A Song of Memory
?In the, tumult of cities she blips
v away
At the touch of the tender quenn:
My half cloned petals expand
At the touch of the tender green:
For she comes from the land of
youth,
Kre I drank of the fount of tears;
With thp gold of the jasmine upon
her brow, ?? ?
\ rid the light of the vanished years.
.She shed the rays of her sun-bright
face
When my soul was in deep eclipse,
And has blown the dust of ifty
thoughts afar,
With the rose breath of her lips,
She led mo back to the hills of home,
By Arcadian woods and streams,
And has clothed the grace of the
days gone by
In a vesture born of dreams,
For she comes from the land of
Youth,
I drank! of the fount of tears
With the gold of the jasmine upon
her brow
And the light of tho vanished years.

A Tribute to Th? li?te Mr*. ScKr?k
Dr. A. T. Jameson, of Greenwood,
one t^me pastor of the ( auuicii H i p
ti#t Church and atiU lovingly remem
bere<l here, in writing to a friend
expressing his sorrow in the death
of Mrs. M, ? K. Schrock enclosed the
following extract from a sermon de
livered by him the Sunday before
?the person referred to was Mrs.
Schrock and he did not then know
of her illness.
"I have in mind as I speak a dear
friend, a venerable, lady now living
in the 80's, and of course in the even
ing of her life. She has never been
a Greek or Hebrew scholar and never
read a line of her Bible in the lan
guage in which it was*first written.
She did not in her early years have
the benefit of what we would today
call a first cJlaHS, education. She
would not be called a classical,, scholar,
It is doubtful if she ever read "The
Decline and Fall of the Roman Em
pire." And yet I have known few
people who were really better edu
cated in spiritual thing*. I would
place her interpretation of the Biblo
and her. comprehension of many of
its truths against the opinion of
most theological professors. Multi
tudes of people have been learned jn
the technical mechanics of the* old
languages and of Bible interpreta
tion who I believe would come far
behind her in general comprehension
of scriptural truth. At any rate I
would trust her general opinion on
such, matters. She has been educated
on the English Bible. Its plain mean
ing has been enough for her. Having
been devoted to it in reverent and
interested study for many decades, I
believe she has come into strength
and beauty of character thereby. The
beauty of the glorious word of God
has during the years operated t<5
make her beautifiil in character,
Judged by the standards that are
regnant in the scholarly world, she
would not *be called educated. And
yet she is hobly educated in the most
fundamental of the verities of life.
She has become an excellency from
a study of the word of God and by
the grace of God. She is an example
of multitudes, indeed of millions, who
have been taught v> chiefly in the
school of prayer and' in communion
with the plain word 6f tHt* English
Bible. She is one of the modern
proofs of . the divinity of'Christ and
of the power of his redeeming and
glorified grace. Why should We ap
peal so frequently to scientific proof
when such as she stand as infallible
and easily interpreted proofs of the
power of God to make an excellent
life? I place my venerable friend
high on the list of saints and feel
that while she would be the last
person in the world to, boast of ex
cellency in spiritual attainment she
would certainly testify with the
apostle Paul, "By the grace of God
I am what I am."
Missionary Society Meeting
The general meeting of the Metho
dist Missionary Society was held with
Mrs. B. G. Sanders on Tuesday after
noon, the Iiebekah DeLoache . circle
entertaining. A large and enthusias
tic assemblage of workers were
brought together on this occasion.
Mrs. Brown, the community nurse,
made an informal talk about her
work, enlisting the sympathy and
continued co-operation of the circles.
Quite an amount of business was
brought to completion, and plans for
future work were made. At the close
of the - meeting, tempting refresh
ments were served.
George Wittkowsky Honored
Friends in Camden were pleased
to hear of the distinct compliment
paid George Wittkokwsky by the
faculty' of the University of South
Carolina when he was made instruc
tor in English for the Freshman
class. This was indeed a compliment
and recognition not only of his in
tellectual ability but of his high
standing and character in the insti
tution as well.
