Mr; W. W. Stedman returned Sun
day from Columbia, S. C., whore be
attended a meeting of the County
i oilicers of the Federal Farjp Loan
Associations of Nprth Carolina.
Misses Hilda Wilkie, and Pauline
Ray motored to Durham on Monday
and spent Easter Day \yith friends
there.
Easter Sunday passed off very
iuietly in and around Moncure. There
: were services at the Methodist
; Church both morning and Ivening,
; Rev. C. M. Lance preached two good
sermons. The morning service was a
real Easter Service. His text was
found in John 12:24.
His theihe was. “Storing or Plant
i lug our Lives.’*
Thfe Epworth League met at sever!
o’clock in the evening, but on account
of church services at 8 o’clock, there
was just a short service. Mr. Lance
gave us information on the rules and
regulations of the league.
Miss Catherine Thomas, the presi
dent apointed Missr Hilda Wilkie, Ep
worth Era Agent. A club of five
subscriptions have already been secur
ed.
The text for the evening service
was Jesus said, “I am the Way,
the Truth, and the Life,” John 14:6*
We enjoyed both sermons for they
were facts concerning the Resurrec
tion of Jesus and also the resurrec
tion and the immortality o£ the soul
as the word of God plainly teaches it.
This lesson, contains the greatest*ef
fort and consolation to all ftvho Re
lieve in Him, when we stand by the
open grave and see those whom we
love laid away. The great Easter les
son to all of us is that we Shall live
forever, if we trust and have faith
in Him. We therefore need to live
close to Him, so we may be pre
pared for the life that awaits the
children of God.
A good number of young people
and other ones spent their Easter
on the banks of the rivers fishing.
; Some had luck to catch some fish,
while others did not; but getting
ready to fish, preparing bait, secur
ing reeds and corks were enjoyed as
much as fishing itself.
Many of the younfg people; and.
citizens of Moncure motprpd. tg • Ry

We would like to call the attention
of all fishing parties coming -to Buck
horn thaf it is in open violation of
our state law enacted by some' sepcial
legislation some 12 * years ago, for
any one to fish with any kind of a net
in Buckhorn creek. We now have a
deputy sheriff at Buckhorn, so no
one will likely do any netting without
being caught.
