Therefore let us look at the bright .side, and attend diligently to our af fairs, and everything will be well. Rev W R Davis, ur beloved pas tor, held 'a meeting of days at the Proctorville Baptist church last week and such a meeting the writer has not enjoyed in quite a while. Mr. Davis is a very forceful preacher, and he with great intelligence and spirit pointed out to the transgres sor the way. the truth, and the life, as planned 'out by Jesus Christ when he was on earth fulfilling his great mission, whereby the world is to be brought to Christ. There were sev eral confessions, and seven additions tn tho church, and very likely will be others later. The church also was greatly revived, -and the cause tliereby advanced. - Rev. K. Barnes and wife and lit tle girl went to Marion, S. C, Sat--tsr4jgjgfh'r-! 4bj8jr.iJKill . fcpend. .a few days visiting friends and " rVmdWsff fflr. Barnes had an appointment to preach Sunday at one of the churches he used to pastor. No doubt but his return was enjoyed by many of his former flock, also by himself and family. We are sorry to chronicle the con tinued illness of Mrs. M. R. Moody. She has for some time been suffer ing with rheumatism and is unable to take care of her house duties. We trust she may soon be restored to her former state of health. Quite a number of out-of-town peo ple attended the meeting here last week and seemed to enjoy it very much. We invite them cordially to come again. Messrs H Barnes and son, Dem sey, and Prof. C. L. Fisher spent Saturday night and Sunday at Fair Bluff on a combined business and pleasure trip. Mr. (Barnes has a nice farm near there which requires his personal attention very often. Mr. W. J. Walters is progressing very nicely on his new building on the corner of Spruce street and Rail road avenue. It is in the same place where his building was which was destroyed by fire last winter. The town officials have made some improvement recently to the town in the way of some needed sidewalks. We wish to encourage anything that goes to beautify our little town. Owing to the protracted meeting last week, the missionary day exer cises of the Sunday school were post poned Sunday and will be had on the second Sunday in April. There will be an interesting program provid ed, and the community at large is invited to be present.

Those who own these houseR paid for them with rent money. They paid for them in small weekly insta!!ments and never missed the money. It was money they otherwise would have spent foolishly, perhaps, and would not today know where it had gone if they had not been wise enough to p'jt it where it would "count. The would still be pouring money in a rent hole. Let us show you How Robeson Building and Loan Association C V. BROWN, Sec At National Bank of Lumberton Make Good Work Possible.
