General Manager Nichols has recommen . ded to President Barber that the new shops of the Carolina & North-Western Railroad be loca ted at Hickory. Mr. Nichols' . recommendation will be no doubt approved. In this action, Mr. . Nichols was guided solely by bus iness reasons. He found that the advantages of Hickory as a loca tion were" geographically and commercially of more advantage than any other location sugges ted, and the big wood-working shops there will prove of invalu able aid in the rapid construction of the shops Mr, Nichols told The GteanM* that the Hickon shops will be completed and ready for business next spring. To do that will require energetic work, but all plans to that end have been made. The acquisi tion of these shops will be a big boast for Hickory and congratu , lacions for tnat town are in or der. (This was news which Hickory was keeping quiet until President Barber could be heard from, but he will doubtless approve Capt. , Nichols' recommendation. —Dem ocrat] Baby Burned to Death Correspondence of the Democrat. i Gunpowder, Nov. 9, —The 11- . year old child of Avery Yount . was burned to death Mdnday 1 afternoon in his nice new house.

A Reformation Sermon A notable event at the Lenoir College campus church Sunday afternoon was the Reformation A notable event at the Lenoir College campus church Sunday afternoon was the Reformation sermon by Rev. Dr. J. Fry, of the Lutheran Seminary in Phila delphia, a leader of American Lutheranism. The beautiful new church was filled. Dr. Fry took his text from Phil. 1:6: "I am set for the defence of the Gospel." He ap plied these words of Paul in striking analogy to bo h Luther and the great church which Lu ther founded and which now numbers 76,000,000 members. One striking paragraph of Dr. Fry's was this: "Luther was the greatest liberator since Jesus Christ. He delivered the word of God from the imprisonment of a dead language." Dr. Fry was the guest of Prof, and Mrs. little while here. to feel strong, have good ap petite and digestion, s'.eep sound ly and enjoy life, use Burdock Blood Bitters, the great system tonic and builder, Death of Mrs. Seagle Mrs. N.

Aotbpg others, John 14 and Psalm#! were her fa vor» r e portions m the Bible, ind to the end of her days her joy in God's word never abated. Mrs. Seagle joined the church - hen she was 18 years old, hav ing accented Christ as her Sav iour in childhood. She had a sweet christian faith** womanly trust in God, which was as strong in its hold on the divine promises, as her disposition was tender and.frue. Amid the trials that marked her earthly career, when sickness and death invaded her home her inward vision looked at once£and - stead f tly toward God. She took her husband and her children to God n prayer and trusted Him and rfis covenant, for their salvation, their guidance, their preserva tion from every earthly and spir itual danger. . '*2 She was a loyal, faithful wife, and a devoted self-sacrificing mother, filling her Mation per fectly, with a quiet, eonsecration •K) pleasant jto behol4^She was U. M. in 1806. Seven children came to bless their home. Four of them God took to himself in childhood, and to them she has been reunited, leaving her husband and two grandchildren to mourn her de parture, and await the glad day of tie Lord. How sweet to close a book of life with its pages all written in faith and love and hope inspired by christian truth. She died on Nov. 8 at midnight, and her bodv waits the resurrection while her soul is at rest, enjoy ing the presence of Christ to be reunited with the b)dy with his saints in the glad millenium accor l;ng to the promise of her Lord.
