FRIDAY, NOVE1 It is difficult to see wisdom in a man whose views diverge from your own. The man who lives for himself alone is unfit to live and unprepared to die. , If business is not good with you, try less fault finding and do some head work. If you have no faith in yourself you may rest assured your neighbors will have none in you. v Insurance is a heavy burden in times of no fire, but a mighty helper after the flames have done their work. One thing about it, the members of Congress seem to be earning their salaries under President Wilson's administration. Anyway, they are putting in full time. We have receiver a copy of "Memory Gems, or Short Quotations," compiled by N. O. Pyles, of Columbia. The second edition is just out, and-is gotten out in neat flexible binding. The mechanical work is excellent, and was done by the press of Lutheran Board of -Publications, Columbia, S. C. The booklet sella for 16 cents. A CAUSE FOR THANKSGIVING. in my daily life 1 believe 1 would say. ' "Thank God for a mind to worlc" The ceaseless, sometimes strenous tasks of each passing day are absolutely necessary to my peace of mind. I have often prayed to be delivered from the inactive, shut in life, and that the summons to go hence might, in God's good kindness, be like the snuffing out of a candle. To toil, battle, strive worthily, succeed honestly in filling each day with some accomplished deed, some honest achievement, however lowly, is an ambition worthy of any man's desire. To go to the end, and to lose not one day on earth! That appears to me to be really worth while. I believe God abhors an idler, and I believe such a man comes to despise himself. He (rnp>i frnm hnH tr> u/nrao Mn hntipof work to do! No soul-absorbing aim to inspire! Just to live, to eat, drink ?such a life cannot get far above the domain of the brute. It would drive an honest, sober man to the mad house or to the dens of vice. True, sometimes the worker worn with the burden and heat of the day, finds himself almost wishing he coula fold his hands and join the class -of idlers who cumber the earth. But a refreshing sleep, a recreation, the making of a single night, sends him ^ It. 2 ? * 1. - # iorin attain wun a song OI praJSC that God, in His goodness opens the way in some worthy field of human activity. It is not an accident that the world's greatest Teacher was a carpenter. It is not any wonder that this son of a carpenter shouid so often speak of "the sower" going forth to sow; the sheppanJ leading the sheep forth to pasture, housedolders, husbandmen, housebuilders, soldiers, for He was Himself a Doer of deeds. No man can be happy, nor can he be useful, except he be a worker. There is no place in the economy of God's plan for the idle man. There may come a time, a day of shadows, when the race is almost run, when the sun is nearing the horizon of the west, when the worker will have to sit with folded hands and await the sunset. If I should thus come towards the end of life's little day, God grant grace, patiepce, submission. And I am sure He will, else He will send the night with sudden and swift descent. If the twilight is long, I feel sure its >IM TIMES THE UNION TIMES COMPANY BELL PHONE NO. 1 Editor ?n, S. C., as second class matter.

Thank God for the grind, noise, struggle, battles of each passing day. Thank God for a mind* to work. There will be rest in Heaven, but even there let us hop? that it will be activity that does not lead to weariness rather than a folding of the hands in silence and inaction. Go forth, ye men and women of earth, into each day's struggle with a song of thanksgiving upon your lips and praise to the great Creator that he has so highly privileged you. DID NOT TELL ALL. Mr. W. H. S. Harris, the Times' correspondent at Jonesville, has some very flattering things to say about me in his letter of this week. Contrary to my custbm as editor of the paper, I have allowed his letter to go in just as he wrote it. But if it vere not for the fact that I usually allow Mr. Harris to say whatever he pleases in his letters to The Times, and alsd that I had this opportunity to' sdy a word more, my sense of fitness would have forced me to use the blue pencil on Mr. Harris' letter. He did not tell of the handsome suit of clothes presented by him to Brother Ariail, the retiring pastor, in behalf oA^^^^agMi^lA people; friend for?10, presremHriit the close of the service Sunday night to this faithful pastor. The truth is. I was so thoroughly enjoying the most excellent sermon Brother Ariail was preaching, it was so tender and so appropriate, and so well thought out, that I just about forgot myself. And when he called upon me to make a speech at the close of the sermon, it ime to me that there being so many visiting friends from other congregations would, if there should b^ a deficit at that time, embarass, or at least discourage our Methodist brethren in any plans they might have made to round up the whole 'ear's Work. This thought led me to ask Brother Ariail the question, and brought from, him the reply that there was a deficit. That's all there was to it, and the thought was unpremeditated on my part, even if my taking such liberties did seem a bit immodest in me. But I'm glad Brother Harris was kind enough to take it all in the spiit I intended. Anyway, there is such kindly feeling between the Christian denominations in Jonesville that one feels quite at home, even in his neighbor's church. Lewis M. Rice. JONESVILLE JONESVILLE, Nov. 25.?One month will bring Christmas and who of 115? will ho n 1 ivo In ooa if 9 Or *i?Ua that lives will be ready for it, is all veiled in darkness for they are dropping off one by one. Last Sunday the remains of Lemuel I. Burgess, were buried at Gilead. He died at the Soldiers Home in Columbia where he had only been for a few weeks. Mr. Burgess was a veteran of the late war, having served through the struggle in Co. B 18th Regiment and his war record was good. Monday the remains of Mr. H. B. O'Shields were laid to rest here at Gilead. Mr. O'Shields comn*itted suicide at Fort Lawn on last Saturday morning where he had been living for some time. Mr. O'Shields was reared up in Jonesville and only left here a few years ago. He was always ? , I U 1 L - ^ J - 1 a kuuu uojf nun nt: muut; t? |(uuu inun arid a true gentleman, who had the respect and confidence of his fellows. The report comes from Port Lawn that Mr. O'Shields as cashier of the bank at that place had allowed certain parties or party, to overdraw on I the bank consederably and for this I \ he was much worried and troubled which explains the committal of thd rash act. Mr. O'Shields was 31 years -?f age and leaves a widow and four children. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Lewis M. Rice, oi Union and the remains were laid to rest just at the close of the day and in the presence of a large number of relatives and friends. Rev. W. H. Ariail preached his farewell sermon here Sunday night and goes to Rock Hill to the Annual Conference. A large congregation heard the preacher deliver his last gospel message, which was mixed with expressions of love and sadness and tears and many in the congregatinn era vo ovnrocoinn fVlo. I ? ?*? v vAj/i vooiuii vw vaiv omnv kind of feeling. Rev. L. M. Rice called in his appointment at the Baptist church and came over and worshipped with the Methodist and for the time being he made a gocyl Methodist and more particularly a Methodist steward for he somehow or other found out the Methodist church had not paid their assessment in full for the year and he took the floor and never stopped until he raised a good part of the deficit. The stewards next day raised the balance. It is a great man that can adjust himself to all things and work for his friends and preach the gospel too, but we "ertainly have all this and more In the person of the Rev. Lewis M. Rice} There is much sickness in our com munity such as is usual in the fill season. Farmers are closing up the gathering in of their crops, most of the cotton crop has been sold and all at or above 13 cents, which has put much money in the country and we as' $ people have much to be thankful for on this 139th year of the American independence.
