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. - #

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

chief pleasure will be in the thought
that while the day was reigning it
found me neither lagging, nor idling,
and it was filled with honest work.
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.

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

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

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

There is much sickness in our com

season.
Farmers are closing up the gathering

money in the country and we as' $
people have much to be thankful for
on this 139th year of the American
independence.
