Dwds of individual courage still arouse the whrld more than any other achievement . Lindberghs’ t' welcome proves that men feel, to day, as they did about Grillon, Du- •t guesolin or Perseus. The individu- -• ml fighter, dotng it hknaelf, is the nan adored by the crowd. - Any man is courageoue with many around him. \Vith a crowd, . it is easier to go than not to go. But, by yourself, it is different. The gresrt crowds that howl for Lindbergh, and that were asleep when he started oflf in the fog, alone, at daybreak know why they applaud him. A lookout on the cruiser Mem phis, bringing Lindbergh home, called out, "There she blows, broad on the starboard bow." Lindbergh, on the bridge, saw a big bull whale, - necompanied by his "cows," keep- * ing close to their lord and master m he rolled and spouted. Nothing conld have made that bull whale believe that the tiny * man on the bridge had / flown across the Atlantic Ocean, in the other direction. How can you hope to make an atheist believe that there exists a Dhrine intellignnce flashing from one universe to another, pervading all space? The bull whale and the atheist KNOW. You can* fool them. Thank heaven for Lindbergh. He may make this Government re alise that to be defenseless in the air IS TO DE AHSOLUTFLY DEFENSELESS. He told the Chamber of Commerce in New York: “We don’t want war, and the way to avoid it is to be pre- . pared for it. We need greatly en larged commercial air service, greatly increased air mail service, to develop good pilots. It takes longer to make a pilot than to make a flying machine." H* reminded New York of the disgraceful fact that the richest city in the world has no air port, and must travel far off to Long Island to And one. And he said in substance this: “They talk about anti-aircraft guns as a defense against airplanes. A hundred fast planes would soon clear a battleship’s docks of its an ti-aircraft guns. Then a dozen bombeu would sink it. The anti aircraft guns might, but probably wouldn’t, bring downva few pilots, destroy a trifling sum in airplanes. Hut airplanes would wipe out a $20,000,000 battleship and its great iCftWoT maw," -—-—*■ Many people, including the Gov ernment, must listen to Lindbergh. That’s the^Tidvantage of climbing to a high place among men. You can MAKE others listen. Much of 'woman’s trouble has been caused by her prejudice against her own sex, her lack of mercy for other women that go wrong, her contempt for women rent rally. Miss Ucssic Mack, of Chicago, accused of flirting by two large policewomen, “beat them up”, when they sought to arrest her. She surrendered peaceably to a very snull policeman, saying, ‘‘No woman car. arrest me.” Sir Oliver Lodge, who believes in ghosts and spirits, says that with synthetic protoplasm life can -> I)e created in the laboratory. This says Lodge, docs not belittle God’s power, for 1 man is God’s creation and might well imitate his Maker on a small scale. He MIGHT, but he WON’T. That ii, he will not create the only ‘ life that counts—the life that THINKS/*' Real Ufa u THOUGHT, not «} matte" Wm. McNAB r 1 LTH AND ACCIDENT COMPANIES. a More About Rev. J. Lewis Shuck and the Monument for His Grave Editor, The People-Sentinel: as officious in this matter. My desire is to encourage the movement in any way that I can. The undertaking is moet commendable, and worthy of speedy success. First, now, a correc tion in my article appearing in The (People-Sentinel, June 23. “Seram- pore” should be “Singapore.” Then Mrs. Shuck’s death in Barnwell oc curred Aug. 20th, 1863. Further: Mr. Shuck was born at Alexandria, Va., Sept. 4th, 1812. Shortly after his conversion, while young, he attended a missionary meet ing, and when a collection was taken for foreign missions he wrote on a card which he dropped into the bas ket, “Myself,” meaning that he gave himself to the work. Mr. Shuck, was the first Ameiican Baptist missionary to China and sailed in the ship Louvre Sept. 22nd, 1836, under the patronage of the Baptist Board of Boston.™ Just one year after sailing, he arrived at Macao. Later on, he served success fully as missionary in Hong Kong. The first Mrs. Shuck (nee Miss Hall) died there in November, 1835. Later still, Mr. Shuck organized the first Baptist Church in Canton. He re turned tq the United States and trav eled in behalf of Foreign Missions. On his return he arrived in the United States in February, 1846, and ton, spent Friday with Mr. and Mrs. F. T. Merritt. Mrs. Edwards stayed over till Monday when Mrs. Merritt, Miss Annie League Merritt and Frances i Merritt accompanied her was soon engaged as missionary to home, where they — — (jlothes^^6 Ounces This Summer CSfiton by tfie * ?. M. Board of the Southern Baptist Convention, which had been organized in 1845. Thus he became the first missionary of that Board to China. He was transferred to the mission work in Shanghai. Meantime he was married (second wife) to Mias Lizzie Sexton, of Ala bama. His work in Shanghai was greatly blessed. After the death of his second wife, he became missionary to the Chinese in California. In 1854 he was married to Mis* Anna L. Trotti, of Charles ton, S. C. Then, after some years of good service in California, he moved to Barnwell, S. C., in 1861. He finally passed to his heavenly reward after about two years of labor as supply and pastir at Blaekville, Steele Creek, Mount Olivet and Long Branch Churches—all in old Barnwell Dis trict. Rev. J. Lewis Shuck was widely known, able, sincerely loved, being one of the greatest of American for eign missionaries to the Chinese. Surely many people will welcome the opportunity of contributing to the memorial stone designed for his grave. R. W. SANDERS. Greenville, S.
