1 Mr. T. W. McMillan bu commenced work
i at bla brick yard on Long Cane, near ibe line
of tbe 8. A. L. He will make a large quantity
of brick foraale, and our people aboold engage
tbem If It 1* Ibougbt to build any new
I Industrial enterprise at Abbeville,
j Mr. McMillan baa a contract with tbe
I Honea Paib Cotton Mill to make two and a
half million brick. Tbla contract will be All,
ed on tbe Abbeville brancb of tbe Southern,
I end tbe road will earn tbem to Honea Fatb.
Mr. McMillan makee a aplendld brick, and
be la liberal In blaprlceaand In bla aubacrlpr
tlona to new enterpriaea. He took atock In
1 the cotton mill, and afterward wan one of the
' largest anbacrlbera to tbe capital atock of tbe
I Abbeville Warehouse. In addition to this he
' baa expreaaed bla wIlllOKneaa to lake a liberal
, aubacrlptlon to tbe capital atock of almoal
' any enterprise mat would nana np Anuevme.
1 Tb?rearo many other cttlseoa who would
: gladly chip Id to belp tbe town along. Tbe
ootloo mill waa mainly built by poor folk.
Tbe otbar aort of people oould more eaaliy
build another, If tbe entarprlae eommcnda

X?? larintrlal Ea|*rprl?ea.
AbbevilleabouId baveanother cotton mill
ol aom? kind. A small spinning mill and a
' knlUInc mill properly managed might pay
r well, and eltber enterprise would give emi
ployment to people wbo would spend tbelr
money. A great many mill employee* spend
tbelr money freely, and wben money Is put
' In circulation beneficial results follow.
The Abbeville Cotton Mill was organised
on a small subscribed capital, lis first ebar,
ter waa for only 963,000. While It la not prob|
able tbal our people would subscribe as mucb
, tor a second mill as tbey did lor tbe first, yet,
( If tbey will It, a n#w mill will be bullL As
ter aa we are Informed nobody regrets bavin*
helped to build tbe existing mill, and nobody
need beetute to lend a band at building another.
There Is no use to wait forever. We <
can and ?bou!d build aometblog else. Let

Pull. .1:13, "Tble one thing I do."
Obviously the Christian !liebu* more tban
one aide. Oar conception or It dependaupon
our point of view. We may regard Christ a*
our Mavlor or aa oar Lord and Maater. We
may regard onrael vee aa gueats al bla table or
aa laborer* In bla vineyard. Keoepllve bearla
and busy banda complete Uie Christian Ideal.
Lite baa an active and a paaalve aide. Tbe
pfcMiive la largely a preparation tor tbeacltve.
I believe we are aaved lo serve.
ll la wlib ibe active aide oi life tbat weaball
bave to do to-day. wblcb subject la suggested
by tbe words x>f Ibe text.
i a mi nnta riini. bow the demands of grace
accord with the demand* of nalure. Ii baa
been written, "There Ma deep-eeaU-d neoeaal
ty tor work to tbe constitution of oar nature.
In tbe a baa nee of regular and active occupation,
tbe mind la apt to crow morbid, stagnant,
aud what la more than either??elflKb.
Oneol the greatest thlnkera ol ud11<ju11y defined
bappiuea* to he an "energy 01 tne mml."
And la It nut irne? Only wntch tbe avidity
with wblch men, even In extreme out tigc.
when one would think the Inteieala ol lile
were on the wane for them, catch al aome ex
citing pursuit, like politics. Tbe IrMtou,
willed.** CtirUtUiix. we anouia ieari? iruiui
lhl? observation, to that muni unquestionably
Uod bM made man for activity." Hugged |
old Tboina* Carlyle. wtioan word* were like
tbe blow* tbal breuk tba nick, upokr never
inorelruiv nor fore-July man when lie unIcI,
One monater there^a In the world?the Idle
tuan." When Uod made man he put lilin
not on I pedestal lor exhibition, but In a g*rden
for aervlce. Man w?a created to do a
work aa well an to bear an Image. The Father
wotketn hitherto, and 1 work," aatd tbe
Ideal man.
Tber* are bnt twoela*?ea of rational creatnrea
tbat are exempt from (be law of aollve
aervlce?tboae wiioini I neap ?ettate<l by tbe
Infirmities of age or the ravage of dlaeaae elder*
and invalid*. We say. mey My, that,
they are "laid on the anvil" But la that absolutely
true* When Uod lay a hla hand upon I
men and take* tbe keenneaa out of liieir vlaIon,
and the trnalon out of tbe mn?cle, and
tbe elasticity out of tbe atep, be la not necesaarlly
retiring them. Blind Milton sang:
"They alao aerve wbooniy aland and wait."
And Itobertaon aald, "No man'* work la done
aa louse* Uod baa any thing tor blm to anffer."
But It la work In the active sense of the
word Ibal Interests ua especially to-day.
Now note. In the second place, ihe Importance
of tbe work that I* distinctly Christian :
Moat men labor wltb tbelr beadaorbanda
or botb, btKHUM* mey nave 10. or q?k ur mur,
But tbe trouble Is tbMiao tunny give all, or
practically all, of tbelr strength to tbe (ritlog
of tbal wbtcb In material and langlbis and
vlwlble. They are like the nobleman who
exhausted ail bis treasure In building hla
pitlMce and then bad nothing with which to
lurntsb IL Thu* are tbey dolog who give
tbelr undlvlved thought aud strength to tbe
enrlcbment and adornment of tbelr external
Uvea wblle tbey neglect beart enriobmeni
and aptrltual adornment. Many centuries
ago Mobammeii ssld, "It I had two loaves of i
bread, I would aell one and bny hyacinths,
lor tbey would feed my aoul." By wblcb be
evidently meant that It Is not wise to spend
all upon tbat which ministers to tbe physical
life.
But many wbodo give some thought to tbe
higher lire regard tbelr religions duty discharged
wben tbey attend, witb some degree
or fidelity, to tbe devotional part of life.
Therefore, tbelr religions activity consists In
attendance, more or less regular, upon tbe ordinances
of tbe sanctuary. Now let no
word be aald depreciatory of the Importance
of tbat wblch tbe cburcb affords.
It Is Weil to go to cburcb. Here tbe
son I Is fed, or supposed to be fad; and Ills
food tbat. under ordinary circumstances. Is
lndl?pensable. But "life Is more tnan meat."
It Is a calamity to have nothing to do but eat.
Labor Is quite ss essential to physical bealtb
and development as bread. Fred your soul
"""? nr?r?f and mm. but fonret not
that "man ahail uoi live by bread alone."
111* Important Itiat every Christian five
hlmHelf to something very definite Id tbe
way of Christian service. The trouble with
moat people la desultorloeaa id service. Tbey
touch life ligblly at many point*. and powerfolly
at do polot. How true Matthew Arnold'a
lines:
"Moat men eddy alioul
Hereand tbere?eat and drink.
Chatter and love and hate.
Ualher and squander, are raised
Aloft, are buried lu the dual,
HtrlvluK blindly, achieving
Nothing; and no one aaka
Who or what tbey have been
More iban be aaka what wavea
In the moouiii aolltudea wild
Of the mid moat ocean have awelled,
Foamed for a uiomeut, and gone."
Note two reaulla of aucb almleaaocaa Id
Cbrlatlan aervlce.
Tbe flral la uaeleaaneaa, cr at leaat comparative
uaeieaaueaa. Mr Moody ouce said, "Toe
trouble with a great many men la that Ihey
apread themael vea out over too much ground.
Tbey fall lu everything. If Ibey would ouly
pat their II i? into one channel, and keep In It,
they would aroompllah aomethlUK. They
make, uo Impression, becauae Ihey do n little
work bere and a Utile work there. * L?y
youmeivea ou the altar of God, and then con
cenIrate on aome one work." Too many of
u* are like thoae strange rlvera In Australia
tbat flow alUKglsbly along, and spread themselves
out and Anally alnk Into the aanda
without turning a wheel. Oh, that we could
gather up our acattered energies, and throw
them loto the cbunuel ol dellulleueBa He-1
lect some worthy work, and make that an-1
preme until II la tlnlabed, or your life done.1
This almleaa dipping Into everything in gen-1
eral and nothing in particular Is vastly belter
suplue Indifference, but la not the beat '
thing, for It make* vast accomplishment Impossible.
Tii? growth and success of the Christian :
Kdeavor movement are kubjecta of frequent
comment. Wltliln m brief >pae? of time tint
