(Rpeeigl to The Dn-Iy Tribune)
Kannapolis. Oct a).— The parable
of the slothful servant who hid his
nurvter * talent in the earth was the 1
subject of a sermon delivered last
eveuin* by Ur, J. W. Whitley at the
First Baptist Church.
The sermon was one or a seriea
whieli the Rev. Mr. Whitley is de
livering at revival meetings in prog
ress this week.
The audience, toe largest gathering
of persons since the inauguration of
the services last Sunday eyeping. was !
highly pleased with the preliminary I
song service conducted by Mr. W. F.
Betts, of Raleigh. The number ren
dered by the leader, entitled "The in
ner Circle." proved a sterling feature.
The Rev. Mr.'Whitley took his text
from the 25th chapter, the 2oth verse
of St. Matthew: "And I was afraid
and weut and bid thy talent in the
earth.”
The speaker gave a definition of
talent as being the capacity to do
something for man's gondyand God's
glory. He brought out that God gave
the talents and that He has a right
to demaud that you use them.
Talent hiding is a common sin, said
Dr. Whitley, who added everyone has
a talent to love God. We love the
world, its riches, its honors, its pleas
m-csA and we love one another and
onSeivos but we must use the capac
ity to love God and love Him suprente-
The great minister outlined several
ways in which we can use the God
given talent: Provide for the family; ■
give to tlu/Lord weekly : pray ; minis
ter to the sick : give a welcome to the
city's newcomers j seek the absent one;
invite people to your church: come to
church yourself; gather and impart
information; and win lost souls.
Scores responded to the revivalist's
call ut tiip close of the sermon.

Sucking the thumb when an infant
makes for a receding chin in the
adult. This is t'lie opinion of Dr. W.
Stanley Wilkinson, dental expert of
Melbourne. Australia. A protruding
jaw and a proiirfnent chin, lie says, do
not mean that the man possessing
them has n strong character or great
"courage, but simply, that his mother
made him keep bis thumb out of bis
mouth w'uen lie was n buby. |

cotton to fix prices on spots wnile
the low price and steadiness of the

Danville, Va.. Oct. 27.—Reports
from Franklin County tell of the
settlement of the dispute which re
cently developed in the Rocky Mount
Methodist Church which resulted in
an alleged point blank refusal on the
part of the congregation to accept
I the appointment of a minister to
. that charge. The church is under
|stood_ to have vigorously requested
] the reappoutment of the incumbent
] and on failing to have assumed an
(attitude which for the good of the
■ church resulted in the presiding elder!
cf the Danville district hastening to j
see Bishop Collins Denr.y who auth- 1
orized an exchange.
The Rocky Mount congregation 1
was extremely desirous of securing 1
the reappointment of Rev. Starke 1
Jett and adopted strong resolutions
to that effect. Bishop Denny ap-
IMiinted Rev. C. E- Blankenship who
has been conference secretary of edu
cation. The eongrcgali&n. however,
insisted on a change and the bishop
now has ap]>oiuted Rev. W. (}. Bates
