Thomas Jefferson, continually ap pealed to as an exponent of private rights, believed in inherent natural rights, he said, as belonging to com munities or societies., but “not to pri vate individuals against the com munity for‘which they are a part. “The strongest, because it is the soundest argument against Govern ment regulation is not the doctrine of natural rights,” he said, “but the argument that the Government is un fit to discharge the duties which it,is proposed The present Bethel Church is, a handsome brick structure with seat ing capacity for several hundred and facilities for various Church depart ments. Its a magnificent material demonstration of the stability, suc cess and devotedness of its .substan tial membership. In his sermon Sunday morning Mr. Courtney found his text in First John, 1:9. He said in part. 1. My subject is sin. The word “sin” is a very little word as it ap pears on the page, spelled with only three letters, but it is a big subject. There is so much more to be said on this subject than can be said in one discourse or in a dozen discourses. It is not a popular subject at this thne, but it is an exceedingly im portant subject. It is sin that ef fects being of every one of us for time and eternity. We can not afford to ignore it. We must face it and deal with it.. We need to know something of its nature that we may avoid it. We also need to know how to get rid of it. * Nature and Effects of Sin. 1. Sin is destructive. It always destroys. Sin never created or built up anything. It destroys the most precious possessions men have. It begins by destroying man’s fellowship with God. Man does not live in sin and at the same time have fellowship with God. It destroys peace. Be cause of sin the heart of man be comes like the Uea that carmof rest. It also destroys hope and joy. The only way to have genuine joy Is to be saved from sin. One may have “fun” and live in sin, but to, have joy one must turn from sin. 2. Sin is also degrading. It drags men down. In this it is no respector of persons. Sometimes it goes into the most refined and cultured homes anjEUnds its victims. Sometimes it goes to the highest positions that men occupy and drags them out down to the lowest levels. It is not an un heard of thing for sin to drag men from the pulpit and ruin their lives. Yes, sin is degrading. 3. Then sin is deceitful. It comes with fair promises. If puts on an at tractive appearance. But. however fair its promises and however attrac tive its appearance it te the same dead ly thing. 4. Sin is enslaving. Jesus said. “Whosoever commits sin is the ser vant (or bondslave) of sin.” 111. S : n may be forgiven. “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." That Is the one bright thing that can be said about sin, it may be forgiven. There is a remedy for sin. Jesus is the Saviour from sin. EXCITEMENT HIGH OVER BURNING OF CHURCH Bloodhounds. Placed in Service, Go to House of Doc Grubbs, and Halt. Tholnasville, Aug. 13.—The excite ment over the burning of Embler’s Grove church, eight miles south of Thomasville on Friday morning, is not abating but possibly getting stronger and especially since the bloodhounds trailed from -the ashes of the church to Doc Grubb’s. Jt is stated that the hounds took the scent from a little piece of corn huek which was found near by and had been partially consumed by fire and from the spot went to the home of Grubbs and lay down panting near by. Mr. Grubb, it is stated by neigh bors, has been active in expressing his disapproval of some ministers who have preached at the church. The latest demonstration of his dis approval is said to have been w’hen he forbade Rev. Z- T. Bell, of Thomasville, preaching there again. A neighbor was asked if Mr. Grubb had been a large contributor to the church enterprise of the community, replied “no, he has never contributed anything, but for some reason he seems to £hink the lot'on which the church was built belongs to him.” — Thomasville Woman is Killed By Auto Truck.

GARY, CHAIRMAN OF STEEL CORPORATION, DEAD AT NEW YORK Death of Noted Steel Fig ure and Financier Oc curred at His Home at 4 a. m. Today, Report Said. PROMINENT IN FINANCIAL WORLD Was Active Head of Steel Corporation Many Years and as Such Gained In ternational Reputation. New York. Aug. 15.— (A*) —Elbert H. Gary, chairman of the Board of the United States Steel Corporation died at his home at 4 o’clock this morning. Reports of Mr. Gary’s death first began to circulate in the Wall Street district in the middle of the morning. Confirmation was not immediately available at the offices of the United States Steel Corporation, but when reporters went to Gary home at 1130 Fifth Avenue, an employee of the household made announcement tnat Mr. Gary had died at 4 o’clock. He said all further details would be given out in a statement at tho United States Steel Corporation later. It was stated that the cause ot Mr. Gary’s death was chronic myocorditis. He had been in ill health for about a month. About the offices of the Steel Corporation the exact time of the deaath was placed at 3:40 o’clock this a. m. Beyond that bare announcement it was said no details would be available until some time in the afternoon. On 25th of July Mr. Gary who at that time had been ill for about a week, was reported “on the mend,” and it was expected at that time that he would return to his office within a few days. One of Mr. Gary’s last public acts was on the 16th of June when by passing his hands over an electrically sensitized mechanism he set in opera tion the gigantic electrified Home stead plant near Pittsburgh. To perform this operation he sat in his office at 71 Broadway and the feat involved building up a large quantity of energy released from hi* hand into great enough electrica' strength to control the operation of the steel plant. y The Mr. Gary died is uptown on Fifth Avenue from the famous Gary mansion at 656 Fifth Avenue, said to be one of the finest residences in New York, which h now in process of demolition. The Gary mansion contained a marble staircase valued at $150,000. Be cause the contractor tearing down the mansion estimated that it won d cost the full value of the great stair case to remove it. however, it was offered for sale for $1 to anyone who would take it away. Every since Mr. Gary passed his SOth anniversary, rumors of his im pending resignation as chairman of the United States Steel Corporation have been recurrent- Time after time rumors which appeared to be based on authentic information have been circulated, only to be proven base less. As head of the great United States -Steel Corporation, Elbert H. Gary constantly was confronted with two jiroblems of the most vital importance to the two directly opposite groups of people concerned in them. One was the successful direction of the huge business organization with assets of nearly $2,000,000,000 and involving the investments of thousands of per sons ; the other, the human considera tion of the more than 300,000 employes of the steel corporation and its sub sidiary companies. That he was emi nently successful in dealing with both problems from the standpoint of em ployer and employe was proved by the leading men of the industrial world tributes that were paid to him by the who made up the steel corporation, and those who worked in the ranks of its varies companies. One of the most pleasing tributes ever paid to Mr. Gary was at the annual meeting of the American Iron and steel Institute at New York in October, 1019. The steel strike had been In progress several weeks and the steel men, nearly 1.600 of them, had gathered to hear what Mr. Gary had to say. His entrance into the gathering was the signal for a re markable demonstration. These staid, solid business men, catching sight of the leader of their industry, broke into a spontaneous salvo bf cheers, which were continued several minutes. Figuring five persons to the average faimly it was estimated that nearly 2,000,000 persons were dependent up on the United States Steel Corpora tion wer said to number close to 300,- 000 before the 12 hour day was abol ished. _ Elbert Henry Gary was born on his father’s farm near Wheaton, 111., and was descended from old New Eng land stock on one side, his father, Erastus Gary, having sprung from the hardy Puritans who settled Massa chusetts. His mother, Abiah Vallette Gary, was a descendant of one of the officers in the army of LaFayette and fought with him for the freedom of the American colonies. He was educated in the public schools, Wheaton Col lege and the University of Chicago. WUI Be Buried in Illinois. Chicago, Aug. 15. GP) —The body of Judge E. H. Gary will be brought to Chicago tomorrow for burial near his old home in Wheaton, 111. His daughters, Mrs. Robert W. Campbell, wife of the chairman of the board of trustees of the Northwestern Univer sity, and Mrs. Gertrude Sutcliffe, of Chicago, are at the Campbell home in Evanston, seat of the Northwestern University.

EU3EBT H. GARY . STUDY OF TAX SYSTEM , .OF NORTH CAROLINA This Is One of the Outstanding Needs of the State. The Tribune Bureau, Sir Walter Hotel. Raleigh, Aug. 15.—A study of the tax system of North Carolina as f part of any program for the develop ment of industries, is the outstanding need of the state, according to ex pressions from a majority of the sec retaries of chambers of commerce in the state in answer to a request for suggestions from Wade H. Phillips, director of the department of conser vation and development. These sug gestions were sought by Mr. Phillipß to assist in the survey of natural re sources and industries now being un dertaken by the department. Os the dozen or more secretaries expressing their views with regard to the survey, seven points to a study of taxes aud the tax system as being the most pressing problem in indus trial development. While most of the others mentioned this feature, they place some other questions ahead of the tax question as seeming to be more necessary at this time. All of the secretaries, however, are unanimous in endorsing the move for a survey of natural resources and in dustries, and pledge their support to the undertaking. F. Roger Miller, secretary of the Asheville Chamber of Commerce, sug gests study of taxation be the first investigation undertaken and that accurate comparisons be made with the taxing systems irr other states. ✓ The need for crystallization and in terpretation gathered through a sur vey fiTemphasized by Chas. M. Kitch um, formerly with the Greensboro Chamber of Commerce. He also sug gests the need for internal expansion as an important feature of the devel opment program. Willard T. Kyzer, Salisbury, also places the survey of the tax situa tion at the head of the list of the most important features of the department al survey program. Several other features are suggest ed by H. B. Skinner of Burlington, who mentions resources, taxation, la bor, climate, health, education, trans portation and insurance as being im portant. HICKORY CAVALRY OFFICER MISSING; ACCOUNTS SHORT Bondsmen for Captain Claude M. Sides Expected to Institute Search. —Wife Ignorant of Husband's Whereabouts. Hickory, Aug. 13. —Speculation as to the whereabouts of Claude M. Sides, former captain of the Hickory troop of the North Carolina national guard, took a new interest toAy as the troopers left for Fort Oglethorpe, under the command of First Lieuten ant Adron S. Huffman, who was of ficially ordered by Adjutant General Van Metts to take charge of the com pany after Captain Sides’ resignation diad been received. Sides, wjio was also the owner of "one of the> largest cases in the city, left Hickory on July 4, last, to at tend the horseshow in Statesville. His business associates and members of the cavalry company have not seen him since. Mrs. Sides,. who is staying here, said this morning that she did not know where Mr. Sides is now and that she had not heard from him since he left. So far as is known now. no papers for his arrest have been issued and the only persons who are hunting him ar his family and credi tors. The search is private. Last July 9, after some inquiry as to his whereabouts had been conduct ed, a petition for a receivership was filed before Judge M. S. Shenck and he appointed Judge M. H. Yount as receiver. It developed that Sides left Hickory owing about SB,OOO, but $5,000 of that amount is owed to his mother. Judge Yount said the best offer they had gotten so far woulirive the creditors about twenty cents on the dollar. It was learned from officials of the cavalry troop this morning that na tional guard inspectors had checked the former captain short about SBOO worth of equipment and its is believed that the bonding company may insti tute a search for him. Some time after his disappearance Sides sent in his resignation to Gen eral Van Metts, and Lieutenant Huff man received word his month that it had been accepted and ha was to take charge of the troop.
