way. If you .see men and women
around you doing wrong. rebuke them
MRS gently. Don't upbraid them. Try to
penetrate their spirits and help them
p to drive that wrong away.
Christians are like unto light, one
of the most beautiful symbols on
earth, said Rev. Black. Jesus Christ
is the principal spiritual light of the
world. Light is beautiful considered
_ in Itself. Christian life is beautiful.
Light is attractive. 'hristian lives
should attract others. "Christians
arc you attracting men and women to
God by the conduct of your lives?"
If we love God we will obey his
commands. He himself says so. One
of God's commands is that we must
let our light shine. Don't hinder your
inHivi.tuni lights from shining. If you
don't hinder It by the way you live tmd
talk, it will shine. For instance, we
don't want to bring reproach upcn our
characters by questionable business
transactions. We Christians should
not devote too much time to worldly
amusements. We should be missionaries.
Most of us think of the name
"missionary" as being a person who
m must go to Africa or Asia or some oth^
er foreign land to teach. The word
missionary means "visitor." Each
Christian could and should do mission
work here.
"Cut why should we let our lights
shine?" asked the minister. One reason
is because God says so. That
should be enough. His command is
imperative. How many of us really
think well of Jesus? How many of
us are not more interested in our own
personal advancement than in advancing
the kingdom?
It is a great honor to let our
Christian lights shine before men, declared
Rev. Mr. Black. Your sun and
mine is setting. Unless we go out
now and tell our b, hers and sisters
of Jesus and his love, we will have no
other time so to do. There is a great
need in the world that our lights
should shine. We should let them
shine in order that the many pitfalls
of the devil might be exposed and
men and women saved. We should let
4 our lights shine that we should prove
stumbling blocks to none. If at the
Judgment day you And your wife or
mother, or father, or others lost because
of your conduct in the matter of
salvation, because you didn't do your
duty, how will you feel? "Have you
men and women ever showed any one
the way to salvation?" inquired Dr.
* Black. "Have you ever acted as a
'Sky Pilot' for some erring brother or
sister? But you ask, 'How can I show
them the way?' It is simple. Just
take a big dose of love. Live for those
oH/mi* vnn make vour lives an exam
pie of Christian sincerity. If your life
is clean and pure and bright, keep it
so. If your hearts and characters are
besmirched, ask forgiveness of God
and he will make them clean.
Treat all men alike. Deal with them
lovingly and peacefully. Oftentimes
we are willing to overlook the shortcomings
of those who have a little influence,
socially or financially, while
we do not hesitate to come down on
the poor white man or darkey. But
we Christians should use our influence
for the good of all alike.
By letting our lights shine in business,
religion, the home and everywhere,
we will obey the commands of
our God and advance his kingdom.
Dr. Black preached last night and
L this morning to large congregations
L and will preach tonight at 7 o'clock.
An interesting feature which was beV
_ gun yesterday in connection with the
services are several prayer meetings
which are held afternoon at 4
B o'clock in various homes in Yorkville.

Rock Hill High schools, and Manager
E. R. Guard of the Rock Hill Gas.
Works, are responsible for the establishment
of a cooking school for
negroes which is now going on in the
Mount Prospect Baptist church, colored,
in Rock Hill. There are now
about 135 colored men and women attending
the school which is held afternoons
and nights with a competent
teacher in charge. The domestic
school is the only one of its kind in
the state and very likely the only one
in the south. Rock Hill housekeepers

school and are sending their cooks
at every opportunity.
Wheat Sowing.
"There will be more wheat sowed in
our immediate neighborhood this year
than there was last year,'' said Mr. H.
B. McDaniel of the Mount Zion section,
who was in Yorkville yesterday.
"Last year," said Mr. McDaniel, "the
people were unable to get in as much
wheat as they really wanted to sow.
Many of them got the ground ready
and had the seed on hand; but the rain
set in about that time and they failed
to get the seed in the ground. But
they are not going to miss it this time,
if they can help it. I know of several
people around me who have not been
sowing wheat before, but who will sowsome
this year." Mr. McDaniel said
the oat crop is looking fine.
Turner-Goforth.
A surprise marriage of last Wednesday

Rev. Mr. Kirby in the presence of
quite a number of friends of the young
people. Mr. Goforth is the son of Mr.
and Mrs. Preston Goforth of the Bethany
community, and is a young man of
fine character and integrity who has
many friends in the community in
which he resides. His bride is a
popular young lady of the Grover
community. Immediately after the
ceremony, Mr. and Mrs. Goforth came
to the home of the groom's parents
where they will reside.
The Score Was Tied.
The Hickory Grove and Boiling
Springs High school basketball teams
played a good game on the Hickory
Grove ground yesterday, and although
the Boiling Springs team had little
trouble in defeating Hickory Grove by
a score of 26 to 0, when the two teams
met at Boiling Springs two weeks ago,
they could not repeat the trick yesterday
and the game resulted in a tie?
17 to 17. Following was the line-up
of the two teams in yesterday's contest:
Boiling Springs?Bailey, right
forward; McSwain, left forward; Allen,
center; Green, right guard; Lattimore,
left guard; Hickory Grove?R. White,
right forward; Brandon, left forward;
Frank Quinn, center; L. Quinn, right
guard; D. White, left guard. Allen,
center of the Boiling Springs team,
piled up 14 points of his team's score,
while Robert White was responsible

teams in its history and is anxious
to secure a number of games with
high school teams. Frank Quinn is
manager of the team.

SERVICE-That's It
It is a well known fact that when it
comes to Fire Insurance, there is no
difference in the rate charged per
$100 by all the reputable companies,
but it is a fact that the rate charged
by agents who are not on the job?the
kind who are writing insurance principally
for the commission?could
often be reduced materially if certain
changes were made and the agent who
knows, and is not in the business solely
for commissions, will, at least advise
his clients how a rate can be reduced.
Service of this kind is and has
always been my specialty, and I have
saved hundreds of dollars for my
clients. Some of them, in fact the
majority, have appreciated it, but some
have not. but I will continue the policy
because it is right. I do not ask for
business on any other ground than
value received. One of the most serious
handicaps of the business is that
after a minimum rate has been secured
and policies issued correctly, the
novice can issue a policy just as well
as the expert, ana some insurees win
give him business from various
motives.
MUTUAL BENEFIT INSURANCE
What has been said of Fire Insurance
above does not apply to Life Insurance.
No agent can give you as
much for your money in Life Insurance
as I can in a Mutual Benefit
Policy and I can prove this claim to
j your satisfaction if you will ask to
be shown. Wise people look before
they leap.

Warehoused Cotton
As Security.
The Idea is prevalent that our farmers.
u secure the Best Price for their
'ottoin must market it gradually. The
Farmers and the Public Generally
MUST KNOW that their Banks CAN
n.i WILL HELP THEM. The mere
knowledge of this fact, it is suggested,
may be effective 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
CLOVER will consider as favorable
security Receipts issued by the Bowli;
