PROTRACTED MEETING
Series of Meetings This Week at
Chestnut Street Methodist Church
Sermons by Rev- Dr. W. B.
North Other Church News.
' A protracted meeting has been in
progress at Chestnut Street Methodist
church since SaturaayrK?v. vr. .
B. North, pastor of the church, do
ing the preaching. Services are con
ducted every evening at 7:30 o'clock
and the meeting will continue through
this week.
An Advocate With God
Dr. North's text Sunday morning
iho mh vprs of the bth chapter
of Revelations: And another angel
nmn onrf ctnnd .it. the altar, havinc
a golden censer; and there was given
unto him incense, that he should of
fer it with the prayers of all saints
upon the golden altar which was be-
fs.i.c iVa t.Virnnn.
The preacher said in part: There
is hnmnnit.v' in heaven in the form
of Jesus Christ; ana mere is an in.
numerable host there as proof of the
power oi the blocd of Jesus to save
sinners. The staints, that is, Chris
tian people who love and serve God,
should pray often, in the spirit, in
earnest, importunately. It is an
amazing thir- - that there are so many
professing Christians . and still the
world has not been evangelized; it
is amazing that 'Christians do no
more than they do to extend the
kingdom of God. If sin caused the
Son of God to die, the Word to as
sume human form, if it opens up hell
nd' destroys the hope of men, we
ought to be convinced of its hein
ousness. The prayers of even saints
are of no availJ without an interces
sorexcept by Jesus. How should
the sinner feel when he comes to God
in prayer and remembers that he has
an advocate! Nothing could inspire
the people of God more in the be
ginning of a meeting than to know
that Jesus adds his intercessions to
our prayers. ,
A Great Need of the Church is
Strength
But they that wait upon the Lord
-shall renew their strength; they shall
mount up with wings as eagles; they
shall run, and not be weary; and they
shall walk, and not faint. Isaiah 40,
31st verse.
This was the text Monday evening.
One of the greatest needs of the
church is strength. Often we fail
to put the proper estimate upon our
task when we think of conquering
our wills. There are so many wrecks
where men have fallen because they
were weak; so many are conquered by
satan because they do not exercise
proper strength. We contemplate the
majesty of God but still fail to plac?.
proper etsimate upon the strength of
mind and soul nc-cessnry to measure
d to the Christian life. "Work out
your own salvation .with fear and
trembling." If a man seeks money
he must use the methods by which
money is to be obtained; if a man
farms, he must use proper farming
method?. We should read and study
the 'Scriptures to obtain knowledge
of Cod, pnd'kncwlodge of God is re
ligion. Study of the Word of God
is superior to 11 other studies in
frengtening 'the mind Another
means, cf -obtaining strength is ob
serving the holy ordinances .of the
rhnrrh, By 4fe -word of-God wc can
defeat the devil and 'win a glorious
-victory.

HOGS RUNNING AT LARGE
No Fence Law Not Well Observed
Owing to Large Acreage in Winter
Cover Crops Hogs Should be Kept
" Up ' - - ' " ,
To the Editor of The Robesoman:
Will you please allow me space in
ycur paper to say a few words rel
ative to hogs running at lure?
The no-fence law ha3 been in ef
fect for about 15 years, and for a
f-jw year? just after it -came into ef
fect . it- seem e dt o - b e- regarded . as ja,
law, or at least more so than it has
been for the last few years. In some
sections there seems to be between
the people an understanding to turn
their hogs out in the fall after crops
ait gathered, but this does not af
fect the law against such; neither does
it keep these hogs from going into
cthei sections where people do not
turn their hogs out
The result of such is that those
who keep their hogs up have to be
annoyed and worried by the hogs of
others.
In other sections there is no un
derstanding as to turning the hogs
out, but some turn them out anyway.
It is one of the things I do not
l:ke to do, to have to keep after a
neighbor or friend about his hogs.
It if an embarrassment to anyone
who has any respect for his neighbor
or. friend.
Owing to the large acreage being
sown to oats, wheat, rye and other
winter cover crops it will be very
necessary that hogs be kept up this
fall and winter.
Why could not the rural policemen
pay a little attention to this? I
third' it would be very much appre
ciated by many and would not be
much trouble for them.

DEATH OF H. T, McKINNON
Native of Robeson County Closes Suc
cessful Career Died in Charlotte
Tuesday. " j
Charlotte Observer, 3d." i
Ending an illnsss that had extend-
cu over a period of several months,!

rears old. Mr. and Mrs. Hawley, a
crotier, Mr. L. '. McKinnon of
Brunswick, Ga., and other relatives

successful career. Born in Robeson

early life to Georgia, where by en.
,-ug:ng in the turpentine and lumber
jnuustries he amassed a fortune. He
had" then returned to his native State
io spend nis declining years, sur
tributed materially to the progress of
this city.
EARLY LIFE
Mr. McKinnon was' born October
?2,1845, near the town cf St. Paul's,
lie was a son of J"ohn McKinnon
n,l Katherine McNair McKinnon.
Ilii grandfather, Kenneth McKinnon,
t:id come to this country rom
Scotland. On November 26, 1872,
. McKinnon was married to Miss
.Msry T. McMillan in St. Paul's. Soon
afterward they moved to Georgia,
where financial success awaited their
coming and where in the turpentine
and lumber industries Mr. McKinnon
won a high and influential place by
tho skill and industry which he ex
hibited in the management of his
ausiness affairs. They lived near St.
Mary's, Ga., where through the ef
.I'orts of Mr. McKinnpn a Presbyte
rian churchwas - -DoiiWw
later they, mowed to Florence, S. C.

the McKinnon 'building 'on North
Tryon street and had a number of
other investments hero. Although he
had rare aptitude for business and a
quality of judgment that is rarely
met with, the range of his interests
w'ase much broader than the realm
of commerce. He had read widely
and traveled much, and was swell in
formed Cn a yariet- of topics. He
was unostentatious and - sincere - in
word and action. The inner circle
of his friends knew best the quali

for him and his for them was recip
rocal and mutual.
Mr. McKinnon was a Confederate
soldier and a popular member of

erate Veterans. The members of the
camp will meet this afternoon at 3
o'clock at the city hall to attend the

D. A. McPHAIL
Resolutions of Respect from the B.
Y. P. U. and Berean class of the
East Lumberton Baptist church.
Whereas, the great and supreme
Ruler of the Universe has in His in
finite wisdom removed from among
us our worthy and esteemed and one
of our most faithful fellow workers,
D. A. McPhail, and whereas, the
close and intimate relations held with
him in the faithful discharge of his
duties in this union and Sunday school
make is necessary and eminently
befitting that we record our apprecia
tion of .him;
Therefore, be it resolved:
(1) That the wisdom and ability
which he at all times pxhibited in the
aid of our union and Berean class
will be held in grateful and loving re
membrance. (2) That his unusual tenacity of
-T'irnosp, which made it possible for
the Un'on and Berean class to rely
on him implicity for the early and
satisfactory completion of every duty
given him will be always remembered
with admiration.
(3) That the removal of such a beau
tiful life from among us leaves a
vacancy which must be deeply re
gretted and a shadow that will be
realized by all the members and
friends of this Union and Sunday
school and will prove a very serious
loss to the entire community.
(4) That we express our deep sym
pathy with the bereaved relatives.
