CALDWELL CHURCH NOTES By Mias Carrie I. Graham On Sunday morning, Rev. R. L. Moore seemed to have been at His best. He brought to us an inspiring message from St. Luke 18:22, “Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all thou hast and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me.” Sunday night Rev. Moore preached another helpful ser mon from Genesis 2:24, “There fore shall a man leave his father and his mother and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.” His theme was, “The Sacredness of Marriage.” He spoke from these three stand points: Legal, Biological, Social and Spiritual. The church was well-filled and the audience lis tened "very attentively to this elevatiflg sermon. We were proud to have with us friends from Cornelius. Among them were Messrs. I. Withers, J. A. Dean, R. Nelson, E. Littles, B. Burton and the Stinsons. We trust these friends and others will coa£sj&ue to worship with us. Our choir and congregation were at Miranda church, Sun day, where they enjoyed the Children’s Day exercise very much. We are expecting to be at Woodland church on the 5th Sunday in this month. Mr. Irwin W. Henderson is spending the summer in Atlantic City, N. J. Miss Corrie 0. Gaston is our delegate to the Sunday school convention which convenes at Westminster church, Concord. Miss Geneva White is the alter nate. Miss Viola M. Graham, accom panied by Miss Vivian M. Amis, of South Boston, Va., spent the week-end with her parents and relatives at Huntersville. Miss Lucille Alexander is spending the summer in Win ston-Salem. Mrs. Alabama Berry and her daughter Edna and some friends were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Alexander and family a few days ago.

JOTTINGS FROM WOODLAND By Margie Z. Davidson Mrs. McCleary passed away on the 14th of July. Mrs. Mc Cleary was the wife of the late Mr. Alexander McCleary. Her funeral took place at 3 o’clock, Sunday, July 15th. Rev. R. Z. Beatty officiated. He used as his text, “Blessed are the dead who die, in the Lord.” Mrs. McCleary had been sick for some time. We loved her, but Christ loved her more. Mr. H. C. Davison, of Newark, N. J., spent a few days at home recently. Mr. Davison was called home on account of the illness of his mother, Mrs. Lila J.
