Raleigh, April 20.—'The morn ing session of the Southern Christian Convention heard anj .address by Mr. John King of, Suffolk, Va., on "Tithing.' v i During his discourse he brought out the fact that tithing in time and talent, as well as money, was nefeded in the advancement of the Kingdom. Three items from the Wo man's Board was carred over to' this morning's session of the 1 Convention. The first of these I was the report of the president of the board, Mrs. W. A. Harper, to the convention regarding the work of the women during the last term. By a comparison of the results of the woman's work for the last several years, and the rapidity of their increasing goal?, Mrs. Harper showed the remarkable progress of this work and its vital importance in the life of the Church. Mrs. C. H. Rowland then ren dered a discourse on "Woman's Interest in the Kingdom," -in which she very vividly brought out the large, place the women of the Church occupied with reference to home and foreign missions. Service and sacrifice was her theme, both of which she said was characteristic of women and appealed to their nature. Concluding she said the womatfs duty was not to supplant the work of men but to supplement it. The concluding speaker of the morning was Miss Bessie I. Holt of Burlington, N. C., who gave a heart-to-heart talk on the young people's work. She de clared that the young people were the hope of the future with reference to the continued pro gress of the church, and it was the duty of the church, the pa rents, and the ministers to give their time atifl attention to get ting the young people to realize they belonged to God* to inter est them in the Missionary so cieties, the Sunday school, in the study of the Bible, to keep their bodies pure —temples for the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, and last but not least, the in vestment / of their lives for Christ. Afternoon 8e«*lon. The afternoon session heard the report of the President of the ®oard of Trustees of the Christian Orphanage, Mr. W. K. Holt of Burlington, N. C.> in which the convention takes a deep and abiding interest prov viding for its support through offerings by the Sunday school, the churches, and individuals. The report of President Holt showed the Orphanage to be free of all debt, with sixty children, and more than $13,000.00 in the bank, and with assets in addi tion to this of $75,000.00 to $100,000.00. The plans are now nfHturing to erect a new build ing to accommodate sixty more children at the Orphanage and to this plan the convtupkm gave its hearty endorsemei^ Superintendent Charles D. Johnston of the Orphanage, de livered an address entitled "Min istering to Others," with appli cations'to the orphanage, great ly accentuated as it is now by 'the large number of orphan chil dren due to the deaths ot parents caused by influenza during the past two years. The speeial committee on superannuates appointed yes terday made the following recommendations: 1. That'the convention ap point or elect a permanent board on super annuation, one member from each conference. 3. That the various confer ences turn their super-annua ted funds into a common fuud along with a similar fund to be raised by the Men and Millions Foward Movement to be known as the Convention Superannuated Fund. 3. That at the age of seventy, or earlier in case of disability, to be decided in each case by the ALEOPARD CANNOT CHANGE ITS SPOTS Mr. l)o4sos, the "U»er Toae" Mae, Tell* the Treachery uf Calomel loses you a (lay!

That the amounts herein named be increased from time to time as funds are available and the needs demand. It has definitely been decided to establish Convention head quarters, and a special commit tee has-been appointed to work out the details and report tomor row. The two churches bidding for these headquarters offices are Burlington, N. C., and Kal eigh, N. C., though there is some possibility that it may go to Suffolk, Va., or to some other point. The convention reconsidered kg action of yesterday increas ing the apportionments of the conferences, and decided to leave said apportionments just as they were two years ago, (since the high cost of living had not stop-' ped). The concluding item of the afternoon session Was the report of the Board on Publication*, which report was considered and adopted, fixing the salary of the editor of The Christian Sun at $2,500 with all necessary office assistance. Hvenlug IMCMIOB, Governor T. W, Hlekett Speak*. The evening session of the Southern Christian Convention was opened by Dr. W. M. Jay, Suffolk, Va., who conducted the devotional exercises. Dr, A. B. Kendall, pastor of the Washing ton, D. C., church, sang, the campaign song of the Men and Millions Forwa/d Movement, oi which song he is the composer, the congregation joining in on the choruses. The feature of the session was the address of Governor T. W. Bickett, Dt. W. A. Harper, President of Elon College, intro duced the Governor. , Governor Bickett said that be had never learned to say "no" to the call of the people of North Carolina for service, and that particularly was this true with reference to the churches. And when the invitation came to speak at the Convention be was glad to render the service. "When the war began," de clared the Governor, "the duties of the office of Governor of North Carolina were multiplied many fold. Certainly ten times as much work is devolved upon the GovernoV in times of war as in times of peace. The Governor is held res|>onsible by the Well ington authorities for keeping his State in line for the prosecu tion of the war. It would have been impossible for me to have discharged the numerous and heavy duties and obligations that devolved upon me if it had not been for the enthusiastic and consecrated support that I received from every nook and comer of the State of the church es of North Carolina. The churches believed that we were fighting a righteous war, and we would hasp given up in de spair in North Carolina and in the nation except for the conse crated efforte of the ministers of North Carolina, and of the ■ -)» gospel of North Carolina." I shall go down to my grave with a heart full of gratitude for those great spiritual dynamos. *l'believe in the Church," de clared Governor Bickett, "and I believe in its missions. I be lieve in education. I believe that ignorance if the mother of poverty, and the handmaid of crime; that knowledge, is tbe gateway to truth, and that truth is the gateway to power " He said that he was educated in a Christian college, and was glad that he had been- under such an influence. "Christianity," he said, "without education will produce bigotry. Education without Christianity will pro duce Germany. If there was ever a time when liberty, truth, justice, and mercy called for christian citizenship that hour is at hand." The Governor went on to say that the war was the sublimest instance of altruism ever enact ed in hnm-xn history, but that all its beautiful spirit of brother hood had been dissipated when the II iiulenburg line was broken, and that now selfishness sits in the saddle of the world and sav agery hisses from the ambush nearby. We have learned that the winning of tbe world war cannot bring us that social order which we must have in order for the full ripening and develop ment of christian manhood. Christian citizenship is what we must have, and this can only be had in the atmosphere of chris tian education. "The only hope," concluded the Governor, "of our escaping hell, not the fanciful hell of the theologiaus, but the actual seething tumultuous hell, is for the social order to be sat urated and innoculated» with the spirit of the Man of Galliee." The convention arose to its feet in grateful acknowledge ment of the Governor's speech. Dr. Prank G. Coffin Mf>eak».
