Awmbled;'
.•% «Wm," A. Stroud, secretary
and treasurer, beg leave to sub
mit my annual report covering a
period trogi December 10, 1934,
to December 10, 1935. We have
In force att serl^ 2,255 shares.
56 of whl^ being the seventh
series, is. nbw matured, and have
been paid- «cept two share hold
ers who desire to exchange for
full paid stock.
"We have loaned during the
year $41,010.00. The total prof
its during tha year will be ap
proximately $6,500.00 and ex
penses as follows: State license
and Audit $260.08, advertising
and printing $10.00, treasurer’s
bond $20.00.
“I am glad to report another
good year. All amounts in ar
rears reported at our last annual
meeting have been paid. Our col
lections or payments have been
better this year and while we
have a few share holders who are
in arrears most of whom are
only due one mouth, there is only
one more than six months in
arrear, all of these In my opin
ion, will pay up before the end of
the year.
"We have not yet lost anything
and our earnings for this year
will enable us to apportion the

the
Resolution on account of
death of William C. Pearson;
Whereas William C. Pearson,
who passed to his reward on De
cember 10. nineteen hundred
thirty-five, was a member of the
Wilkesboro Building and Loan
Association and had been a mem-
}ier ot its board of directors for
several years during which time
he had served on the loan com
mittee, and
Whereas his interest in the
welfare ot the association as a
community project has been well
known to this body both as to
{jjs wi.sdom in the making of
pafe loans by the association and
his deep sympathy for any
worthy member who found him
self temporarily pressed to meet
))i8 obligations to the association
and likewise for the man who
found himself in need of a loan
and perhaps with not the best
rated property to offer as secur
ity but with character that he
rated much higher.
Therefore be it resolved:
1st, That this Association feels
desiply its loss in the passing of
.Mr. Pearson and hereby publicly
gives expression to this loss.
2nd. That we desire to express
to the family and friends of .Mr.
Pearson our deep sympathy in
ihelr loss.
3rd. That a copy of this reso
lution l>e recorded in the minutes
of the associatiou and one sent
to the family and also a copy to
each of the local newspapers.

was astounded at the use of bi
cycles for transportation pur
poses. Each has a rack on the
rear and I saw riders carrying
loads as heavy as 400 pounds.’
The North Carolinian said To-
klo was the cleanest city in the
world, and probably Honolulu
was the most beautiful city he
saw on the trip. "I -u'as so home
sick I doubt if I appreciated its
beauty,’’ he added. Representa
tive Doughton doubts very seri
ously that the Philippine Islands
will be able to maintain their In
dependence.
“We have carried out our
promise and I hope the islands
succeed in maintaining their own
government, but they are con
fronted with many serious ob
stacles,’’ he asserted. He refer
red to a lack of national patriot
ism in the islands because of the
number ot provinces with differ
ent ideas and the pressure which
will come from business interests
there tor the United States to
maintain control In order to en
joy duty free the American
market for sugar, cocoanut oil,
cordage and other products.
The congressman does not look
for any armed Invasion from Ja
pan, but believes that country
may try an “industrial con
quest.’’
Doughton visited textile mills
while in Japan and marvelled at
the growth of the industry there.
He said the Japanese textile in
dustry was a threat to the indus
try of any nation. "I stood on top
of a building in Tokio and the
smokestacks made you think you
wore in Pittsburgh,’’ he asserted.
Asked about labor conditions in
the mills,'he said;
“The labor standards so far as
working conditions are concern
ed are high. Mo children under
14 years are permitted to work
in the mills. Those between 14
and IS are permitted to work
eight hours and no person works
more than nine. The wages are
low, but it does not lake much
for the workers to live on.”

O, what a meeting that will b®
On that celestial shore.
Where Jesus reigns In majesty
And there we’ll part no more.
Love is the greatest principle
of religion. Without love the
world would be in a more ter
rific crisis than It now is. Take
love out of the home and what
would be the result? Nothing but
envy, strife and evil surviving.
Take love out of the church and
where would It drift? There
would be no peace, joy or happi
ness. Her Influence for good
would be annihilated. Take love
out of the Sunday school and
what would be the result? Why.
there wmuld be no Interest taken
In It, no union or harmony, no
clasping ot glad hands when we
meet each other and no anxiety
to meet again. Knowing all this,
we should cultivate t’.ie principle
of love toward God and our fel-
lowmau that It might grow
stronger and stronger until we
feel like embracing each other in
our arms, in peace, joy and
thanksgiv;ng to our great Feder
al head, Jesus, who bought us
with a price. Who came down
from the shining courts above to
sav© poor rebelious men and
women from their lost estate.
Yes, Jesus, the only son of God.
His father was so condescending,
80 kind and full of love that he
yielded to the mandate of his'
father, to lake upon himself a
body of flesh likenunto ours, sin
excepted, and was willing to suf
fer all the persecutions and 111
treatment that sinful men and
ruffians could inflict upon Him.
Even unto death. Was this not
superhuman love? Yes, the love
of God that reaches deeper than
the stain ot sin has gone. Ah! We
ought to love Him supremely for
he first loved us, and command
ed us to love Him and to love
on© another and to work for Him
in trying to win lost souls unto
Him. By good works and a God
ly conversation . showing to the
world that we have passed from
death unto life and that w© want
sinners to share in His great love
as we have through repentance
and faith In His word, showing
to the unsaved that we love the
brotherhood and are willing to
bear each other’s burdens through
life, helping each other out of
distress and adversities, fulfilling
the conunandments.
We should b© punctual also to
our engagements to our church,
to our pastor, to our Sunday
school work. Punctual to our eve
ning and morning devotions, eith
er In private or public. God has
ever been punctual to fulfill all
his promises, to fulfil them in
du© sea.son. He requires the same
of His people. But oh! How often
we fail to comply with our en
gagements. Nevertheless He Is so
lenient and patient with us that
he does not impart justice to-
gratitude of our h^rte ^nday
possible for us to render to > '
great name tor hie mlndfubt^W
and watoheare over ue, j$a4 for
us. May He help us to ^i^brisaae
our love for HUa and our broth
ers and sisters Ui Chrlatji^ for
the poor careless slnnbw. May
God in His Infllnite wisdom and
mercy devise some ^ nM|i^> by
which the unsaved of our-erfuntry
will turn from their sins attd seok
the Lord while He may he found,
ere th© night of death overtakes
them and they will have toAl^d
eternity In th© dark donujpbs it
the rich man’s oblivion—^ittoere
peace, joy and happinew 'Wlli nev

who stand upon the wKl^ of
Zion cry the alarm to tal^dying
world so forcibly that they can
not resist the power of the gos
pel but turn from sin and folly,
accept the salvation before the
night of death comes to claim
you for Jesus Is more than life
to all who will accept Hiim Jesus,
the only hope of salvation—Blest
be His name, now and ever more.
