out to get these things In tho hymna they do not liavo to sing trash. Christianity has alway:; boon active and alive, and there aro plenty of good hymns with good music for young people" lo ping. Nobody, need worry about'thc Sun day school and Cts~ music. j THE IllllT KATE HS lu many sections of South Georgia ?the dil t-oatlng habit ia said to have grewn to euch propon lt,.is that a cou corted effert, either in the. form of legislation ! miki ng uuch practice a iri^sdemeaner, or, efforts along thc Olio ?ot educational uplif*, are to bc made by. representatives of the beat interdis of .such cummunitlcs.

On February 18. 187.1. Mr. Ashley was married to Mles Mallala Moore of Abbevlllo county, and she with KIX c..w?ren also survive. The chil dren arc: .M. J. Ashley of Abbeville county, Mrs. W. H. Canfield, .Mrs. J. B. N. Ashley, Mrs. .Ja:;. N. fear-} man, Joe M. H. Ashley and Orri Avhley. Ho is also survived by 24 g.^ndchildren and two great grand children. Born and reared a poor !>oy. Mr. Ashley had to work very hard in his early (lays. At tho age of '21 he was working at a small ellary on tho farm. Later he began farming for himself and during his life time .succeeded in accumula'lng a com paratively lurge fortune. In addi tion to. running his large furm at Monea Path, ho for a while engaged in thc mercantile business on a Sinai] I scale. Mr. Ashley's first entrance te:tu politics was lu 1802. During the campaign of lS'JO some of his friends put his name forward as a candi dato for the house of representatives, but ho declined to run. However, in 1892 he announced himself as a I candidato for tho house and was elected. With the exception ot two years, ho served continuously for 20 years, his last term expiring !n 1914. This record is one that is probably unequalled. In one campaign year Mr: Ashley ofTcrcd himself as- a candidate for tho state senate, tut was defeated. In tho ne.\t primary he again of fered for the house and was Sent back. Upon h's entrance into tho house of representatives, Mr. Ashley soon made a record ?Cpr .himself and was from the start recognized as a lead er. Ho w^is appointed a member of a number of tho Important commit tees, and for a long period was chair man of the agricultural committee, one of thc most Important in tho house. Mr. Ashley's record In tho house ls known throughout the state. Ho always entered Into a tight with hts whole soul, and there was never any doubt in tho minds ol the people how he stood on any. measures before the house. Ho ^was the fir.?t repre sentative In South Carol tua to intro duce a bil) regulating the hours of labor for the colton mills, and his bill ultimately., ibe?ame a law*. ... He strived to do everything within his power to sscurc legislation favorable to tho Kinnora, laboring classes and poor people. Because of his strong opposition to extravagant appropria tiens he was dubbed "The Watch Dog of the Treasury." He waa a great and strong advocate for liberal pen sions for Confederate \eterans and their w.'dows. He always fought for liberal appropriations ton tho state hospital for tho Insane, and was re cognized as a true friend of tie in stituto for the deaf and dumb. Yhe3e three things stand out preeminently In Mr. Ashley's record, as a member of the legislature. Mr. Ashley led thc light for tnt ropryil of "tho Lloyd Radical bonds, wh'ch were. Issued during reecs-jtrue? tlon times. Thcro wau suiilcient ?vl-, dence to show that these, .bonds had boen paid, and yet thoy continued .tb come u-y for redemption:-. For' 10 ycart/ tho legislature had thc mattor cf again redeeming those bonds, and Mr, Ashley was'instrum'ental In-hav ing those bonds written off tho books of tho stale'. ~. '", . J WEATHER FORECAST.
