PROMINENT MEN ATTEND SERIVCES Church Filled at the Two Services to Hear Visit ing Speakers.—Church Handsome and Modern. Concord’* newest church building, erected b.v the congregation of Trin . ity Unformed Church, wns formally dedicated yesterday with services that attracted many prominent members of the church from various parts of the state. Also, members of other tdtnrches in t’oncord and Cabarrus county at* , tended the services and rejoiced with the builders on the happy occasion. The dedicatory service was held at 11 a. m. with a fellowship service at 3p. m. The church wns filled at both services. The day's program began at 10 a. , m. when a service of praise and prayer wns held,' this being followed by -ud , dresses by Rev. W. H. McNairy and Rev. H. A. M. Hols'.touscr, former t pastor* of the church. Immediately offer these adrcsse*’there was a ser vice of praise by the chi'dren of the church. I In his talk Mr. McNairy warned 1 1 against using the handsome church j ( and its equipment for anything ex-! i ccpt service to (lod. "In the mod-! 1 cm days," he said, "the tendency too j < often is away from the church, f'hil-! dren are taught to go to Sunday school’ I but arc not taught to stay for church. • i Phople say they don't need to go toil church for t’.iey can get a sermon over-t the radio. Nothing takes the place j , of the church and the spirit of wor-! | ship that has .made the church l‘.ic 1 1 steering wheel of religion. Make j i your Sunday school a pa rt pf your i I church." Mr v Molnhouarr said it gave him j I ns a former pastor i < to the congregation 1 < Member*,! u Rteir new home. "Be-j. member,] he said, "for what purpoor' lh# ehujbh was built. , spnnhpmil ■ftgJjßfTlii igglHias others' in the rt’tj isi ■ that 5e reason you built it?

No. Toil built it so you 11 could better wors'.iip God nnd could! | better train your children to worship j t God. Keep always before you that 1 1 thought." | After the reading of the dedication | service by the |iaslor. Rev. W. C. I.y- i erly. the sermon was delivered by Rev. | H. A. Freporuian. of Greensboro, on j the subject, “The Church of the Liv ing God," and from the text, “Tie i Church of the Living God. the pillar and ground of the truth,” found in First Timothy the 15th verse of the ] third chapter. * "In certain quarters,” said Mr. I'es- , pennan, “we hear men speaking in , glowing terms of Christ, and f.icn | with the last half of the same breath ' denouncing the church. There are those who toil us that it does not matter whether people have been bap- , fixed, taken communion or belonged to the church—that on the whole It is , better for them not to have done any ■ of these ehutchly things.” “This, however, Is not the attitude of Christ. He did not deride the church. The church in His day may : not have been so sincere, so efficient in human activity, nor so well stocked with simple, everyday righteousness as is the average church of our own time; yet it was his custom to enter the synagogue on the Sabbath. He observed the feasts of the nation's church. He utilised the opportunities it offered for moral effort. And this same Jesus, near the close of lii* life, sent his apostles ‘to disciple all na tions and to baptise them in the name of the Father, anil of the Ron. and of the Holy Ghent.’ The only place where this command is being taken seriously is in the church of Christ. This same Jesus instituted the Lord's Supper and said. This do in remem brance of me.’ The church is the only place where this command is being regularly and devoutly observed. There must be a certain confusitfc in the minds of those who praise Christ and then denounce the church aa a need less incumbrance. I “Jesus announced in definite terms' his purpose to build a church. He saw many coining and going who held various theories about him and bis work; but there was oae close by him who loved him, trusted him and in a degree understood him. • In re sponse to an inquiry from the Mas ter. this man made a promising con fession of his faith. In his personal -attitude Christ saw the hope of the future. In reply, alining' to Peter’s name which means ‘a atone,’ Jesus said. ‘Upon this rock of •personal loy alty and trust I will build my church, nnd the gatea of hell shall not prevail againat it.’ , “Our text speaks of 'the Church of the Living God.’ a body of psople sus taining a special relation to Him. They call the church the ‘pillar and ground of the truth.’ It is the ‘house hold of God’ the ’body of CbMst,' the visible organism through whlA Christ works.

Khrling lost his first bout with se-i sense counsel when he was required to give the name of the young woman who shared ‘.lis automobile with him. but could not spell it. ‘‘Piiblie pol icy' - came to the rescue of the har assed witness when the defense in sisted further that the "girl" be more definitely identified by tile giving of her married name.

"It was a girl,” and later "she was a woman.” lie said, and when Prose cutor Simpson attempted to lend a hand by suggesting to Pie court that there might be a valid reason for with holding the imme, Khrling eagerly seized the straw. "Shq's married now, has two chil dren and a husband," he said. "And I refuse to give her name." "You most," ruled Justice Parker. “Yes, give the name. The court says you must,” added Mr. Simpson.

He said that lie saw Mrs. Gibson, the "pig woman.” Khrling laid testified that with this Mrs. Gibson, the "pig woman” there astride her famous mule. The time he spent in the lane was fixed by the witness at about two hours, between 8:30 o'clock and 11 p. m. He heard no shots, but two automobiles pass ed down the lane about 30 minutes be fore he lfft. The questioning was believed to be for the purpose of bringing Ehrling's companion in as a witness in an effort to refute his testimony.

Nashville, Tenn., Nov. 8. —In trib ute to "Davy” Crockett, famous pio neer and hero of the Alamo, Teunes aee. his native state, is to Pie ■ week beginning todny tks "Dnvi|l F CtoeSeft Week" by' proct|m»Htm ; of 1 ‘Governor l’eay. upon the suggestion of the Tennessee chapter of the Daugh i ter* of tbe American Revolution. 1 It was in the village of Limestone, on the Nolliohucky River, in eastern i Tennessee, that David Crockett was ' bom in 1780. His father, w)io was of Irish descent, had Wen a soldier of the Revolution. David’s boyhood was spent in the fields and woods and 1 his education wns so entiregly hegleet ' eil that he could neither read nor 1 write until his nineteenth year. At 1 the age of 12 he became a drover, and ‘ in 1818, at the breaking out of the Creek war, 'ae volunteered ill the ser vice, fighting bravely until its close. In 1821 he wns elected a representa tive of Tennessee legislature and was 1 again elected in 1923. attracting at i tention by his quaint wit and kqcn powers of perception. This led to his election in 182 ft as a representa tive ill the Twentieth Congress, and he was returned to the two subse ' qnent congresses. Meanwhile he made a canvassing tour in the interest of ■ Andrew Jackson, his former command er and personal friend, stumping the . northern and eastern states and creat . ing much amusement and interest by . his eccentricities in dress and manner and bis effective stories of his wild adventures. He was a candidate for the Twen ty-fourth Congress in 1(5)4, but n\v . ing to his opposition to Jnckson's In . dian bill, he was defeated by a small I majority. His popularity while in i Congress was due largely to his won , derful power aa an extemporaneous I spenker. and his npt expressions were . quoted long after their author was . dead. On one occasion he turned the noise made by a flock of guinea fowls , to good acount during his canvass of j east Tennessee by stopping in the , midst of a speech and exclaiming; , “Listen, gentlemen ! the very fowls are * halooing for Crockett, Crockett, Orock f ett!” In 1834 he removed to Texas, where he espoused the cause of the Texans ill their struggle for independence. 11l j March. 1836, he joined the force of , 134 men In the defense of the Alamo. and was one of the six who survived , the merciless slaughter, surrendering to Santa Ann, and were shot by hi* orders on the game day.

The familiar saying, "Be sure you’re right and then go ahead,” was original wipi David Crockett. He emblazoned this bit of homely advice on his banner when he set out to win the heart of his first love, Polly Findley, the bine-eyed Irish Fortune favored his quest, and the two were married in 1806. In 1810’ the Crocketts settled ill the Beans! Creek section of Tennessee. Their I homestead, in a beautiful valley lying snug against the foot of circling moun tains that embrace Hatchett’s Cove, provided a happy hunting ground. Crockett's fame as n boar hunter, there in the virgin forest, grew apace. The young couple and their two girl babies wore very happy. But dark clouds hovered overhead. Ere long David was called to fight the Creek In dians. Mrs. Crockett, at home, lived through dreary weeks and months of waiting. Dread of savages and of prowling wild animals undermine,l her health, and she died soon after her husband's return. Stricken with grief, he buried her there in the woods; and, since no marble cutters were at hand, he heaped some poor slabs of stone to mark her grave.
