W. M. IT. INSTITUTE.
Held at Denmark Baptist Church
Last Friday.
, A Baptist institute of the western
division of the W. M. U. of S. C., was
? * - J Thin
held at DenmarK last rnua.v. lllid J
division is composed of four associations,
including Barnwell association.
The meeting was one of the most inspirational
the writer has ever at'
tended. Mrs. J. R. Fizer, of Columbia,
State corresponding secretary;
Mrs. Geo. E. Davis, of Orangeburg,
State superintendent of girls auxiliaries,
and Miss Kathleen Mallory, of
Baltimore, corresponding secretary
of the Southern Baptist W. M. U.,
were present. With these three giftaA
tzmmort nnthinp' but. a tfeast COUld
be in store. Mrs. J. R. Fizer brought
a message to the meeting in what she
termed the "call of the day for women."
She made it very clear that
the?e is a call for every woman and
girl now in this Christian land of
ours, and that to accomplish the
task before us we must get busy,
give one-tenth of our means and onetenth
of our thoughts, and
the more^-e go out on the mountain
and loook up, ?he more beauty and j
joy in all we will find. She said
much more and gave all who
heard her much to meditate upon.
Miss Kathleen Mallory was present
in the interest of the church building
loan fund. We all felt before Miss
i
Mallory had spoken that the message
she had to bring would put her to a
disadvantage to those who hadn't
heard her before, for we felt that
her message would be uninteresting,
but she was all heart and soul for
the homeless-^churches and her enthusiasm
was an inspiration within
itself. ,Her appeal was so earnest
that hardly a person in the building
but gave liberally. The Denmark
W-. M. S. gave $500 to memorialize
Rev. J. D. Huggins, their pastor, who
died a few months ago. The Bam-j

of their mother member, Mrs. S. H.
Counts, Miss Mallory had subscribed
something over $5,000 out of a
mere handful of women. IJer personality
and her Vision were so appealing,
that her presence was alone
worth while, and those who failed to
hear her missed a rare treat.
Mrs. Geo. Davis gave a message
about our girls. She said the most!
important thing today is the Chris-j
tian woman, and she laid great stress 1
on the duty and obligations our girls'
I
and women are under now to our |
home coming soldier boys, and it is
* ! her prayer that we may hold up the
standard and show ourselves worthy.
_
The mingling together of the ladies
during the social hour was very
pleasant, and the hospitality of the j
Denmark ladies was unsurpassed, j
The lunch was bountiful, and the en- j
tire day was one sweet memory to I
those who were there.?Contributed. j

support no man who will say that a !
conscript is synonymous with a con- j
let." This declaration accompanies j
r'a statement issued by Representative \
Asbury F. Lever today, in which he
definitely aligns himself with the;
fight to prevent the selection of j
Champ Clark as a minority leader of
the next house.
His outspoken opposition to the j
present speaker is asserted by Dem-!
oeratic reorganizes in the house to i
he tvDical of the attitude of other'
equally prominent friends of the administration
who have not publicly j
voiced their views. His affiliations!
with the anti-Clark movement un- j
doubtedly strengthens the reorgani-i
zation element, as he has been one
of the administration mainstays on j
war legislation. Mr. Lever said:
Lever's Statement.
"I regard it of the utmost impor-1
tance to the future success of the
Democratic party that the minority;
leadership in the next congress shall j
be strong, aggressive and in the fullest
sympathy, not an enforced 'sym- j
' pathy, with the plans and purposes;
of the president of the United States,:
who for six years has been the elect-'
ed spokesman and leader of his party.
The leadership of the minority,
in the next congress should have no
axes to grind and no personal ambitions
to serve. It should be such a
leadership as can freely and without
hesitation confer with the actual
leader of the party policies. Without
such harmonious relationship
the situation for 1920 is impossible; !
with it, the future of the party could
not be more hopeful, for it is my
firm belief that the overwhelming
majority of the people of the country
are in line with the president in his
very limit the posibility of wars in
wbnderful fight to minimize to the
the future.
Will Support JLea^gue.
"The million, three hundred thous
and soldiers who have gone through
the brutal murder of this war, returning
to this country are as certain
to give their support to the idea
of a league of nations as it is certain'
that the sun will rise tomorrow
morning., and no man
can bo selected to lead the
Democrats in the next house who
does not in full measure believe in
this doctrine. To select a man for
leader who does not believe in it
would be suicide, and it is my belief
that when the Democrats of the
country realize what the real situation
is they will demand, in terms
which cannot be misunderstood,
such a leadership as will give the
president and his policies the fullest
support. Democrats cannot allow
personal relationships or sympathy
to stand in the way of party success,
and they are not going to do it. Personally
I will support no man who
will say that a conscript is synonymous
with a convict."

RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT.
Whereas, our Heavenly Father, on
March 7, 1919, called from the W.
M. S. of the Baptist church of Bamberg,
S. C.. a co-worker and one of
our most faithful members, Mrs. Susie
H. Counts.
Whereas, we recognize that our
all-wise Father knoweth* best, we
feel that in her death our society
has lost one of its most loyal members.
For years she was our president
and was ever ready and willing
to give her aid in any work pertaining
to the good of tlie church and
society. Her life was useful and
spent in the service of her Master. '
Therefore be it resolved.
First, that we bow in humble sub
