Just recently ih-.- . i and county people attended the minstrel given under auspices of tl: lia.tl. paying the very high fig in- .'t lifty cents each to see local its stuff on the stage. This itteudatice was a most convincing cviiii noe of Brevard's interest in the municipal band. We know that many members of the tiand are ready and anxious to begin the concerts. What is delaying the plan? Who is holding back the work of the band? What is it? The people oi' the town are entitled to Vnov/ : !! about this matter. Alter all is said and done, Brevard ami i uuisylvania county made this haad. and made possible the exist ing of the band. For many years the. town and county made contribu tions t? the band to enable the in structor to remain here and teach the ueothers of the band what they know ibcuf music. The band is a creature <t' Cue community, and no creature should ever consider himself bigger than his creator. .

P.? j SURELY, SURELY, SUFFERING ! IS SUFFICIENTLY HARD TO 1 HALT CONSTANT WRANGLING I Citizens of Brevard and Transyl vania county have qlway3 displayed keenest interest and deepest sympa thy when a neighbor was suffering, or in serious trouble. Strangers and \ !s:tovs often remark upon the kindly feelings existing here, and the fine display of human sympathy, when one neighbor is in trouble, or when death comes to a home and removes some loved one. Well, practically all tha citizens are now suffering ? mentally, physi cally, financially. Business is stag nated; houses are vacant and taxes eating up such property; mortgages coming due; notes long past due are being flashed in the face of nearly every citizen here. Surely this suffer ing is sufficient to call to the surface all that fine spirit which has marked this community as a most splendid place. Yet the scrapping goes merrily on, and on, and on. Within a few weeks this situation is to become more ag gravated than ever before. In addi tion to the trials and tribulations of the citizenship, with the inevitable li quidation ol' thousands and thousands of notes, with taxes due and payable, and sale of property in event taxes are not paid, in addition to all this, a court is soon to sit at which time the high sheriff of the county is to go on trial. A man whose popularity and standing in the community has been attested by a record of never having been defeated in the many times that he has been a candidate 1 for public office. Another man is to be tried, a man who was president of the bank here 1 for a long time. He was, for many years, the outstanding citizen of the community. But few men failed to go to him, at some time in the past, to receive favors. Still another man, for a quarter of a century the head of one of the county's greatest indus trial institutions, is to be tried at the coming term of superior court. Then, five men, constituting the board of county commissioners in that term lasting from December, 1928, to December, 1930, are to be tried. These men, representing the county from the Gloucester section in the upper end, to the Penrose section down the line, are men of high stand ing, conscientious in their efforts to serve the county which has long re spected them individually and as a group. And a lawyer, a young man who has worked his way up from the cord wood pile to leadership in his county, is to be tried. He who stood the fire of shot and shell in France, is now to be tried in the courts of his own county, by his own people who have long honored him as a leader. All of the above have been indict ed, and each has his friends, and each has his enemies. Now report has it that indictments will be asked against the present board of county commissioners and the present county attorney, and against the immediate past mayor and board of aldermen, town clerk and town attorney, all of whom are men of high standing, long active in behalf of their county and town. ' Further reports going the rounds j are to the effect that affidavits are j in hand upon which indictments will j be made against 124 election officials and election workers, charging irreg ularities and violations in the 1930 election. In this number will be citi zens in every precinct of the county, and in every walk of life. To make matters worse, this prosecution will, it is said, include some women. Where the thing will end, no one knows, and what good will be accom plished in it all is problematical. The j harm to be done, however, is so big, sci far-reaching, so destructive, that a blind man can see its devastating , j effect. < M "Man Lives 100 Hours with Bul let in Brain," says a headline in a daily newspaper. That's nothing to 1 snort about. We know a man who has ! lived 49 years and seven months ' without a brain into which a bullet might be fired. ( Now The Asheville Times will have something to editorialize upon, j world without end. Bishop Cannon ( has been once more at Lake Juna- t luska, and has once again declared j that no "wet, Tammanyite, licker- j ?feller" shall be elected president of j these United States of ours.

The Lesson And as they spake unto the peo ple, the priests and the captain of he temple and the Sadducees came oon them, being sore troubled be ause they taught the people, and iroclaimed in Jesus the resurrection rom the dead. And they laid hands m them, and put them in ward unto he morrow; for it was now even ide. But many of them that heard he word believed; and the number of he men came to be about five thoua md. And it came to pass on the norrow, that their rulers and elders ind scribes were gathered together in ferusalem; and Annas the >viest was there, and John, and Al 'xander, and as many as were of the cindred of the high priest. And when hey had set them in the midst, they nquired: "By what power, or m vhat name, have ye done this?" Then Peter, tilled with the Holy Spirit, said unto them: "Ye rulers of the people, and elders, if we this day are examined concerning a good deed one .0 an impotent man, by what means ;his man is made whole; be it known into you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of J^sus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye cruci Sed, whom God raised from the dead, jven in him doth this man stand here aefore you whole. He is the stone ivhich was set at nought of you the auilders, which was made the head 3f the corner. And in none other is there salvation; for neither is there anv other name under heaven, that is ariven among men, wherein we must be saved." Now when they be tela the boldness of Peter and John, and had nerceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marveled , and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus. And seeing the man that was healed standing with them, they could say nothing more. Comments oil fie Lensmx We come from last Sunday s les son, which was the first in this quarter's study, into today's lesson with the characters of the story in reverse positions. Throughout the last quarter Dr. Luke was telling us about the life and teachings of Christ, with his followers always with Him. The disciples were stud ents in all of these studies hereto fore, and in last Sunday's lesson they received their final instructions from the Master, as He said : "But ye shall receive power, when the Holy Spirit is come upon you; and ye shall be my witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. As these parting words left his lips, He was taken up, and a cloud received Hun out of their sight. Then came the day of Pentecost, and the Holy Spuit did come upon them, and the apostles were changed from students to teach ers and preachers, and Peter preach ed a great sermon on that day, after which three thousand men, pricked to the heart, made confession of their sins and asked of the apostles what thev must do, and Peter answered and said to them: "Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remis sion of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost." This the three thousand did, and the apostles continued their work, both in the temple and in going from house to house, carrying the message of Jesus Christ and Him crucified. Some ten days after the day of Pentecost, Peter and John went into the temple at the hour of prayer, and there was a lame man, a cripple from his birth, lying at the gate of the temple, where his people earned him each dav so he' could beg alms from those entering the temple for wor ship. When Peter and John approach ed. this beggar asked alms of them. Peter said to him: "Silver and gold have I none, but such as I hsive I give to thee. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk," And Peter took the cripple by the hand and lifted him up, and immediately his feet and ank! bones received strength, and he leaped up, stood, walked, and entered the temple, with Peter and John, shouting, jump ing. and praising God. All the people in the temple, having known the beg gar's life and his crippled condition, were amazed and stood speechless in the face of this wonderful thing. Then the healed beggar, a beggar no longer for he had received a million times more in one gift than all the alms of his forty years' begging had brought to him, pointed to Peter and John, and touched them, and embrac ed them, crying out that these men had healed him. Peter saw the look of consternation and amazement on the faces of the people, and addressed them thus: 'Ye men of Israel, why wonder at :his great change, or why look at us n this strange manner, as if we had lone anything? It is the God of Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, the 3od of our fathers, doing this in glorifying His Son, Jesus Christ. ?ou delivered Jesus up yourselves. Hid denied Him in the presence of Pilate when he was determined to let >ur Jesus go. But you denied Him, he Holy One, and desired a murderer :o be granted unto you instead. You ;illed the Prince of Life, whom God lath raised from the death to which ,-ou sent Him, and we are witnesses if these things." So Peter complet ed his message to the people gathered ibout, and all were deeply impressed vith the events just witnessed. It was while Peter was talking in his manner that our lesson for this Sunday begins in its printed verses. Vs Peter preached, the priests and . he captain of the temple, and the ? Sadducees came upon them. They rere violently angry with Peter for I elling the people these things, and , oughly they land hands on Peter and ohn and put them under guard un- j il the next morning, for it was then vening. Peter walked away under :uard, a prisoner, but he left five ; housand new converts in the big crowd which he had been talking to about Jesus Christ. Next morning Peter and John were brought before the rulers in a ses sion <>f the Sanhedrin, and the spokes man for the rulers asked Peter by what power, or by what name, he had done this thing? Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, promptly answered by saying: "Ye rulers of the people, and leaders of Israel, if we are to be ex amined this day of the good deed done to the crippled man, and to tell you how he has been made whole, be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that it was by the name of Jesus Christ, whom you cru cified whom God raised from the dead, that this man stands before you, a well and wholly cured man. This is the stone which was set at nought by you builders, which now has becomc the head of the corner. Nor is there salvation in any other name undei heaven given among men, wherebj we must be saved." Peter's boldness, his eloquent, force ful language, nonplussed the priest: and rulers. They knew Peter anc John to be unlearned, ignorant men -et they had just heard matchless Words of wisdom spoken with a cour age that was new to these bosses oi the people. The rulers looked at Johi and Peter, and then at the once crip pied man, standing there as perfee as any among them, they could sa; nothing. They knew not whet to say and, like all cowards when they havi heard the truth, they sent Peter am John out of the room and went int< executive session. When the ?'er and elders were alone, one oi then said: "This is serious business. VV cannot deny the fact that these is norant men have worked a notabl miracle. Everybody in Jerusaler knows about it, and knows that it if indeed, a great thing that these tw 'men have done. We will go easy wit ?this matter, for it is a delicate situa tion. We will bluff these fellows. W will call them back into the room, an threaten them with the punishmen which shall be meted out to them i they ever again speak to another ma in the name of Jesus Christ." Peter and John were duly calle back into that august presence, an one of the number, with a frown ur on his face and a fearful look in hi eve said to them: "You must nc speak at all or teach in the name c Jesus Christ any more. We comman vou, and we are the rulers here. For an answer Peter and John san "You must be the judge whether is right in the sight of God for r to obey you more than we obey bo. For we can speak of nothing else e: cept the things which we have see and heard." Again the rulers threa ened the two teachers, but the threat were unavailing, and had n,? . whatever upon the determined follov ers of Christ, so the rulers, fearin the people who had been converts could find no way to punish the tw men without arousing the multituc let them go. And, being let go. Pete and John went on back to the ottu disciples and reported the events c the day. The army of followers < Christ praised God for the work ths had been in the name of Jest Christ. What have we here? Peter, the ui lettered man, the fellow who denie Christ when pointed out as being or I of the number, denied Him thre times in rapid succession now preacl ing such soul-stirring sermons th? men by the thousands were being adc ed to Christ's Kingdom. That's whi we have. How was it done? v\ h? brought about this great transfoi mation? The Holy Spirit had com upon him and into him. He had foi i gotten self in the service of Jesu Christ. He was ready to preac Christ and Christ alone. Rulers an priests and officials held ^ no terio l'or this man who was iilled wit the Holy Spirit. When called upon t give his authority for healing th crippled, he gave it, boldly, openlj fearlessly. Then what is lacking today? Wh 'are not men being led to Christ b the thousands, as Peter's preachin; led them? Are we laying too mucl stress upon college preparation o preachers, and paying scant attentioi to the all important part that th Holy Spirit must play in this grea work of the Master? Is the spirit o the diplomat stronger with th preachers today than the Spirit o the Holv Ghost? If our preachers an at fault, can we blame them so ver; much? Preachers are men, after all with all the human emotions to bi found in any average man. The; 'dread the onslaught of the critics iust as other men dread it. Take th< liquor forces of America, the gam that would repeal the prohibitioT law$ ? powerful it is, with an almos absolute control of the press. Th< preacher who stands up and battle: that gang must be filled with the Holy Spirit. I was talking with Bish op James Cannon one day last week and. looking into his eyes I saw tht spark of fire leap forth at the men tion of the millions of attacks thai have been made upon him. He has led the fight against the repealers and the guns of a thousand sharp -hooters have been trained upon him for years. Yet he battles on and on. Take any average minister in any average town, and let him preach against sin existing in his town, that is, really preach against it, and ere lung his official board would come to gether, in executive session like the members of the Sanhedrin held their counsel against Peter and John, and after a while the minister would be brought before that board, agd the word given him that he must never e.gain say such things in cho pulpit as he had been saying. We do not want the truth, any more than the priests and leaders and captain of tile tem ple wanted 'the truth as spoken by Peter and John. We want flattery and cajolery, rather than the undy ng and everlasting truth. We want .he preacher to tell us how good we i I Interesting Chapters in W. N. C. History BREVARD-DAVIDSON RIVER CHURCH OLD PRESBYTERIAN INSTITUTION By (JUDGE ROBERT L. GASH) 1890?1915 . j During the winter of 1890 ana 1 ; 1891 Rev. D. McNeil Turner. D. D.. i spent the winter at Davidson River. J ;and much of the time preached at j ! Davidson River. He also taught a ] private school for several months. In i the Spring of 1891, Dr. Turner's son, : McNeill Turner, from Corpus Christi i Texas, suddenly arrived, making his father an unexpected visit. The schoo. suddenly stopped; also Dr. Turners 1 visit. | i In 1891, the public school started. as usual, in the late Summer, and in i : the Fall, the roof of the church I caught fire from a defective flue, and ( , the building was burned to the ; ground. Plans for rebuilding were at once started. The church desired to , seperate the church and school and the trustees conveyed to the school committee a quarter of an acre of " land at the South end of the church | grove for a school site, and allowed , 1 the school children to use the church | 1 grove as a playground, an arrange 3 ment that continues to this day. ? i At the Fall meeting of Mecklen 1 burg Presbytery, formation of a 1 church at Brevard was authorized. In I October 1891, a number of members: . living in or near Brevard were grant- , ' ed letters of dismissal, and they be ' came the charter members of the j Brevard Church. Rev. J. M. Grier; n supplied both churches during the s remainder of 1891 and 1892. ri The work of building the new e church went forward rapidly. A few - months later, when the construction e was advanced sufficiently to permit n using the building, Dr. D. McNeill s, Turner (who was again on a visit to 0 Davidson River) preached the first h sermon in the new church. i- ; Mr. Grier was called to other e fields, and Rev. J. L. Wicker came to d Brevard, to supply the Brevard and t Davidson River churches, which he f did until November 1899. n i Mr. Wicker built his home in Bre ! vard ? then on the Old Asheville d Road, three quarters of a mile from d the court house, across the road >- from the M. J. Orr residence. '? 'I A coincidence in connection with , the Wicker residence: The St. Phil j ips Episcopal church had been form d ed in Brevard, and the old Episcopal . church, St. Paul's in the Valley, on ' the Greenville road, had been dissolv il ed. The old St. Paul's building was 's sold, and Mr. Wicker bought it, and 1 used the lumber in building his resi dence. P Mr. Wicker is well and affection . . ately remembered by all the "old set ^ tiers.' ' c- It was during Mr. Wicker's pastor lK ate that Mecklenburg Presbytery met d at Davidson River, in 1896, and sent ro the overture to the Synod for the for le mation of Asheville Presbytery. ;r ! Rev. D. M. Douglas came to serve :r the Brevard and Davidson River >f churches in 1900, and remained until >f March 1904. Mr. Douglas has been it prominent in educational circles for is many years, and still visits Brevard for a vacation nearly every summer. 1 In the summer of 1904 Rev. C. B. d Currie came to Brevard and David ie son River, and served the churches .e until November 1905. Mr. Currie was i- iust out of the seminary, youthful, it enthusiastic arid energetic and cover 1- ed more territory in his pastoral it work than most of the preachers. Lt However, it was difficult for a young r- ster just out of school to deliver the ie seasoned sermons that would satisfy ?. the old members ? old ones being the g majority of the congregations ? who h had been accustomed to hearing d "heavyweight" sermons for many ,r years. Also, one of his sermons on h "usury'' raised a row and much fnc o tion 'a number of his flock were en e gaged in selling Bibles on the Sou thorn plantations, at what he called ' an exhorbitant and usurious profit), y I At any rate, he left. y j In 1906, a number of the members g of Davidson River objected to after h noon services; objected to be yaled f with Brevard under one preacher; ob e already are, rathe - than to tell us, t as Peier told the folks back yonder, f that there is no other name known e under heaven wherebv a man may be f saved except that of Jesm Chi'st. e| Just so our chuveh organization is J in fine shape, and all the departments > functioning nicely and smoothly, we e are o. k. The choir inust be just f right; the classes must have a cer ; tain per centage of attendance; the - budget must be maintained; (he re ! ports to the conference, assembly or i association must show all claims paid t up. All formalities must be l'aultlcss ? ly performed. When v/e have done ? these things, what matters ic about ? the Holy Spirit, or the number of - converts during the year. Such seems , to be our attitude today toward this ? great church work in which we are ? engaged in half-hearted manner, as c though we attended church as a mat i ter of being nice and proper, rather i i than to fall at the foot of the cross j ? and cry unto God to make us whole. I i . We stand in awe of men and fear ( not God. We want to please the pow- ' ' ers that be in the community, and be . ' pleasing in their sight, while think ing nothing of what God thinks of | ' us. We want money instead of mer- ! ? cy. We want wealth instead of wis ; dom. We want gold instead of Go;. We think more of the standards of society than we do of the suffering of a Savious who died for us. We i are proud and haughty, rather than i , obeying the Lord by being humble, j We need the Holy Spirit, that pov> ?r j which changed Peter from a cring-j, . ing coward who denied his Saviou ; . jinto a fearless, fighting, forceful-; j preacher who boldly declared that | i salvation can come through no other ', jname known to man except that of | j Christ. We need to leam that we | ?must obey God rather than men. iected to young preachers just out of :he seminary; and started the move ment to again secure Rev. W. H. Davis as pastor. On invitation. Mr. Davis again visited the field. After he left, a subscription list was made up. The result was that on July 1st 1906 Mr. Davis again came to Dav idson River, which he served until retired in September 1914. During part of this time, he divided time* with Mills River. He continued to preach from time to time until his death in 1915. In the Spring of 1915, Asheville Presbytery held a special meeting in Brevard, and instructed the two churches to work together. Dr. R. C. Reed, D. D., of Columbia, S. C., served the two churches during the summer of 1915, dividing time equal ly, one Sunday preaching at Brevard in the morning and at Davidson River in the afternoon, and the next Sunday reversing this arrangement. While Dr. Reed was here, he con ferred with the two churches about possible preachers that might be available for this field, and, after con sidering the various one? thougkt available, gave his advice that the best one for the field was a young man who had studied under Dr. Reed, had been preaching for several years in the low country, but who had been ordered to a higher altitude on ac count of malaria. This young man was John R. Hay. Mr. Hay, on be ing invited, visited the field, preach ; ing at both churches, and visiting 'nearly all of the members of both churches. Following this visit, 'churches called him as pastor, and he i came to the field again on Dec. 1st, 1915. | The next chapter will take up the . pastorate of Mr. Hay.
