GUARDING AGAINST EVIL
Kcv. Dr. IV. H, I'carcc's Sermon Was
o Comprehensive Discourse.
SXAKES OP 0KLD AXI) SELF
. I'lcs for KcfntinR the World's
Caresses and Sinful Indifference to
Couseienco-Nced for Constant
Watchfulness and Care.
In Elm Park church last nlftht Rev.
Dr. V. H. I'earce preached a compre
hensive sermon which was a lea for
watching against the seductive evils of
self and the world. It was a discourse
which appealed to Individuals ruther
than to principles. r. Hearce's text
was from 1 Corinthians. vl:i:. "Watch
ye, stand fast In the faith." He said:
"The word of Ood teaches most clear
ly and with solemn vehememy that a
truly religious character Is the result of
Individual effort, earnest, constant and
watchful. Hut if you will go through
the ranks of men, you will find thut this
is not the Impression as it regards the
higher life; usually they ure content to
leave their moral condition to clrcum
slanceH; they have great faith tlmt
somehow the generul lnlluence of re
ligious Institutions will avail in their
behalf, and they will at last be sufllc
iently saved.
"I!ut this Is not the view of the New
Testament to which we must make our
final appeal, nor is It the conclusion of
bonest reverent thought, for they de
clare most positively that there Is u
great work to be performed In the soul;
that It is a continuous work, and one
that is to be accomplished In the pres
ence of foes, of evil spirit and power
ful temptations anion? men. It also
dec lares. that the work of guarding the
soul Is the most important of all things;
thut It requires the strongest faith;
the highest order of heroism unci the
steadiest exercise of nil the spiritual
forces within us. This being the case
we should deenly feel that it makes a
world of difference whether we do this
work by accident or by the earnest ap
plication of the real soul forces.
What Wc llnd.
"Ill looking at some of the reasons for,
this watchfulness we llnd. (irst of nil. it
is because of the conscious power of evil
within us; struggling hard and always
to overcome the lnlluence of good. There
is no argument like experience; it Is
the one supreme and all convincing ar
gument. And what is our experience
In regard to this matter? We made
vovs--solemn vow s every one of which
would immeasurably add to the grace,
the glory and the power of our present
and eternal life and every one of which
would have yielded a dividend of Joy
for every hour, und Hung a lustrous
light wherever our path meandered.
Every one of these vows was made in
behalf of our better nature and possibly
In response to the outcry of our bur
dened und ulliicted soul. Hut few, if
any, of these vows have been kept, und
why? Simply because the power of evil
In us was greater and stronger than
the lnlluence of good. We all under
Hand this in a greater or less degree.
It Is one of the plainest things ill our
experience, und perhaos some nf you
who hear me tonight feel the force of
it in the fearful wreck of character. In
the loss of purity or ill the sad forfeit
ure of all-lnoiriiig hope.
"And then the love and fascination of
the world Is something against which
we must watch. YTcalth, nuhougn sin
less in itself, Is a key thnt opens a thou
sand avenues for the grutillcatlon of the
senses. Pleasure in all of Its varied and
alluring forms permeates tne very life
of modern society; ambition lifts her
gnrlands, woven out of the brightest
and rarest earthly honors; praise of
nit n, llattery of the crowd and homage
to biauty and culture Indeed, wherever
you move, the world meets you In -otne
of Its alluring forms, and if you are not
watching with great vigilance thnt you
enter not Into tenip'ation. you are sure
to be entranpod by some of ts devices,
contaminated by some of its evil Influ
ences and die at lust a scarred or fet
tered soul.
Things We should Uunrd Acninst.
"It is very necessary that we watch
against our proncness to take the uver
uge of public sentiment or the concen
sus of a community or of a business or
social circle us (bid's opinion and ap
proval of us. Because our cnaracter Is
above reproach among men ntul because
the register of our acts und charities
ccrrei ;iond as far as we can see with
the most saintly, there is a disposition
to be suti.sHed with ourselves and take
this as Hod's view and standard of us.
It Is well to have a good record before
men. to stand without spot or blemish
before the bar of public opinion. This
Is praiseworthy and a crown of glory
to any man. und the man who says - e
does not care what other people think
or say ubout him. Is either a fool or has
lost all self-respect.
"Public opinion as a general thing
estimates a man by what he seems lo
be. It has only a standard of external
measurement. ' A man may be full of
faults und secret Iniquities, full of all
that pride und selfishness und sin can
engender and yet so possess himself and
so carry himself as not to permit It to
express' Itself In a forbidden or offensive
way. lint lod drops his plummet Into
the depths of the soul, takes Into ac
count all of the feelings and movtives
and purposes, and out of these he makes
up his estimate of us and decides our
destiny for weal or woe. Public opinion
as a general thing looks at one or two
show qualities that u man may happen
to possess, such as benevolence, or
kindness and fidelity to Important
trusts, and because of these excuses or
overlooks the many wrong things in his
life and accounts him good and praise
worthy. Public opinion has hid many
a man's appalling sins of fraud and de
ception and Impurity behind some char
ity for the community or burled them
out of sight beneath the benevolence
that founded a college or an asylum, or
that established a library or an art
gallery. Hut the Ood of eternal right
eousness and Infinite Justice takes the
whole life into account and reckons us
guilty of breaking the whole law if we
offend In the least, and he has declared
upon the altlrtnation of his word that
he will not nermit us to enter into the
habitation of the spotlessly pure be
cause of n few show qualities or because
of a righteousness accredited to us by
public opinion.
Seldom l ull from a True Life.
"We should also watch against the
gradual and almost Imperceptible going
away from goodness and Ood." Ilen but
seldom fall from a true and good life
like meteors through the sky with a
sudden Hash, but like the stars they
generally go gradually down. The love
of prayer becomes less and they scarce
ly perceive It; the love of meditating
upon the pure and divinely beautiful
becomes less, and they scarcely know
why; they are absent from the house of
Ood more frequently than before with
out any sneclal reason, and the love of
worldly pleasure and society becomes
stronger and they scarcely know why
and thus they drift and drift.
"The shores of religious peace and
safety lessen behind them; the voice of
warning dies away upon their ears: the
smooth sea becomes a strong tide,
then a sweenlng current and then at
lust a moaning inalestrom from whose
angry waves but few ever return. Then
for the sake of your present life, that
you may make beautiful for God and
glorious for others, watch: by the unspeakable-
victory that you may have
over death and the grave, watch: by
the splendor of the crown that you may
wear and the scepter of power that you
may hold, watch, and by the vast
wealth of heaven's Joys and friend
ships and tearless eyes and errorless

Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: V e the chartered members of the
I.onry Institute and Industrial school ef
Mayi'sville, S. C, have seen where you
published a letter from Itev. Stevenson
Hating things that are detrimental to the
Institute und of our presideni, general
manager and linam ial agent, Professor W.
.M. Holey, (he founder of the Institute, who
hus done more for this community than
any man who has ever been here. We
heartily endorse anil recommend him to
the generous public as a worthy gentle
man wbo"e nolile character Is worthy of
the highest confidence. In regard to the
appeal letter sent out by h!m we author
ised him to write this letter to make up
the dehclenry of the amount needed lo
carry out utir pl.m for the next year. If
this appeal has hern misunderstood we
desire lo correct It now.
Some of our kind friends have given the
amount for the support of a scholar the
balance of th" school year, and others
gave a part, so we sent out this letter lo
try und get the balance needed to get
in a stock of provisions tin t of the new
year, so is lo be aide to board the schol
ars In the institute. In regard to ihe
number of scholars, the stute register
Khuws an average ulteiidance of 1K lo II:'
scholars in our lurt term of school, und us
to our teachers not being paid a cent,
we send you our report for publication.
With reference lo the new building thut
looks like a barn, we just commenced the
building lust year and we need money to
complete It. We are teaching ill It, though.
Our whl: friends were thirteen years
building thel." church, and our school
house will be worth more than their
church, when eoninletu. There Is about
JI.imm iiefot on the school; that is the heavy
mortgage referred to.
.Mr. Holey has shown great ability from
a business standpoint as well as from a re.
IlKious one In running the store and farm,
so us to reulize whatever money we can
in uu honest way to curry on mo wors,
und we look forward to tile time wnen our
school will be self-supporting from the
business methods now practiced.
Our school Is undenominational ami we
have no special denomination to look lo
tor our support. We wrile this letter that
the friends who have been helping us so
nobly for the past live years will read this
letter und our report and Judge as lo
whether the money has been misappropri
ated or not. We believe it Is through these
effiii-ls the world Is mude belter. The
slate lenders us a little assistance by pay
ing une teacher for several months. .Mr.
Holey does not live in the school house,
but Is about three squares from there, und
has one teacher and scholar in the house
with him. Ills wife taught quite a while
in Ihe school before marrying. This was

SNOW 1'ROZE TO KAILS.
As a Kesitlt There Were Two Collision
on I'runklin Avenue.
The fall of snow yesterdav afternoon
was light, but it bothered the Traction
company. As soon as the Hakes fell the
cold atmosphere froze them to the
tracks and as the cur wheels passed
over the snowy lllm a glassy surfuce
was formed. This caused collisions.

down Franklin avenue ran Into another
car which was standing opposite the
dispatcher's office.
The fender of the Peckvllle rar was
smashed beyond repuir and u few plates
of glass were broken by the bump. No
one was Injured. Ten minutes after
ward there was a similar collision at
the same tdace. A Green Ridge car was
slightly damaged. The cars could not
be stopped because of the Icy rails, hence
the accidents.
