RESUME OF WORK IN MEETING HELD HERE (By JJJDGE ROBT. L. GASH ) As The News went to press last weejc, .. Asheville Presbytery was then , ir.' session, and as only a very brief account was given, the following re sume is now published. The Presbytery me tn the Brevard church at 11 o'clock Tuesday morn ing, and the opening sermon was preached by Rev. J. R. Sevier of Hen dersonville. The many in this sec tion who have heard Dr. Sevier do riot need to be told what a treat it was to hear him. After the opening sermon, Rev. W. , F. Creson was elected Moderator, Dr. W. A. M.urray of Black Mountain, Stated Clerk, and Rev. J. A. Flanna gan of Franklin, temporary clerk. Luncheon was served by the ladies of the church in The Hut both Tues day and Wednesday. Tuesday after noon was largely taken up with rou tine business and committee work. Tuesday night, which is the regu lar Home Mission meeting, was well attended and unusually interesting. Dr. R. F. Campbell, chairman of the Home Mission committee, presided; the principal address of the evening was by Rev. H. B. Dendv of Weavev ville, treasurer of the Presbytery and superintendent of the Home Mission. Dr. J. H. Gruver, superintendent of the Mountain Orphanage, gave one of his ever attractive and all compre hensive talks describing and telling all about the work of that institution which is now caring for sixty-six or phans. Dr. R. C. Anderson gave a very interesting talk on the Montreat Normal School at Montreat. Rev. S. R. Crocket told of the work of Max well School near Franklin in his own inimitable way. Dr. Charles Chapin gave a very touching account of his work as chaplain at Oteen. Other in teresting talks were by Dr. R. P. Hendersonville shrdl ? L.shrd co aoa Smith of Asheville, Dr. L. T. Wilde of Hendersonville and many others. ' All of the talks had an active ring and there was little, if any, appear ance of stilted phraseology and form ality which is too often too much in evidence in such meetings. Wednes day morning was the regular time for consideration of Foreign Missions and Dr. Wilde, charpian of the For- : cgn Mssions committee, in making his report, announced that Dr. Egbert W. Smith, executive secretary of Foreign 1 Missions, would preach at 11 o'clock. Dr. Smith is one of the most bril liant preachers and eloquent talkers in the country and his sermon Wed nesday morning was in unusually fine form. The entire congregation was at eager attention from start to finish. Dr. Smith, within the past two years, traveled around the world and visited in person all of the Mission 1 Fields of the Western Presbyterian Smith gave a talk or a travelogue de ehurches. Wednesday evening Dr. scribing many of his experiences in < visiting the foreign fields and gave : many interesting accounts of his vis its in Korea, China. Brazil and the Congo, and promised, on some future occasion to describe his visits to the other Mission Fields. On Wednesday night the other churches in Brevard adjourned their prayer meetings and united with the Presbyterians in hearing Dr. Smith. 1 The house was crowded to the doors. : Asheville Presbytery' is one of the Presbyterys entitled to send four commissioners to the general assem bly which is the highest court of the 1 Presbyterian church and in their se lection, Presbytery paid a very high cmopliment to the Brevard-Davidson River church and to .ludgeGash by. electing him as one of the four com missioners. A point of decided interest to church workers was included in the treasur er's report by Mr. Dendv. In spite of the general depression' and hard times and the bank failures having tied up much of the funds of the Presbytery, the Presbytery was able to carry on all of its regular activities, keep its regular workers, meet its regular ex penses and pay all salaries in full to March 31, the 'end of the church year, and still have a small balance of available cash on hand. In view of the general conditions during the past year this is truly a remarkable rec ord. 4 I Pisgah Forest News i The converts of the recent revival at the Baptist church will be baptized Sunday morning at 10 o'clock.
