"SOBER WORDS."
The Standard must insist upon
its EUDficnberj net to delay in set
tling their subscription?, if we did
not need the money, and right
xow, the matter could bock along
just so. Needing it and the sub!
script ions being due, are reasons for
urging a heed to this call. Whilst
you may not owe but a dollar that
tickles us and does us good.
To those ho owe for over a year
we are sending statements through
the mails we believe many ha've
overlooked the matter and forgotten
just how it therefore we adopt
this method to let them know how
their snbscrictions sfand, feeling as
sured they will appreciate the
matter.
On the firs? of January, we will
drop all names due for more than a
year and from that date the Stand
ard will be in every case $1 00,
in advance, per annum; and fl.2o
on time. We have been for:ed to
this in justice to those who pay
promptly. Then for the last thrte
years we have been running the
Standard for glory, as the unpaid
subscriptions represent what profit
there wa3 in it. We've enough of
glory for this world the balauce of
our glory we are arranging daily to
secure when we all meet "beyond the
river."
Xow, Gentlemen and Fellow Citiv
zens and Ladies, we hope to see your
kind attention to these solur ind
earnest statements.

as a general thing, are so small that
no cue ever expects them to have an

to a high salaried position in an ex

gregational meeting on Sunday did
not look like Kev. W G Campbell
would ever gst bis resignation acs
cepted from that body, at least. No
formal action was taken upon the
resignation, but from expressions
made each one becomes a committee
within itself to urge Mr. Campbell
to submit to his resignation to be
not accepted, ayt to remain with
the congregation! that is warmly ats

well known ia Cabarrus.
It is eleven years today since Pev.

his pastorate ot St. Paul's Evangeli
cal Lutheran Church in this city.
Since that tiuie-, day by day and year
by year, he has labored faithfully
mid well for the good of his church
and the welfare of the community.
It must be gratifying to Dr. Peschau
to Into', aaJ to feel that under his
lo.r-viinjr fare ins church ha3 grown
ar.u ' rcipeied, and that he hai won
not only the esteem but the affection
of many iu the community who are
not of i us church, yet, as he would
say ia the warn.uess of his heart, are
of Lis people. His departure from
