BIBLE SCHOOL
By [T. O. Mills
y
Charleston S. C., September 4?
Last week the Charleston county
Baptist Sunday School und BYPU
convention sponsored a School of
Methods and Daily Vacation Bible
school. The Rev. S. C. Campbell
conducted the School of Methods,
while Mrs. Campbell was i^ charge
of the Vacation School.
Every denomination was represented
in both schools. S. S. workers
from the various churches did
splendid'work in every department.
The music was in charge of Mrs.
Ruby Tindall. HandicAift work
>was in eha'jge of Miss Thadena
Fr&ser of Central Baptist church.
Mrs. Corrine McPherson of Morris
Street church, in charge of intermediates.
was a great asset to
the school. Other churches represented
with workers were Memo'
rial, Miss Williams; Calvary. Miss
Miriam Middleton; Jerusalem Miss
Viola Ravenel; Salem, Mr. Cross;
St. Paul, Mrs. E. Spann.
Many were the smiles on the|
faces of teachers and children as
they came together for daily work.
The work of the Vacation School
was displayed - daily to many visi-1
ito-inni! rionnminntinnrJ " I
VV19. VI - j ?i ivuo
On the first day of the school
about one hundred and fifty boys
and girls greeted ministers and
workers* in front of Jerusalem
^Bfrptist church.?Tuesday?many
more were enrolled. Friday the
enrollment reached six hundred
young people. Six hundred boys
and girls studying and , playing.
They-certainly enjoyed themselves~at
the picnic given for them by
the Sunday sehpols of the city.
Everybody hadvA. jolly good time
playipg on the* beautiful lawn of
the church. These were made possible
by the Charleston County S.
S. and B.Y.P U. convention of
which the eminent and excellent
?v pulpiteer, Dr. J.vC. Dunbar is the
president. Working with him were
? the Rev. W. Ravenel, who willing
ly gave his beautiful building to
be used for the schools.- Rev. Ravenel
is one of-our progressive pas
tors. A frigidhire fountain recently
installed in his church was the
talk of all who attended the D. V.
B. S. and School of Methods. Rev.1
Kinard of Calvary church stood 1^'
with willing hands to do his part j
in making this the greatest D. V.|
B. S. Charleston has had. Revs.
Thomas. Bennett, White. Anderson
Salmon, Gibson and the writer
played their parts well.
On Friday night the closing exercises
were held. Hundreds heard
the little children sing beautiful
songs which had been taught them
during the week by Mrs. Tyndall.
Parents were astonished when they
heard their children naming the
books of the Bible with ease. They
recited from memory the books of
history, law. poetry, proverbs and
also named the major and minor
, prophets. - Watch?Charleston, i n
Sumter next year. The Baptists
of South Carolina, of the world
are forging ahead. Our greatness
as Baptists is not measured by
the height to which we have c 1 iifibed
but frbin the depths from
whtch we have come. Onward! let
us go.
WAYSIDE NOTES

Sunday, Aug. 29, found us in
Marion where we preached for Rev
- 1 S.E. Watson at Bethel e+mrch. Although
it was raining, an appreciative
audience heard us. The sweet
singing by the choir made the
meeting lively. Rev. and Mrs. Watson
have two sweet daughters, Deborah
15 and Vivian 14. On Sun
(lay evening we were invited and
dined with Mr. and Mrs. H. L.
Jackson, who is a leading undertaker
of Marion. Brother Jackson
is a young man in his 30s. but he
has one of the most modern brick
houses it has been our pleasure to
see. in many years. Bro. Jackson is
big-hearted, he gives each -pastor
in Marion one dollar per week and
two dollars per week for each ru
ral pastor around Marion whose
salaries do not equal the city pastors.
Mrs. Jackson is the power
behind the throne and helps every
worthy cause. We also met Bros.
L. B. Gurley and James Withers.
Both are good churchmen, and are
standing by Bethel church.Rev.

1000 meals, cooked them well and r

commended us for being able t o t
handle our meeting without being 1
told by them, when even to rise
and sit. We are encouraged b y (
them that' there are unknown treas

and all the riches in the world
cannot begin to measure up to our i
unknown quantities. In each one j
of us there is an unworked mine,
the' only way we can work it is
by carrying through our ambitions,
forging ahead is the simple process
of yielding to our better im- I
