BRAINERD INSTITUTE NEWh
5 By Sfrra T. Barber
Brainerd Institute has been favored
by a very recent visit from
Mrs. Agnes B. Snively, Mrs.
. Snively arrived on the campus
Thursday, March 4, and spent r.
night and the following day. Ii
was the delightful privilege of the
scnooi to see ana near Mrs. snive
ly in the Martha Tweed Chape!
Friday morning.
Mrs. Snively talked out of her
experience. Her address was so
animated with vivid illustration.-,
that one might niomentarilv find
himself feeling that he actually
saw and experienced the thing ol
which she spoke. One in.pressiv*
thing of Mrs. Snively's address
"'"I her "Book of Remembrance.'
From it she drew pictures of
school life in various sections or
our country? of the alert boys
, and girls at Edisto Island, S. ! C.
repeating in concert chapters of
the Bible,, of the enthusiastice
- students at Boggs Academy cor..
' - ducting a prayer service, of boysand
girls at Brainerd liftine their
voices in song, and of Chinese and
Indian children striving to master
the English language. She- held
up to us xhe great advantages
which we have in knowing the
English language and in being
citizens in the dominion over which
the American flae waves. These
advantages were further emphasized
by a story of a little Chinese
girl who had learned some Eng
lish and had pit up a sign which .
rea<Tthus: "English taught here ar
far as the letter G." In conclusion
Mrs. Snively told us that we
were stewards for Christ and to
keen that in mind. ^Ve were de
F lighted to havC" her visit some of
our classrooms.
Sunday morning, March 11, the
school listened to an interesting
' discourse delivered by Rev. J. W.
church. Rev. Manoney took for his
text these words: "I Can Do AI
Things Through Christ Which
Stren.gtheneth Me." T^e sneakev
i painted vividly a picture of the
apojtle RauLin the prison at Phil
.1 lip'i?a man in prision and " in a \
sence unable to deliver himselt
-*? saying that-he could do all things j
But there is another phrase
"through Christ which strength,
eneth me." This phrase corttain-1
tho ability of Paul's boast. Paul's
j boast contains a note of vision, of
(\ pardon, of power and of profound
neace. As was true of Paul it k
\ I only through Christ that Christians
I r todav can boast' of their ability to
| v do things.
Sunday afternoon the Sabbetb
school met at four o'clock. Miss
the lesson. The class discussions
and the discussion in assembly oi
questions passed to the superinten.

A WORD OF APPRECIATION
TO THE LOYAL OFFICERS
AND MEMBERS OF MORRIS
BROWN
It is as true today as ever that
there is no worse sin than ingrati- 1
tude. Motivated by this thought I .
take occasion to express appre- '
ciation to the loyal members and
friends of Morris Brown, 'Charleston.
The measure of succe-s .
which came to the church during
my iiuiiiwusuuiiun was uue lo trie
loyalty, the love, and the fidelity
of those with whom the Kingdom
of God is not "meat and drink."
The co-operation that was given
by the. good Christian there
determined by the creditable reports,
financially and spiritually,
which came from that church. By
their help, not once has the trus-,
tee department run a deficit any
month during the last year. They
moved up from a broken furnace
on which repair bills could not be
kept up to the modern heating
nlar.t installed by any church in
Charleston, at a cost of over $1900.
On this they have been so generous
in their support tbat all payment
have been made up until
August 1937.
rri i. ...
i. ney gave 10 nieir pastor iur
he last Annual Conference $636
for the Dollar Money fund, and
commendable reports for all other
items. $475 was raised for educa-^,
tion, $6,040 for all purposes and '
more than a hundred memhers
joined the church.
We wish to thank those who
made it possible for us to come out
of our last trustee meeting: with
all current bills paid, except less
than 40 dollars for permanent improvement.
A word of praise, like
wise, is due the pood women whose
clubs have made the interior of :
the parsonage a thing of beauty.
They have been untiringly loyal to
and exemplified the moral and I
their church and to their pastor .
spiritual earnestness of the Christians
toward the Apostle Paul in the !
^arly days of the church. I deem i
them worthy of this public express '
Ton~and feel gratified tliat through
their help and the direction of the
Moly Spirit the church has made i
pains which time, the keeper of
the Scrolls of History, will proildly
tell.
