Wingate. March 18. The revival
meeting at the Baptist church is still
in progress. Rev. John A. Wray is
doing come fine preaching. Large
crowds are attending, and much in
terest is being manifested. The rain
yesterday demoralised things a little,
but the crowds were good in spite of
the rain. Several professions were
made last night and tl.e interest is
such that many are expected today.
The meeting is very quiet There
has been no real outburst, but the
spirit of the meeting has been real
fine. We think that neonle too often
silo up a meeting by the noise the
preacher and people make. They lose
sight of the great fact in religion,
that Is, that it is the doing and not
the professions that counts. Too
many people have "big nieetin'" re
ligion. They can talk and pray, do
almost anything during the meeting,
but when something is to be done
that takes some effort they are not
there. Some people do not attend
church from one meeting to another.
We trust that this meeting at Mead
ow Branch may produce permanent
results. We believe that it will. We
are not sure as to how long it will
continue, but rather think that we
will close tomorrow evening.
Bruce and William Snyder have
been home for a few dayss visit
! They each have a job at Badin.
Work Is being pushed on Rev. E.
C. Snyder's residence. WKen com
pleted, it will be one of the prettiest
residences in our little town.
Dr. Greene and wife of Monroe
have been doing some very fine sing-
I ing In the meeting now in progress

I People are beginning to plow for
i their spring crops. More oats have
been sowed than we have ever seen
' at this time of the year. Many have
sowed large fields of them.
Mr. W. P. Griffin has purchased
the M. S. Humphrey place in front
of the school building. We are not
sure as to what Mr. Humphrey Is go
ing to do. He has a fine farm in
Robeson county. Possibly he Is go
ing to move back to it.
Mrs. Zeb. Secrest of Bakers visited
relatives and friends in this section
last week and attended the meeting.
Mr. Fred Helms and Tamily of Mon
roe visited Mr. K. C. Bivens Saturday
and Sunday.
Mr. M. W. Griffin has been unwell
for the past few days. He has not
been able to attend service at the
church but one day. He is such a
faithful hand we miss him when he
Is not there.
Mr. Rul'us Williams has a new car.
Of course it is a Ford. Nearly all of
us have Fords.
Mr. Vann Griffin is still Improving,
we are glad to note.
Mrs. I. S. Funderburk. who has
been very sick for the past six or
seven weeks, is considered out of dan
ger now unless some complication
sets in that is not evident at this time.
There will be services at Austin's
Grove Saturday before the fifth Sun
day and the fifth Sunday afternoon.
The congregation will please take no
tice. We want to have service be
cause the winter has been so bad we
could not fill all of our appointments.
Rev. M. D. L. Preslar and Rev. R.
M. Haigler held a short meeting at.
Union church last week. It was an
interesting one indeed, and had it not j
been for some epidemic in that sec-'
tion it would have resulted In many!
additions to the church. Much inter-i
est was manifested as it was and one j
was added by baptism, possibly some
by letter and restoration. i

T the end of a hard day, Just sit
Americans From (iermany.
Due to a better system of food dis
tribution, and more rigid control of
food supplies by means of ration
cards, the last winter in Germany
was not so severe on the poor people
as was the previous winter, accord- j
ing to Miss Elizabeth McCann, an I
American, who, with her three sis- j
ters, has arrived in America on a !
Danish steamship. They left Ger-I
many last December, she said, after j
residing in that country for 14 years, t
'The people are hoping for peace
to come soon," Miss McCann said. "I
do not beleive there will be an upris
ing of any consequence as long as the
war lasts, for the Germans apparent
ly have every conflderfce they will
win. We made our home in Ham
burg and we were practically intern
ed from the day that America enter
ed the war. . '
"The German people know Amer
ica has joined the other nations agin
st them, but they seem to believe
what they have been told that
enough American soldiers to help the
allies to any extent will not be able
to cross the Atlantic." y
Two other Americans on the ship
who left Germany the same month
were Mr. and Mrs. Fred Rente of De
troit. Mr. Rente, who was represen
tative at Schoneberg, a town near
Madgeburg, for an American man
ufacturing company, said that food
was scarce and costly rationed, but
that there was plenty for those who
had the money to pay for it
down to a cud of Luzianne
Coffee. See how you pick up with
every savory sip, Luzianne is far, far
different from any other coffee. It's
Cot something that all the others seem
to lack. And it's packed in dust-proof,
moisture-proof cans that bring
Luzianne to your kitchen just the same
as when it left the roaster. Buy a can
and try it for yourself. An iron-dad.
air-tight guarantee says that if you are
not entirely satisfied with Luzianne,
your grocer will give you back your
money. And he wilL ,

Weak Hut Sound.
(From Charity and Children.)
The Charlotte Observer, In its
haste, said that Captln David Fallon
occupied the Baptist church at Thom
asvllle, and the editor of this paper
did not like it and cautioned the Bap
tists against the indiscriminate use
of their churches. Captain Fallon
did not speak in the Baptist church
of Thomasvllle and never will while
his theme Is war, for we have a pas
tor who is not a war lord, but a sane,
safe and sensible minister of the gos
pel. The address refered to was de
livered in the Methodist church of
High Point After administering a
gentle rebuke the Observer neutra
lizes all it said before in these words:
"At the same time, it is to be ad
mitted that profanity in the church
more than any other place, Is calcu
lated to grate on the nerves." That
is weak but sound.
