THE OBSERVER.
}
Metaphorically speaking, President
Taft put his foot in it when
he addressed the womans suffrage
convention. However, the president 1
has shown himself peculiarly adapt- *
ed to doing the wrong thing.
P
Oi course Batesburg is going to *
have a new school building. Let no c
one say "nay" to this. The citizens j
of Batesburg have too much interest ?
in their town to neglect that which C
will do the town the most good, and (
which, at the same time, will bring J
large returns for the money invested.

In unity there is strength. Tiite
but true. Columbia has just given *
inew a demonstration of the prop '
Dsition, and Columbia is a better *
town than she was one week ago.
When her business men determined *
to raise $85,000 for the purpose o! s
erecting a Y. M. C. A. building,
they piesentccl a solid trout and,
sweeping aside all obstacles, they .
marched straight across the goal
line. There is no telling what people
can do when they forget all <
personal differences and set about
doing it. What has happened ii.
Columbia simply goes to show that,
when the citizens of any town unitedly
determine upon anything', its
accomplishment is assured.
"Never cross the bridge 'til you
get to it," is an old saying, but it
alwa>s has fresh application. Toe
many of us are not philosog>hcrs.
,., ., . . t
we are constantly worrying about
things that never happen. We sie c
stone walls a long way ahead of us, '
and then find that they varnish as \
.ve approach. What is the trouble? J
Is it really because we are not phi!- ^
osophers, or is it because we have
not faith in divine power? Think of (
the times in your life when all youi r
dark forebodings amounted to t
nothing, when what you feared s
would happen did not happen,
when the moments you dreaded '
s ipped into the j as' and left yet;
smiling and buoyant and free c.
burden. Who brought the light'.
Who helped you? W'ho eased th< t
burden? Hove you thought of this 1
There is food for thou :ht in it. '
