HIS FOND FAREWELL.
A minister in a certain town
took permanent leave of his
congregation in the following
manner:
“Brothers and sisters, I come
to say goodbye. I don’t think
God loves this church, because
none of you ever die. I don’t
think you love each other, be
cause I never marry any of
you. I don’t think you love me,
because you have not paid my
salary. Your donations are
moldy fruit, and ‘by their fruits
ye shall know them.’
“Brothers, I am going to a
better place. I have been called
to be chaplain in a prison.
‘Where I go ye cannot come, but
t go to prepare a place for you.’
Good-bye.’’—-Tit-Bits.
BOYS’ WEEK IN THE CAL
VARY PRESBYTERIAN
CHURCH, WILSON.
‘The last week in February;
was designated as “Boys’ Week”'
in the Calvary Presbyterian
church of Wilson. This celebra
tion* comes about the time that
the Boy Scouts are having their
anniversary, and the papers car-*
ry the activities of the boys of
the opposite rate. The Pioneer
group thought this was an op
portune time to try to create a
deeper interest in their work,
and at the same time to try td
arouse the boys to a greater ac
tivity in church and community
life.
In addition to the regular
character talks to the boys at
the prescribed meetings, other
features were added. On Satur
day a group of twenty-five boys
took a ten-mile hike.
On Sunday a large group of
the boys attended the morning
service specially arranged for
them. The pastor preached
from the theme, “The Lost
Boy.”
This celebration was brought
to a close by a Father-Son Ban
quet. Nearly seventy-five men
and boys attended. It was an
interesting sight to see the menj
join in with the boys in theii*
“jamboree.” The program was
as follows:
The Aim of the Pioneers by
Herbert Odell Reid.
Recitation, “The Father Sets
the Pace,” by Carter Foster.
Short address by Mr. Wm,
Hines, teacher of the Intermedi
ate class of boys.
Solo by Hartford Eugene
Best. i
Short address by Rev. Wm.
D. Burgess, of Rocky Mount.
Short address by Prof. S. H.
Vick, Superintendent of the
Sunday school.
Music for the occasion was
furnished by the club members.
The evening was an enjoyable
one.
The Ladies’ Missionary Soci
ety recently presented “Rev,
Dayton Up To Date” in the High
School auditorium at Goldsboro.
The play was a success in every
detail.
“THE SCRIBE.”

’visiting delegates and friends.
There were two tables just la
den with the choicest and best
delicacies of the season. We feel
quite sure that those of us who

HUNTERSVILLE CHURCH
NOTES
By Mrs. M. J. Phifer
On last Sunday morning after
Sunday school a soul-stirring
prayer meeting was conducted
before the regular services be
gan, after which our pastor,
Rev. R. L. Moore, entered the
pulpit and preached an interest
ing and forceful sermon from
the text, James 1:17: “Every
good gift and every perfect gift
is from above and cometh down
fromthe Father of light.”
He pointed out among some
of the precious gifts the sun
shine, the winds, the waters,
health and the ability that God
gives to men, and the most per
fect gift that he ever gave to
the world was Christ Jesus.
Every one’s heart was filled
with joy as we heard this ser
mon. The Lord’s Supper was
administered to a very large au
dience.
Sunday morning, February
the 14th, the Sunday school ob
served Lincoln Day. The pro
gram was carried out nicely by
the Superintendent and pupils.
After the program the teachers
received the envelopes from the
children bearing their gifts for
the Board. These envelopes and
contributions that others gave
amounted to $5.00 .
Immediately after the Sunday
school hour the Woman’s Mis
sionary Society held a very in
teresting Missionary program.
The excellent music rendered
by the choir added much to the
occasion. The collection was
$7. •
We are glad to note that Mrs.
R. L. Moore and Deacon Aber
nethy, who have been sick for
the past week, are able to be
out again. Mrs. Minnie Potts is
also sick, but is improving.
Mr. Tom Pharr, of Hunters
ville, and Miss Lily Caldwell
were quietly married at the
home of the bride near Hunters
ville, Saturday evening, March
8, at 8 P. M.
DOING HIS BEST.
“I am not satisfied with your
references, my man,” said the
apartment house superinten
tendent.
“Neither am I,” replied the
applicant for an elevator boy’s
job. “But they are the best I
could get.”
