It would be folly to remove the in stitution from an environment of such friendly interest and farsighted vis ion into a county where it would be lost among the penal, educational and eleemosynary institutions already es tablished therein. Whoever originated the suggestion for removal must surely have been ignorant of the situ ation, for the suggestion should be humiliating to every South Carolin ian who is patriotic and fair minded.

The new king, noting the rapid Increase of the Israelites, counseled the exercise of prudence let when war broke eot they -the enemy, and fight against the Egyptians. “One *bf~the methodr^td - curtail this Increase was to enslave the people. Falling in that, an edict was issued that every male child should be drowned. While the oppres sion of God’s people was heading up, God was providing a deliverer. Moses, that deliverer, was first trained at bis mother’s knee, then at Pharaoh’s court and finally under God’s immediate hand In the desert. 1. The Lord Spoke to Moooa From tho Burning Bush (Exod. 3:1-6). It was while keeping the flock of his father-in-law In the desert that the Lord appeared to Moaes In the vision of the horning trash. This bush, en veloped In flakes, yet unconsumed, symbettsed th« people of God en- swathed In the very fire of God, or God dwelling In the midst of an elect people. Moses stopped aside to be hold this strange sight and was tanght tho essential lesson of the proper ap proach to God. The Lord did not leave him long In suspense. He told him he was the God of his fathers, the Covenant God. Aa soon as hq knew It eras God speaking to him, he kid his face. II.

Miami, Fla., Jan. 13.—William Jen nings Bryan today - announced the name of Dr. A. A. Murpihee of Gaines ville, president of the University of Florida, as the Florida candidate he would support for the Democratic nomination for president. Mr. Bryan’s statement follows: ^“56 .tad-c ii’.C'gr.tc al convention, I shall present the name of Dr. A. A. Murphee, presi dent of the University of Florida, as a candidate for the Democratic nomi nation for the office of president. There are a number of Floridians whose names have been mentioned and who are deserving of consider ation in this connection, such as Senator Fletcher, Governor Hardee and Judge Nathan Bryan. I would be glad to support any of them but I believe that just at this time Dr. Murphee possesses more points of ad vantage and less points of attack than any other of the persons whose names have been mentioned. “He is a rare combination of intel lect and heart; he is a splendid execu tive, as is shown by the success of the university under his manage ment; and he is a Democrat, both in sentiment and in manner. He ia dry, and progressive and sound on eco nomic questions. His popularity will grow as he becomes known. “I shall discuss his merits more fully at some future time; all I mean to do now is to suggest bis name for consideration. It will not hurt the state university to have the light turned on the merits of its distin guished president.” . .

He realized his Insufficiency lor this task, Moses did not refuse to go, but pled his difficulty before the Lord. ~ God answered this difficulty by assuring him that He would be with him. The token of His presence would be His worship with the people of Israel on ountaln. , __ inf l/in?frui & 'Z2 Understand Moses’ Relationship to God (vv. 18, 14). Moses knew how on- willing they were to acknowledge him as their deliverer 40 years before, filnce God reveals Himself under a new name as He assumes a new relationship to His people, Moses Inquired as to What that new relationship would be, and Hie corresponding nsme. The Lord promptly met this difficulty re vealing to him a name different in many respects from all others previ ously given. This new name Is, *T Am.” Tlds name Is from tho Hebrew word, “to be." It Indicates (1) God’s self-existence—the One whoM very na ture It la to be—the cause of all be ing. (2) His self-sufficiency. He said, "I Am That I Am.” Since God Is the unique One, He could not go outside of Himself to explain Hhneelf; (8) His unchangeebleneas. What He al ways was and Is, He evermore shall be. 8. Unbelief on the Part of the Peo ple (Exod. 4:1). This difficulty the Lord met by supplying him with credentials which could not be gainsaid. He was given the power to perform supernat ural wonders (Exod. 4:2). 4. Lack of Eloquence (Exod. 4:10). This difficulty the Lord met by pro viding an assistant in the person of his brother Aaron. Moses was to be in the place of God to Pharaoh and Aaron was to be his prophet (Exod. 7:1, 2). REGULAR MEETING OF CAMPBELL LODGE WHAT no i. P. a JEANS /f. .
