. i THE HINDRANCES OF LIFE
I If (By J. E. Briggs)
1. Tendency to Despise
Little Things.
A The Divine OraclP admonishes
F us?""Despise not the day of small
tlhings. Some whore the writer
has read a story which said: "Foi
the want of a nail, a shoe was
loat; for the want of a shoe ?
horse became disabled; for the
want of a horse the king lost the
battle".
Everything big in the world to?
day started from something very
y small. The mighty oak came from
a small acorn. A thousand for
i e^ts are wrapped^p in a tiny a-"
t . corn. - The Christian church had
?f a most insignificant beginning.
^ John Wanamaker walked , four
4 miles to Philadelphia every day.
an worked in a book store for
t one dollar and twenty-five cents
i a week. From his unpromising
beginning he becamP the mci
?j? timiifc-prince ana operated one ol
the world's greatest departmental
, | stores.
Fied Douglass started life with
,j. next to nothing. For he did not
even own his body7 "His master
"pledge him for debt before Fred
. was born.
Booker T. Washington, the
Apostle of Industrial Education
the founder of Tuskegeer and the
foremost educator that the South
has produced in a hundred yehrs,
got his start in life by carefully
_ sweeping a room.
Whatever your task might be,
perform it nobly and thoroughly.
-He who'slights the small things
in life, he who fails to discharge
the little duties well, shall not
ever get the chance to do some
*1 thing great.
A poor door-keeper, an unreliable
janitor, a lazy boot-black
will never make successful, useful
men. It is just not in this crowd
ri to make good in thP world. They
,v ?themselves are the greatest enemies
to their own progress and
'1 , achievement.
\ " I
2. The Tendency to Become
Discouraged Over Difficulties
"There is no royal road to success".
Success is not an accident, J
--it is an achievement. Thp price!
of aeroninlishmpnt i? Hiliopor>/*n I
and sacrifice.
i "The heights of great men,
Reached and kept,
Were not -obtained by sudden
? fltgm; ?'?" ^
..They, whiln their companions
slept,,
Were toiling upwards in the
night"/
I
One day a kind-hearted man
^ saw a beautiful butterfly struggling
to fiee itself from its cocoon;
it was held"*fast by just a
little piece of web; the man in orIder
to free the.struggling insect,
.. cut the web; the butterfly gained
its freedom, but last its life. The
little creature lived a very little
time after securing his liberty.
Nature had ordained that this insect
was to otain strength and
power to meet the conflicts and
^oppositions of life by that strug"gle
which was required of it in
freeing itself from that cocoon.
To reach the starting place- oT
the poox-est boy in our land today,
Fred Douglass had to climb
at his birth as far as the distance
which the poorest boy must as
cend to become the president ol
the United States. Douglass only
saw his mother two or three times
and then in the night, when she
would travel twelve miles to be
with him an hour, returning in
time to go into the field at sunYise.
^Douglass had no time to
study, for he had no teachers, and
the rules of the plantation forbade
slaves to learn to read and to
write. But somehow, unnoticed
by his master, he managed to
learn the alphabet from scraps of
paper and patent medicine alma'
nacs. Douglass rose frq^n obscurity
and poverty to usefulness
and renown"?Pushing to the
Front --Marden.
Mohomet said: "The mountains
shall go to thP mountains."
Yonder ai> the heights, if you
would scale them, climb, however
rugged and rough the climbing.
The worthwhile things of life are
only had by effort, struggle, and
sacrifice.
3. The Tendency to Want
To Walk by Sight.
"Nothing ventured nothing
gained". The fellow who is afraid
to venture, is the fellow who is
afraid to succeed. Because he can
not see his way clear from beginning
to end, he rests upon his
less. He plays around the shore,
catching minnows and tad-poles.
Deep sea fishing has no appeal
for him. The wild, the unexplored
the unknown does not' Ture
him on. . "Launch out linto_the
deep and let down your nets for
*r~ a draught".
John Mark, starting opt .with
Paul and Barnabas, to preach the
gospel- to the Asiatic heathen,
lost his nerve before the party
had gone very far; at Perga Mark
thought about the perils of the
* journey and quit. He could not
see his way out. Too much peril
and difficulty in missionary Work
for John Mark. This young man
was a failure before he started.
The hesitators and the fainthearted
have never done anything
much in the world. We certainly
can not get very, far in life if we
will only venture as far as We can
see. The man, who takes a chance
is the man, as a rule, who makes
good.
Life itself is a gamble so to
speak. How far would you or 1
get, if we would not make, a step
until we saw just where wP were
going? Dare to be a pioneer, a
, trail-blazer, a path-finder.
Men and women of faith and
ventures are the achievers of life
and the miracle-workers. Impos

SUMMER SCHOOL CLOSES M<
SUCCESSFUL YEAR
July 21 marked the close of one an
of the most successful summers Hr
experienced by the Piedmont Summer
school, under the direction of
its Director, Prof. S. L. Finley. |nt
Despite the stormy weather, an
appreciative audience witnessed
the closing exercise Thursday nite wtl
under the direction of Mrs. Addie mt
McWhirter. _ be?
This program featured "The cai
Calendar", a play portraying very th<
vividly each month of the 'year. ?f
The first scene_ opened with 12
small children dressed in "nities" tet
and carrying candles and , pla-* 88<
cards suggesting ~A Happy New ou
Year. May presented the May leu
Queen and her 12. attendants and ha
the plating of the May Pole. N?t
to be forgotten was July display- ceI
ing girls in bathing and play suits es1
and beach wear playing before a
huge beach painted sea-shore Tu
scene In front of which was plac-, ed
ed 6 beautiful beach chairs. Out- hv
standing also was October, fea- M.
turing the Virginia Reel. The of
spacious gym made possible each ?J?
of the 12 beautiful scenes, and the Su
soft lights and appropriate music an
added the desired effect. ' '> on
^Friday was Visitors Day. The Ph
school?was?then?opeiwd to the
community to view the work done ?f
by. the student teachers during the
six weeks. A visit to Miss Fleta en
Williams' room would suggest to
a visitor a nature study project fei
as an outgrowth of the work as
done in Education I, II and III. ou
Upon entering Miss D. E. SP
Nance's room one would recognize an
that the study of T. B., Syphillis, fch<
Pneumonia and other diseases and La
health situations had been made. an
This was evidenced through minia
ture sanatorium, posters, book- ba
lets, a collection of health mater- ws
ial, and other displays. sh
Outstanding in the Civics, His- th
tory and English room was a triple
sandtable project showing the Ke
life of Prof. Finley, from boy- of
hood to his present achievements, sis
The project included logcabins lei
showing his birthplace, first school an
attended, first church attended and at
a miniature imitation brick structuie
of the new Finley High sii
school. This was only- a small L.
part of the work done by Mrs. flo
Ruth C. Pride's classes. na
Definitely " noticeabl'e^lfff ' Miss sh
Dovey Johnson's roomiwas _the
study of Milk. Beautifully done ha
was a life-size cow and calf made lal
from papia machia and painted wi
brown and white. Other projects lir
included clay cows and busts of Ac
Louis Pasteur, milk churns and a ha
sandtable reproduction of the po
Gurnsey Dairy of Rock Hill, made mi
of clay and natural stones. fc
A visit to the Laboratory school wl
conducted by (Miss Hilda V. Gray- T1
son, immediately suggested the in:
study of a Kitchen Unit. Thex-e ed
th<> Xt-achers had built a usuable pr
kitchen furnished with chairs, ta- us
ble, cabinet, natural colored clay
model foods, curtains, etc. Other so
units were iSouth Carolina, dis- w<
playing a made play, scrapbooks, ua

is a gamble, a venture.
4. Too Many of us Are.Slaves
To th? Present
C h
With most people present ease jn
and comfort and pleasure out- -j,
weigh future possible benefits wj.
Here is their philosophy of life: w
;'Eat, drink, and be merry, tomor- .
row you may die". This tribe ..
takes no serious thought of the ?
future. In fact, there is not past
or future in their scheme of ar<
things, all is present. f?'
This pleasure-mad rabble says: Ml
"TKo riQat io
a i.v- pwov 10 ucnu, I.IIC iUVUie 13
not yet bom, therefore, the only
life that I know is the present,
and I am certainly going to en- Pa
joy it to the fullest". One of the c'11
biggest fools in the world is the
man who takes no thought for the Ch
future.
The big, the useful, the successful
men and women are the forward-looking.
In the present they he
lay up a store of reserved strength on
and power so that they may 1
wrought and achieve in the fu- s>v
ture. The opportunities and achievcments
of today for them arp Hi
stepping-stones to greater accom- ch
plis'hments of tomorrow. JP(

:CLELLAND PRESBYTERY
The Sabbath school convention
d conference of McClelland
esbytery met at Harbison insti:e,
Irnro, South Carolina.
We regret very much that the
antile paralysis, which is spread
f our state, decreased our hum[ '
of delegates, but we are overlelmingly
happy to say that our
ieting was the best that has
en for quite awhile when it
mes to the work of the classes
a interest, and the consistency
everything in general.
We had- an excellent group of
ichers who seemed to be interLed
in what they were to give
r to those who were there to
irn and to benefit by what they
d to learn, and who came to the
issroom each day with some intitive
that captivated our inter;
and attention.
At our opening meeting ' on
lesday night, July 18, we listento
an interesting address deered
by our President, Mrs. S.
Young, on the responsibilities
a leader. Afterward, Mr. J. T.
nes, who is now Supervisor of
inday schools for the Catawba
d Atlantic Synods, addressed us
the problem of the young peoi
an its solution. The address
is taken in so well that members
the delegation used it quite oln
in tho classroom as a refer
ce. ?-? _
Wednesday is a day of the con.ence
which Will be remembered
one of the "mighty days" of
r lives. We went to our reective
classes in the morning,
d after dinner we climbed into
e Harbison bus and rode out to
ike Murray to. have a jolly'time
d to worship God with nature.
We roamed up and down the
nks of the . lake watching the
ives and waters sweep to the
ores, as the breezes whirled
emselves- around us.
At six o'clock we gathered tother
to enjoy another pleasure
life?eating. Our menu" conted
of cool, refreshing drinks of
monade, delicious sandwiches
d cookies of a melting temperure
when brought to the lips.
When we had satisfied our dee
for food, we. follewed Rev. E.
McAdams across the road and
und comfortable seats on the
tural carpet of the earth, to wor
ip and be with God.
It seemed that the breezes that
d deserted"the waves" of " the
ke and swept by us on their
ly to places unknown to us, had
igeied awhile around Rev. Maclams
and had filled his soul with
ppiness, love and wisdom of the
