C., Aug. 10.—The school for Church Workers at Mount Pleasant continues to ,-njoy the les . sons given them from day to day. Dr. C. I*. Miles, of Philadelphia, told the school of the literature which the Lutheran Church is using in her Sun day Schools. He spoke at length on lessons material. uSnday chool papers, j magazines and music, saying that the ] purpose of the literature of the [Church was" to reveal the message of God to the church and thus secure thy proper response. The Rev. J. K. Linn, a returned missionary from Japan,, spoke briefly on the numerical growth of the Christian Church in Japan, which now numbers a quarter of a , million souls, and the spiritual inftu- 1 ence of this body of Christians on the life of Japan. , , The Rev. J. L. Y'ost, of Gastonia, in presenting to his class the subject 1 of advertising, gave the principles of success in this field. Advertising must 1 attract attention, he repeated, -must ■ tell the story quickly and must arouse 1 attention. The means of advertising are the press, bulletins, announce- 1 metit in hotels and mailing letters and * post cards. Mr. Yost says that relig ion is a matter .of salesmanship ifnd that the average Sunday School class is a poor advertisement of the gospel of Jesus Christ. The Rev. H. Offerman, of Mt. Airy Seminary, Philadelphia, continues his aeries of fine lectures on the book of Philippians. Tuesday he sjioke about * the opponents of St. Paul who follow- ' ed in his steps and sought to destroy his work. Paul never names these se- ' ilueers but in all of h : s works he gives 1 expression to the pain and anguish 1 which they caused him. i. e.. "O Gala- * tians. who has bewitiilied you." Never theless Paul constantly rejoices that 1 Christ is being preached and hence J he looks forward with eager expects - * tion and hope to the coming of Christ. I The aim of Paul was to magnify 5 Christ in his body. Miss Eva Stils. of Pittsburgh, lias 1 charge of the teachers for primary . grades and gives some practical meth ods of teaching. These are read and study the lessons material carefully, j tyaeh without a book, know geography of the country, teach a positive truth. Miss Ruth Blaekwelder. formerly of Concord, but now of Philadelphia, in speaking to the youug people about the work of the Luther League gave the , steps to lie taken in organizing a League, these being to interest the ( pastor, consult with the State officers and pray for success. There are dif ferent kind* of members of the League, the active, associate and co-, operating. Miss Blaekwelder says the; , purpose wf the League is to bring the young people ( laser to God and spread , the kingdom. She also plead with the young people to engage in daily devo tions urging them to get on the : r knees daily else the winds of the 1 world may blow them away. On Tuesday nignt a missionary pro grain will be conducted by Rev. and Mrs. Victor McCauley, of Guntur. In dia. They have spent 25 years in that country and have wide knowledge * and experience of the Indian and of tlfe Indian Church.

Cranford, of Stanly county, who J has killed all the men and whipped j and kicked and done everything elm* | bad, and we haven’t heard the good I part. I was raised in Stanly county, I and I know when the chain gang started. I have known X. C. Cran ford for 20 years, and I have lived close to the camp, and 1 happened to know some of the men on the roads, and they were the scraping* of the earth. “Mr. Cranford was a good Chris tian man. I am glad to say. and he didn’t have anything about him but good guards and good men, and they tried the hard stuff on him and he did his duty, and they tried to put him in the pen, but God was not going to let a man of his type and a good Christian go that way.

HIGH BOOK PRICES IN' STATE SCHOOLS Apparently Children Most Pay the Dealers 5 Per Cent More Than In Tennessee. Raleigh News and Observer. Although school children in the North Carolina sp.iools pay 20 per cent, in book fromlnission as compared to 15 )ier Cent, in Tennessee, the: chances of the State maintaining a' charge of discrimination against the book publishers seemed remote fol lowing a hearing before State legal, and educational officials yesterday af ternoon. No decision as to the State's final determination has been reached, it was stated, but at the hearing book publishers succeeded in showing that in no State having the same system of distribution of the books do the publishers sell for less than in North Carolina. The decision of State officials now investigating the matter will be re ported, to the State board of educa tion, Superintendent of Public In struction A. *T. Allen stated yester day. .
