Colquitt vs Brinson
i Friday the Brinson base Lail
team came over and crossed bate
with Colquitt.
The game was interesting
throughout. Cowart started the
game for Colquitt, but was remov
ed on account of his arm after two
innings. Cook wascalledand last
ed only four innings] when he was
•'knocked oft the block.” Miller
I the best Colquitt has seen for some
titre, was “Johme on the spot,’’
both with stick and in the box.
In the 7th inning, Hunter’s slab
men rallied, and the famous “Don
alsonvilie terror”, Alver Cordell,
went just as Cook did, and Colquitt
made the score 11 to (>.
This was the third victoiy for
the home boys, they having won
every game played this season.
Base ball is a national sport, and
Colquitt has some good material,
so why can’t we have a good team.

METHODS OF BIBLE STUDY
BY M. M. PARKS.
There are today five hundred
million copies of the Bible in cir
culation, and during 1914 and to
date, the American Bible Society
has put over two million of these
copies in the hands of the reading
world. There are three phases of
the study and teaching of the Bible.
First, a knowledge of the Bible,
next a knowledge of the child that
you are teaching, i'S home sur
rounding, etc., then the equipment
for the teaching of its lessons.
Every School Should Have.
1. A library in the Sun Jay school
for the information of the teachers,
composed of the writing of the best
Bible students of the universe.
2. All the helps that can be had,
black boards, charts, picture, maps
of the old country, and special
lessons in geography of the old
country; and the travels of
Christ.
3. Hand work, drawings and il
lustrations explaining the lessons
are necessary. The most permi
nent impressions are made through
the eye, not the ear.
4. Geography lessons of the old
country given in open school or to
the class by maps and illustrations.
5. History of the Bible by spec
ial study by some apt person de
hvered in open school.
6 Literature of the Bible. Beau
tiful stories of the Bible, suggest
ing the book of Ruth, story of
Jonathan and David, the proverbs
of Soloman, the Pslams of David
and story of Joseph.
7. Memorizing of the different
passages of the Bible and the offer
ing of rewards for these accom
plishments.
JNO. L. ALEX ANDER ON
THE HOME & SUNDAY
SCHOOL.
Two of the biggest things in the
world are theCHILD and the BI
BLE, the child first and then the
Bible.
( THE HOME,
( THE FATHER,
God Made t THE MOTHER
1 THE CHILD.
What ever the home does r.otdo
for the boys and girls, the Sunday
school must do it, We are today
raising Godless boys and girls, on
account of Godless homes. These
are not really homes for the child.
In fact the boy or girl raised in a
Godless home, is in a sense an or
phan so far ae God’s purpose of a
fattier and mother is concerned.
God did not give us children just
to feed and clothe, this is a sec
ondary duty we owe the child, and
if we do not give the Godly train
ing as we should do it, we are
robbers, and that from a fund more
valuable than all the money in the
world.
There is no class of robery in
the human family more prevalent
than that of robbing the child, and
we have practiced it until we have
almost come to the point we be-
lieve it is a credit. vVe never con
sult his feeling on a matter, even
though he is human just as we are.
We never stop to think how th* l
little fellow looks at the position
we have taken ou a matter. We
dr* not stop to let him understand
why he should or should not do a
thing, we just simply command his
abstiuanee from it. and punish him
if he does it. Therefore, robbing
him first, of what he feels is his
privilege, and next the knowledge
that he should not do it because it
will nopplense Goj, and does not
canfornrfb the regulation of decent
human society.
Therefore, if we are to be the
parent that God intended us to be,
the teacher that God must have us,
we must look to the childish ideas
of our subjects. We must strive
to see as they see, and conform our
teachings to their ability to
grasp.
Here the speaker related one in
stance occurring in Ins own home
as follows; Once when I hadstirt
ed home to dinner I was passing a
toy store, them I saw a small tqy
locomotive. I thought of my boy,
stepped in and bought the toy for
him, carrying it home. Upon my
arrival I opened the toy and was
made bi.ppy to see his little eyes
sparkle. While watched him play
with the toy, my wife went in the
dining room to prepare dinner
Presently she came back to the
door and announced that dinner
was ready. 1 didn’t make any
move to go dinner for I was watch
ing the boy. He was so overjoyed
with his toy that if he heard her
announcement he was not aware ol
if. She went back and in a few
minutes she came agaiu and sain.
•‘DINNER.” I still did not mov*
and neither did the boy. Finally
she came again and said dinner is
ready. She just picked up the toy
from the child without one word
and placed it out of his reach over
on the sideboard, and placed his
chair and him in it. 1 wa» almost
horror stricken to see how the little
fellow was hurt. I was sorry for
him and was sorry for my wife, be
cause he did not understand why
she had done as she did, and she
hud not thought of the manner she
had unthoughtedly robbed him ot
his pleasure, and so far as the child
knew, without cause. Then in all
kindness I simply said ‘Robber.’
She looked me as though 1 had
shot her. She knew that I was not
quarreling because I never had;
but in her amazement she ask me
what I meant, and I simply repea
ted the word ‘Robber.’ Again she
asked to explain, and I told her
that she had robbed the child of
his toy because ehe was larger and
stronger than he was. She walked
up to him and had taken it with
out a word of explanation, and he
was not allowed the privilege of
asking why. I told her that the
next time she did anything that
didn’t just suit me, I was going to
take the diamond ring that 1 gave
her away from her, because 1 was
stronger than ehe was, and didn’t
have to ask her anything about it,
or explain to her why I was doing
it. Then I called her attention to
the method the train robber went
after the money and valuables of
passengers without explanation,
and the way he took it, and with
no regard for wnat we thought of
the way that be did it, and asked
her what was the difference. In
each case it was a case of the
stronger opperating on the weak
simply because he was the stronger,
not consulting the thoughts of the
weaker or his wishes; and she
could not explain that there was
any difference. Neither could I
see it, neither than can you see it
when you look at it in the right
way.-
