The correspondent appreciates the “words of true encouragement” on the editorial page of the Pilot last week. Quite proudly, and with much appreci ation, do I wear that feather in my cap.

Miss Emma Wilson, of Manley, re turned home Sunday after a visit to relatives on Route 2. Speaking of reminiscences—and I had this one in mind last week—^when Rev. L. H. Joyner, who is a Methodist preacher, and a jolly good fellow with al, was called to Cypress Presbyterian church to cond.iict the funeral ser vices of Miss Christian Smith, I re marked to my chum and neighbor, Mrs. Betsy Ann McFayden, that I was under the impression that the Smiths were Presbyterians, she re plied “Oh no! Jack Smith and all his family were staunch Methodists, and used to belong to Old Shallow Well church.” That recalled the only time I ever remember attending ser vices at that church; I went with my mother and aunt from my childhood home near where is now' the town of Vass. I remember the preacher’s name was Plyler; he was a fair-hair ed man, and he wore a gray suit. Be fore he began to preach, he stood up in the pulpit and sang a solo, keeping time with his foot. Going home I told my mother the preacher patted his foot! I have never heard the song since, but I learned the chorus that day, and could sing it: “And I’ll sing Hallelujah, • And you’ll sing Hallelujah, And we’ll all sing Hallelujah When we arrive at home.” Miss Flora McCrummen shouted; she didn’t jump up and cavort around the room, but sat in her seat, clapped her hands and said “Ha! Ha! Ha! Glory!” Ah, those must have been the days when the people had “The Old Time Religion,” and were not ashamed to own it. VASS MERCANTILE COMPANY ' ’ !
