"You see the moon—well there's a la dy up there and there's also a man. I'm the lady and you're the man. Their profiles touch, like this, and er, they kiss each other." ^ My face was against his.

Christmas 1924 has passed into history. With many there was hap piness, hut death stalks abroad, car ing not what path he takes nor whose homes he enters, neither far the methods he uses, and many were made gad because of his? ruthless deal ings. Many have been called hence tf whom it has been var great pleasure to minister .'in %th4f * day, among thon Mr. J. T. Wil kins and Mr. y.§§ingletary. The Mst-nameamw T!w'a'*n!!§pital ir. Florence AUnda-y momntg, Dec. 29th and his remains were inferred in the cemetery at Singletary's X Roads church Tuesday, the 30th, about noon. The funeral services wore conducted by Rev. Mr. Simeons, caster of the Baptist church at Marion, of which Mr. Singletary was a member. The 'body was laid to rest with Woodmen honors. Mr. Singletary had lived in Marion for several years and was in the employ of theRaleigh and Char leston railroad company. He was a good man. To his bereaved raimny and to an the others we extend our sincere and profound sympathy. We rejoice * with cur Methodist brethren over their good fortune in becoming beneficiaries of so large s sum as Mr. Janes B. Duke has re cently given them. It is gratifying know that the executives of Trini ty coiiege agreed to change the name of Trinity to Duke university. Mr. Duke could have done no wiser or more becoming thing with his money than to give it iust as he did. We are grateful to him for remembering Fur man university in South Carolina so generously. He was also kind to the Presbyterians in his gift to Davidson, and not t<a forget the colored people in Charlotte who are trying to bring out the best there is in their race, is cause for much gratitude. .... Mr. Duke has done a beautifully magnanimous thing, and the greatest thing of the kind that has ever been done so far as we have been able to learn. This scribe is not among the number who believes that any Meth odist or any cne else will ever hang any crepe on their doors for accept ing his wonderful donation. We sym pathize with anybody who would im pugn his motives or who would re fuse to prchounce a benediction upon him. May his tribe increase. . No doubt President Coolidge feels good over the results of the election. To have gotten more votes than any ether presidential candidate who eve aspired for that high p-sition, and made as little effort as he did. shouid indeed be cause for great satisfaction. He seems to be a good man, and evi ; dently enjoys the confidence of the people over whom lie has been given the honor ta preside. We wish J-i him a prosperous administration.

Yet we know that there are mwty things in the world beyond our vision The sailor knows that the land too fag* away for him to see will he made visible to him hy the telescope, which brings far ob jects near. The human eye is limited, not only as to the distance which It can see hut also ns to the size of the object it can see. The microscope makes smalt objects visible Just as the tele scope makes distant objects visible. When the watchmaker has a delicate Job of repairing to do, he uses his microscope, so that he can see the tiny springs and whecfS plainly enough to work on them. The wheels are there, even if they are too small for his eyes to sec. They are just as real as larger objects, only we can't see them until the microscope has given addi tional power to our eyes. Tire microscope was invented in its present form in 1833 by throe men— Lister, an Englishman; Chevalier, a Frenchman, and Amici, an Italian. The microscope is used today In hundreds 'of factories and workshops, tind ia itiHiK]lch!?atde iff any work wldc^ is'too We for.the.Maided humM'eyo, tet thbtp are .HtM many peopM'^ho, t^egM'd aftyfMng seen through a micro-, scope as Imaginery rather than real. Tire microscope doesn't create any thing or imagine anything. It doesn't increase the slue of the object iooked at, any more than a telescope brings a distant ship any nearer. It merely increases the power of the human eye, so that It ean see an object too small to be seen by the unaided vision. One of the first discoveries made with the microscope was that there were many iiving things in this world too small for the human eye to see. These tiny living creatures were called "anlmalculae" or little animals by old Van Leenwenhock, the Dutch spec tacle maker, who first saw them In 1683. He thought they were animals. In 1878, SidiHot. a French scientist, called them "microbes" or "little lives." They arc little plants, very small but just as real as an oak tree or a cabbage plant.
