II urns a Latchkfty to Over Sixteen II Hundred Martin County Home* VOLUME XXXIII—NUMBER 85 "NEW PASTOR IS WELCOMED BY TOWNSPEOPLE Members of Several Con gregations Join To Wel come Rev. Rogers Rev. C. T. Rogers was welcomed to the pastorate of the local Methodist Church laat Sunday evening in a special service held in that church with the other religious denominations canceling their services to take part. As several of the local ministers were out of town, only Reverends C. H. Dickey and W. F. Wiegmann took part as visiting pastors. In opening the service, Mayor R. L. Coburn welcomed the new minister to the town. Taking his place in the pulpit, Rev. Mi Rogers preached on "Environ ment," which he referred to as the most influential element in the forming the character and citisenship of the moat of us. "We usually follow the crowd whether it i» marching up or marching down, and we are respon sible. for the kind of town and home we have," the minister declared. Con tinuing he said, "If we are around bootleggers, chum with and follow them we are subject to become boot leggeri; if we stay among those who curse, we often form the same habit, and for that reason we should be very particular in choosing our companions. No intelligent man is ignorant of what is right or wrong he knows from the force of his own conscience wlten he it doing right or doing wrong. "The question comes straight to us all, "Are you satisfied with your town, your home and even yourself?" Are we doing the best things for our children by living the proper Christian lives? Have our children more respect for th* world than they have for our own lives? "There is something in our lives that will rile above our environment if we will only let the light of Jesus shine in on it." .y The minister illustrated his asser tion by telling how the beautful rose becomes dissatisfied to lie encased in the ground and springs up as a monu ment of beauty, purity and sweetness. The lilly grows up front the muddy Oicrsh to display its beauty. And so can the boy and girl grow up frctm the sluml of society and become shining lights among people. "But it takes high ideals, courage, humbleness and tlif love of Jesus to do it," the new pastor assured his large congregation. UNUSUAL FIRE OCCURS HERE Firemen Carry Fire From C. O. Moore's Store In Showcase The unusual in fires was reported here late last Wednesday night when a blue was discovered in the tobacco show case of the C. O. Moore and Company store on Washington "Street. Answering the alarm about 10:45, the fire company checked the fire in a vrry short time with very little damage resulting to property. Believed to have been started when ferrate disturbed a match box in the show case, the fire had burned only a short while when it was disvored by paaacrs-by. The fire company, many members of which had already retired, made a quick response and after view lot the blaze sent for the store owner that an entrance could be gained with out breaking the door glass. Once in side the firemen picked up the burn iag show case and carried it into the street where the burning cigarettes and other tobaccos were removed. The sev eral plates glasses in the case were cracked by the heat, but the other pro perty loss was limited to a few ci garettes and cigars.

Already the IK liday spirit lurks in the minds and hearts of the young scholars, a little different probably is that spirit this year, but enough of the, old remains to express the overflowing enjoyment resulting from a few days' leave from the school room. Early busses today carried a few of the* forerunners to the heavy traffic rush that comes during the season when teachers return to their homes to enjoy the season with their fathers and mothers and relatives besides the firesides. The traffic is expected to show a decided increase late this after non and tonight when students in the various educational institutions start the trek to their homes and families. Home, exchange of gifts, Santa Claus, a few more days and then the return to the school room for a continuation of class work and *study. The local school will reopen (lie 31st for regular work, and many others will also resume their work at that time. There are one or ,two others that will open at a later date, it was learned from the office of the county superintendent here today. XMAS SERVICES FOR METHOIDSTS New Pastor Uurges Every one To Attend Service Someplace Sunday C. T. ROGERS, Paator Christmas services at the church Sunday morning at 11 o'clock. Ser vices at 7:30 P. M. All are invited who are not expecting to attend ser vices at some other church. Surely every one, sinner or saint, will attend the Christmas service at some church Sunday morning. "Some Methodists are like those ten lepers Christ met. . They were in need and Christ told them what to do. All were blessed, but only one returned to thank Jesus for his goodness. Me thinks I hear Jesus say in a very sad voice, "were there not . ten cleansed? but where are the nine?" It seems as little as one can do, is to go up to the house of God on the Sabbath day and thank Him for whaf He has done for. you during the weela Member, would your excuse be ac cepted at the judgment bar of- God if you were to die in that condition? It is best to settle this question, and settle it now. Prepare now to meet your God, and then, whether you live or die, your life is what God requires at your hand. Where were the nine last Sunday morning at Sunday School? Where were the nine at the Church services? Imagine yourself standing before the judgment bar of God, and try to tell your excuse to Him, see how far you get with it. With few exceptions, we do what we want to do. Our blessed God will be waiting each Sunday to meet you at the church. Be present, you are the one that will get the blessing, and you are the one that will need it, and that at no distant day. C. T. Rogers, pastor.

BEGIN DRIVE TO AID LOUISBURG ♦ Needs of Methodist Institu tion To Be Presented in Churches Sunday » i Efforts on the part of the Trustee of Louisburg College to raise appro ximately $12,000.00 among the mem bers of the North Carolina Conference and friends of the institution before January 10, 1931, for the purpose of supplementing the income of the Col lege to meet its operating expenses for the spring term arc meeting with en couraging response on all sides, it was stated this week by Rev. R. G. Ed wards, pastor of the local Methodist Church. There is a spirit of coopera- tion ort the part of the students, facul ty, alumnae, and friends of the College throughout the North Carolina Con ference of the Methodist Episcopal ; Church, South. The North Carolina Conference has definitely committed itself to the plan of the Trustees of the College through action taken by its ministers and lay men in meetings held in each .of the I nine districts of the Conference dur ing the last ten days. It has been | pointed out that to raise the proposed amount will call for only a small contri bution from each pastoral Charge. The plan for the raising for this fund includes the following: First, that the cause of Louisburg College shall be presented in all of the Churches of the North Carolina Conference either on December 21, or December 28, and voluntary offerings bo taken at that time for the College. Second, that each Methodist pastor designate such other church workers as he may see fit to assist him in so liciting private contributions. It is suggested that the pastors may find former students of Louisburg Cbllege to be especially helpful in this work. V• ' Special Midnight Service At Church of the Advent A Rev. A. H.

POSTAL RUSH IS LITTLE FELT AT LOCAL OFFICE Marked Drop Noticed In Number of Packages Handled Here LESS THAN LAST YEAR Extra Help Will Hardly Be Needed At Local Office Judging from Present Indications While there has been a slight in crease in' the postal business at the lo cal postoftice during the past day or two, the amount of mail handled so far has been less by far than that handled during the same time last year, and a limited business is predicted for the remainder of the season by Post master Jesse T. Price. "Of course there'll be the last-minute rush, but the volume of business, the number of letters and packages will reach a new h w level according to the present out- U ok," Mr. I'rice stated yesterday. The law creating jobs in the postof- fices throughout the country for the unemployed during the holiday sea sou will hardly affect the office here, as the regular force will he able ty handle the business Tlvith one or two exception. City deliveries are expected to increase to that point where it'll lie necessary to provide the carriers help. Dispatching and handling the incom ing mail can be well handled by the present force, it is believed. According to unofficial reports, very few offices outside those in the large cities are finding it necessary or an ticipate the need of extra help during the season. The office in Baltimore added around 84 employees to its list, and other pities as large have about as many. BANK DECLARES EXTRA DIVIDEND Branch Bank & Trust Co.

The first snow of the season fell here early Wednesday morning and ( late that night, but the conditions were not just right and there was no blan ket of the white matter to be seen in [this immediate section. West of Tar boro, however, the flakes established a foothold and left a blanket measur ing two inches at Rocky Mount and as much as sixteen in Salisbury. The number of frozen water pipes hecj was limited, and anti-freeze li quids saved automobile radiators. Ac cidents resulting from slippery roads were few in this section, local garages reporting only two. A Chrysler skid did on the Roanoke River bridge and was damaged, hut no one was hurt. A second accident-was reported on tin Correnine C'r£ek bridge, but no | one was hurt and the resulting car damage was repaired at a small cost. Mail deliveries by bus were late; but ,as a vyjiole the schedule were satisfac torily maintained despite the frozen surface on the highways in this section, i In those centers where the snow covered the earth with as much as [eight to twelve inches, traffic was re ported blocked and schedules were greatly delayed, jitney and street cars being forced to shelter in several of tin larger towns and cities in this State. \ esterday, the mercury started up ward and continued to climb today, the prophets predicting rainy weather tomorrow.
