Tills Institution is lii Sound Finaii'
L clal Condition and is Strengthened
by the Adttitlon of Mr liuck
to its Clerical Force.
At a recent meeting1 of the stockholders
of the Bank of Conway, Mr
Hal L. Buck was elected cashier of
that institution, in place of Col D.
A. Spivey, who has been acting in
that capacity for the past several
years. Mr 13. G. Collins was reelected
as president and Col D. A
Spivey still (ills the ottice of vicepresident.
The business of the
bank has been growing and the
>usuiuiion was 111 11m; in unuuier
'-competent man. IIal L. Buck, who
is the owner of a large block of
stock was selected as the man for
the place! His long experience fits
him well for the position and the
institution gains by having him behind
the desk.
Up to the first of the year he was
vice-president and director of the
Bank of Horry and resigned this position
to accept the other. Mr D.
V. Richardson was elected by the
Bank of Horry to till the vacancy.
With this exception all the old officers
of the Bank of Ilorry were
reelected.
??* ? 4^? ?In
Kcply to Rev J. I*. I. ml I a in
Editor Herald: Will you kindlv
allow me space in your valuable paper
to reply to Mr Ludlam?
Mr Ludlam, where can I (ind anything
in the scriptures against the
unknown tongue? 1 thank you sincerely
for you explanation of the
14th chapter of 1st Corinthains, as
it is something more than I asked
you for. When 1 want to know
anything I ask somebody that knows
more than I do to tell mo. 1 think
that if you will read more.carefully
vou will find out more about the un
known tongue, and you cannot find
anything to condemn it at all,
t haven't tho gift of tongues,
neither am 1 a Christian pipe or
harp for it is known by its sound.
Now Mr J. P. will you kindly tell
me which is the worse curse, the
tongues or the pride of our so-called
preachers, who only preach for the
dollar? When we send men to college
to educate them for tho ministery,
what are they (it for? Who
called them to preach?was it not
the dollar?
Now, Mr J. P, ask and you shall
receive. If you will ask you may
receive the gift of tongues. Judge
not lest ye be judge. Condemn not
lest you be condemned.
When you find anything against
the tongues take the scriptures and
study them. When you find fault in
the man who has tho gift of tongues
say lets get rid of him, for a crazy
mau will do things wrong.
Rev J. P. will you explain the
seven candle sticks and the two
great witnesses and who they were?
nope you will answer as it may
give light to all who read tho Herald.
Which are we going to have, the
State dispensary or tho blind tigers?
I think it is a shame to the county
fo" the blind tigers to be running
at! jar county seat. I think it ought
to oe stopped if we have to have the
dispensary to get rid of them.
Rest wishes to the Herald.

Concerning- Crop*. Health ami n
,rtarria?:c.
The health of this community is
very good at present.
As a new yeir has entered, there
are lots of tobacco growers preparing
for che starting of another
crop. As the price of cotton is so
low, which has somewhat di-cour
aged the planters, there will be lots
more tobacco grown in this section
than heretofore.
Christmas passed otT tjuiotly and
everybody seemed to enjoy it.
On the 17th of December, 1 DOS,
Mr George Liabon and Miss ?>atie

frolieing nias.j passing on tlieir way
to and irorn the various parties 01
dances given by thai class of people
in this county during tho winter
season, 1 am almost compelled to
throw up my hands in horror as
though the devil himself appeared,
Is it possible th it we can't be
be more useful than to follow such?
Can't we show our children something
better to follow? Can't we
make them more what they should j
be, or must we lead them up to the
pit and say now go in heels over
head, or shall 1 shove you in?
This frolieing reminds mo of the
fact, that 1 have been to few in my
life and I learned something about
them, but 1 didn't learn how or why j
the mothers and lathers, knowing
bhe ways of the world so good, can
encourage their children to follow
such things. Kvcryone thinks their
children too good to do any thing
wrong until bhe horrible truth presents
itself. Tee son brought in
drunk or disorderly, or the (laughter i
brought to shame and disgrace. I
Then iistcu?but who is to blame?
Nobody but tlx4 fathers and mothers
for allowing all kinds of frolics and
all kinds of people at tin so pi ?ces.
They grow up, join th church and
Sunday .school claiming to follu-.v the
wavsnf rpiirv<t. W'lt.'h Mini v.ui will
Know. Christ didn't go to frolics. In
lCcclesiastes ll-IX it says: "Rejoice,
oh young man in thy y ?mh
and lot thy heartch/or thou in the
days of thy youth, and wall* in the
way of thine heart and in the sight
of thine eyes. Hat know thou that
for all these things Cod will bring
thee into judgincutThe
(irst Kp Con of John 2 15:
''.Love not the world, neither the
things that are in the world. If
any man love the world the love of
the father is not in him."
Second Peter 2 11: ' Having eyes
full of adultry and that cannot cease
from sin, beguiling souls, a heart
they have exercised with covetous
practices, cursed children."
V\ ny not lead our children right?
We wouldn't take them to a bar
room and we wouldn't take them to
a house of ill fame. No, out wo do
allow thetn to go in all kinds of
places to learn these things. Look
at the condition of some of our
churches and Sunday schools, or tie
young folks that belong to thetn.;
It is a bad sight to see a child go to
Sunday school with a half learned
lesson. See them in thc'church looking
at each other smiliug, passing
notes, or making motions. That is
only too well understood. Ask them
to repeat the golden text of their
Sunday school lesson on Monday
and they don't know anything about
it. Ask them what book, chapter,
etc., the preacher used and they
say I forgot, Hut ask that 14 or 1(>
year old flirt what kind or a shirt,
or tie 01* hat or coat, or shoes Bill
had on and she can answer. Ask
Bill what those llirts had on he can
toll you how they were dressed, but
ho couldnt repeat two words the
preacher said. But all that is good
side of those so-called parties. Their
proper names are partners. They
pari the boy from the right, the
part him from soberness, thev part
him from the eon pan.} of ladies,
they part him from manliness, they
part him from God's way altogether!
They part that sweet girl from
decency, they part her from gen'lomen,
they part her from the right a
weakness on their part and strength
on the devil's part. But its only a
party?no harm in them.
How can our older peoplo turn a
deaf ear and blind eye to such? How
| can our proaehers, Sunday school
| leaders and religious workers allow
such? How can our law makers let
such schemes escape their attention?
How can our churches and associations
stand for its members to take
part in these works of the devil? No
doubt some will think me very foolish
for some of these writings, but I
think there are thousands a great
deal more foolish to take part and*
be well wishers to such parties,
Tho only thing I can say is, 1
think the devil is reaping an abundant
harvest.
If this note oi Correction reaches
the press there may be some mashed
toes seeking apologizes, so I say
for their good, they may have them
mashed worse.

I'ho Smitlay School Convention
Meets at l.oris January 22. 2.1
and 24' A Full Dclcxulion Hrjrcd
There is now but two weeks before
the County Convention. What
is to be done should bo done immedi
itely Don't put it oil, start now
to work up your delegation for the
Convention. If we hold the banner
another year each one must do his
or her share.
Kverv Sunday school in the coun|
ty will be expected to send at least
' 1 wo delegates to Loris, and as many
more as possible. Hut be sure that
you. tarry as many a^ two with you
from your school. Every superintendent
and every teacher should
make u special effort to be present

UP I HI >?* IS SllOlli, nil L MI'S IJUCK,
the Couniy Secretary, is trying
hard to gel reports from every Sunday
school before the convention.
As soon as you receive the blank
please till it out immediately and return
it to her at liucksville. Her
in port counts a lot in the banner
r.-ce, and your report is necessary
to make hers complete.
Another point that counts in the
b urner race is the pledge made by
the county to the State association.
It will be impossible for the county
association to pay this pledge if you
do not do your share. There are
many who are behind in their pledges
to the county work. Please
v'tid this to Mr J C. Spivey at
Conway as soon as possible. If
.you want to help in the work, and
have not mado a pledge already,
don't hesitate, just send your contribution
to Mr Spivey. We will
need every ment we can raise to pay
our bills and meet our State pledge.
One more point. While we are
in the race for the banner, the bantu
r is not our aim. Let us not
forget t-hat we are working for the
uplifting of the Sunday school work
in the county, that our aim is more
work and oetler work for the Mastor.
Pray for lhe success of the County
Convention, and meet me at Loris
on the morning of the 22nd.
Yours very truly, .
