It w fc . many attended the service', due probably to the fact that the hour was not convenient to the housekeepers and the fact that court was in . session. Those -who did not attend, however, missed a splendid serviced The ' church was suitably decorated ior, thVj)ccasion and special hymns had been practiced by ' members of all the choirs in town. Rev. Mr. Andre of the " Presbyterian church ' was in charge of the service, reading a Psalm and offering prayer. , - THE SERMON Rev. Westley M. Ilyds of Wal-J nut preached, and as it was a union service, we attempt to give an outline of what he said, . which we considered a splen did sermon. . He began by cal ling attention to the fact that . Thanksgiving Day is set apart both by the President of the " United States and by the Gov ernor of North Carolina, on the which the people are to ' as semble in their respective plac es of . worship and " return ' thanks' to the Creator of the Li LI LI LzaLJ L 0 1 a BARNARD'S, the owners and proprietors of the two largest 'warehouses in Greenville, Tenn., will aJso op erate the warehouse at Morristown, Tenn., this year. -Morristown, as a market, will be very beneficial to the iobacco grower of Western N.

The preacher then discussed God in His relation to man, bringing out both sides of God, that of Love and that of Jus tice. "God is just to forgive,'.' said the'preacher, We are to be measured by God as a stan dard, and not man a divine standard. . He then discussed the Character of God and the Character of Man as far a part as the poles and the re conciliation. Thankfulness is the result of nature, or a natu ral characteristic. . Three reasons 'were given for giving thanks: V 1. It is gratifying to God. "It's a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord." I ' 2. We ought. We express thanks to our children and we teach them to do likewise. The laws of nature should awaken our thanks and gratitude, for were the laws of nature re lfAfoaH urnor wmilH nprnm p .nt ;:i0VU, " 1 T mankind? . 3. : Thanksgiving is instruc tive and beneficial. . .

' By HOD ELLER Playing before one of the largest crowds that has ever gathered for an athletia contest in Weaverville which was' estimated at 2,000 the Weaver College football team defeated the strong Mars Hill College eleven Thursday afternoon by the score of 10-0. , , Weaver received the first kick off and by a series of end runs and short passes brought the ' ball to the 30 yard line where Kuykendall placed the ball between the posts for a field goal. The quarter ended with the ball in Weaver's possession and the second quarter constated of exchange punts between the two teams the half end ing with the ball on Mars Hill's terri tory on the forty yard Vine. Mars Hill lost their best chance to score at the beginning of the last half . when Kuykendall fumbled punt on the 90-yard line and Cook re covering After several attempts to pierce the strong line of the Metho dials, Sams attempted "a field goal the ball going . wild and being brought to tho 20-yard line in the pos session of Weaver. ' ' ... .. The Baptists did not threaten a. gain until the last quarter when sev eral pauses netted them substantial gains but a fumble caused them to 'ose fifteen, yards and they were forced to punt out of danger. Weaver unhooked several passes and long end runs which' placed the ball on her 10-yard line and an end run netted then 3 yards. -"Jones car"- i-ying the ball .over on the next play by a line plunge.

As' announced In last week's paper, the Annual Praise Ser vice if the Ladies' Missionary Society of the Presbyterian church was held at the church Wednesday, evening, Novem ber 26 at seven o'clock. Spe cial music had been .prepared, which was enjoyed by all who attended. Rev. Mr. Hadleyj of Dorland Bell School- at Hot Springs, on account , of illness, could not be present to speak, as had been announced, but he klid the next best thing possible and that was to send his good wife, who was with Jam in China: v This writer has never had the pleasure of hearing Mn Hadley, but if "he " is any more interesting as .a speaker than his wifey he must be fine. Mrs. Ha"dley- gave a most, in teresting talk on conditions in north-ilri ina,-: her eserip Hons being so graphic that her audience had a real visit to the great country of China. After the talk, hot 'coffee and cake were served. Use Storage Pit For Winter Vegetable . Supply Farmers living in the-upper Pied mont and Mountain sections of North Carolina may prolong the season for fresh vegetables this winter by dig ging and using a storage pit. ' This storage pit may be used to ad vantage with any of , the root crops such as 'turnips, carrots, parsnips, salsify and to a limited ektent wit cabbage. . . ' Glenn O. Randall, extension horti culturist for ' th State College of Agriculture, states that the use of the Itorage pit will overcome some of the deficiencies of diet 'experien ced by many families in winter be cause of a lack of vegetables in the food.'., ,,":--;.;;;., j, The pit is , made as- follows: Se cure a well drained location'; dig out about four inches of soil of the area as that desired for the pit and -fill this with straw; pile the .vegetables upon this straw in a conical form a bout a four-board ventilator or flue made by nailing four six-inch boards together; cover the vegetables with a layer of straw about eight to ten inches thick and then put on a thin layer of earth and the pit is made. As the weather becomes severe, the layer of earth may be made thick er and thicker and during an un usually bad spell It might be wise to add a ' layer of - manure over the whole. The end of the flue should protrude slightly above the mound and need not be closed except during the most severe weather. Mr. Randall states that where a large quanity of vegetables ia to be stored or many different kinds, it would be wise to build more than one pit In this way, the other vege tables would not - be exposed when only one kind was wanted. -'K'.COJEGS We regret that we are compelled ko!J tit C-psrior Court proceed- unta next week- ' The Editor) Rev. George P. Lanier , Has a Word for . Baptists ,-... Dear Baptists: v On the outset of my work as acting-director for the French Brpad Association about a month ago, many would have seriously discouraged me in the work by intimating tha many persons and churches would turn a cold shoulder" to me. Some have, but to no very great extent On, the whole, my heart has been made to re joice and my soul highly uplift ed by the way people, individ ually and collectively, have re ceived and welcomed me back. But the thing that has encour aged , and done me the most good is the splendid manner in which most all the churches have responded to the appeals in behalf of the $75,000,000, 5 year program and the United Program for 1925. 5 Most churches and individuals have not only been willing, but glad to have a part, especially in the 1925 program. (Many having been misinformed as to the $75,000,000 Campaign, seeing the mistake, are not only com ing up with their ; pledges to God, but are doing more. Praise God for all true Mission ary Baptists, both Iaymten and ministers t And many thanks for their kindness,' etc., toward - GEO. P. LANIER BUSINESS AS USUAL Old Levy was on his deathbed. He ivas very, very old, and there was no Joubt that every moment he was :,inkin,fast. Also, his sight was failing, so tTiat ho could barely see the outlines of the figures of his an tious famiiy gathered at his bed side. "Is Rachael there?" he 'asked.

"Yes, father," came the answering chorus. The old man raised himself sud denly on his elbow. "Then who, to Moses, is looking after the shop.

"These eve the primary purposes of pruning a fruit tree," sayd Glfchi O. Randall, extension horticulturist for the State College of Agriculture. "In forming the future tree, with ap ples, the scaffold limbs are distribut ed around a central leader lmb which as the tree develops should be come tne trunK. win peacnes, an' open neaded system of pruning ifl ad- -visable, in which case the tree is trained to not more than four scaf fold limbs so ' selected that ho two limbs are exactly opposite. That is done to prevent weak crotches'." Mr. Randall states that sunlight is necessary to best color of fruit and if there is not a free circulation of . air, danger from plant diseases is greater. ', He says, "Experiments with apple trees made by the North Carolina Station show conclusively that it is best to thin out the, small branches rather than to prune severe ly cutting back the large, branches. Because' of soil conditions in the Sandhills it is necessary to prune the peach trees here rather severely. In . all other cases, however, It is not , wise to cut out too much wood." u I V' 1 1 1 1 property, advertised - this nanpr mi Mnn. l- two years, insteaf of H' sold iii separate lots Ac?n:r.::!rrtcr f V
