In the matter of streets and sidewalks Bessemer leads Gas tonia and then hers are none too good. Gastonia otton. (Corrected every Taesday and Fri day by t). M. Jones & Co'., cotton bro kers, 238 Wr.

' Preparations are being: made by the Southern Cotton Oil Company to build and equip at an early date a new gin designed exclusively for tne ginning of long staple cotton, the growing of which haa developed Into considerable proportions In Gaston county. It will be located in West Gastonia on the sooth side of Frank lin avenue and Just opposite the company's Loray gin house. Mana ger J. Flay Bess is now making an investigation. to ascertain as near as possible about bow much long staple will be raised In this section thia year before placing bis order for the equipment. As forecasted in an ar ticle on this subject In Ibe Gazette recently it seems probable that Gas ton county will raise this year any where, from 3,000 to 5,000 bales. Up to the present time the long staple cotton raised here has been ginned at the regular plants which are equip ped only for the ginning of short staple cotton. This has proved un satisfactory and hence the move on the part of the Southern Oil Com pany to equip a gin for this special purpose. Manager Bess expects to have the gin built, equipped and all ready for business before the new crop of cotton comes in. Alleged Murderer Taken. Sheriff J. D. B.

D., Dean of Moody Bible Institute, Chicago TEXT. And you. that were sometime alienated and enemlee In your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled. In the body cf His flesh through death, to prevent you holy and unblameable and unprovable In His xlght: If ye continue In th faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard. Colosslans t: 21-23. The apostle Paul is here speaking of Jesus Christ as the one in whom all the fullness of the Godhead dwells and by whom it pleased the father to re c o n c 1 1 e all things unto him self. By "all things." however, he does not mean all things univer sally or absolute ly, for that would Include not only the souls of the condemned, but the demons in hell and even Patau himself. But he means nil the things which It has pleased the father from the beginning thus to reconcile.. The definite article in the Greek nigKest this as the thought, which Is made clear by the other teachings of the Bible on the same f uhj-( t. Among thote things which it pleased the father to reconcile to him self are the believers on Jesus Christ, and ft is of their reconciliation espe cially that Paul here speaks. I. First he shows our need of reconciliation, by telling us that we were "sometime alienated and enemies in our mind by wicked works." "Sometime" covers the whole period of our lives from physical birth to our new birth by the holy spirit. All that time the natural man is alienated from God. And not only alienated, but hostile to God, an enemy, as the text says. What Are Wicked Worksf This enmity need not show itself necessarily in giving way to the lower and baser appetites of the body. There are cultivated men and women who are able to control these appe tites, but who are at the fame time enemies to God in their mind 1. e., In their modes of thought and feeling, which are contrary to his revealed will. And this enmity must in the very nature of the case, show itself In "wicked works." II. Second, he shows the source of our reconciliation, which is God him self. "Yet now hath he reconciled us." The very one from whom we were alienated and against whom we were enemies is the one who reconciles us. "He who might the vantage beat have took Found out the remedy." This is grace, especially when we understand that It does dot mean pri marily that we became reconciled to God, but that God became reconciled to us. This he did by taking that sin out of the way which was the barrier to his reconciliation. III. This leads Paul to speak in the third place of the means of our reconciliation which was the work of Christ for us on the cross as our sub stitute Saviour, "In the body of his flesh through death." Why say "the body of his flesh?" Why not say "his body" without adding "flesh?" Be cause there was a heretical sect in that day which denied the materiality of Christ's body. They believed in a spiritual, but not a material, mediator ship. But Christ had a real body and real flesh and real blood which he offered in propitiation for our sin, he passed through real suffering and died a real death. Such is the teaching of this verse. IV. " And this brings us to the fourth point, which is the result of our reconciliation, presented "holy and without blemish and uncharged in God's sight." This is true Immediate ly of every believer the moment he accepts Christ by faith as his Saviour. Oh, If everybody in this sin-cursed and sln-wear'ed world only knew and be lieved that! If they would only pause In the rush of things and listen to It for a single moment! The Battle of Concord Bridge. At tbe battle of Concord bridge, at the beginning of the revolution, when John Buttrlck gave the command to fire it was to British subjects he gave it, Dut it was obeyed by American citizens. In other words. In that In stant theif condition became changed, though the experience of that change was a thing of growth. So the instant a man takes Christ as his Saviour, he stands before God free from the guilt of sin, without blemish and without charge. And this is grace! The final point in the lesson is the proof of our reconciliation, which Is that we "continue in the faith, rooted and grounded and not moved away from the hope of the gospel." Paul is speaking not to the false teacher, who went out of the church, but to the true believer who stayed In. Those who are true to the "faith delivered once for all to the saints' have the witness In themselves that they are reconciled to God renny column ads' are CASH. N.
