IIS il OCCUPY ' POINTS IN SMYRNA GREAT INTEREST SERIES The annual revival services at the First Methodist church were begun yesterday morning with a sermon by the pastor, Rev. C. S. Kirkpatrick before a congregation that filled the auditorium and most of the Sunday ehool room. With from the text, "No man Careth for My South," the pastor drew a palallel between church and non-church members and emphasized the importance of those in the church bowing that they were for the spir itual welfare of others. The choir space has been enlarged so that more than a hundred persons may. take part in the singing, which will he under the direction of Mr. Julian l Moorman, who arrived today roni Morganton, where he has con ducted the singing in a revival there. Mr. Moorman will organize his choir at once and the music will be a feature f the revival, which will run two weeks. :vir. Kiikpatvtck will do the preaching. Only one service will be held a lay for the present, although a spe- ial sermons for boys and girls will " delivered Friday and Saturday af ternoons at J):"0 o' clock. Mr. Kirkpat- ick announced that he would hold midday meetings at the several manu facturing plants and beginning with next week, would increase the number of Fcrvk-es in the church. The sched ule will be announced later. The man on the outside wants to tnow tne (Uttcrence netween otners on the outside and those on the inside f the church, Mr. Kirkpatrick said. Are church members interested in the souls of other people? Mr. Kirkpatrick said church mem ers could be divided into three class-' t those who attend revivals and,1 ike a camel, store up enough religion o last them a year; those who attend hurch regularly until the revival sea n opens and then fail to take part in he revival, and those who do their be3t verv day in the year, who can be ounted on all the time. This last class was the pillar of the church. Mr. Kirk- atruk said he hoped that he would have the hearty eooperaton of his mem- ters at this time. After the sermon scores of persons' .vent forward and pledged their pray- cjs and en oris to aui ine goou win and again last night there were other willing workers in evidence. There were live conversions at the night service. The town has been organized into wards. There will be ward prayer ser vicer? in the church before the regular wrvice each evening and later in the week cottage prayer meetings will be ,cld. By the .Associated Press. 'iWoahinirtnn.

A score of matters of importance to the church were slated for action this week.

In striking contrast to the idleness oi the last five months the anthracite coal fields today were scenes of feverish activity when most of the 155,000 mine workers who responded to the suspension order of their unoins on April i returned to work. ?dany of them did not wait for the signing of the formal agreement whba was entei-ed into Saturday, but were on hand when the whistles blew at o'clock this morning. John L. Lewis, president of the united mine workers, declared taht at least 98 per cent were satis tieti with the new scale and would report for work today and that the others' would resume work as soon a? th j mines were putj in condition. Members of Corinth Reformed Sun day school used their new plant for the first time yesterday morning- and were congratulated not only , by the officers of this school, but by leaders in the First Baptist and Presbyterian schools, Supt. WLR. Weaver and Rev. Walter W. Rowe,-pastor of the church, welcomed several visitors who helped to bring the attendance up to 302, just two more than the superintendent nad set as the high mark. . A song, "Jesus Bids Us Shine," by Mrs. H. C. Menzies' primary children was the first number on the program and then followed interesting talks by Mr. Thos. P. Pruitt, superintendent of the First Baptist Sunday school; Mr. Harry. W.Link, who. returned 'iter an absence,; of 26 years, and Dr. E. M. Craig; pastor of tfhe Presby terian church. The speakers were limited to five .minutes each. . Mr.- Pruitt, after congratulating the Sundav ; school on its splendid new plant, gave a short history : of the Sunday school. It was first organised by Robert Rake in, England in 1780. He taught reading, writing and arithmetic on Sunday morning. A little later William Fox employed (earners to srive Bible instruction seven days a week. Friends brought these two men together with thy i esult that they got together on an idea which has resulted in our modern Sunday schools. Mr. Link said that the whole luuire of the church rests m the unaa It must teach the true word ot Jesus Christ, have ample facilities and its members must engage in personal work if it would be successful. Mr. Link told of the. good the churches in Spartanburg were doing and pledg- ipd himseit to assist nere j way in his power. . Dr. Craig, after congratulating the Sunday school, called on the Tuembers to make each corner bright, as urged by the song the little children had iust sung. He brought greetings from the officers and members of the Pres byterian Sunday school. - Mr. Rowe said the Reformed church was '53 vears old and that Mrs. A. C. Link, mother of Mr. Harry Link, was the only liv.ig charter mem ber of the church . Ine building committee. Messrs. L. F. Abernethy, C. H. Geitner and J. C. Frve was publicly thanked for then good' work and Mr. C C Bost, who gave the first $100 towards the im provement, likewise was thanked MR. DAUGHERTY'S RETREAT New York Globe. . 4 , It was inevitable that Mr. Daugh erty should be compelled to retreat from his line he sought to follow, it u nnmTvaiiorl to resDect the consti tutional rights and the personal lib erty of the strikers, little mdeed will be 'left to his injunction. That need not be considered an evil. Crimes against persons and against property oug'it to be and will be prosecuted in accordance with; the criminal ' code. Railroads which require evtraordinary protection may, upon their own be half as some have already done, re quest the issuance of injunctions. But there is an enormous barrier between such a court order, which seeks to protect property from peril, and the .rtntrived bv the attorney- general which virtually was aimed at compulsory worK. , WHY HE FAILED had failed they said: "He was doomed to fail. His life had been, in fact, but a series of tailures. The firct chapter of this series be gan in an insurance office, where he obtained his first job, that of office boy. He had only just begun on this job when his boss looked up from, an im portant letter one morning and said irritably, 'Don't whistle at your work, hoy.' 'I ain't workin,' sir!' he answer ed."

Chfcag-p ""during the day was expressed in niany quar ters in Hickory. Yesterday the morn ing papers carried a news article from Spencer saying that the strikers there were confident of a settlement and this coincided with the belief ex pressed here Friday by men who were known to be well informed. It was said that Mr. J. M. Ellis, one of the six general chairmen of the South ern shop crafts, stopped over .here between trains en route to Chicago. While there has been nothing given out about the matter, it is believed here that a settlement of the strike on the Southern will automatically settle the walkout on the Carolina and Northwestern. Unless some new conditions arise at Chicago where the union's policy committee is meeting today, a decision to make separate or district settlements will result in the prompt return to their jobs of old men.. 1 I Rome, Sept. 11.

By an overwhelming vote the house, committee, this, in the opinion of lead however, preferred to the judiciary ers, finally disposing of the question.
