Easter SundayEaster Sunday passed off most pleasantly. Exercises were held in all the churches except the Presbyterian church. The pastors of the different congregations chose for their themes passages appropriate to the occasion. Easter is a Pagan name. It was a name I given to a heathen goddess, the goddess of springtime, of our Saxon forbears. As such she was reverenced and worshipped by .them. In some way the Christians turned this pagan custom into a Christian rite and thus the resurrection of our Savior is commemorated. It was probably easier to introduce christian worship among these people by permitting the name "Easter" to remain and changing the spirit of the worship from the former heathen custom to that of the resurrection of our Savior. Many names and traditions come down to us from our old Saxon forbears. All the|daye of our week come from the names of Saxon gods. The common god of the English people was Woden, the w*r t.h? ciiArrilan of the nation, and from his name we have Wednesday. Thor was the god of thunder, who was supposed to hurl his mighty bolts through the air with such violence as to cause the the reverbrations heard from strokes of lightening. From Thor's name we have Thursday. ; Freya was the goddess of peace and gladness and fruitfulness. She was worshiped by young maidens bearing in their hands the emblem of the goddess. From the of Freya we have our Friday. I ' Sotere is the name of a god [from which We have our Saturday. There was another terrible Anglo Saxon god, Tiw by name > to meet whom was death. When an an . gie or a Saxon died he was supposed to have met the much feared god. Tiw, from whose name we have Tuesday. Sunday Is called after the Angle Saxon sun god and Monday after the Moon god. Thus each day of the week Is named after an Anglo-Saxon god. ? ? Tho IndUis of OklahomaDie Indians of Oklahoma are reported to be In a state burdering on rebellion. They are extremely restive. ' Years and years ago when the whites began to settle the West the Indians then occupied the country, and had to be dealt wtth. The Government in its wisdom saw best to make treaties with these Indians thereby guarantelng to them certain immunities and protection, and on the other lianas exacting of the Indians good behavior and peaceful pursuits, For many years these Indians lived at peace under the terms of the treaties and ja tu weni wen in we jlwitiiam y. ?miadi mo ^ territory became ambitious to become a 8M state anu so Oklahoma joined the sisteris hood. While the treaties with the Indians M have not been declared null and void they $1 have become null and void, the State not H providing the protection and lnmunities as SWdtd the United States government. Each Indian became a citizens of the new state with no more prlviliges or immuni H ties than any white citizens. gjCH Now the Indians wish to know what has H become of the promises of the Government The Indian has been badly treated in |w treaties. He has mane treaties with the PjM whites for 400 years and in the majority of cases the "pale face,' has broken the treaties. um The Indian usually did what he promis Et?e white man usually forgot his remises. government should see that the es made with the Indians are exi to the letter, and if there was no Imlt to the treaties, there should be mit limit to the obligation of the nment The Debate. scheduled on last Friday the Debate en members of the Abbeville and wood High Schools took place in rand Opera House. The young edresenting Abbeville were Messrs Iialph Syfan and Robert Coleman; those ?presenting Greenwood: The subject of discussion is one of naional interest: Resolved that the United Jtates should have a greater navy. The ipeeches were well prepared and well deivered and were listened to with unflagging Interest from beginning to end. It s usual at an ente rtainment of this kind clnd to have large audiences in Abbeville but for some reason the audience was rather small on Friday night. Our >eople should lend countenance and enlouragement to such efforts on the part if the school. No exercise in which the members lould engage would be more fruitful of >enflt to the individuals, and espirit de lorpe generally than in just such exercises is were held last Friday night, Even the Ooxrlnrt KooqKo!!

Greenwood won the debate, though it ras closely contested and the percentages m either side were within a fraction of he same number. The Judges were Mesirs Ramsey Blake of Greenwood, Howard loo re esq. of Abbeville, and f Elberton, Ga. The Greenwood boys sejcted an Abbeville man and the Abbeville ioys selected a Greenwood man and the wo schools selected the jthird Judge who ffas to be from neither place.

Good Stock Company. The Hutton Baily stock company plaj ed its initial play in Abbeville Monda night to a pleased audience. The drarm tis persomd measure up to Manage Cheatham's standard, and are consequent ly No. 1. Mr. Cheatham has secured the compan; for the entire week nnd Theatre goers ar enjoying the repertoire company to th fullest. J The Entre-acts are just as enjoyable a the plays themselves. Between each ac amusing specalties are presented whici never allow the interest to flag for an in stant. Mr. Cheatham has won for himself ai enviable reputation as a connoiseur o plays and our people owe him a vote o thanks for the high class entertain ment which he has presented the Theatr going public. A good clean company. A repertoire of interesting, wholesom plays. Clever Actors. Interesting specialties. Popular prices. These are some of tha characteristics o the Hutton Bailey Stock Company. Still Intelligent and Refined. The Columbia Record after copying th bitter editorial of The State about th burning of Harbison College makes this timely comment. This is an arraignment of a communit; and a race ,that can lie justified only b; facts. Where are the facts? There is absolutely nothing in the pub lished accounts of this fire to warrant th assertion that the incendiarism was th work of whites. Perhaps The State ha exclusive information as to the perpetra tors of the outrage and knows them ti be white. In that case The State c in d< the town of Abbeville and the State o South Carolina a service by turning ove that information to the proper authori ties of the law. Not only has thero been nothing publish ed to warrent the assertion that the in cendiaries are white but the common be lief among the people of Abbeville is tha they are not white; that the crime wa: not the product of "race hatred" inten sified by a "feeling of jealousy awakene< by a vague sense of inferiority in th breast of the untutored white when hi sees the negro responding to the stirrinj of ambition." That is a line phrase whici would do credit to somo uninforrue* Northern magazine writer, but the belie among the people of Abbeville?who ma; have some reason for their belief?is tha the fire at Harbison college was set by ne groes, jealours perhaps of other mem bers of their race or actuated by soim other motive. There are few, if any, ii Abbeville who think the lire was set b; whites. Until it is made to appear probable thn the people of Abbeville are mistaken i: this belief it mifjht be well to whithold th indictment of that community, "once center of intelligence and refinement, which is still a center of intelligence an refinement, Columbia Record College Girls at Home. The Misses Margaret and Katherine Klugh, Mary Quarles Link and Mar] Smith are home from Converse College foi a short stay. The young ladies them selves and their friends and relatives an enjoying the visit. + Carnival Coming Soon From the fourth to the ninth of Apri John Jones will be here with his big car nival. It looks a little like having a soirei in the morning, a dance in daylight, or i frolic at sunrise to have a carnival to com* at this time of the year but its coming Shows of this kind make the rounds of the South usually in the fall of the yeai when more money is in circulatior then than at the other time, but Johr Innen is pominirr with entertain men enough to last the town for an entire weel and he is coming in April. In this part of the country April is on< of the busiest months. Farmers are bus: putting seed in the ground for next fall'i harvest, merchants are busy and [anxious busy supplying farmers and ansious as t< what the year will bring forth in the wa; of a crop. The merchant who does a tinn business must of necessity exercise grea faith for he puts out his money on tin hopes' of a good crop. A crop failur would ruin many. But Jones is coming all the same, com ing with his dens of wild animal; with hi ferris wheels and soe-saws; coming witl his wonderful, new, and entertaining sid< shows; coming with the tinsiled dancers and Egyptian horns; coming: with the fusi and flurry and dust and confetti and mu sic and sausages and candy wheels and bij snakes and acrobats and slot machine and fortune tellers and hot waffles an< crazy houses and things! Jones is coming. There is no use to tr to dodge the issue. He will bo here pivs ently. Just make up your mind that yoi will have to deliver over to Jones a littl of your pocket change ifor one weeks en tertainment and then all kelse follows eus lly. It is all in a life time and Jones ii coming. Cotton may be b or 18 cents next fall neither one will affect Jones in the least He is coming to Abbeville on the fourth o April and this is no April fool. We may prefer to be entertained in th fall but Jones prefers to entertain us now and for that purpose ho will be here on th fourth, proximo. Candy Egg Hunt. On last Saturday evening the womei of the A. K. P. Church gave to tlie young eters a candy egg hunt in Klugli's Park Instead of the painted egg imitation can dy eggs were hidden, Coo in number. In addition to the fun of hunting th< eggs, refreshments were served consistini of lemonade and cake. About one hue died and forty young people were presen Aikens Speech on Calhoun. ' c- Time was when the word of John C. s Calhoun was the law of his constituents. >1 This place of hiffh esteem was enjoyed by, a Calhoun for the jjood reason 'that no pub- |, d lie man was ever more sincere or disin- s y tercet ed in serving his people and the ( nation; no ninit'has a clearer insight into's if the public all'airs of his time and no iii.-in j n lias been endowed with e(pial logical I (1 h faculty of mind during his or any subsc- f 11 quont time. v So often hostile name of Calhoun been s i- used by public speakers in the state, and , i especially in Abbeville County, and so s it little is really known of hiui by the South Carolinian of to clay, that men have c jl turned from the mention of his name al- t r. most as a worn chestnut. This is unfair t 1 to Calhoun and it is unjust to ourselves. j In many respects Calhoun is without a g r peer among American Statesman. No t [i South Carolinian can afford to be ignorant f of his life and talents. The speech of Congressman Aiken, at { the recent unveiling of the Calhoun statue { in Washington, throws a Hood of light on { the life, character and work of Calhoun. ( y We think it will prove of such interest to A t- the people of Abbeville County, that we ^ r have printed it in full in this issue <>f the pai>er. ( W- P. Greene Entertains. e In one of the most informal receptions ( ever given in Abbeville Mr. W. P. Greene , s entertained some forty or fifty friends . t (male) on last Saturday night. h The host was at his best and nothing ( was spared to make the occasion notably j a pleasant one. n A regular turkey and salad supper with ,f every thing that could possibly accompany, f followed by ice cream and cake, and settled . by good cigars, made up an ideal gentlee man's supper. Mr. Greene is one of the most enterprising and public spirited citizens of e Abdevillo, and stands high in the legal profession. G- H. Mahon f Mr. G. Hey ward Mahon, former mayor of Greenville was in the city on business yesterday. Mr. Mahon come of hustling stock. He is jack of all profession. If law is needed he is a good lawyer; if an orator is needed he is "Johny on the' spot" as was proved by his oration before the Press Association which met in Greenville 3 last summer; if a preacher is needed he can preach the life of a town tout of ennui P and desuetude into vim and vitality. He y is worth having around. 0 a Story by Mrs. Jno R. Blake ? In this issue of the Press and Banner o will be found a short story writton by our > fellow towns-woman, Mrs. Jno. R. Blake. r The story is well worth reading, exhibiting - situations and characters which show Mrs. Blake to be possessed of a vivid immagi" nofi'/?n arwl r*l on cir? cr . """ t?

Other churches ^ I were all closed. * v '* Those who attended this service have r ~ even greater reason for gratification, for v i on every hand, may be heard words of } V pleasure at hearing the Bishop. v t ~ II Tribute of Respect. !r Whereas it pleased Almighty God to call .. to himself on October 18, 1909, our friend r j and brother in Christ, C.

In the pvesenee of so many fatalities I pave the reader to form his own coneluion as to whether we should be further axedlo add other names to the list of *: 11 I-1,. <*li iI*I.|,(tc >1ii 11 n ?l ii ' 'i nruui; i.jiui vmvu. I furtlior leave the reader to form his >\vn opinion as to whether we should hold nst to those which we already have, or rhether we should neglect the very subtanoc now in our possession that we night roach for the shadow of visionary chenies. I further leave the reader to form his >\vn conclusion as to whether there is in his oountry any well formed belief that here exists in the great Iranian heart any ixed and determined antagonism to the ingingofthe hymns, so many of which cive to the hungering soul the sweetest lonsolation. The reader may be aids to determine or himself whether the exclusion of hymns roin our public service has met with jublic favor, or if the act lias not had a leterrent effect in keeping men and vomeii out of our church c.nd away from the foot of the cross. Do you say, if we withdraw our objection .o the singing of hymns, that there will be 10 longer a need for our separate corporate sxistence? I answer: If the main object in the life )f the A. It. P. church is to prevent men tnd women from singing the hymns;that rive the sweetest consolation, then there s no good to be conserved by maintaining JUi ouijuiaiu uAioi/cJiv-o vi in * * ossing light. Do you say that the A. II. P. C. has the ligher and the holier mission of extending he blessings of the Christian religion to ill, and that to enroll their names in the jamb's; book of life is their main purpose? Then I answer: Yes, there is great need >f onr continued existence. To preach the jospel to every creature is our bounden luty. To teach all men to j.ive purer lives ihould be the aim and effort of every ihurch. And to the millions of Americans vho are strangers to the wonderful love >f our Redeemer we owe a duty in the lischarge of which we should find our greatest pleasure. Yes, indeed, there is need for the A. R. ?. C. and there is a field fro:n which a rich larvest should be gathered, if we do our luty. If the A. R. P. C. has an object which is ligher and holier and purer than that of ighting the holiest inborn human emoions; i:f it would not deny the prayers and lie devotions of pious hymn singers; then here is a groat and mighty work for us to )erform, a work -which is of such magnlude that the mind may neither comirehend it nor descrilje it by human M)unds, and thero is a fearful rosponsibilty as well as a dreadful accountability iwaiting us, if we neglect the work of tryng to impress our glorious religion upon >thers who are wanderers aad strangers to he salvation which our Rcdoemer offers ;o all. The light against singing hymns is rorse than useless. Such a course Is billing the church, as is evidenced by the acts which are furnished in the tragic end if so many enterprises upon which the hurch has entered with such high hopes .rid with such expectant reasons for the elief that we could succeed in restricting hesingin?in public worship the hymns rhich have blessed and comforted so nany contrite and penitent hearts, and rhich have encouraged them in hope be- ! rond the grave. Who would deny devout icople the comfort that comes from the ingingof either "Jesus, lover of my soul," >r "Rock of Ages?" , If the object of the A. R. P. C. is to pro- i note tho welfare, the purity and tin; weetness of the lives and to save the ouls of the people, then there is an inaxiressible need not only for its continued xistence, but there is a divine command or the exercise of all the energy which :s members may possess. Its mission hen would bo of vital concern, its eld of work would bo as broad as the 1 orizon, and its objects and aims would e so high as to make us akin to Hiin who ied that ive might live. If the chief object is to teach the people 5 say "Sabbath" when the calendar day ; meant, and if the main object and aim f the church is to deprive people of the acred or devotional pleasure of singing ymns. then its existence is fruitless and ; might just as well go out of business ow as to lo forced to give up a little latei n. "Sabbath" is the sacred institution rliicli we are commanded to keep holy, ur Sabbath is on Sunday. For this rea3n we teach Sabbath School on Sunday. . When I hear an educated man speaking 1! the Sabbath, when he means Sunday, think he is presuming on my ignorance. \ i'hen I hear author say "Sabbath" on imilar occasion, lie is simply exposing is own ignorance. It is the institution nd not the day of the woek, that is the abbath. The colossal monument that has been aiscd over the one hundred and twentyIve dead churches, as enumerated above, urnisnes an tne neeaeu prooi tnat mere s bad management somewhere, and that re should profit by experience and try to 1 ind better jv more practical methods. If this is not true, then opposition to lymns meets with no responsive echo in he great and loyal human heart of this rlorious Southland. Let us sing: all the Psalms that we may. , iiid lot others siny hymns or Psalms to heir very heart's content. If we can inluee them to sing nothing worse than ivmi)6 our crown of glory wiil be great, nd our inheritance will be much. To subirdinate the work of our Saviour to the ighting of hymn singing is to neglect cur luty, and to enter upon a thankless and ruitless warfare. As men and women of oinmon sense, $ve should not exclude rom our church Christians for no greater ifl'ense that of singing hymns. The world night say that the hymn-singers would neasurc up to the best standard of the I'.salm-slngers. I believe that all denom. nations, extent a vcrv few Presbyterians. ;iri? hymns. To reduce our work and our nllucncv l?y trying to run counter to the est sentiment of the human heart, is srror. The experience of a hundred years ihould teach us at least some of the simile truths.
