said, "are responsible for the gambling
that is going on in Yorkville,
because they set the example."
L Maintaining an unforgiving spirit is
V another cause of backsliding, the
evangelist continued. The man who
proiesses Christianity and maintains
an unforgiving spirit is a liar, says
God. I tell you the man who has
malice in his heart and maintains his
name on the church books is a walk4S
ing liar.
Harboring unclean thoughts and
desires tends to backsliding, Mr. Ham
said. That kind of thing will lead a
man away from communion with his
God. Backsliding begins in a man's
hpn rt
In pointing' out evidences of back-1
sliding, Rev. Mr. Ham said that when
a man began to lose his interest in I
and respect for thte word of God;
when he was more satisfied to read
the papers on Sunday than he was to
read the Bible, that man is fast on
the road to a spiritual wreck.
Growing fondness for worldly
amusements is another evidence.
There are people in this audience tonight,"
declared the evangelist, "who
* have spent more on the picture >how
* in the last year than they have in the
work of God in five years."
My friends, said Mr. Ham, I am
telling you straight from the should#er
of your short comings There is
no doubt that God is needed badly in
Yorkville. What I am saying to you
is in a spirit of love and prayer that
you will get right with God. I tell
you that if you are satisfied with your
condition that you are in a bad condition.
What the world needs is more
preachers to tell the people of their
sins.
Those of you who make all manner
of excuses to your pastor for not attending
prayer meeting, are backsliders.
Discontent with your pastor
and the conduct of the church are
evidences. Backsliders become faultfinders.
Most of the church memebrs
of this town are a bunch of
"mollycoddles" like that.
I want you people to see yourselves
and wake up. You are dead and don't
^ know it. You are like the man who,
* having become drunk, came home
with some limburger cheese in his
^ pocket. He sat by the fire and the
odor of the cheese soon began to fill
the room. The man went to sleep.
His little son came into the room and
rinding his father asleep ana a norri^
ble odor pervading the room, ran to
? his mother and exclaimed, "Ma, pa's
dead and don't know it."
There are two words which I have
asked God to give me a clearer conception
of. They are "eternity" and
"lost." Backsliders have no conception
of either of these. What this
congregation needs to do tonight is to
grasp the awful meaning of these
two words, to realize their condition
and to repent. Although you may
have the reputation of being Christians
you are not living up to your
profession.
The cure for backsliding is repentance,
reform and renewal of your
covenant with Christ. It is up to you.

Ashe Wins Suit
Chester Reporter. Oct. 21: At Lancaster.
Tuesday, Mr. W. N. Ashe, who
sued the Southern railway for being
ejected from a train in this city in
January, 1913, while en route to the
corn show, damages being asked for
to the amount of $3,000, was awarded
$500 actual damages and $1,000
punitive damages. A motion for a new
trial was made and will be argued
during the term.
Getting Exhibit Ready.
County Demonstration Agents Jno.
R. Blair and A. A. McKeown are in
Columbia getting York county's exhibit
in the state fair next week in
shape. While the York county exhibit
at the state fair last year was
one of the most attractive and complete,
it is expected that the showing
this year will be far superior to all
* previous efforts. Miss Minnie Lee
^ Garrison, York county Canning club
agent, is also in Columbia getting
the Canning club exhibit in place.
Cotton Belt Will Exhibit.
Among the numerous schools which
will have exhibits of their work at the
^ state fair next week is the Cotton
Belt school near Yorkville. The pupils
of this school have built a large
table which they will place on exhibition
as a sample of the kind of wood
work they are being taught to do.
Many of the pupils of this school have
become expert in the making of
chairs, desks, book-racks and other
things. It is said that the work of
the Cotton Belt school in this regard
is superior to that of any other school
in York county.
Traffic Resumed Over Catawba.
Supervisor Thos. W. Boyd said yes
terday that traffic had been resumed
over the bridge on the Catawba river
which fell into the water several
weeks ago, carrying Contractor Z. V.
Bradford and several workmen with it
into the stream. "While the bridge is
fefc passable at present," said the super
visor, "we have not done all the work
on it that we intend to do. Were a
big freshet to come along now it
might wash the bridge away. We intend
to make it one of the strongest
and safest bridges in the county."

" Messrs. R. E. McClure, E. X. Stephenson,
Lindsay Templeton, K. X.

went to the home of Mr. Robert Whitesides
above Bethany on Monday afternoon
and the hunt started from there,
a number of citizens of that portion
of the country taking part. Two foxes
were caught but not killed. It is said
that foxes are plentiful in that section
this fall, a number having been turned
loose in the sping.

Much Booze For Fort Mill.
Fort Mill Times, Thursday: Although
it would seem a little early
for the "soaks" of the community
to be laying in their annual supply
of Christmas booze, the whiskey receipts
at the local express office
during the last few days are said to
have been almost equal to those
usually arriving for the few days im>
mediately preceding the Christmas
holidays. The Times is further informed
that of the 29 money orders
issued by the local postoffice one day
recently, 23 of the orders went to
Richmond whiskey houses.

of age, having been born in Anderson

As Security.
The idea is prevalent that our farmers,
t( secure the Best Price for their
Cotton, must market it gradually. The
Farmers and the Public Generally
MUST KNOW that their Banks CAN
and WILL HELP THEM. The mere
knowledge of this fact, it is suggested,
may be effectivo in sustaining the
price of cotton.
To obtain special consideration in
the Interest Rate, it is required that
Loans be based upon
INSURED, WAREHOUSED COTTON.
Along this line, "The BANK OF

Look Before You Leap
| DURING the past six or eight
I years I" have frequently heard the
statement made that people had learned
a great deal more about Life In,
surance than they used to know, and
t that the Individual who had made up
his mind to insure his life was pretty
apt to Look Before He Leaped. My
observation is that "some" people
have learned that all legal reserve or
so-called "old line" companies, ARE
NOT "About the tame. They have
learned that all of them DO NOT treat
all of their members in the same way,
and that all have not records extending
over a long series of years of a
Square Deal to each policy holder,
whether he knew what was his dues
- under his contract or not?such a rec
ord, for instance, as the Mutual Benec
fit HAS. It is a fact that the average
j buyer of Life Insurance buys from an
Agent who "goes after him," regardless
of what company the Agent represents,
or the nature of the contract
1 he sells. Comparatively few seem to
understand that while there is little
difference in the net cost of Insurance
r in any of the old, established, legal reserve
companies, there is a vast difference
in the Contracts. In view of the
fact that the individual who buys the
insurance "Pays the freight," it would
seem to be only common, business
i sense for him to "Look Before He
Leaps," even though his own brother
was the Agent who first caused him to
I become interested in life Insurance.
The Mutual Benefit is recognized all
over the United States as being In a
Class By Itself?the One that has Always
Done the Most for Its Members,
and I shall be pleased to show YOU
if YOU care to be shown.
