3 Key. J. H. Earnhardt Preaches In the Morning On . .. Discipleshlp. CANTATA IN THE EVENING West Market Street Methodist! yes terday enjoyed two eervlcee of extra ordinary lntereet and appeal. In the morning the pastor. Rev. i. H. Barn hardt, preached to a very large congre gation on "Discipleshlp," and In the evening the choir, which was never better organtied than new, charmed an almoet equally large congregation with aeacred cantata, "The Christ Child." "For whosoever will sava bis life shall lose It; but whosoever will loie his life for My sake, the aama shall save It," Luke 9:24, the Master's words concerning the wastefulness and con sequent loss of a self -centered Ufa, and tne permanenoy ana immortality of Ufa which centers Itself In God were used by Rev. Mr. Barnhardt as the text of his sermon, who declared that just as self-preservation is the first law of nature, self-renunoiailoa Is the first law of grace. The true type of Christian In' every age, dealared the minister, la the martyr typenothing short of that can be satisfactory to the Individual or acceptable to tha Lord, although, said he, not every one Is called to make his supreme surrender of self In outward actuality, for ordinarily Ood Is not. seeking people to die for him hut to live for him. Yet, he added, no one ever really followed the Christ of (Jod whose other self was not neio in potential sacrifice. ' Vary little advantage, continued Rev. Mr. Barnhardt, has ever come to the church by the professed willingness of nominal Christians to do soma high and mighty thing In tha future If oo- caslon should arise but whose attitude signifies that they ara vary much alive to the flesh. Much Importance, said he, la at tached to the correct view .to start with of what Is involved in tha Idea of die. clpleihlp. If a man's conversion be spurious or shallow, his whole Ufa will bs suprious and shallow; and If ha comes into the ehuroh with low Ideals of duty and obligations and eervloe, his whole attar experience takea Its cue from that angle of vision and tha chances are he will remain dwarf to the end of his days. Mora Christians ara spoiled In -the making than any where else, added the minister. The person who has attended to his soul Ufa hers has started, a career of real existence wnicn siym cneer mm as the eternities pass. Ha may and does lose for a time the Ufa of his animal nature, but he builds Into his .- cnaraeter enaunna- elements wnicn have their satisfaction beyond the grave, and thus makes sure of heaven by making heaven a necessity to him self. - - The ChrlBtmas cantata according to many who heard It, was tha best musl cal program rendered In many months. There were beautiful and wall ordered n urn hern, a splendid variety of solos, ciuartettes, and choruses, and the Voices were well balanoed.v The solo parts were sunfr by Misses Patterson and . I'reyer, Mrs. Ware, and Messrs. Hat- llcid and Smith. ...

VOICE OF JESUS CALL NOW AS IN OTHER DAYS Iter. V. P, Coble, of High Point, Preach ' es At Hnffalo Presbyterlaa. 'r - "W nt Saya the Voice f ftcv. a, V. Coble, of High Point . ureached a strong and Impressive eer nion at the Buffalo Presbyterian church yesterday morning from two words of Matthew 4:10: "Follow Me.' In the opening words of his sermon Mr, Coble said that the call of Jesu to the ftshermaJh had In It an appeal hoth winsome and imperial, a call which could be accounted for only on the grounds of Jesus' wonderful per sonality. It was the meek face of Christ and His sweet voice that charm ed the men away from their occupa tion, winning them instantly Into dis cipleshlp to Him. But for Jesus' com mand to follow Him the names of the disciples would never have been known. By hearing and heading His voice their lives) were lifts from'ob acurity. and their faith and devotion to Him hava toeoomo the priceless heritage of every land. , This same voice of Jasui Is speak ing to every soul of man today. What It Is speaking and to what tha voice calls may be described by many voices. First of all. It Is the voice of divine compassion, the soul of Christ going out in laving interest and sympathy for earth's multitudes, weary and worn and scattered Ilka sheep without a shepherd. It was the voice also of perfect purity calling men to follow In the footsteps of the only perfect man, the man who experienced temptation and was con fronted by sin but who kept his purity unsullied, absolutely untarnished - by sin, It was the voice of Inoarnate truth, of God's revelations and of man's eter nal destiny. It was tha voice of grace and truth In Christ calling away from the bondage of sin and death. It was the voice of divine goodness and ministry seeking to expend itself in Unselfish service, a eiall to conflict with the evil of the world for the righteousness and holiness of Ood Mr. Coble showed that discipleshlp with Jesus leads through many a tear and trial and trouble, but to the faith ful It leads straight home at last to . glory and to God. A beautiful and Impressive Service occurred Just before the sermon when Rev. and Mrs. B. Frank Lee presented their child, Elsie Lois, for baptism. Dillr Nt n sunw sod fthirtps Office, til AIM SullalM is; Lewd Win) By W. T. BOST. Raleigh, Deo. 18. Tied to a body of death and unable to do an earthly thing to aid the tax tangle, the general assembly today thinks that tomorrow night It will move up the hands of the clock to Tuesday morning, have a bob tall prayer as of Tuesday, vote, turn back tha hands and adjourn. The body of death from whloh there is no deliverance la a tax limit of 16 cents which is as unbending aa a board ing house biscuit and a bonding prop ensity which amounts to the sky. The 15-cent limitation laid at tha special session of 1820, the Inoome tax and the several companion pieces of legislation were the answer of the dominant Dem ocracy to the opposing politicians who warned the folks that this revaluation business was but the prelude to an orgy of extravagance and downright' dishonesty never known In the world before. There Is now left the state no way to pay interest on bonds and debts except the Morrisonlan hlgh-flnanclng method of passing the buck and more bonds. But the governor hadn't a thing In the world to do with tha special ses sion's fixation' of tax-rates. Perhaps he could have had aomethlng to do with It had he not been oandldatlng and talking about "high riding sets In Raleigh." But he would evidently set no limit at either end. He would Issue all the bonds that he could get through and then issue more bonds. There would be no ad valorem tax and there Is now none. There Is no end to bond Ing power. So far as ll known the state and counties could- Issue 1400, 000,000 In bonds It fools would buy the paper. The cities tie themselves down to a proportion of their taxable valuea But the state cuts off Its taxing power and the debt-creating power goes on Its upward way. The circumstance Is mentioned as showing the futility of trying to gat the general assembly to stay put or to undertake' to remedy any troubles of state by fundamental treatment, taxation. The Demooracy will have to meet the Issue because the Republicans have euchred ths dominant party Into a hole. The revaluation act would have furnished the basis for deliverance. The best solution ever offered was the tax amendment of 1914. That was killed by E. L. Travis of Washington and A. E. Holton of Winston-Salem. Mr. Holton allowed himself to talk too much he often was heard to say these amendments would furnish the Demoo racy the weapon wherewith It would commit suicide. Mr. Travis was Just plain dead fegainst ths bill and stlrrsd up the state against It. He pulled J. W. Bailey Into controversy over this amendment'and having Demos tor audi ence he walloped Bailey good. Bailey had to talk honesty that time. Tied To Body of Death. The line start with all Republicans and Democrats agreeing on revaluation seemed to hava been millennial In Its auspices! but the Republicans having learned the way of Morrison. Travis and others In 1914 decided to beat the Democracy to renunciation. In state convention at Greensboro March. 1820 the Republicans presented a mass at tack on revaluation. That very day tne jj-cent limitation was born and that very hour tha $300 exemption. For shutting up the claimant Demos no glnsrer cake quite so baccharlne ever was baked. President Stone of the Far mers' Union says It was a "sop," but ginger oakes often have 'lasses mlxtry, it may go at that. Anyway, the weapons of warfare. And the 15-oent limitation is the Democracy's confes sion of a healthy fear tor the weak minority in the atata. The state Is therefore tied to the body of; this death and It won't move to free Itself. The constitutional con vention is the only thing suggested at this session and it cannot pass now. There is no provision for the payment or tne mounting Indebtedness. Even the valuations under the act, of simple honesty, so often called "Infamous," which is nothing more nor less than truthful Inventory of the state's property Insofar as humiin beings can tell and record truth, have been rat nearly a billion, all told. That makes the 15-cent limit all the more Impotent and the assembly falls to touch the issue. Meanwhile, not a bond issue has been seriously challenged, not a sug gestion of providing any way to retire these bonds "has been offered, the ad ministration has planted Ifself In the way of submitting any machinery to correct these Imperfections and the sum total of the session has been a series of criminations against certain departmsnts because they have had to spend more even as the remainder of the state has done. . Had the constitutional convention been Set half the liemibllcans would have Joined In the passage. Grant, of Davie, would have led the fight and any time the Democracy will go with' him ha will remove all tail, limitation and DANVILLE HAS TWO DAYS IN WHICH TO IflAKB VP ITS HIND (Sneciil to Uilli Num.!

The senate a tew days ago rerusea to pass the publlolty bill which affected Colonel Watts and Indirectly nis cre ator. Governor Morrlaon. But the bill beetowlng power to remove omciaia annotated by Governor Morrlaon has not been passed In either houae and will not be, unless tha session is axtenaea and bill ahould get away from the committee en propositions and grlv ancea. There it has latn since. Baby Glover bounced up and tried his best to please his excellenay. There are two very Interesting yarns about that bill. One says that the governor asked one of his home bodies to let the thing sleep In committee, that he had nearly all the sower that he had originally asked for In his very sweeping bill which Baby Qlovar, by the way. bounc ed up and Introduced right often the reel. It died Inglorlously aa everybody remembers, was killed so dead that even the Baby would not admit his duty to shroud It and put It away. Tree other story about tne new diii Is that the governor blamed the Hon Pete Murphy, of Rowan, for suffocating the bill. Both stories come dlreot from the exeoutive office, they are brought by devoted friends of the chief. They Indicate two states of mind. They signify talking two ways. Neither of which dualities In the least surprises. anybody hsre. But the beunotng bill was lying up there In a capital pigeon hole today and it will be there at the pleasure of Representative Murphy. Co-operative Marketing 'Campaign, Chairman J. T. Joyner, of the Tobaoeo and Cotton Growers' Co-operative Mar keting association for Virginia and the two Carolines, la putting this week and next every possible speaker Into the campaign with the hope of wind ing up December with a algn-up show ing as good as any stats now seeking better marketing conditiona. Aaron Saplro, of California, will be here for the last week In Deoember. Judge R. W. Bingham, of Kentucky has written his desire to assist, but his dates have not been set. Much good is being done by prominent merchants and bankers. One of these, B. F. Gardner, of Spring Hope, haa written a picturesque opinion of the farmer In this letter: Ths writer recently attended a meet' Ing of the association at which a local warehouseman took exception to the speaker's general outline of the plan However, he stated that he was in fa vor ot It provided It was a success. Now with somewhat of the spirit that prompted the fellow to say during the recent war, To hell with the kaiser d a man that In t tor his country, right or wrong,' Is my sentiment for the farmers co-operative marketing. "I waa reared on a farm and raised to hard work with my own hands. Con trary to what I have heard some say, ft-was a joy and a delight, because I could see the results from my labor overnight. What Is more beautiful than a pretty field ot corn In full bloom with ears standing off and bending down aa If to kiss Mother Earth from whloh it sprdngT I don't know any thing alss unless It Is a field of well developed tobaoeo In Its golden colors before going Into the barn. To me there Is no other vocation In life that holds co many charms aa the tiller of the soli. Then why am I not farming and why are so many others quitting the farmt "My reason and answer to tne ques tion is the present system of marketing farm products. I have never seen a year in my life when I went to market with my first bale of ootton or load of tobacco that the devil did not get Into me aa big as a mule and stay all through the marketing season. The Idea of being the first to have the fruits of my labor, and with the meek ness of Abraham of old when he of fered up his son .Isaao as a sacrifice, I go to market and ask somebody what they will give me for my products. I don't blame any one man or set of men. When I go to market with a bale of cotton and wait three hours on my wagon In the street for the buyers, I'm not mad with the merchant who has probably 1.000 bales on hand that he paid 10 cents for, and the price has gone down to It, I am simply mad with myself. When my tobaoeo falls to bring a good price I am not mad with the warehouseman and buyers when there is probably talk of a railroad strike or a coal shorl-ige, and the price has gone down, I am simply mad With myself. "I am going to exert my every effort to have every man sign the contract In this section, and those who won't sign I want to make application for admission to the Insane asylum at Ra leigh or have them attend the school for feeble-minded." "One Man and God Need Not Be Afraid of All Hell," Says Dr. C. F. Myers. TIME FOR VERDICT NOW "One man and Ood need not be afraid of all hill," waa the ataoeate summing up ot an appeal by Dr. Myers before the congregation at the First Presbyterian ehuroh last night; an ap peal for a decision; a decision between Ood and Baal. The subjeot ef the evening sermon waa "Halting," and tha text was from Kings 11:11: "How long halt ye be tween two opinions? It the Lord he Ood, follow Him; but If Baal, then follow Him." It waa the etery of the teat between Elijah and the 160 false prophets of Baal and the Grove. While the II. with courage and enthusiasm, even though Inspired by beliefs that were sheer frauds, had called la vain from early morning until late evening upon their goda to show thslr power unto the children of Israel, there had been ne response. And then the Ood ot Israel vindicated .Ills oronhet when Elltsh lifted up his voice and prayed: "Lord Ood of Ahrahlhn, Isaao and Israel, 1st it be known this day that thou art Ood la Israel, and that I ara thy ser vant, and that I hava done all these things at Thy word." And as In the days of Elijah, as It la today, declared the speaker. When the followers ot Baal are In extremity they oall In vain for help from their goda: but tne greater the extremity, the rloher le God's assistance to those who call In Hla name. But the day la past ef such tests aa that staged on Mount Carmel. The evldenoe la all In; haa bean In for over 1900 year: and last night Dr. Mysrs called for a verdict from those who heard him. Be pleaded with his eon' gregatlon to halt no longer between two opinions, but to choose between Ood and Baal. YOUHO JAPS ARB OPPOSED v TO WASHINGTON DECISIONS Toklo, Deo. 18. By Assoelated Press.)

Where they uisDanae.a. leave the people to hold the legisla tors to strict accountability. - Always he will have provided In legislation some way, of raising revenues to mset expenses. As the session wears Itself and everybody else to a frazzle the good sense ot Grant's suggestion slow ly soaks in. But It is an appalling tact that not the smallest check is held on the debt end of state business and even less attention Is given to the pay ing end. The state borrows Ilka a lunatic and pays (n forma pauperis. It could pay every cent of its running expenses svery year if It but adopted a fiscal policy Intead of a political: if It reduced bangerson and paid neces sary workers better. But right there Is ths germ ot trouble. The state never has been willing to pay high sal aries tor good men: it pretera to pay pauper salaries to many poor men, The whole business has become lumbering and cumbersome. The structure looks shaky. The folks who work about it are afraid to tamper with It. And nothing will be done to It this time. Stood l Partly. Rut the session has stood up In part. It could have gone back on Its con structive record of the regular session of 1111, but It will not renounce. It has been In a good humor, but a timid mood, and It will do nothing to taxa tlon, It will go homer hope for better prices, trust to the short memories of the people and come back again Schools and roads which have furnished the bulk of controversy, the routes of the roads and the administration nf the schools, happen to be the best talk ing points of them all. The folks get to the schools over the roads to "the II, 000 North Carolina teachers and the combination is a puzzle to the politi cian. Meanwhile, the stafe superin tendent has. given his benediction to anybody who desires to Investigate him, particularly sines his "exposure" by President Stone of the Fanners' union. The general assembly could have dons much to hurt ths schools but It did nothing. Similarly, there Is little help offered, but the commission which wlff study taxes nnd laws as they effect the schools will help to do a great deal.

FESTIVITIES BEGIN SOON The day that come but onoe a, rear Is coming fast to Greensboro. Tha fact la wrlttsn in the crowns that have swarmed up and down the streets and In and out ef the atorea In Increasing numbers these past weeks; In the army of shoppers that 111 sweep the olty In the remaining six daysi In ths loads of Christmas trees, ot holly, and ot mistletoe that have appeared on the streets; In the tnoomlng eollegs students, home tor the holidays) In the inoreased church activity, the special servlcee In prep aratlon, the planning for the day of the year; In the face ot children ges tae; enraptured at windows pilled high with toys. Christmas Is at hand la Greens boro. It's the one thought that over tops and orowds out everything else. It's In the air. It's everywhere. For all of Greensboro the alx days remaining this week will be tre mendous days. Especially for the shoppers. They started late this year. They put eft mora than la usual, fob slbly tha pleasant weather of the autumn and early winter obscured the approach of Christmas; possibly the faot of one drive after another for funds for charitable enterprises les sened the power ot buying; possibly a year of conservatism In money has had Us effeot. Feasibly all theee fac tors entered Into the situation, but the faot remains that tha buyers started lata. Within tha paat week they have made up much lost ground, and there is every Indication that the eomlng week will see whirlwind of buying. There Is muoh ground to be re covered, but on every kind ot buy ing the past few days hava ahown a speeding-up and the season's business may yet sweep up to high marks. There's another kind ot Buying tor whloh, If all the rumors up and down the streets are to be believed, the market Is active. Thaae rumors point to a general stocking up for Christ mas In every kind of liquor that can can be obtained, with a brisk demand for both the ao-oalled low grades and the so-called high grades and with a brisk market ready to meet tha de mand. Opinions vary en prloes and nearly any figure will find some back ers. For the better gradea of bottled goods tha figures are rumored to vary around $100 and $110 a ease, and for the homemade corn from $10 to $11 or $14 a gallon, evlth possibly $20 for de luxe editlona of brandy. Through tha helter-skelter of shop ping and of preparation there shines the truer significance of the day, the home-oomlng of the year, tha reunit ing of families, the festivities of young and old, tha golden daya of childish joy. All this is perhaps a little ob scured now, but with the rapid ap proach of Christmas It ablnss more and more clearly. It will come and It will bring joy. and back of all rises the deepest and truest meaning ot tha day of days. Christmas is nothing If It Is not the birthday of the King, the begin ning of hope, the reality of promise. Greensboro knows that, but Greens boro will realise It more and more clearly. Unless "unto us a child Is born" there Is no Christmas, and that le unthinkable. SECRETARY DAVIS WANTS THK CUNAWll I.I MB PVNISHKD Washington, Deo. II.
