Dr. Brough ton remarked that ho thanked Ood that tho time had come when all kinds of musical Instruments were being used in church services In stead of being devoted entirely to the world, and .said further that he had never heard the violin played better than on this occasion. Dr. Broughton then spoke earnest ly to the Sunday school on the sub ject of "Seeking First the Kingdom of Ood." He stated first that 0d had a plan for every object of His creation; that He has made nothing 'that does not claim His direct car. And he stated further that every one who ' follows the plan of Ood will succeed In spite of all efforts to the contrary on the part of the world and th devil. He then referred to the fact Tnt the first step In God's plan for everyJ Individual Is for him to recognizo Jesus Christ as the Saviour of thi world. and that when any IndlJ Vldual takes this step Ood enters Into a solemn contract with him which He never breaks. Dr. Broughton pleaded with tho children and young people to accept Christ, and they came forward in lam numbers, signifying their de sire to surrender their lives to Chrlxt and to follow God's plan In their lives.

An Operator W1k Fears a "Varmint' and a Nearby Graveyard. A Charlotte business man was tell Ing yesterday of a very nervous tel egraph operator of whom he heard on a recent trip In South Carolina. The operator has charge of a tele graph station on the block system 0 the southern. He Is quite a young fellow and Is on duty at night. He has been stuffed with stories of the depredations of a varmlt, a wild an! mal that skulks through the woods and field of the community and at tacks everything 'It sees. His thoughts dwelt upon this varmlt and he be. came nervous. But the end was not yet, stories reanhed him about the pranks of ghosts In a graveyard not far distant. This produced a new sensation. This was the straw that broke tho camel's bacK. A stock of arms and ammunition was purchased and now two negro men sleep In the ktation with arms by their side and the operator keeps his eyea wide open and is nervously watchful as the slow hours of the night pasa.

The Baptist churches of Greensboro will be strengthened on account of thesj meetings of the Convention, and the entire community, Christian and non- Chrlstlan, will have a more exalted conception of Christianity and the Importance of the mission of the Church In tho world. 11. v Why not get the worth of your ihonevT Ask. for Blue Kiooon vnnilia. .
