THE DAVIE RECORD. C FRANK STROUD - - Editor. OFFICE Second Story Angel Building, Main St. Entered atthePostoffice inMocks ville, N. C, as Second-class Mail matter. March 3. 1903. TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION: One Year, in Advance 50c Six Months, in Advance 25c WEDNESDAY JULY 19. 1911 Davie county will not get the State h'ghway, but if the people are de termined about the matter, she can get some good roads. The town of Mocksville is making some improvements, which we are all proud of. Some nice concrete side walks are being built, which will add much to the looks of the town. With two printing offices in the town, it doesn't seem necessary for the business men to send out of the county to have their printing done, but many of them do so. Suppose all the people in the town should go out of the county to buy their sup plies? Every farmer in Davie county si ould attend the Farmers' Union picnic at Center on Friday, July 28th. Prominent speakers will be present to address the people, and a big din ner will be served on the grounds. If nothing prevents, the editor will be present with a large receipt book ana invites an tnose wno are going i to be present to bring a half dollar along for him. A Building and Loan Association in badly needed in Mocksville. Quite a number of people here carry stock in other associations, because they know it is a good thing. There is nothing better for the poor man, or the rich man, so far as that is con cerned, than building and loan stock. With an association here, it would oily be a short time until practically all of our people would own their own homes. The people of the town should get together and organize an Association. It means much for the town. su ome C Remember that great Sale we had last fall thejbig values we gave, and how the people crowded our store and clamored to be waited on? The huge success of that sale gjss to prove that the people have faith in us and in our advertisementsknow that we give just what we advertise, and advertise nothing but the truth. When we have a sale wo give bargains bargains which are real bargains bargains worth your time and fully worth your money. 4 Now SUMMER TIME is here, and SUMMER TIME IS CLEAN-UP TIME.

ALL SPRING AND SUMMER GOODS, CLOTHING, SHOES, HATS AND FURNISHINGS, MUST GO Not One Cent Charged. Don't Ask for Credit. Bring the Cash. REMEMBER WHAT A FLETCHER BROS. SALE MEANS TO YOU.

Some Evils of Barter For The Church. 1st. It limits God's power to fulfill his promises to his people, because it puts his cause purely in a business basis. It leaves out faith, without which often Jesus him self "could do no mighty works." It leaves no place for progressive revelation of God's will or leadership. 2nd. It prevents the spiritual develop ment of any church pr cnnstianwno in dulges in them, because it robs the giver of the means of growth in grace that re sults from voluntary giving. 3rd. It lowers the moral standard of any church that permits them by drag ging the cause of God in the dust of the world. God's plans and purposes for car rying on the work of his kingdom on earth is minimised while those of the world are substituted and preferred, regardless of the fact that God hath said, "The people shall be a peculiar people," "a light unto the world," "a city that is sat upon a hill." 4th. It is a compromise with the world God's cause on the one hand, the ways of the world in the other; an effort to hold on to God with one hand and to the world w i .h the other, which is an abomination unto God. He will not have a divided heart, but says, "I would have you cold or hot." In fact, his plan as revealed from Genesis to revelation, is that his people are to be seperate and distinct from the world. 5th. It proses the Lord as a beggar. begging for that that is his own. "Are not the earth on a thousand hills his.' The earth is the Lord's and the fullness there of." "Freely ye have received, freely give. "God loveth a cheerful giver," says Paul and which truth we can not fail to see in every instance from Abraham to the pres ent time. "Provide things honest in the sight of the Lord." As Jesus sat over a gainst the treasury watching the worship pers as they made their offering for tem ple expenses, he said the widow who sim ply gave her mite had given more than they all. The lesson in the parable of the leaves and fishes is that the littles in God's hands is sufficient. He said, "bring them to me" and like as he break and multiplied till all the multitude was fed and each disciple ook up a basket full of the frag ments. So, one consecrated gift, in his hands, will be blessed and multiplied till his cause shall be satisfied and the giver have an abundant added unto himself. Simply give in faith, leaving the re wits with god. The breaking and multiplying is to be done in his hands and not in ours. The fifty-cents, cost of the cake, is more precious in God's sight, than the fifty-cents gained by the sale in the breaking in our hands. 6th. Every instance in the old Testa ment where money was collected for church ' expenses, it was done by free will oner ings never, no never by barter, not even ! by assessment on apportionment. They ' simply gave of a willing heart or "as many . as whose hearts the Lord made willing." j Will not every one who wants to honor Of The Town ront Oxfords and Shoes!
