XD COUNTY "SOBER WORDS." The Standard must insist upon its subscribers net to k!ay in set tling their subscriptions. If we did not need the nior.ey, and uight now, the matter could sock along jast so. Needing it and the sub! scriptions being due, are reasons for urging a heed to this call.

Mr. Page and hi3 family will be greatly missed in the church a d the community, but such are the fortunes of war and of the Methodist ministry. Statesville Landmark.

What a Cow a Vim I)o The Standard wants to tell about a common blooded cow that took the first premium at our last fair as such. This cow las done her duty, and there k nothing hi her record to make her feel ashamed. From November 1, 1801, to a0 vember 1, 1892, this cow produced the milk that furnished a family of four and produced all the butter that was needed. But here it is: The surplus was sold and amounted in pounds to 303, or in dollars (it being engaged at a stated price) to $00. CO. During the year the saleable food she ate would not have amounted to over ten dollars of course the clover and grass during their seasons are not tuken into consideration. And we do not stop to asset t that the fen tilizer enters into the column of profits. This common blooded cow belongs to Mr. W D Ritchie", of St. John's, and it is needless to remark that he was once a pupil of tins scribe but we had nothing to do with his train ing looking to the care of a cow. (ilvrn Leave of Absence. As the Standard before remarked: If Kev. W G Campbell, pastor of St. James Lutheran church, wanted his resignation accepted he would have to hand it into some congregas tioa other than the one he ecrved. As foreshadowed by the congrega tional meeting a week as;o the resign nation was not accepted, bat an agreement waa entered into at the congregational meeting Sunday which grants Mr. Campbell a leave of absence long enough to accom plish a purpose near hia heart: Placing his only child, little Miss Bessie, in a school and there direct ing himself her earlier SGhool life. Rather than accept Mr. Campbell's resignation the congregation granted him this vacation, so to speak, So about the 1st of January Mr. Campt bell and family will go to Harris burg, Pa., where Mr. Campbell takes an important position in an exeeh lent school for young ladles. In the latter part of May" he will return and serve his congregation through the months of June, July and August, lu the mean time the congregation will be served by Rev. J M lledrick and other ministers. The unanimity with which this arrangement was made, attests the deep and warm attachment between people and pastor, which is no less now than at any time during the seven ycars pastorate. Farewell! Farewell! Rev. II W Bays, D. D., who has served the Central M E church here for two year3, but who ha3 been transfered and stationed at Abbe-, ville, held his last service on Sun day. A Standard reporter says Dr. Bay's farewell remarks were touch, ing and superb. The deep, pain ful silence was only broken by sups pressed weeping. Dr. Bays is an incessant worker and a great student, and his labors in Concord have been deservedly fruitful. With him and his elegant family there follow the richest and warm est wishes of his congregition and Concord people in general. The "Old Man's' Experience.

SnltKtaiitlal 1'liarily. The Charlotte News has this to say about some charity work in Con cord : "Bev.

Coonlz, who died sud denly by poison about two years ago, When he came he found only a small congregation and that very poor. He at once brought the odds and ends together, established a free day school, and by unceasing labor has a large school and his congre gation is in a flourishing condition He found his dock in a very bad cordition to tdand the rigors of winter, in some cases almost desti lute of clothing and really 3nfferi.ig. He made the fact known to his Lutheran friends North and West through his church paper and they have responded liberally iu the way of clothing, shoes and bedding About $1,000 in these articles have been given to the needy without re gard to creed and many who few days ago were in rags, are now well clothed and prepared to work during the winter. This is substantial charity and the world should know it and Mr. Bakke should have the credit." DO YOU KNOW HOW TO SAVE MOXEY? Luyjiour Goods a t Can nons 6-Fctzcv's.
