CHRISTMAS CUBER IN SCHOOL. Mina McMAban Outlines Work and Study for December Days. Miss Anule McMahan, Supervisor of Rural Schools, has issued the fol lowing circular letter to the teachers of Oconee: Richland, S. C., Dec. 1, 1914. Dear Fellow Teachers Now that the Christmas season is drawing near, we are confronted with the problem of arousing tho Christ mas spirit, the joy of loving and giv ing. Tell the children Christmas stories; read poems aloud to them; let them learn poems and memory gems. If your school has a library you will find material for this study, and there aro excellent selections In the children's readers and .anguage books. Have the children learn the beautiful story of the birth of Christ as told in Luke 2:8-20. This is not extra work, but should iorm a part of reading and language lessons. Teach some Christmas song and let the children sing every day. Simple gifts that will be appreci ated by the parents can be made by the children; Christmas poems cop ied; some neat number work; cor rect spelling lessons, etc., may he made into booklets, Tho covers can be made of coarse, gray wrapping paper that you can get at any store. Sprays of holly, bells, stars or any thing suggestive of Christmas may be drawn on them. if the children have no cray?las ?md drawing paper, get two or three boxes yourself and let the childern use them. Twenty five cents v iii cover tho cost of ?.rayon and paper. lt' you cannot get this material conveniently, write to me at once and I will get it for you. Some bf you may be able to help the older children at the noon-hour. Work bags, laundry bags, newspaper bags, needle books, pincushions, match scratchers, whisk-broom hold ers, calendar backs and I askets are a few things that are easily made. There is no waste? of time for this work, and it instills in the children the Christinas spirit and the joy of giving. By all means xlecorate your school rooms. ? have been impressed hy the absence of decoration in the schools that are surrounded by the beauties of nature. Encourage the children to bring to school every day BOmetlllng that they have gathered on the way. Evergreens may he used for blackboard borders, and nothing is more cheerful than bolly. You will be teaching the children a when you open their beauties that surround of the Teachers' Asso )een called to meet at Walhalla on Saturday, December 5th. 1 hope that every teacher in the county can attend. Ask the trustee who lives nearest you to help you get to this meeting and come himself. Very sincerely. Your fellow-worker, ANN I io .MCMAHAN. Yeggmen Rob Safe at Duncan. Spartanburg, Nov. 2t>.-The post office safe in the store of A. M. Smith, at Duncan, S. C., a station on the main line Of thc Southern Rail way, ten miles west of Spartanburg, was robbed last night by yeggmen, who made a clean job and have got ten away with .their loot, amounting to $365 in stamps and money approx imating $235. Nitroglycerine was used, and though two distinct explo sions were heard dui lng the night by citizen1! of the place, the robbers were not disturbed in their operation and nothing was known of the rob bery until this morning, when Post master Smith opened his place of business. The post office authorities were promptly notified and have bad the co-operation of the authorities ot* both Spartanburg and Greenville counties during the day In their ef forts to get a trace of the robbers. At noon to-day two men, giving their names as Charles Brown and J. C. Ross, were arrested by Spartan burg ofllcers near Duncan, and are being held In the local jail under sus picion. The officers believe they may be "spotters" for the men who did the job. "Portland Ned," the famous yegg man, blow open a safe in the same post office several years ago and was convicted of the crime. Some Hig Foreign Business, St. Louis, Nov. 28.-Bids for 1, 700,000 flannel army shirts for Brit ish army soldiers were submitted by several St. Ixmls firms to-day. The contract will amount to more than $2,000,000, lt Is thought. An order for 7,000 sets of artillery harness, costing $175,000, was given to a St. Louis manufacturer to-day. Another firm announced to-nlgbt lt had just shipped 43,000 suits of underwear for army use to Amster dam und 12,000 blankets to Mexico. The European \S Sultan Proclaims "Holy War." Constantinople, Nov. 27.-Procla mation of a "Holy War," which first was announced abort ten days ago. was published hero to-day. lt is signed hy the Sultan and 28 Moslem priests, and calls upon every Moslem in the world to participate In a "holy war" against England, Kassia and Prance. Russians Ollieially claim Advantage. London, Nov. 29.-Latest official Russian announcements still claim advantage 'in the fighting in North ern, Poland, but deprecate exagger ated reports of their successes. Ger many declares officially that the Rus sian attacks have been repulsed and that German counter-attacks have been successful. The German Emperor bas joined Field Marshal von Hindenburg in the east to offer his advice and to encour age his troops. Enormous losses have been inflict ed on the Germans, according to the KL". ;*.??? ?I?it-rnwt, but no mention is made of th?j < .?.pture of German divisions, so fre ly claimed hy the Petrograd correspondent of London and Paris papers. Germans Fight to Escape Trap. Some days must elapse before this hattie, which promises to prove the most decisive of the war, is conclud ed. So far, all that is definitely known is that the German advance has been stopped. Some of the Ger man troops have been partly or whol ly surrounded, but they still are ' fighting stubbornly to break their i way through the Russian line?, ap parently to the nortVvurd, where they hope Jo join reinforcements from Thorn. In the battle before Cracow the I Russians claim decisive success. Dur ing the last week they took .10,000 prisoners in that region, which ls taken tn Retrograd to mean that Cracow will not bar the Russian ad j vance in Silesia from the south. Nip and Tuck in West. In the west the Germans, although making an occasional infantry at tack, seem content at present to bombard the allied positions with somewhat lighter guns than they have been using. This may mean either that they are sending troops and artillery to the east or that they are preparing a new attack against the allies. That the enterprise that failed in Flanders will not be repeated for the present seems probable, as tho allies have been allowed to capture some points of vt ntago around Ypres, pre viously cont lercd necessary to the 1 German plat.. There has been a minor and Insignificant attack near Arras. An interesting report from Field Marshal Sir John French, covering the pe.iod ol' the battle in Flanders and the days immediately preceding it, shows that this battle was ; brought about, first by the allies' at ' tempts to outflank the Germans, who countered, and then by their plans to ; move to the northeast to Ghent and Bruges, which also failed. After this the Gornn. .-> offensive began, with tho French coast ports as the object ive, but this movement, like those of the allies, mel with failure. Says German Losses Treble. Field Marshal French gives it as his opinion that the German losses have been thrice as great as those of the allies, and speaks optimistically of the future. To Re Taken With Snit. London. Nov. 29.-Renter's Retro grad correspondent sends an official statement which warns the public to observe caution in accepting rumors of a crushing Russian victory. The statement says the retreating Germans are offering desperate re sistance and the battle bas not been finished. The statement was issued by the Russian headquarters staff and deals with various rumors circulating on the scope of an alleged Russian vic tory between the Vistula and the j Warta rivers. War i ?eso me November mt. London, Nov. .10.-Germany ac knowledges that the Russian north ern army has |>enetrated into East j Prussia to a distance of 16 miles , southwest of Gumblnnon, which is ' about 20 miles west of the German border. I In Belgium, says the French offi cial statement, it Is the allies, and i not the Germans, who aro on the ; offensive. These two points ?food out in to day's nows from tho battlefields of Europe. Tho German officl il statement says that strong Russian forces attempted j surprise attacks on the fortifications , of Darkebmen, In East Prussia, and i that they were repulsed. Semi-official Information from Pe j trograd Is that operations along the Prussian front are turning to the ad vantage of the Russians, and that the Germans are retiring in disorder. J ar Day by Day Siege of Cracow Begun. Meanwhile the great battle in Rus sian Poland, between the Vistula and Warta rivers, continues without defi nite result. The German war ornee states that tho Russians were defeat ed in a battle south of the Vistula and that 4,500 mon wera captured. Further south, in C?llela, the Rus sians are said to have reached Cra cow and to have begun the siege of the city. An Italian correspondent at tho front states that Cracow is now being bombarded by heavy Rus sian siege guns, and that one of the suburbs is in Hames. Tho capture of this fortress has been one of the malu objectives of Russia's campaign against Austria, On the theory that, its fall, together wlCi th ait of Prze mysl, now under siege, would mean Russian ascendency In that part of Austria which lies to the north of tho Carpathian mountains. .Military critics in the capitals of tho allies, according to dispatches reaching London, are convinced that the Gorman invasion of Russian Po- j land bas suffered a check which only the most strenuous efforts of the Ger man commanders can save from de generating into disaster. A news report from Petrograd sets forth that the Germans, apparently Ignorant of the extent of the Russian opposition along the Vistula, or hold ing this opposition In contempt, threw heavy forces against the Rus sian center, leaving very thin lines of communication between their wings. This created a situation said to be without precedent in the history of military strategy. In the meantime tho resumption of the Russian offensive resulted in al wedge, dominated by Lodz, being thrust into the German center. If the Germans can bold their lines of communication with their wings In tact, the invaders may be able to withdraw. In tho view of British ob servers, without suffering disaster. Connans on Defensive. According to the French official statement, the Cern?an forces in Bel gium are on the defensive, and the allies have made progress "at certain points." Fighting continue? In thc Argonne, where, the French state ments assert, German attacks were repulsed. Opinions differ sharply as to the intentions of Germany concerning operations in the west. It is report ed that Germany is about to embark on a new offensive movement; that the Cern?an line, has been weakened perceptibly, and 'hat a new German army is being rushed into Flanders In view of these conflicting state ments it is impossible to discern even the probabilities of the near future. Prisoners Are Badly Frozen. Petrograd. Dec. 1.-The condition of Cern?an prisoners captured In tho region of Lodz is said to resemble that of the French troops during Na poleon's retrealt from Moscow. Many of them have frozen hands and feet. Reports from the front are that reinforcements sent for the army of (len. Mackensen near Lodz are taking up positions along the Vistula river, where the Cern?an resistance seems to have been least effective. The ap parent purpose of this move is to binder the Russian enveloping move ment until the main German column is extricated from the line which runs from St ry kow through Gzierz to Szadek. Semi-official reports from Galicia indicate that the Russian advance along the foothills of the Carpathian mountains has reached a point due south of Cracow, tims surrounding the city from tho northeast and south. Germans Resume Drive. Berlin, Dec. 1.-The following ofli cial announcement was given out in Berlin to-day: "In Fast Prussia and Southern Poland lt was generally (inlet yester day. In Northern Poland, south of the Vistula, our war booty was in creased stMl further as a result of ?the successes announced yesterday. "The number of prisoners taken by us bas been increased by about 9.500 men, and we have taken 19 more cannon. In addition, 2('? machine guns and numerous ammunition carts fell Into our hands." Latest reports from Russian Po land given out in Berlin indicate thal the Germans have resumed the exe cution of their plan to encompass thc Russian right flank and to force it back on the center, at the same time cutting off the Russians' communi cation with Warsaw. Austrians Retreat. Lemberg, Galicia, Dec. 1.- The en ergetic Russian advance is persist ently pushing back the Austrians into Cracow. Information reaching Lem berg from a trustworthy source is to the effect that tho Austrians are evac uating position after position, with very large losses. It Is stated that the Austrians' line of retreat is strewn so thickly with the dead that the Russians have not time to bury them. The cold is so severe that the bodies aro frozen. German jffieers aro In supreme command at Cracow. They aro plac ing machine guns, light artillery and wireless apparatus, it ls reported, on the cathedral and other historic edi fices, drawing tho fire of the Rus sians to these buildings.

Washington, Nov. 27.-Thc com mander of the port of Smyrna lays all the responsibility for the recent shots tired from Turkish forts upon the cruiser Tennessee's launch while entering the harbor to the "Indiffer ence of the launch's helmsman," who, it is claimed, did not heed the warn ings of the presence of mines.

On the rest of the front there ls noth ing to report." Tho official communication given out in the afternoon says that yes terday the enemy showed considera ble activity north of Arras. In Bel glum there was a lively exchange of artillery, but no Infantry attacks. Telegraphing from Amsterdam, the correspondent of the Central News stays the German front before Dixmude has begun a general retire ment. 10OTU ANNUAL CONFERENCE. (Continued from First Page.) R. S. Truosdnle, of Trinity church, Charleston, invited the next session of the South Carolina Conference to begin its new history lu that origina! cradle of South Carolina Methodism. This invitation was also unanimously a? copied. "t Conference Sunday." Sumter, Nov. 29.-There alwavs seems to he a more profound solem nity about the services of conference Sunday than ls produced by any other day. Many of tho Methodist preachers have trodden a thorny path of self-denial, of closest econo my, of most intense spiritual st reg gie, and they have been all looking forward to the worship and services of this day. Each one longs to. some signal expression of tho Divine love. Rev. P. S. Hensley conducted the love feast this morning at Trinity church. This unique service ls rarely held elsewhere than at confer ence. One after another the breth ren related Incidents of their per sonal experience in tho Christian life and warfare. The fact that this is the las! love feast of the old conference oe use ri the atmosphere to he charged with i tender pathos. Hut the fact of divis ion has been accepted with that calm philosophy of Christian resignation, which usually marks the life o( the Methodist preacher. The Bishop Preaches. At 10.45 Bishop Donny entered the pulpit, the love-feast adjourned, and the morning service was Introduced with that well known hymn, "O Happy Day." The grand piano and tho violin sweetly sounded the ? bords and a mighty volume of song, from more than 1,00t) throats, went swell ing up toward heaven. The bishop's theme was "Sowing and Reaping." (Gal. 0:7). "1 usc to say that 'I have a soul.' Rut I have long since seasod to uso that expression, because lt is no* true! 1 have learned that. I must not. confuse the terms 'I' and 'soul.' I 'have' a body; but I 'am' a soul. To body belong extension and Impen etrability, but to the soul belongs consciousness. The soul is a unity with multiplied powers. "We are free, whatever some folk may say. We are morally free. Our word 'whatsoever' indicates that freedom. You and I are to select tho seed which we sow. We may select the seed of corruption, or of incor ruption, and the harvest will be lu harmony with the seed of our selec tion. Man has never made any thing. He has simply used that which he found already made. We cannot make tho seed. Man may combine the elements of corn and form lt Into the shape of a grain of corn. Rut he cannot make lt glow. The moral quality of an act cannot be altered hy the changing of a word." The bishop Bimp'y and forceful y Illustrated this truth. "Confiscation -stealing.4' "Diplomacy - lying." "Bridge whist for a prize-gamb ling." "We cannot change the mor a) quality of an act hy juggling with the dictionary. Common divorce legalized adultery. The Legisla tu ie may legalize that awful sin, but they cannot moralize it. We are not to determine whether we will sow. We are sowing every day. And there are no casualties which can affect the harvest. Neither drought nor flood can hinder its development. "Some men say that the pardon of dod removes all the disabilities and consequences of sin. But that ls not so. A man gets on a debauch and itt a brawl, loses an eye. He repents and Cod pardons him. Does divine pardon restore the lost eye? No. 1 do not think that even Christian Sci ence undertakes that. Last, Day of Conference, Sumter, Nov. 30-The South Caro lina Conference of tho Methodist Episcopal Church, South, as lt has existed for 129 years, concluded Its last, session here this af tern MI. There was little busho o trans act. The several coup es made reports and new oonitmt tees for tho two conferences were named. J. Eu lier Lyon was elected treasu rer of the Upper South Carolina Con ference and Henry P. Williams, of Charleston, was elected treasurer for the South Carolina Conference. Rev. E. O. Watson continues as secretary of the South Carolina con ference and Rev. P. B. Wells was' elected temporary secretary of the Uppor Conference. Kev. Nettles I/oen.te<l. A matter which excited considera ble interest was a motion by Rev. A. H. Best and others to locate Rev. S. A. Nettles, on the ground of unac ceptability. Rev. S. F. Beatty and Rev. P. P. Kilgo and others defended Mr. Nettles, while Revs. A. H. Best, J. S. Harley and J. C. Chandler sup ported 'the motion for location. The motion prevailed and Mr. Nettles ls no longer a member of the confer ence. Appointments Are Made.
