' Unveiling exercises were held at Kernersville Sunday by Twin City Camp No. 27, Woodmen of the World, .In memory of the late Hugh W. Lind say, Kernersville.

A monument will i Boon be erected to another member at Winston and also one in High Point PRESBYTERIAN LOAN FUND, President of Davidson Has Ktrong Article Discussing This In Religious Papers. Special to The Ooserver. Davidson, Sept XI. The religious papers of latest date carry a strong article by President Smith, discussing "Our Presbyterian Loan Fund," a col lection for which was ordered by the General Assembly to be taken yeeter day. The plan is a new one for the Southern Presbyterian Church but has been In most successful operation for nearly forty years In the Northern Methodist Church, which since Its organisation has disbursed as much as 41.984.000.000 and has given suhstan . tial financial aid to about 17,000 young oeoole seeking an education. Dr. Smith, taking the record of the Methodist Church as a text, argu eloquently and earnestly for a liberal support of the movement on the part of his own Church and in behalf of the deservlns but needy younz men who without such aid are seriously handicapped in their efforts to secure an education. He summarizes many of the advantages to be derived from the loan fund and Its direct and specif Je benefits to the beneficiaries them' selves, to the Church schools and cni leces and to the Church Itself. He hows that It Is a most desirable meth i od of aiding self-respecting, deserving young men and women of special firomlse: every dollar given has a Ions Ife of continual Investment and re investment; the fund rapidly accu mulates; it avoids or minimizes fa voritism and gives no superior ad vantage to the candidate for th ministry; it makes a special appeal to philanthropic business mrn. Again, It opens the door of hope to an evrr Jncreaslng number of young men ana women; it saves our worthiest young men from the wants of time and ef fort Involved In trying to amimulHte money for their education before th education Is acquired. Further it will bind Our promising younir men and women to the Church from a serin of deep gratitude; it will educate and develop the future officer and work ers Jn the various congregations of the country, and it will greatly in crease, the number of those from whose ranks many randir)Htn for th ministry win surely come.
