Hornady, of Maxton. Rev. Mr. Horn- ady did the preaching, and preached plain Bible truth. He held the atten tion of the vast audience who as- semblied at each service to hear him from beginning to end. When he took his text, he stuck to it, and its meaning was plain and forcible. Thirty years ago he was a popular and prominent preacher of Cameron Methodist church. He has grown older, but he has grown in grace and, if it could be possible, more conse crated. Rev. and Mrs. J.

EUREKA COMMUNITY CAMP From Tuesday, August 29th, to Thursday night, August 31st, the peo ple of Eureka comniunity enjoyed a most delightful trip to Thaggard’s Pond. There were twenty-five mem bers of the party, old and young, who spent the entire time on the grounds, while during each day the number was swelled to thirty-five or forty. On the last night of the camp there were from seventy-five to a hundred visitors on the grounds. The most delightful feature of the evening was the music rendered by the ladies of the Carthage Music Club. After sev eral selections by the club, everyone present lent hearty and lusty support to an old-fashioned community sing. The moon shining on the lake gave enchantment to the scene, and it was with regret that the campers dis banded at a late hour and returned to their homes. E'ureka has set a precedent for other communities, and has proven that it is not impossible for farmers with their wives and.children to leave home for several days, along with their neighbors, for social enjoyment and recreation. The great success of this camp points to a larger and longer camp for Eureka community at the end of the summer of 1923. EUREKA NEWS ITEMS WHOM WILL IT BE?
