C' The Sense of Fear. *
Henry Ford, in an interview with
a magazine writer not long ago, said
the impelling motive with most men
is the sense of fear. Men fear they
will lose their money, or their posit,
ions, or their health, or the esteem
of friends—any or all. of these and
other things—and their fears make
them timid and inefficient.
The idea is not a .new one. A
minister once preached a sermon on
“The Sin of Fear.” He argued that
if a man lived the right life he would
have nothing to fear, and that, there,
fore, fear was sin, or the reeult of iin.
People who have this sense of fear
so highly developed in their make-up
are to be pitied, although they may'not
wholly deserve it. Most of our fea*§
are groundless; the dangers we fear
do not exist. Our expected troubles
are never as great as we think they
will be; our misfortunes as a rule
could be much greater.
There is nothing and nobody to fear
except the Almighty, and Him only
when we have disobeyed Him.

One June 6th, just as the darkness
of the night was passing away and
Mother Earth was being brightenct
by the rays of dawn, the life of Mrs.
R. M. Burckhalter, of Dunbarton
passed out of this world and enterct
into the Great Beyond, where there
is no darkness or night but always a
day full of love and happiness, which
portrays the character of our friends.
She was unfailingly c„eerful and
her interest in people and in the
common human ways of life was un
flagging. She was at home at the
bedside of the sick and in the homes
of the sorrowing and the poor. For
five years Mrs. Burckhalter wis
president of. the W. M. S. of,Joyce
Branch Church, which grew from a
band of a very few into a flourishing
society. She was always active and
willing to do service for the Lord,
and even though her health would
not permit her for the lust year to
attend the meetings regularly, the
society * received . much inspiration
from her.
We refrain from writing of her
^ beautiful home life (though only of
few short years). Words are not at
our command to express its beauty
and serenity, for her home was an
earthly heaven. Christ was at its
head and it was a haven of refuge
from the world. The atmoaphere of
that home was an atmosphere of
prayer and devotion—devotion to God,
devotion to husband, to love ones and
frends. Such a life was ready to
cross the river of death.
"I know I am nearing-the holy
ranks
Of friends and Itrved ones deal;
I brush the dews on Jordan's
banks, 4
The crossing must b^ near.”
Her presence among us was a
continual blessing und earnestly did
we pour out our continual prayers to
God to spare her to us for His glory.
Now that He .saw fit to take her to
be with Him, we miss her pleasa it
face and cheerful greeting. Her
memory' lingers as a benf'diction. We
have no doubt as to her destination.
It can be truly said of her, “She hath
done what she could.”
Mrs. Burckhalter had been with
her sister-in-law, Mrs. B. A. Roun
tree, for about six weeks, thinking
perhaps the change would do her
good and it being more convenient to
receive medical treatment, but with
all the tender nursing and care
showered upon her by her physician^
loved ones and friends, nothing
could stay the hand of death. She
was laid to rest in the presence of a
large crowd of sorrowing relatives
and friends in the Joyce Branch

funeral services being conducted by

VALUE OF A TECHNICAL
EDUCATION
A technical education is the best
insurance against hard times. In
earning capacity, it may equal an
estate of $50,000. For the un
trained are the positions of oov-
erty and obscurity.
Times are hard in South Caro
lina, but the cost of an education
at Clemson College is compara-
4tively low,—sufficiently low to be
within the reach of any ambitious
young man in South Carolina.
Scholarships, free tuition and
the payment by the United States
Government to R. O. T. C. stu

cost. ,
