A Raleigh correspondent to the Charlotte Observer says: Recently your correspondent made mention of the orphan school at Marion, of which Miss Perry is in charge. It was stated v that she was a Christian Scientist, but as a matter of fact she is not, but is a Holiness woman. Her work there is very wonderful, and"; she says that prayer and faith ' bring to her supplies for all needs. She is the daughter of a local Methodist minister' and took a special course as a missionary. " "According to a di'patfh from . Denver, the Rey. Frank W. Gun. gains, of Chicago, is quoted as making this utterance: The one man oi tne world wno matches J u'sus Christ in seriousness of pur pose, in purity of life, ia the Pres ident cf the United States, Thee- : dore Roosevelt.' It is fair to sus pend judgment until the eorrect ' neses of the reported utterance is confirmed." Charleston Post. v
