' Annual Meeting of Woman's Mission, ary Union, of the Robeson Associa. tion. Reported for The Robesonian. The Woman's Missionary Union of the Robeson Association held its annual meeting with the church at Red Springs on July roth and 17th. The attendance was very good al though quite a number of societies were not represented. Our meetings have always been held in October, but it was thought best last year to make a change, in the hope that more young people could attend, and the season be. more favorable for house-keepers. The change did not result in any improved conditions, so that, hreafter meet ings will be held in October, as before. Red Springs was cordial in its wel come to the visitors, and we were made to feel at home by the many kindnessesfhown. The vice-president, Mrs. R. D. Cald well, very ably conducted the meet, ings, taking up the business of the association in the mornings. The sub. ject of tithing was very forcibly pre sented by an earnest worker. A num. bee of women gave their personal ex perience along this line. "Special Needs of Our Society," "Personal Ser. vice." ind-'Plan for Development' were subjects for general discussion, and this pioved to be very helpfu'.. . On Wednesday night the Y. WH A.s of Red cmings presented, in a p-ay. the need of missionary endeavor. Fol lowing this Rev. C. H. Durham rave an addnsr on the Judson Cento ir.iai. It was an appeal straight to the heart of every child. On Thursday morning another feast was enjoyed. Rev. L. Johnson came, as always, with a 'cheerful face, and heart overflowing with love for ' his task. His address was- illustrated with views of the churches which the women and children have helped to build. The Sunbeam conference, led by Mrs. Hedgpeth, was held on Thursday afternoon. The regret at this time was that so few Sunbeam leaders were present. Very interesting exer cises were given by the bands from Ashpole and Red Springs, also by a class of girls from Union chapel. The following officers were re-elect. ed: Vice-president, Mrs. R. D. Cald well; secretary, Mrs. H. T. Pope; band superintendent, Mrs. I. P. Hedgpeth. Miss Belle Tyner, who has worked in the capacity of associational mission- j ary for a part of the year, resigned. Miss Mary Livermore of Red Springs was appointed to fill this position. In a financial way the societies have done well. Owing to the change of the time of meeting, a 'report was made for only three quarters, yet many societies reached the propor tionate aim. A statement of finances will not here be given, but in the min utes of the general association a re port for the entire year will be giv en. The . meeting was a very helpful one, from the fact that those who did attend were thoroughly in earnest, and that our sisters are beginning to realize that the meeting is theirs, and not the leaders only. A pleasing feature "of our gathering was an informal reception given by Miss Livermore at her home. A rising votle of thanks was tendered the' church and people of Red Springs for their kind hospitality. Everything that could be, was done for our pleas ure and comfort. The next meeting will be held with the church at St. Paul's the third week in October, 19141 Mrs. H. T. POPE, Secretary. THE FINAL SUMMONS. Mrs. Susan Elizabeth McCormick. Fairmont Messenger, 14th.

Bellamy and Col. Walker Tay lor, of Wilmington, have been men tioned, in conection with the guberna torial contest, when the time comes, Mr. Bellamy gave out a statement yesterday in which he said that he could not say postively that he would be in the race, but that he most likely would be.

Mr. Bellamy has served this district in Congress and is one of the leading lawyersof the State.

WATCH-Watch the label on yew mm w- paper., reaewau are sot la by date The September Woman's Home Com panion. The September Woman's Home Companion is an advance Autumn Fashion Number1. There is an unus ual display of short stories, special articles, regular departments and art features, but, in addition, the Fashion Department under the direction of Grace Margaret Gould, fashion editor, is enlarged to twenty pages, and- in cludes a tremendous variety of facta and ideas about dress, which will be particularly useful to women at thg season of the year. The Companion's fashion policy is interestng and sensible. The idea is to present all the latest facts about' fashions but when it comes to mak ing suggestions and preparing pat. terns for American women the ex. tremes and the foolish novelties are disregarded and a "middle of the road course" is taken. In other words women are shown how they can dress fashionably, and yet modestly,'; and economically. Miss Gould is opposed to the eccentric and starting in fash ions, and, with great ability, suc ceeds . in being practical, reasonable, and, at the same time, artistic. In the same issue of the Woman's Home Companion the campaign for better babies is carried forward with" great vigor. Hundreds of baby shows of the new sort are being held all over the United States this summer and autumn. At these Better Babies contests babies are judged on a score card precisely as livestock is scored, according, to strict, scientific stand ards. By means of these score cards thousands of apparently perfect ba bies have been found to have some defect, easily remedied, and of real importance, that might not have been discovered until serious harm nad re Three Men Wounded in Attempt to Lynch Negro. Spartanburg, S. C, Dispatch, 18th. Three men, Frank Epley, J. C. Ow enby and John Turner were seriously wounded tonight when a mob stormed the county jail in an effort to lynch Will Fair, a negro prisoner, charged with assaulting a young white woman near here today. Sheriff White, and a deputy, facing the mob alone, re peatedly drove them back with pistol shots ' when they advanced with bat tering arms. Members of the mob finally re turned the fire and in the darkness the three men were struck They were not fatally wounded but were taken to a hospital for attention. The young woman was assaaulted in a lonely farm house this morning in the absence of her husband. ,.
