Lesson for August 301 I Timothy 4: 7-16. Golden Text: J Timothy 4:12. Paul was writing to Timothy to give him wholesome advice on the duties and privileges of the Chris tian ministry. The young man had become a popular city pastor and Paul was concerned that he fol low a wise course as such. Timothy was advised to steer clear of profane and old wives’ tales, that is, of the false doctrines that might be met with. The Greek athletes were interesting, but their exercise was small compared to the exercise of godliness, to which Timothy was urged. For the end of godliness is npt a crown of laurel In the Olympic games, but the promise of everlasting life. “Let no man despise thy youth.” Young men in the ministry may not be handicapped by their youth if they will study and profit by Paul’s counsel to Timothy regarding the duties of the Christian ministry. Timothy was exhorted not to neg lect the gift that was in him, to be a worthy example to those that believed, to give heed *d reading, exhortation, and teaching. He was to give heed to his teach ing. And everyone who undertakes to instruct others in the way of life should do the same. There is no need at the present for some new truth, but a faithful proclama tion of the old truth that has blessed men for nearly 2,000 years. In declaring the old truth men can save both themselves and those that hear them.

The building itself, located on the northeast corner of Broad and Meeting Sts., is a part of the history of the state’s most historic city. Designed by Gabriel Manigault, it was built about 1802 as a branch of the Bank of the United States. The City of Charleston bought it in 1818 when the Bank was removed from the City. / A handsome, imposing structure, the City Hall is set in Washington Square of City Hall Park, which contains some excellent statuary—a statue of William Pitts erected in 1770, a shaft honoring the Washington Light Infantry, a bust of Henry Timrod, and a monument to Confederate Gen. P. G. T. Beauregard who commanded Charleston’s defenses. Some of the inside statuary includes busts of Robert Y. Hayne, Gen. Robert E. Lee, James Louis Pettigru, Robert Fulton, Calhoun and others. The private offices of the Mayor and City Clerk are sep arated from the Council Chamber by sliding doors so that the entire expanse may be turned into one huge room. On the north side are committee rooms and the City Courtroom. The first floor of the building now is cut up into offices for various agencies and is connected to the second floor by easy stairways. Council Chamber, where the portraits and busts offer the chief attractions for visitors, is open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., Mondays through Fridays, and 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., Saturdays.
