SUNDAiY IN WILLIAMSTON
What the people did in town Sun
day would be a hard question to an
swer folly.
Speaking from the religious side of
the question, we get much pleasure
from the day's experiences, because It
brings us into contact with people of
all agea and stations of life.
First is a view of a Sunday school,
where we find a large gathering em
bracing what we call the beat of our
race, the children, the older ones, and
then the old, all studying together,
praying together, singing together, all
praiaiag God the Creator. There we
U w man Rifihinf toward the higher
life nKbad only through the love of
Jeaua.
Hurrying from the Sunday school
to a church where we heard the mel
low tones of the pipe organ pealing
out praise of the Lord, followed by
hymns of praise, prayers, and thanks,
and a sermon proclaiming the word of
the Lord, that men might know and
worship Him.
The next event was a memorial
serriee, where man were filled with
fraternal love inspired by the spirit
of Christianity. Heas we listened to
a special choir Binging songs of
praiae. The orator of the day spoke
eloquently of the opportunities that
man has to regain the favor of God
through the friendly teaching of His
i'
Son.
Then a new opportunity to think,
study, and worship presented itself in
a large gathering of colored people in
a Sunday school and church rally,
where waa found no leas of the same
spirit of worship as before. Aside
from the regular Sunday school pro
gram thay had on hand a special
choir from Darden* and two special
quartettes, each composed of four
young colored men. When one was
not in action another was—something
doing every minute—and the fellow
who says the negro is forgetting how
to sing is Much of the sing
ing would have done credit to a re
fined and trained audience. There
waa no preaching, bet much praying,
in the program J
The religious day closed with the
regular services at the various
churches and a sermon by Mr. Her
man Smith at the courthouse. Mr.
Smith ia a follower of Pastor Russell
and proclaims n dodctrine of many
ehaagea from the old order of things.
He greatly modifies hell; in fact, takes
moat of the Are out of it
His doctrine seems to make the
rend pretty easy for man.
Ha classifies the bettor claas of
church members aa such as will be
priests and heirs with Jesus Christ;
then ceases the caieleaa, wayward,
thooghdeea, who will bo called from
the gen** in the judgment and will
hica— a part at the kingdom on earth
and who will build heusas and plant
trsea, as we new do. There the
preacher Uft than, ia their paradise,
the«oi ha did not give either begin
ning nor the ending of this marveioua
ceaiHat er state of man.
MH, imrltng to this preacher,
will never be called to the resurrec
tienj that St ia the purpoee to de
stroy him, «Mad f, both aool (which

This doctrine given man the oppor
tunity to worship and serve God now
and become a joint heir with Chris",
now in the heavenly kingdom or the
chance to while the way along not do
good and not no bad; die both soul
- SZ
and body until the trumpet of the
Lord shall sound, when all shall be
called from the grave to rein habit
this earth in fulfillment of the word 3
of the Lord's prayer, "Thy Kingdom
come on earth as it is in heaven." Then
the really had are dead, dead, dead;
aw the beast is dead.
When the day is over, more than a
thousand people have stood with head*
bowed to worship God, yet n.any see
ing the Deity from different vi*w
loinU. There may be danger in man'*
proclaiming a doctrine simply be a,:«e
it appeals to him. He may be moved
by iinpul&e and yet not guided liy
truth.

abroad in the land, and whatever pes
simista may say, man is rapidly ad
vancing toward the mark of the high
calling—the worship of God and fel

DR. LAUGHINGHOUSE'S SPKtiO!
Dr. Charles CH. Laughinghouse, of
Greenville, was in Williamston last
week and addrest>ed H small group of
men most splendidly on North Caro
Una's resources. 'The address went
t>o near the root of the subyt that
it might well be called a base-rock
speech.
Of course, he calls the boys and
girls our principal resources, and his
speech dealt with what to do with our
resources, which has become the great
eat of all problems that we have to
grapple with since the large num
ber of avenues of pleasure and oppor
tunities have been placed before us
in this day.
We can not change the condition of
things nor can we change the nature
of youth. We all have the same im
pulses, the same general inclinations.
We meet the great flood tides of de
struction all along the way; then it
is when the force ef proper care and
training is most needed. The impres
sions of higher life, the sacredness of
life itself, and the fact that every
generation is charged with the im
provement of the world, to make it at
least one degree better that those ccfn
ing after may have a better highway

to happiness and prosperity than those
who have already passed.
If they are to be what we would
have them be, then we must teach
them, which is the big job. Of course,
they do not need too much religion,
not enough to make them sad and
solemn. They must have enough play
and fun, just how much each indi
vidual needs is a perplexing question.
One thing, however, seems to be
fully settled in the minds of all; the
young man or woman who would fill
the idea must have honor and truth
and power to stand up for what is
right, regardless of whatever may
happen.
Some people say that in that period
of time called "the good old days
when 1 was young and folks behaved
themselves" was a day when youth
was fenced in. Now they say we have
the no-fence law for our children.
They, both big and little, may go
wherever they please and associate
with anybody, many miles away, per
haps with those as good as they
themselves. No man can regulate the
course ef his own child in the open
range. Nothing short of a collective
movement by all fathers and mothers
can combat the very serious condition
which confronts us.
Then, we must furnish the right
reading, the right fellowship, the
rigrht amusement.
The Y. M . C. A. has come nearer j
making men out of boys than any or
ganization that we have given them
ao far, and the same thing applies to
the Y, W. C. A. for young women.
We need more of both.

- Nitrate Application
# Should Be
Finished By June Ist
As a result at four years' (apart
ments on cotton, the Mississippi
(Delta) Experiment Station recom
mends as "the safest and most paying
rata of application" from 160 to 200
pounds of Nitrate of Soda per acre.
I Thsas results an ao typical of the
large majority of those sscursd with
Nitrste at experiment stations
throughout the South, that they-sire
summarised here to snow the 4-year
average net profit from I different
treatments, aa follows:

*SO IMT
The Station's remits are interesting
from another standpoint, for accord
ing to the Director of the Station they
indicate that there is danger of apply
ing Nitrate too lata.
Thus, when the application is mock
over 100 pounds per acre, it is recom
mended that half be used at planting
and half at the second cultivation,
but, says Director Ayrss, "Those who
are not sure ths fertiliser can be ap
plied as a side dressing by the time
the first squares appear should apply
it all at orbefore planting."
This, of course, Is true nottimpiy of
cotton but of many other crops as
well. For sxampla, Farm Afsnt H. H.
Hester, Red River Parish, Louisiana,
reports that disnonatmtioas on sugar
cane in which 200 pounds of Nitrate
of Sods per acre were used gave excep
tional yields despite a dry season. It
was clsariy shown by these testa that
early applications of Nitrata "are
essential to give full protection against
a possible drouth."
As a general rule, side dressings of
Soda at ths rate of 100 pounds per
acre ean be profitably made if ths
work ean be finished by ths first of
Jons. (!)
