New York, Jan. 2.-"I wont to Franco to 'load a hand' and they took a leg." He was a big lad from a Middle Western farm, the American soldier who called out this jest to cheer his neighbor in the sick ward of the Em press of Britain, the first transport to arrive here with "litter eases" from the American hospitals in France. "That ia just a sample of the n?vor failing humor of these boys, rising abovo suffering, above helplessness," said Miss Maude Kellara, chief nurse on the big vessel, as she came ashore a few days ago. "All tho way over they yearned for a sight of the old girl In tho harbor," she continued, "yet when we came up tho bay aud none of them could get on deck to hail the Statue of Liberty aa we passed, there were .10 com plaints. "This is tho spirit now, but I'm afraid of tho future," said Miss Kel lara, who was superintendent of nur ses at the Colorado Training School before she entered the army service. She urged women to prepare them selves for their part in tho reconstruc tion period, not lu the devastated re gions of Europe-whose people, she said, preferred to handle the problem themselves-but here at home. "There ls plenty of reconstruction work for the woman who wants to help," she asserted. "I'm afraid our enthusiasm ls going to spend itself after a yead or so-just about the time our wounded soldiers are begin ning to feel only bitterness at the thought of 'the missing leg.' Then they will need tho women. I don't know just what the women will be culled upon to do, but their work will turu up. The boys will need their enthusiasm and sympathy then more than now."

Leaves St. Andrew's Church, Char leston, for Synodlcal Datlos. (News and Courier, Dec. 28.) "For nearly three quarters of o, score of years Rev. M. O. G. Scher er, D. D., has served, as pastor of St. Andrew's Lutheran church," said a member of his congreatlon. "His work there has been success ful, and In the performance of it he has come in contact generally with the people of the entire community. In all mattera of interest for the de velopment and advancement of the best things In the community, while unassuming and unpretending, ho haB boen nevertheless a potont fac tor. "His public (discourses show thought and careful preparation, and in the farewell services arranged for him, to bo held to-morrow afternoon at 5.30 in old St. John's Lutheran church, many in Charleston other than those Immediately connected with the Lutheran churches will have an opportunity to testify to their ap preciation of his work and worth, which has been so recently and so conspicuosly recognized in his choice, at the great merger convention In New York, as tho general secretary of tho United Lutheran Church in America. In tho preparation of the papers which led up to tho union of three of the most Influential Luther an church synods in this country, tho pen of Dr. Scherer played a conspic uous part, and his election to the secretaryship was but a timely recog nition of that fact. "Besides this, at least ono notable public utterance on the floor of tho merger convention, directly testify ing thereto, emanated from one of the giant minds of tho Lutheran church, in the person of Dr. Thoodoro E. Schmank, of Lebanon, Pa., who referred In a most flattering way to the value of Dr. Soberer's services In the preparation of papers necessary for the merger, displaying ready fa miliarity with church history and doctrine." The . lea of the farewell service was first suggested by the Rev. George J. Gonawarc, D. D., pastor of St. John's, who, as a delegate In New York, witnessed the high re gard In which Dr. Scherer ls hold by 1 is co-workers for the merger, and it is considered fitting that this service fchould be held tn St. John's, the old est Lutheran church In the city. The I as to rs of St. Johannes' and St. Mat thew's and the representatives of St. Barnabas' have promptly fallen in with the suggestion. From the side of the municipality a greeting will be brought by Mayor T. T. Hyde, and from the churches of the city by Rev. John Kershaw, D. D., rector of St. Michael's Episcopal church, and Rev. Alexander Sprunt, D. D., pas tor of the First (Scotch) Presbyterian church. Besides these, Rev. H. J. Black, pastor of St. Johannes' Luth eran church and president of tho South Carolina Synod; Rev. W. A. C. Mueller, pastor of St. Andrew's Lutheran church and Rev. Geo. J. Gongaware, D. D., pastor of St. John's Lutheran church will be present to take part In the services. - Flat Shoals School Following ls tho honor roll of Flat Shoals Graded School for the month ending December 20, 1918: First Grado-Lola Whitehead 90.
