Power of Prayer
Doctor Strlcklelgh, the new minister,
was young and full of faith, hope
and charity, but he did not always
plan his speech with care.
One Sunday evening he said very
earnestly to his congregation; "Let
us pray Jhat we may have an attendance
of at least one hundred at our
next young people's meeting. And re
member that the prayer of faith Is always
answered."
Now, the next service did net bring
out one hundred persons, or anywhere
n^ar that number, but the young minister
looked cheerfully down upon the
faithful few.
"Friends," he said briskly, "there
aren't a hundred of us, but there are
thirteen, and that's one or two more
than I had counted on."?Los Angeles

"America Is like the new boarder.

GREAT |X>W COUNTRY BOOSTER
Brief Sketch of Life end Work of
James Henry Rice, Jr.
While he was horn In the up-coun
try, no man in South Carolina knows
the low-country better than Jaitfes
Ijfenry Rice, Jr., nor has anyone done
more to advertise and develop it. He
now live# at Wiggins, in Colleton
county, near the coast, and has lived
at Summerville, in this county; at
Conway, in Horry county, and in
Charleston. He has written and lectured
much on the resources and
possibilities of the low country of
South Carolina.
James Henry Rice, Jr., was born on
Kiverlands plantation, in Abbeville
ounty, and grew up there and at locust
Grove, being from boyhood the
shepherd of the plantation until he
read law in his father's office later at
Ninety-Swx. He entered the sophonore
class at South Carolina college
and in due time graduated, after
which he traveled extensively abroad.
Returning home he taught school at
Barnwell and Chester, being city superintendent
of school in both plates.
Following this he edited the Colonial
ecords in Columbia, and was successively
editor of the Columbia Evening
N<*ws and the "State, doing reportorial
work on the Register, and on the Atlanta
Journal in intervals.
Leaving the State in 1898, he broken
the world's record writing life insurance
for the Mutual Life of New
York.
From 1898 on he began a campaign
to develop Horry county and carried
it through "single-handed and ulone/'
as the citizens of Conway and of
Horry testified in a resolution passe^l
unanimously at a banquet given in
his honor September 19, 1925. This
has been called "the most remarkable
development of a single county known
in American annals." One outcome
has been Myrtle Bench, the biggest
project of the kind on the planet.
This work was done without compensation
of any kind.
He began work for the protection
of birds and other wild animals during
the first days of the twentieth
century with the Audubon society
of South Carolina and the National
Association of Audubon societies. In
arrying on this work he has lectured
from Washington to the Rio
Grande river, and west to the Rocky
mountains. He addressed almost
every college and university within
this wide domain. For many years
he was United States inspector of
birds.
Mr. Rice was the pioneer in bird
protection in every Southern state
and educated the people of the South
to a Ifi-oader andrbetter understanding
of what birds mean to mankind. All
the Southern states created departments
as a result of his teaching; the
bird protection is now taught in the
common schools.
As a worker for righteousness, he.
has lived in battle. He warred on
free range until he was outlawed by
the general assembly, though this
practice continues in defiance of law.
He proved that the coast was a healthy
region and that its uplands, long
considered barren, were the most
fertile soils in America.
As a oulmination of nearly thirty
years of effort, he addressed the State
Press association at Myrtle Beach in
July, 1924, on the South Carolina
coast, and woke echoes from end to
end of^the nation. That address WftS
made into a hook by the R. L. Bryan
Co., of Columbia, and has been sold in
every quarter of the globe, England,
France, Holland, Germany, Italy and
China being the largest buyers,
though many copies have gone t->
South Africa, Australia, New Zealand
and to many South American countries.
(When this book, "The Glories
of the Carolina Coast," appeared, the
Qcean highway took form and the Inland
Water route was revived and the
entire coast underwent- a revival.
Dr. W. J. McGlothlin, president of
Furman university, told the Greenville
Rotary club that this book was
worth a million dollars to South
Carolina. Its reading by Fkirman
students is compulsory.
Mr. Rice belongs to twenty-one scientific
societies, more than half of
them in the Old World; and he has
corresponded in ail civilised countries,
He is devoting titoA and energy to:
putting back the forests of the state,
planting the oyster beds, protecting
and increasing wild life, and to conserving
the water powers. All this
work Is done through the Conservation
Society of South Cafolina, organized
and chartered for the purpose.

Why Take The Chance?
Two laws in which the public si
large is interested were passed at the
recent session of - the general as*
sernbly. One increases the speed*
limit of automobiles from 35 to 45
miles an hour and the other requires
all vehicles travelling on the highways
to carry safety lights. The
penalty for violating either law is
Ine or imprisonment, or both. Fortyfive
miles an hour is fast enough for
any vehicle to travel, but with the introduction
of the high-powered cars
is is probable that the law will be observed
more in the breach than in
the spirit. However, in case of accident
the full responsibility rests
upon the driver of the automobile,
provided the automohile was exceeding
the speed limit at the time of the
Iaccident. On the other hand full responsibility
rests upon the driver of
a vehicle, if it so happens that the
I vehicle was not displaying a light at
the time of the accident. Thus in
either case the speedftend or the drivler
of a lightles* vehicle takes a long
hance when he violates the new law
governing the use of vehicles on the
highways^?The Dillon Herald.

I A Ragged Jacket
lAlthough 1 am but a workingman, I
live by honest labor,
II always do the best I can to assist
I a needy neighbor,
I Content in health is all my wealth,
with honesty to back it,
I My motives pure, although I'm poor,
I sespect a ragged jacket,
I Let people say whatever they may of
| broadcloath and who wears it,
I t's not the coat that makes the man,
Ifut'the deed thru life that bears
it;
?o always help a fellow-man, if assistance
he should lack it.
I Do him all the good you can, though
he wears a ragged jacket,
I All men were equally born at first,
through this and every nation,
I The rich among the poor would be
1 but for wealth and education,
I And when we're laid beneath the sod,
with a hundred years to pack it,
1 Who can tell which were the bones
1 that wore the ragged jacket ?
