O9me, all ye vallant soldiers, A story I Will tell About a-noted battle You will remember well. Chorus: Sing carry Mne away, Oh, carry n away. It was an awful strife And will cause your )lood to chill; It was an awful battle That was fought on Shiloh's hill. It was the sixth of April, About the break of day; The drums and fifes were play ing For us to march away. The horrors of that hour I do remember still When first my feet were treed Ing The top of Shiloh's hill. About the hour of sunrise The battle It began; Before the day was ended Wefought from hand to hand The horrors of that hour Did my heart with anguish fill To see the dead and wounded That lay on Shiloh's hill. There were men from every na tion That lay on that bloody plain; SOME SUNDAYISMS Rev. " Billy" Sunday has crossed over the Pennsylvania line into New Jersey, and here are a few jolts he handed out in Paterson, mostly baseball slang: "Do I think a nian can use tobacco and be a Christian? Sure I do, but he'll be a mighty dirty one.'' "It takes 3,000 sermons to save one whiskey-soaked,hog-jowled, weasel - eyed, buttermilk - and - water mutt.." "Some people are so stingy that they talk through their noses to keep from wearing out their false teeth." "Any man who has got good red blood in his veins doesn't like to play second fiddle to a bow legged lapdog." "It cuts no ice with the Lord whether you're a hobo counting the ties of the division or a mil lionaire rolling up in your lim ousine." "God sa'id to the sun: 'Here, you stand still while my servant Joshua licks that bunch to a frazzle. Stand still till he gives you the high sign.' " "You haven't got enough oil of the Holy Ghost to grease one axle of God's chariot. You sing 'Throwv out the Life Line,' and you haven't enough strength to sling a clothesline." "Say, you coctail-taking, tan go-tearing, ragtime-tooting, fuz zle-headed little sissies, smnging 'Does the spearmint lose its fla vor on the bedpost over night?' Say, you need a number eleven slipper applied where it will do the most good." Notice to S. S. Superintendents The county of Pickens has been asked to send a full dele gation of representatives to the State Sunday School association, and credentials are now in my hands for those who can attend, as long as they last. Only a few more days to act, so send me your name, the name of your school and denomination, and I will return credentials promptly. Entertainment will be free to all h o I d i n g credentials. No school could fail to secure a good representative in sending their superintendent, one of their teachers or secretary. The pastor is always a fine representative and will be glad to go if you ask him. Ask him. WV. A. MATHE~WS, County president. P. S.

S6 early the next morning We were~called to arms again, Unminded of the wounded, Unmindful of the slain. The battle was renewed And ten thousand more were slain;, That was the second battle That was fought on Shiloh's plain. Before the day was ended The battle ceased to bore Ten thousand of good soldiers That fell to rise no more. They have left their vacant ranks For other ones to fill, And now their molding bodies All lay on Shiloh's hill. And now my song is ended About this bloody plain; I hone the sight by mortal man Will ne'er be seen again. Letter from Glenwood Since our last letter there has been snow and sleet, and the finest Easter day that we have enjoyed in many years, which caused the people to smile, es pecially the younger folks. Saturday afternoon several of the Sunday school classes had an Easter eeg hunt. Among the most notable was Class No. 8 of the Glenwood Baptist Sun day school, taught by Mr. D. B. Cobb, who arranged Saturday afternoon for them to go to the Saluda dam and have the egg hunt. Messrs. J. J. Sims, Clate Rice and William Elliott were invited and attended. There were 67 members of this class present, so 67 eggs were hid and 67 found. Dewey stansel was given a fine pocket knife as a prize for having found the most eggs. Halbert Edens, Jerry Smith and Frank Robinson hid the eggs. After the eggs were found they arranged for' a fish pond, usi~ng 67 sweet crackers (one for each scholar). Six of these crackers had a nickel in them. So, much enthusiasm was manifested, because they could not eat the crackers until the table had been spread, as each one bcarried a lunch for this occasion. After the table was prepared Mr. Cobb returned thanks to God for these blessings, and then they wecnt after the nickels. The boys spent part of their time playing in the sandbanks. They then visited the power house. About this time orders were given to meet the wagons, so all obeyed and returned home as happy a band as the wvriter ever remembt rs seeing. It required three two-horse wagons and and one buggy to accommodate them. They ar ranged themselves in front of Parris Bros'. store and had their photos made. We are glad to say the interest did not cease with the return home. When Sunday school opened Sunday morning Class No. 8 reported 81 present. Contribution $1. These are junior boys, too. Just think what honest efforts will do! This class was organized by Mr.Cobb some 14 months ago, having no one but himself to begin with. Today it is the largest class of junior boys I know of. Why don't others get busy ? Mr. J. D. Fant will preach for us Saturday ni,<ht, April 17. Everybody is invited to attend. Mr. Fant is a railroad man and can interest all. S.Y.B.

Some who are lovers of the "feast" say they don't care for the-law for they can order two gallons in a one gallon jug, meaning that they can order one gallon of alcohol and make two of "head burst." The change in the law1s very good and will decrease drunken. ness to some extent, but more restriction could have been thrown around the cursed stuff. Every person who i a I t o d rhiskey and was compelled to have it, as some claim, let them be required to furnish a certifi cate from a practicing physician setting forth exactly for what purpose the whiskey was to be used for and let that physician issue no certificate unless the wvhiskey was for a medical pur. pose and require the applicant to make oath to that effect be fore some officer duly authorized to take oaths. Then have that certificate filed with the clerk of cout and < duplicate attached to the jug hen it come.

Registered Stock at Oolenoy "rBaron Spot t swood" is the name of the large registered Berkshire hog that has recently b~eenl purchased b)y W. E. Edens, Jr., an enterprising citizen of solenoy. This animal takes the place of the one which as unfortunately killed a few weeks ago. The introduction of thor ougbred stock in any community is considered b~y all thinking peo& ple as one of the first steps to w ard progress not only of the in dividual but of the community as wvell. It means more interest in stock breeding. It also means a diversion from the 0o(d rut of the farmer who raises nothing save cotton for the market.
