OLD TIME REVIVAL FOR COLORED PEOPLE: I. A Religious Campaign in Kingstree I To Be Conducted By Rev. Rich- p ard Carroll Of Columbia b n Mr. Bditor:Some time early in the spring per- a haps, beginning about April 20th, if | it is the best time for all concerned, jc I want to begin a religious campaign P among the colored people of Kings- j tree similar to one I held in Rome, Georgia, two years ago. I want the white citizens of Kingstree to do | what they did for me in Rome where I am asked to return in June for an- * other meeting. The white people of i0 Rome furnished a big tent, seats and ' b 'electric lights, we did not ask thcmj0 for much money, the colored people, gladly and willingly paid all expenses. TTiere were seats for 1,600 peo-1ri pie. The religious campaign was c< opened on a hill near a cotton mill,, the white people attended the meeting every night, hundreds sat on the j * green grass and listened to the ser-10 vice. A white man who was an offi- j it cer in the white Methodist church |D there did more for me than any oth- tl er individual, a Mr. Stewart, who is! the leading spirit now that wants another meeting of the same nature j? in Rome. j a I want to ask the following favors of the white citizens of Kingstree: I Vir?t I want their moral support; j!' second, I want to have the warehouse J* seated or have the meeting at the fair ground; third, I want the city a of Kingstree to furnish electric M lights, just as was done at Rome and other places. I will put one of the a ablest colored preachers of thecoun- e try in charge of the meeting; spe- f< rial seats will- be provided for white S( people, as was done at other points. At the close of the meeting the white :a and colored people of Kingstree will p be benefited and be as separated so-1 rially as they are now. The white I people of the South will have to save the Negroes in order to save them- ?' selves. The same education and gospel that makes the white people ^ wiser and better citizen? will have the same effect on the colored people. They are with you, they are next p door to you. The gospel of Jesus .Christ is your best defense, your) guardian, your protection. I wantjh the white people to cooperate, I |n want you to know what we are in f e Kingstree for; we believe in that j p 1 11?Koffot- wicor I il gospel Uliil maiwo IIICU uvivv., ?- - . ?to walk in the newness of life, bet-; o ter citizens, more industrious. j s I am a Baptist, but I want the co- ; h operation of all citizens, white or J I; black, in the great religious cam- 11 paign. Our first object will be to get | h men converted, a new life, a new de- |C termination, and a new destiny. Let j f us not be afraid of each other, let us jt get together and make "the desert, o blossom as the rose" and make Kingstree a safe place to live in for! white and black. I shall ask Rev. W. L. McFarlan : to be chairman of the steering com-; i mittee. 'I believe that Dr. E. A. Mc-1 I Dowell and other white Christians ] will cooperate. | Richard Cor roll, \ I Columbia. S. C.

A patch of rape planted now will furnish more grazing for hops than any crop that can be planted now. Rape is also one of the best crops that we can plant now for giving us some fine feed for poultry. Rape is a great egg producer, rape i , makes an excellent table salad. If you haven't anything in your garden to eat now, by all means plant some rape, and it won't be but about six weeks before you will have something to boil for dinner. It takes rich land for rape, so if your land isn't extra rich, broadcast heavily some well rotted stable manure. Prepare the ground well, as you would for turnips, and either sow broadcast or plant in rows about 18 or 20 inches apart. If you plant in rows you will need about four or Syrup Pepsin has satisfactory than ft. ever used. The other also use it and we realdwell written b\\ 005 N.5th Street", 1 a.

Rape can be planted until the liter nai-t of March?the sooner the -otter. Remember, that the secret in rowing good rape is to have a well -repared seed bed and have the land roadcasted heavily with stable mamre. The cast of seeding is very cheap s the seed only cost from 15 to 20 ents per pound. Plant now; it will ay. Shall We Annex The question of annexing this part f Georgetown county to Williamsurg county is creating quite a bit f enthusiasm among our townsmen nil citizens of the surrounding teritory and we think it proper to amment on the matter at this time. We have talked this question to a reat majority of the qualified votrs of this section and they all think ; the proper step to take. We have ot heard a dissenting voice as to lis step. Under these conditions the nly thing we can do in justice to ae people at large of the territory fleeted is to petition for an election a be held on the question, and it i'l then be 'eft to a two-third maarity vote. The Andrews News is in favor of nncxation and will work for it, for re believe it will be benificial to us 11 and develop this section more than ver. We are hats off to any move >i- the upbuiidinp of our town and pction. May we continue to prow nd prosper in the future as in the ast. The citizens of Georgetown were omewhat excited Monday afternoon y the arrival there of two large ea planes belonging to the United tates Government. After circling ver the city for a short while the lanes alighted in Black river. As the State Highway Commission as available three quarter of a lillion do'lars of federal funds to xpend on bridge projects, it anticiates that there will be a revival of nterest <n the erection of a bridge ver *he Santee river. The counties erved by the bridge, however, will ave to cover the federal money dolar for dollar. The commission says hat the money spent on approved ridge projects will not decrease any ounty's allotment of federal funds or approved good roads projects, as he highway and bridge tunds are ntirely separate.

Frank Crane The trouble with profanity is not' " 1 so much that it is wicked, but that j it is just plain dirty. It is not so much that you shock . religious people, as that you disgust! decent people, that we object to it. | Swearers aro behind the times, i j They are hold overs from a former j century. A hundred years ago or so swearing was a habit indulged in by all classes. Ho.stlei-s swore in the stable. gentlemen swore in the club,:, boys swore in the street, and ladies | swore in the parlor. Husband and J wife cursed each other across the | breakfast table. In the .stone,"- of Smollet. for instance, anil in plays of the time of Lien .Jon^on. you will find choice : oaths ripped out by the nicest poo- \ pie when they lose their temper, i The world has grown more decent : since then. A gentleman that would curse in the presence of ladies would be hustled away, and never invited j again. Americans, in former times, were so profane that the porters of the 1 railway stations, in Fiance or Egypt, on seeing an American traveller alight from a train, would shout, "Right this way, Mr. (loddam!" Nowadays anybody who swears is set down at once as being coarse and : vulgar. , The young man who wants to succeed needs to take, advantage of everything that may help him on. And swearing will be a black mark against him in any job he may have. And if he wants to associate with , the right sort of girls he must keep his talk clean. Nobody wants a swearer in the office, nor in the workshop, nor on the train, nor in the hotel. The only place swearing fits is the saloon. Swearing means you don't know how to talk. Your vocabulary is limited. It is the sign of ignorance. swearing: means weamess. i ou will notice that forceful men, whose words carry weight, use simple, plain words. When you swear it shows your impotence. It is the petty refuge of 1 the helpless. II* you can help a thing, ' help it; if not, keep still; anyway, don't swear. . Swearing has' bad kin. It goes with ignorance, brutality, cruelty, dnjnkennesss, licentiousness, vicious ness and anger. And you can tell a habit by the company it keeps. 1 Swearing that is the sudden, impulsive exclamation is not so bad compared with swearing that has become a vile habit. And when a man * gets the habit of sprinkling oaths 1 through his speech constantly he ought to be tied out in the barn with the pigs. To abstain from swearing does not i mean you are a sissy. It simply means you're decent. J To show you are manly, you don't have to have a dirty face, nor black g finger nails, nor greasy clothes, nor , tousled hair. You can be manly though clean. And you are not shoving any manliness by filthy talk. ^ Even if you want to hurt anybody's feelings, or insult any one the wor.->t way, use plain English' it hurta much worse than curses. | Altogether, swearing is a useless, unclean and offensive habit.
