Pastor Away.
Rev. W. Marnhall Cralgr, pastor ct
the First Baptist Church, will be at
Wilmington this week to conduct a
series of services at Winter Park
Baptist Church, where he was form
erly pastor. Rev. II. W. Baucom of
Mortead City will conduct Pastor
Craig's services here Sunday.
God's Own Business.
People have no right to pray for
the war to cease, declared Rev.
George H. Jamie, until recently a
chaplain in the Pfritmh Indian army,
in a sermon at Atkinson Memorial
Presbyterian Church Sunday. The
young minister, whose home i near
Edinburgh, Scotland, said the con
flict was planned by the Creator, that
it is the result of sin, and that all
mortals can do is to strive their ut
most to carry out the will of God in
all things, to the end that a better
'world may come out f the chaos and
bloodshed. Mr. Jamie preached twice
dirring the day. lie was henrd by
fair congregations.
We Have Them With Us.
Dr. C, Banks McNairy in a day or
two will issue an appeal to the local
public to give generously to the
State's orphans Thanksgiving Day,
Dr. McNairy is a member of the
State committee. At the Caswell
Training School, of which he is sup
erintendent, there are 90-odd or
phans, he states. At the Baptists'
Kennedy Memorial Home, Falling
Creek, there are scores more. Evert
wage-earner in North Carolina is be-
j lug asked to give one day's earnings.
i The County education authorities
. , . . . ,
raonuay ennorseu a pian suggested
by Dr. McNairy, to hold exercises in
the Lenoir County schools the Fri
day before Thanksgiving.
Mr. Hall Here Sunday.
Mr. P. B. Hall, pastor of the New
Bern Christian Church, occupied
the pulpit of the Gordon Street
Christian Church at both services
Sunday. Mr. Hall was formerly pas
tor of the local church and his old
friends gave him a cordial reception
Sunday. He preached a most inter
esting and forceful sermon, impress
ing upon his hearers the importance
of anawering the calls of God that
came to them. He said that the most
essential thing for the Sunday School
teacher, the church officer or other
Christian worker was to become fill
ed with the spirit of service. The
ability to do was largely wasted un
less the spirit was right, said he.
Selectman Loses Foot.
J. Thomas Moore, a member of
the National Army, shot himself in
the foot while hunting near Snow
uiu tate aturiay. Another man
was with him. Moore's companion
heard the report of the soldier's gun
and looked around to see the victim
uprawled on his hands and knees.
Moore was brought to Parrott Me
morial Hospital here. It was stat
ed Monday morning that tha foot
would have to be amputated The
selectman is prominently connectrd
in Greene County. His relatives and
friends assert that the shooting was
purely accidental, Moore, who was
home on a Bhort furlough, seemed to
be delighted with being in the ser
vice. Can't Teach Him New Tricks.
Hrof. Joseph Kinsey, superintend
ent of the County's schools, Monday
morning found fault with the-' moon
light school as an educational insti
tution. He expressed the opinion
that the "old fools" who have grown
hoary in ignorance should be allow
ed to continue in that state while
the forces of education should bend
i v t
every effort toward preventing an
other crop of illiterates from the
generation "coming on." There is
ample work among the youngsters,
he declared. An agent who called
oa the superintendent for assistance
in disposing of books at 1 a volume
to aid in wiping out commercialized
vice got scant encouragement. Sup
erintendents of schools in Solomon's
day and before that did not know
what to do with the social evil, he' de
clared, and it was too late in the day
for hi mto get tangled up with the
question.
