J.VNK.MSY I'HM \I IJtllc Washington In view of the fact that ar rangements have been made for an evangelistic campaign in Elizabeth City this fall to be conducted by Evangelist M. !?'. Ham and his co-workers. The Advance believes that the fol lowing account of -th (.? closing lust Sunday of a meeting in our neighbor city of \\ a?hington similar to the one which it i< planned to hold here will bo in terest ins; : TwelJ'i* thousand |>?o|?I?\. nil lionet; thor?- w a s :i hi'jivy downpour jir:?ct!-j cally nil ?l:i > . stt t ? tin- tliir groat rollafnus ??'rvir? s in tly Tal< ernncl?> Sunday wliirli proved to l the banner day of tin- Ham-Kanm^ ca nipainjj. Sunday night 1 li ? hiVruaHo was packed with anxious list' :>ors to hoar the farewell message' of the ??vnnno list from t li* ? thonie: "How Shall We Kscnpe If \NV Neglect So On'al a Salvation." The closing message wan a fitting ca pstone of a fs?*r !??? of discourses the like of which have never been hoard in this commun Itv. Following t l?o sermon tin- Invi tation was given and hundreds rani" forward and cons? crat? d their HVes for hotter and nobler t hints. ^ Sunday morning at the II o'clock hour Mr. Hani fpoke from the then "The Fruit of the Spirit." In th" afternoon at :! o'clock, his subject ?was, "Lessons for This Ate Drawn from the sinking of the Titanic." , It seems as If the evangelist su mounted, the heights on the ? nf his departure, for h? has not Fpo! on : at any time during the seven week "ftknipalKn more p?.w< r. With his heart search fit? truths 1" ?-n- 1 tered the very l'ecesse.s of oik '1 thought with the result thai tlie clos ing day of tin1 meeting proved to he , a glorious clihiax to a campaign ? which has shaken the v rv f? unda- " tions of Washington. Old and young. : rich and - poor have alike been blessed and regenerated. The citv i has been purged a* n< v? r before in its history. All classes of folk have been made to see the error of their past lives and resolved to turn over ( a new leaf. The different pastors of the citv ( spoke words of the highest praise j for Mr. Ham and his party and of i the wonderful work for the Master accomplished. At the afternoon ser vice John H. Sparrow in the name of the Vanguard Class of the First Presbyterian Church, the members of the class being present in a body, thanked Mr. Ham for his coming to Washington and for the work wrought as a result of his seven j weeks of labor. After the services people of all i ages and creeds flocked to the plat- i form and grasped the hand of the ; Ham-Ramsey party, wishing them ; Cod speed. Thus came to a close a religious J campaign the like of which has nev er been witnessed In Washington. For the past two weeks it seemed as If a wave of righteousness* was sweeping the entire city. The light j of a new day has dawned. Wash ington is now a new city. Hundreds will Join the respective churches of the city next Sunday as a result of the great religious movement. The Ham-Ramsey party will never he for gotten in Washington. Worth Locking l?t?? Elizabeth 3!ty is not a pay roll town, but Elizabeth City has never been averse to tfoin?' outf-after new industry when the opportunity presents itself. And the new industries that ( have lieen brought to the city it. the past h?ve added to its re sources and material prosperity in striking degree ? a degree that would be realized most keenly if the industrial enter prises of the city were to shut down tomorrow. Lumber mills, hosiery mills, shipyards, iron works, and every workshop; ? all these add their quota to Eliz abeth City's wealth and spend ing power. Today a new industry seems1 to l>e knocking at Elizabeth (pity's door, and a highly desir abJe industry at that, ? an auto mobile factory which, if success ful, would at once employ high class labor and help to keep a? home part of the money that goes out of Elizabeth City and its section every year for auto mobiles. To pass this proposition un without any investigation what ever would certainly be the height of folly. And yet, so fa'' as you are concerned, that is what will be done if you fail to attend the meeting at the Cham fber of Commerce rooms tonight. The Advance hopes that in this matter Kli/.al*t!i City will show its custom;*. ry alertness. WintSur tin.' Old Home Town does ?m* not, however. is alto gether up to you and your neigh bors. Say?

It was purely n war measure, and so In an epochal speech, delivered In November, 1021. Lenlne publicly nnnounced the fail ure of past policies, and explained the need for an economic departure. I "We met with a bad defeat, and have undertaken a strategic retreat." he; {admitted. "Before they havr j thrashed us definitely, let us retreat and construct everything over again, (but more solidly.* He proposed at I least a partial re-establishipont of 'capitalistic principles: a reversion to ; free trade; tin* Imposition of taxes Ion land; abolishment of free trans* porta tton, and the acceptance of out side aid for the million* of itirvins fttiMlani.

I When thin now economic policy' had pained momentum and It ap peared that Itussla was Milling back I to a bourgeolse regime. !*?nlne wa?| the first to proclaim that the retreat had ended, that therp waa to be no more surrender of real communistic I principles; and above all things, that the proletarian dictatorship of Rus sia would not be surrendered.

In addressing ] puhlie audiences, Lenine drove home his paints xviili a curt force surprls- ' 'ingiy clear in it man ?of his thick-' flipped. rather difficult delivery. In i his speeches and in his actions, he : was a merciless critic of his enemies.] j of his frit nils and of himself. He once told the communist congress that if the party did not Imitate ! capitalistic methods, and learn to he I better bargainers .than the capital-! 1 ists. that they probably would be' hanged, and surely would deserve it. lie .seemed absolutely lacking in | n'lf-intercst. His personal life was exceedingly simple. When in .Moscow \ he occupied two small furnished! r<. wns at the Kremlin, within a 1 stone's throw of a magnificent empty palace, which once housed the Czars. ?? When in the country, at a little place called Tara'sovka. some 20 mil< s from Moscmw,- he spent most of Ills time fishing, shooting or play ing with his pet kittens. J.enine was characterized by ob servers as the greatest intellectual fevee in the Russian Revolution, lie! spoke German-, French and English, and read works on economic prob lems in all thefte languages as quickly us they could lie received in Moscow. Having a world vision, and desiring a world-revolution, he tried ' to keep in touch with the thought and affairs of all countries. Lenine's supporters in the com munist party treated him with some- > thing of a religious reverence, al-i though they did consider him human! enough to call him by the nickname,! "Baldy." His picture has replaced! the Ikon in thousands of Russian I homes. I.eiiine was married, but had no children. His wife. M. K. Oulianova. 1 commonly, known as "Krupskaya," a plain little woman with ( li in iron! grey hair, stood shoulder to -shoulder j with him through the most impor-| tant period in his career, participat-j ing in the directions of the political] education commission, and other; communistic organizations. He also had a sister who shared in his poli tical fortune and has been business! manager of one of tho communist* newspapers in Moscow. In 1917, when Lepine insisted up on Russia making ? separate peace J with Germany, he expected that the world revolution would come ?pe? d ily As time went on. and attempts at communistic uprisings in Ger many, Hungary and elsewhere proved abortive, Lenine gradually) came to the conclusion that the world revolution was away. He never, however, lost the idea that it j would come, and that, soonor or lat-. er. a communistic Russia would live in an Utopian brotherhood of com-] NORFOLK COTTON (Reported by " Wlrft?orn*> ft Co.)
