W M Shaw preached his last sermon at Bethpage Presbyterian church. , It was a ead day-for his many warm friends to think that perhaps these were the last words from the lips oi him who has endeared himself to these people by words of comfort and cheer from the sacred volume, also the last words of admopitionj so gently and appropriately rendered. His Betmoa was based on ;he dox ology of the Epistle of Jade, in whicir. ha beautifully exhorted the people to earnestly contend for and continue in the faith once delivered to Mile saints also showing the cartainty of the execution of j aug ment upon all the. ungodly with all their wicked deeds, and showing the abundant sufficiency of , ?tho .Lord Jesus Christ to present all hia fol lpwer3 faultless before tiiej presence of hia glory with exceeding joy commend his hearers unto the only wise God, to whom only we should give all the honor and glory, he closed his discourse. j ' Kev. Shaw then read a short act count of his work at Bethpage and from a report taken from the rec ords, it was shown that during the six years labor there was taken into the church sixtytwq by examina t:on, twentytwo by. letter-pa total of eightyfour, and infant baptisms about fiftyseyen. j The congregation contributed to all causes $3 . 678.00, an average of $613,00 each year. The) present, membership numbers 2u0. Thus closes :his labors among us, - i May the blessings of Almighty God go and abide with' him and hia dear ones to his new field of la. bor.

Some of the colored people COMMENTING ON OUR TOWN. seem to know him and say is a preacher. that he Wanteo: A Correspondent. ! j The following dainty little veree was found at the bottom of an or ange box in a store in Elkin during Christmas. Perhaps some of our lady readers would like to hear from the gentleman, so we publish his production, 'just for fun:" - 1 am a single man of twentyone, 1 I pick oranges from sun to sun, i And if some pretty girl wants to correspond for fun, Jnst address E A Dunn, Homeland, Fia. j Here are some excellent maxims which it would be well to remem ber : ; ' i j.

There is no service like bis who serves because-he loves. Ex1. The Honest Confessions By Other Towns Concord Sets the Example. Following is what the I Oxford Ledger has to say about our town: "The town of Concord has a pop ulation of 6,000. For fifteen: years it has been without a bar room. Only one policeman . is employed or needed. Thirty-two hundred of its citizens belong to some proteetant church. Nearly $2,000,000 are in vested in factories and everybody who wants work gets it. A capital system of public schools provides education for all the children; banking facilities, are good." : Following is what the Greenville Reflector says: f - j . f.ja "This goes ahead of Greenville, still there are those who4 openly as sert that liquor is - an ' essential part of town's prosperity. It is a thing hard to be understood how la busi ness which has nothing for- its ob ject save the destruction of thej peo ple and Jowering the moral tone', of society can contribute anything to a town's prosperity. j ' j "If soul and happiness destroying propensity is prosperity, then Green, ville is indeed prosperous." j ' . . It need not be considered as boast ing to say Concord has a combina tion of two elements of upbuilding as congenial as twin sisters, and Jo these her progress is largely; due. No bar rooms makes more j willing workers and makes i invested! capital remunerative, while these j enter prises famish employment at wages that spread happiness in the homes of many who withont such emolov mentf would suerv abject povet. Keflexirely our market is benefitted and the wave widens as it goes, those have their conspicuous licensed dram shops who want them, but we don't want them. We have something better.
