THE FOREST CITY COURIER,TH URSDAY, JUNE 10, 1926 PRESBYTERIAN NEWS NOTES From Points in Rutherford County of General and Local Interest For Informa tion of the General Ccunty Public. Presbyterians in Rutherford coun ty are often approached by unin formed Christians of other denom inations with the question, "How many Presbyterians in Rutherford county?" "There seem to be very few." That the facts might be known this article is written to convey information not generally known to the church going public. There are at present time nine organized Presbyterian churches in the county, Rutherfordton, Brittain, Union Mills, Duncan's Creek, Cliff side, Ellenboro, Chimney Rock, For est City, Spindale, and Bostic. In connection with these churches there are seven mission points regularly served by the ministers of the or ganized churches. The member ship of the organized churches and missions totals nearly 1,000. In 1925 alone 100 new members were added to the rolls of the churches. The ministers serving these several fields are Rev. W. L. Latham, Ruth erfordton church, with Chimney Rock and Spindale; Rev. R. W. Montgom ery, Forest City and ClifFside; Rev. R. T. Baker, Brittain, Dunca'ns Creek, Union 'Mills and one mis sion; Rev. O. C. Huston, Ellenboro and Bostic with four mission points; Rev. Geo. R. Gillespie, superintend ent of home missions, with head quarters at Forest City. For a number of years the work of the Presbyterian church in Ruth erford county suffered a period of stagnation and depreciation solely through the lack of evangelism and aggressive personal work. The num bers seem very few and the work very small, yet when compared to the rapid growth of other denomina tions in the county, notwithstanding which the Presbyterians have in the past two or three years made a steady advancement in increase of member's and outstanding gifts to the causes of the church and every thing outside for the advancement of county and community interests. Primarily the reason for this later growth is due to the splendid type of Christian ministers who have ac cepted work in these churches, their untiring zeal, and consecrated to the winning of souls, as the supreme task of the church of today. Also the high standard and spirit of the splen did co-operation of other denomina tions, not alone in the larger towns but all over the county, the spirit of unity and brotherly has been, and is exceptionally fine. Presbyterians stand first for faith in Christ, clean, pure, wholesome living. Christian fel lowship with all in the very best and highest ii/terests of the whole coun ty and community. CHRIST, NOT CREED, is emblazoned on the Pres byterian banner. sfc * £ Rev. R. W. Montgomery, of Bishopville and Columbia, S. C., preached two splendid sermons at the Forest City Presbyterian church Sunday morning and night, and one at Cliffside church in the afternoon. Mr. Montgomery, by unanimous vote of officers, was engaged to supply /fie Forest City and Cliffside church es through June, July and August. This arrangement will afford preach ing services every Sunday morning and night at the Presbyterian j church. i Mr. Montgomery is a student at Columbia Theological Seminary and Forest City Presbyterians are de lighted that they were able to secure his services for the summer. Mr. Gillespie will continue to make head quarters in Forest City and supple ment the preaching services at the church when necessary. Sunday school with classes for all ages and sizes next Sunday at 10 a. m. Competent teachers will welcome all who come. Preaching by Mr. Montgomery at 11 a. m. and 8 p. m. Prayef meet ing every Wednesday night. Mr. Montgomery will also have charge of the pastoral work preach ing and Sunday school at Cliffside. All who do not have church homes and do not attend other churches are most cordially invited to this little church with, a "big" welcome. MR. JOHN CAMPBELL DIES IN DEEP WELL 0 Bostic, Route 2, June "7.—One of the most tragic events to ever hap pen in this section occurred recently when Mr. John Campbell was as phyxiated by gas in a deep well on the place of Mr. Frank Beatty, near Sunshine. Dynamite was placed in the well and did not go off. Mr. Campbell, knowing nothing of the gas went into the well. He stayed in the well about 30 minutes. Soon after he went in, someone called to him and failed to get an answer. Those at the top of the well could hear him struggling for breath. After some de lay, Mr. Beatty, who had been ill for several days went into the well with the rope tied to him and brought Mr. Campbell out, but Beatty was overcome with gas and was speech less for some time. The well was about 55 feet deep. Mr. Campbell is said to have drawn one breath after being loosened from the rope. Mr. Beatty recovered, but still shows signs of his bitter experience. The dynamite poisoned the water, form ing carbon dioxide gas. Mr. Campbell was 29 years old and the son of Mr. James Campbell. He leaves his parents, three brothers, Messrs. Lee, Grady and Willie Camp bell and five sisters, besides a host of friends and Relatives. Funeral services were conducted at Cedar Grove Methodist church at Sunshine with Rev. W. M. Gold and Wright in charge. One of the larg est crowds in the history of the church attended the funeral and in terment. NOTICE OF SALE OF REAL ESTATE Under and by virtue of the power of sale contained in a certain deed of trust executed and delivered unto the undersigned trustee by W. F. Hames and Willie Hames and wife, Grace Hames, on the 24th day of August, 1925, and duly recorded in the office of the Register of Deeds of Rutherford county. North Caro lina, in Book A-2 at page 15, and de fault having been made in the pay ment therein specified and secured by the said bonds and deed of trust: Now therefore, I, T. J. Moss, the undersigned trustee, will on Saturday the third day of July 1926, at the hour of 12 o'clock noon, ! the Extra Process for Extra Miles! Breaks all Tire Records The 400 Mile Speed Classic at Indianapolis has always been a Battle of Tires. In 1911, Firestone won with fabric tires at 74-59 miles per hour. In 1920, Firestone won with cord tii;es at 88.55 miles per hour. In 1925, Firestone won with Full-Size Gum-Dipped Balloons at the record breaking average speed of 101.13 miles per hour. In 1926, Firestone again won with Full-Size Gum-Dipped Balloons. The ten cars to finish "in the money" were all Firestone-equipped,. They went the distance without a single blowout and with but two tire failures—one due to a puncture and the other to a leaky valve. ' . . ... This performance is even more remarkable when you consider the ■aiMii— terrific speeds at which the cars traveled over this fifteen-year-old, rough brick track. TUp Firpetnnp T? frTirrl Experienced race drivers will not risk their lives or chances I of victory on any other tires. And in the commercial field, large 0"f TirPV; truck, motorbus and taxicab fleet operators, who keep careful cost records are among the big users of Firestone Gum-Dipped Tires, oj- TndirinanollS City Transportation Co., of Tacoma, Wash., writes: "One * t of our 12 buses on Firestone Gum-Dipped Tires has gone over • "* 40,600 miles and still looks good for many miles of extra service Year Driver Car Tires Hour all around tire safety and mileage, Firestone cannot be beat." 1911 Harroun Marmon Firestone 74.59 s From Calumet Motor Coach Co., Hammond, Ind., the following: 1912 Dawsoa National Michelin 78.70 1 "We operate 40 buses all equipped with Gum-Dipped Tires.
