One out of-every 20 banks have closed, he says. One* out of every 200 schools have shut up. But only one church out of 2,000 I has fallen by the wayside. “It is a high compliment to the preach- 1 er and to his church,” Says the Review, “that it remains open even though in some cases payments have ceased, and in many instances salaries have been greatly re receive Ashe Banks Open Opening of the Bank of Ashe at Jef ferson last week placed Ashe county in ^^d the ministers do not the favored class of counties which havejjj^ij .^y^s promised.
