J=n CHILDREN'S DAY. j< 1? Was Observed at Bachman Chapel? I ' Fine Exercises by the Children Ji Ul 11 1UICI \ Special to The Herald and News. (Prosperity, Aug. 30.?Last Sunday |J was an ideal day so far as the weather; goes. It was also an off day among j the churches of this community except i < at Bachman c apel. ] For the past several weeks our j Bachman chapel people have been i ^ looking forward for the fifth Sunday 1 in August, as this was the day desig- ; nated to celebrate what is known as l "Children's day." i It was our good pleasure to be pres- e ? j ; i^ ~ J ? eui ami iLuugit? wiiu u-Jt; cuuuieu, <tb well as our friends and relatives. Not long after the exercises began, < the church was filled/to its fullest ca- \ pacity anci we were told that only b*t about half the people could get in the 11 church. j Prmaria "Little Mountain Prosnftritv 1 and Newberry were all represented, j1 and we also noticed several from Co- ] iumbia present. i ] The exercises began at 10:15 a. m., j < with Mr. Geo. I. Kinard, the superin-1 < * tendent, wTho presided over the meet- j < ing with honor and credit to bimself < and the school. i; The devotional exercises were con-! ducted by T. J. Wilson and the pro- j < gram was carried out to perfection as {, was published in The Herald and News 1 oAast Fridav. To sav that everv bov'. " ! i and girl acted well ti:eir part would 1. toe expressing it in a 'very mild form, j ^ It is gratifying to the writer to see: 1 such marked improvement in their -. church work generally among this lit- , tie congregation. ! The pastor, Rev. Y. von A. Riser,! ^ together with his devoted wife, deserve . much praise for their untiring faithfulness and zealous work they are do- i ing for this little floc?. i" A+ tV?o <>nnr>]iifiion thA mrvrninp <=>x ercises the superintendent requested. JpF*" that all who had baskets to bring them to the table and assured all present a f:earty welcome. 1 After the contents of the baskets had ! been spread upon the table there wasj1 a bountiful repast for all. i1 * - - - . _Ji p but tnis was not me conclusion 01 the service. At 1:30 as many as could { conveniently be seated reassembled in the church and service was reopened ( with prayer by Mr. J. A. C. Kibler. Col. E. H. lAull and Mr. G:arley Barre, the superintendent of educa- { Hnn bar* hppn invito to sneak, who 5 were both present. Col. Aull was the first speaker in- ftroduced and said that he always felt an embarrassment to speak on such ( occasions, or at least felt a kind of un- * worthiness. He said he was not going to preach a sermon, but would take 3 a text. He selected for his text "More confidence and love among our people i at large." T at we must teach that j our~lr.es stand for mc V than monev 1 i and we must cultivate a higher and more noble opinion of one another than to think we are only as honest as , the laws and courts make us. So many laws have been passed that it is a c hard matter to obey ail of U em. The only remedy to restore a more . ? /\ + V> n*? + r\ o n_ i COIlIKUIlg Ictitll iii catu vjtJ-ici is iu ay* ply one remedy, "love.". And so soon as we become lovers of one another the seemingly impossible becomes possible for these thousands of years has I not been the history of kindness,, but of selfishness. p We make by our distrust the thieves,; burglars and mcenaiaries ana Dy our courts and jails we keep them so. i t i I wish I could give a rull account of j Mr. Aull's speech, for it was full of t good thoughts. He laid much stress 1 upon the importance of our getting out c . of this dreadful fcabit of selfishness and apply a little more self restraint, and if we could only just stand aside \ and watch ourselves go by, and think,5 \ of ourselves as "he" instead of "I." LV Mr. Barre was the next speaker. His line of thought consisted of the im- J portance of a better system of train- ^ ing among the young in every circle of life and such a system was being t organized and put into practice throughout our cf:urchland. Mr. Barre's speech was also full of j r goo<f thoughts and we are sure made j / a good impression upon his hearers. ( S In fact he is a young man of bright I intellect and a bright future await?; ^ him. JThe're were t!-ree or four other short j I talks made which were caught on the wing. The pastor, Mr. Jno. Coisins, s _Cr., and T. J. Wilson being the speakers. Mr. Cousins told of the origin of the Bachman Chapel Sunday school, a wt:ich was news to almost the entire congregation. Mr. Cousins said that shortly after he came into this coun- j try, 43 years ago, he lived near thei home of Micajah T. 'Epps, deceased, j and there being no Sunday school in j that section he organized one in the j K home of Mr. Epps. So from this grew I the present Bachman Chapel church.! q PBl Before closing, I must make mention J of the splendid music furnished by the: ? L ctoir, and I believe that this was not. i y:'.y a day of p'.eanr ?, but also a day ! Df profit, which is to be long remem-1 Dered by all those present. Let us have more Children's days. Ihey are helpful to both young and rid. T. J.

Mr. Stewart was one of the members of the thi~d group of the flying squadron cf America which visited every j State in the union in behalf of nationwide prohibition. It will be remem- j bered by many of the visit of the; squadron to Columbia last February, at whico time the largest temperance meeting was held in the State at that time, when Mr. Stewart and ex-Govrenor Hanley spoke. Mr. Stewart begins his itinerary in South Carolina August 2?3rd and will speak in more than forty towns and cities in twenty days in behalf of State-wide prohibition. Mr. Stewart is a speaker o! | national reputation and is credited with being one of the best posted men along prohibition lines on the American platform today, as he has given many years to the study of the facts, in the case and is very forcible in his arguments, and his coming to the State at this time will be of great value in helping to increase the majority for State-wide prohibition. Every voter sJ ould avail himself of this rare opnortunitv and hear Mr. Stewart when te comes ro Newberry. Reedy River Association.

"YOUTH LEADS THE WAY." How 1,200 Boys Added $20,000,000 to the Wealth of Ohio. In tr:e September American Magazine Stanley Johnson begins a series of articles entitled, "Youth Leads the Way," in which he will report many liew and wonderful facts about the developments in agriculture recently made in this country by boys and girls A suggestion 01 me iremeuuuus contribution made by the youth of America is to be found in the following J brief extract taken from Mr. Jo'-nson's i article: "Twelve hundred boys In the summer of 1914 added $20,000,000 to the productive wealth of the State of Ohio This was their response to the call for i Tnoin Thpv wptp thp corn club bovs oi I nvly. ^ ? jtfce Buckeye State. They raised the | average yield of corn per acre from 3c 1 bushels to 81, a gain of $20,000,000 a year to the State," says A. P. Sanders president of the Ohio Agricultural commission. "I have chosen this instance because it illustrates the need of help, the awakening, and the way the people oi O:.io showed their appreciation. The business men^of the State went deep into their pockets and sent the entire twelve hundred boys to Washington, to New York city, and later gave them a trip to the big Panama show at San Francisco.

"But Ohio is not alone in this economic affliction; it is nation-wide. And the young generation, between the ages of ten and eighteen, in an allover-the-nation, splendidly-organized club movement, under the direction of the United States department of agriculture, is going to pull the country up and out of its dilemma." Says Automobiles Are Making Farm Life More Attractive. Farm and Fireside, the national farm paper published at 'Springfield, Ohio, has been offering prizes for t):e best letter entitled, "What's an Automobile Worth?" In the current issue t)ie prize winning letters are published. Following is an extract from one of these letters: "By this speedy, tireless helper you have a bigger and better market for butter, eggs, poultry, fruit, vegetables, all the smaller products of the farm, and you don't need to kill a whole day going to town either. The boys can go to see moving pictures of the war, hear a concert by Sousa's band, or can see the State league ball game, when the work is not too pressing. "The old homestead has become the most attractive place on earth for both the boys and the -girls. The old folks are twenty years younger, and spruced up like young folks. They were going to retire to the city, but thought better of it when they bought the car." rr? About five-sevenths of the Bulgarians are engaged in agriculture, most of them being small proprietors, holding from one to six acres. t | Opera Ii Tues.
