Thomas, of Con cord, President of Con ference,'Preaches on “The Revealed Christ.” The final session of the Southern Conference of the United Evangelical i I Lutheran Synod of North Carolina, J winch is being held at St. Johns' Luth-, • erg" Church j n the county, will be. i held this afternoon, j The Tuesday afternoon session of, I the conference was devoted to several 1 discussions under the geueral subject |of “Our Female Deaconate.” Rev. J. IV. Link spoke on “Spiritual Au thority” : Rev. A. M. Hoffman on “Historical Precedents”; Mrs. Fred Shepherd on "The Garb and the Vow”; Rev. D. H. Kohn on 'The Day Xeeds of Deaconate Work”; and Mrs. J. F. Crigler addressed the eon femtice on •‘Correlation of Deaconess Wdrk With Other Female Activities id the Church.” At the Tuesday evening session Rev. F. M. Spcagle had charge of the de votional service and spoke on "The Unity of the Spirit.” Rev. D. H. Kohn. D. D„ of Mount Holly, was elected president of the itimference to succeed Rev. L. A. Thomas, of Concord. Mr. Thomas, the retiring president, preached at the Wednesday morning session on the subject of “The Revealed Christ” using for his text John 4 ;42, “In this verse John records the whole Gospel and a whole life mis sion in one. A whole Gospel because there is revealed and fulfilled the true Christ.” Mr. Thomas said in l)i« in troduction. That Christ is revealed by the breadth of his contact was the first general head of Mr. Thomas' sermon. “Christ knowns no racial confines. He stops to rest beside the well, the property of another race. He asks a drink of a woman who was a Samar itan. He makes a promise to an in dividual like unto those which became to make to every Jew. He offers the same drink, He proposes the same salvation. And why does He ex tenuate in this manner? He knows no bonds of the Hash; He recognizes no boundary lines of countries. He lU'oposes Himself as the God of all people.” the minister stated. ! "Christ is revealed when He speaks of the sustenance of life." declared Mr. Thomas. “He refuses to allow I meat and drink to interfere with His higher meat. "Christ is revealed when He ac cepts the naan' of Saviour. Because it is what He is. ‘And His name shall be called Jesus for He shall sjive His people.’ He caiue armed With a name and. yea and more than al name. The strongest thing is love armed with celestial armour. ; “There is- needed a more and deep ejr communion with Christ, a more vivid realization of His lot* and grace for ourselves. Anti then we need tp go under the two-fold stimulus of His love followed by His command. Which ut the bottom are one,” said Mr. Thomas. _ "Finally Christ is revealed for His undisputed right to commission. The only motive hack of this commission is Himself. The task is somehow Wrapi»ed up in the command The motive always overtowers a mere com mand. For there must be found an ideal that goes beloiid the mere opi*ir tunity to exercise authority.” The morning session today was opened by Reverend H.» W. Jeff coat, pastor of St. Mnrtins Church, Albe marle, who conducted the devotional exercises. This was followed by a business session at which several com mittees made re]iorts of different phases of church work. At 10 o'clock two sjieakcrs gave addresses on the .general subject of .“KcclesSretioal Un selfishness.” . Rev. C. K. Rhodes, of Jiincolnton, spoke on the "Unselfish jfjongregatioir and l’vof. G. F. Mc- Allister, president of Mt. I'leasant I'ollegiate Institute, sjioke on "The Unselfish Pastor.” . The afternoon services were sched uled to open at 2 :20 o'clock with Rev. {). A. Trexlar, of Granite Falls, con dkicting the devotional exercises. The afternoon meeting was to be featured by several addresses under the general topic of "Some Problems in Modern yiiought.” Rev. Dorus T. Rudisell. of Dallas, is to make u talk on ‘The- Place of tiie Intellect in Matters of ifeligion"; Rev. J. F. Crigler. D. I)., bf St. Marks Church. Charlotte, will talk oif "The Creation Story and Science"; and Rev. John L.

Unit-, ed States. The ban on the shipment through the mail of'such firearm* results from a law passed at the la«t session of Congress, the law becoming effective May 11th. Postmaster J. F. Harris Tuesday called attention to Section 478 1-2 at the postal cojle, which amends postal Ipn and regulations of 1924 in re spect tp the mailability of firearma. The amendment was enaeted February Btb. Provisions or the amended regula tions are briefly that no firearms cap able of being concealed can be carried through the mails unless the w-eapou is being transported to officers of vari-- ous national military organizations to be used- in their bfficial duty; or to officers of the' United States or of various states and territories to he lmed in the process of serving war rants of arrest or mitimus of committ ment; or to watchmen or guards \vhose official duty is to protect and guard property of the United States, or va rious states and individuals. •It Is also provided that such fire arms may be mailed to bonafide man ufacturers of and dealers in firearma. Penalty for violation of the new pro visions is a fine not exceeding SI,OOB, or two years maximum iitiprisoumeut, or both. All parcels containing coucealable firearms which can be mailed under conditionn of special provisions must hp plainly and clearly labeled “Fire Anns” with the class of expeetion for mailing stated. It is believed by city and county officials that the new postal regula tions will prove valuable in combatting the promiscuous carrying of pistols and revolve'rs in this county. There is a State law aguiisU selling con cealable weapons in North Carolina except to bona fide officers of the law’ hr persons wtio secure permits froth cleks of Superior Court. Because of this law it is known that most firearms purchased in this state in recent years have come through the’ mails. Firearms of the prohibited sort are yet available through express chan nels. it was pointed out. hut it is be lieved that such methods of trans portation will not prove as widely used as mail facilities.

J. C. Roncin, pgstor of the First Itwabyterian Church," delivered a ppw er#p( sermon as the vesper service on Rlttitliiv afternoon. He had for h : « subjc "Mothers and Mother’s Day,” The sermon of Dr. Rowan is as f«l --lowa: “As is the mother. *o is her daugh ter.”- Kzekial 16:44. It seems »to me that a very, very eftmam'i saying today is this: “Boys take after their mothers, but girls take after their fathers.” The Bible, hWwrvt-r, says this: “As is the mother, sp :<« her daughter." The Bible, mark #|n, mothers, after saying that goes on forthwith to say that th^”wicked ness slid the destruction of Sodom were traceable principally to mothers. Listen as I quote from the Bible! “As is the mother, y<o is her daughter. Thou •rt-tliy mother’s daughter, that loath eth her luisband and her children ; ahd tW>u art the sister of thy sisters, which lflatbed their husbands and the!r chil dren. Thy younger sister, that dwell eth at thy right hand, is Bodom and hen- daughters. BrfioW this was the iniquity of thy sister, Sodom, pride, tfillness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her adn in her daugh ters. neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy. And were haughty, aud committed aboiirnation 6efore me. therefore I took them away- as I saw good.” The Hibli. I say again, awert* that the wickedness and the destruction of Sod om were traceable principally to Mothers. Tiie wickedness of Sodom tods pride, fullness of bread, abund ance of idleness, uncharitableness, haughtiness, abomination before the : You don't like nor believe what I ltkve just speken? You don’t agree vrith me? If you don't like nor agree with me, yon don’t like nor believe nbr agree with the Bible! |“As is the mother, so is here daugh ter." We have considered very briefly the fearfulness, and the horror of the dsrk side of this picture which ought to humble every mother «nd give her lams' before God ami His great law of; cause and effect. This picture, however, lias a bright side—a bright side as bright as the dark Side is dark. Listen as I quote again from the Bi ble! "She shall be « mother of na |lwi K . kings of people shall he of her," It is far more noble and glorious, mprk you. to be the mothers of nations than ; t is to be the so-called reform ed of nations, neglecting husbands ami children and home and the duty aud privilege of motherhood—no mat ter how high sounding may be the «5£? l ' s which are given to their re ftrhnitor.v clubs and their reformatory organizations. ysow, some—-especially some of you Wfes-may be )Hindering right now tliib question: Are you trying to put the'responsibility for everything that "go** wrong" upon us women? Cer tainly not! I am trying to put there, however, some real glory rather than the conspicuous but eheap bowers of an imagi reformation. I am try ing to get you to recoguhte that the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world for weal or for woe and to a degrto that you have not begun to ap preciate ami value. This brings us to our subject for today which is. Mother's Day and Mothers. L« us. in the first place, if you please, trace just as briefly as we can the,history of the development of Mothers I)ajr—a day which every one wlm has the marks of a man in him delights to observe. Alth»wg:i the formal designation of a definite day as Mother's Day was comparatively re cent in this country of ours, yet the custom of displaying filial veneration date* back to antiquity. Authorities tell us that the earliest record of for mal mother-worship lies in the stories of the ceremonies by which Rhea “the great mother of the gods" was wor shipped in Asia Minor. In this wor ship, however. it was not so much the lender maternal aspect which claimed uttejitkm as the power and majesty of motherhood. The worship of Rhea was intro duced-into Home through Greece a mutt two hundred years before Christ. There it was held on the Ides of Marat, and the people made offerings hi the temple. These offerings in the temple served to elevate motherhood into something of the dignity by which It is rightfully characterised. With the advent of the Christian i the f stival still retained its old forma, but there was injected into it » '"’tt s’iirit. From the celebration of Piigab rites in honor of Rhea there developed an observance in honor of MotM* Church. In this celebration it Is-canie toe custom on Mid-Lent Bun-! duy for the faithful to visit the churches in which they were baptised, hearing gifts for the altar- | Again and perhaps growing out of i hc»e observances to which I hare al i rady referred together, perhaps, with Uubettadn, the worship of the Virgin To a degree that wc\perhaps- bare' never recognized, there hits developed miriof all those observances what we nil Mother's Day—a day on which mothers »re more properly honored rad venerated—-a day which mn.na.. b-s “a Sjmto of hto spread recognition about the year of AT REGm'ER —I Grand Jury Suggested That Ofiffr of. Rmmlmf nfDriniW Elliott Be Enlarged For! the Keeping of Records, j It is known that changes to offices in the court house have been infer, mally. riiaeuMgd by county officials, but so far no definite notion in the matter has been taken. Tho April grand jufiy iu its report recommended that tho office of Regia ter of Deeds L. V. Elliott be enlarged ; and the informal discissions so far I have centered around such a recom mendation. However, since the coun ty auditor and tax supervisor will need an office it is probable that the registers office will not be enlarged at the present. If has been suggested, it was learned, that hereafter the County Superintend ent of Education be quartered in the county building on Church street, making office in the court house now occupied by the superintendent avi4ob!e for other officers. Part of this office would be given over to the register •of deeds, under the tentative plans, and the remaind er separated into a smaller office. However, since Auditor Jofin L. Mil ler must be quartered in the court bouse, and- must have sufficient filing space for many records and reports, it is probable that be will be given the office now occupied by-the county school superintendent and Register of Deeds Elliott's office will not be enlarged. . It is undeiMtood that county officials arc not ye( decided about the changes, and it may -be that some other plan will be adopted whereby all of. the officers can be quartered with suffi cient space for egch, , , "Records in-my office arc increas ing each year, of course.” Mr. Elliott stated, "and these records, all pub lic papers, must be retained,' but I can get along all right at present, without additional space. It is mjt feasible to add to the court ho,Use' at this time, and as Mr. Miller SSs te have an office in the court lif&M, and an office of some sise, it is prob able that we will remain In the same quarters for the present at least.’* County officials have not ilofiuitd.v announced that the superintendent/of public instruction for the county will be quartered hereafter in the county building hut it is known that such a plan has been discussed.
