Church Street Church Mr. Editor:—I can say, without doubt, we were greatly bleated during our services on Sunday, August 5th. God’s Spirit was preseut with us. The Rev. A. F. Graham read the 6th chapter of Galatiaos, and took for his text the 9th verse, ‘‘And let us not be weary in well doing: for iu due season we shall reap, if we faint not.” First, he showed that serving God faithfully, and doing right to our neigh bor, is certainly doiug well. He spoke in his sermon of the rrce question, urg ing his people to do right and pray much. I hope that God will put it in to the hearts of his ministers to .preach such sermon to their congregations. At 8: 30 P. M. the Rev. Graham preached from a text found in Gen, 42: 36, “All these things are against me.” We were urged not to become fainthearted when things do not go as we would like for them to go, but trust God, and work manfully, knowing that God, who brought a blessing to Jacob, will not in his providence torget us in the wilderness. We in our church work are still moving on. Two members were added to the Christian Endeavor not long since, and one young man taken under the care of the session. Remember us in your prayers.

The church called i'.s sew pastor, Rev. Frank M. Hyder, June 1st. Since that tin.e seven have teen added to.tbft, roll of membership, and one baptised. The congregation'gains with each ser vice. A tendency to liberality is one of the marked features of the Collec tions. The poor are being sought «. ut and^ their real needs relieved as far as thuj is possible. The. Women’s M issionarjjj Society, with Mrs. Jennie White Prei^l dent and Mrs. Maggie Saxon Treasurer,' is being reorganized, and through this society the church will turn its eyes to the heathen millions who have not yet learned of God nor of the salvation' which be has promised in his Son Jes us Christ. Thus along all lines of Christ ian activity the churcn is moving. Chnst church stands for an intelli gent and definite idea in religion, be lieving ihat God in his omniscience teaches man by intelligent motives ad dressed tQ his reason and understand ing. With this truth ever in view Christ church aims to become a great positive force for good.in the commun ity, and to this ^pd $ be asks the pray ers of all who are obedient to the Lord Jesus. The church is providentially bles«ed in having as its elders such Christian men as Mr. Chas Raines, Prof. H. B. Rice and Mr. W. U. Smith. The church engaged the services of Prof, Cbas. Winterwood, an elocution ist national reputation, who recited a few of his choicest selections to a very appreciative audience. A small admission fee was asked at the door] from which the church realized a neat' little sum. S. Cape Fear S. S. Convention.

Little Miss Louise Wright, of Golds boro, recited “Rock of Ages” in a most creditable manner. Rev. J. H. Sampson, of Pikeville,. and Mrs. C. A. E.

Battle, of Wilson, read very commendable and creditable papers on “The Model Sunday School.” These Scotiaites showed plainly the work “8cotia” is doing for the girls of the race. Every Sabbath school in this country would have been benefit ted if it had orily heard these papers. Miss Rena Washington, of Burgaw, read a creditable paper on “The Influ ence of the Sabbath School.” The election of officers for the ensu iug term was as follows: President, Rev. J. J.
