formerly Dedicated Sunday
The dedication of tnc Warsaw
Methodist Church 1 was" effected
last Sunday, October 20, under the
most favorable; circumstances. Ev
ery! available Inch within the
church and upon the porch con
necting with the church school
building was taken by the crowd.
Bishop Paul Kern preached a pro
found and searching sermon upon
The Church", 'after which the of
ficers and leaders of the local
Church gathered;' at the altar rail
for the simple dedication cere
mony. One of the most happy features
of the service was the presence of
Mrs. Sallle E. 'Johnstone, who is
within a week or 'so of her nine
tieth birthday, and is the only sur
viving one of the charter members
of this church. A lovely solo was
sung by her' granddaughter, Miss
Nell Bowden. Rev. Frank Culbreth,
pastor under .whom the - present
building was begun read the scrip
ture lesson, and preached at the
evening service.;"
k The pastor welcomed former
members coming from other places
for the occasion, among whom was
J. 8. Fleming, cnalrman, of the
building committee, now principal
of the Falson Schools, who render
ed conspicuous service to his Chur
ch during his residence here. Alto
gether It was a glorious day; for
the little Church here, perhaps the
happiest in its entire history.
Bishop 'Kern was entertained In
the home of Mrs. Wayne Jordan
and left immediately after dinner
Sunday afternoon to dedicate an
other Church at White Oak in
Bladen County. ,i jr

Carter Field's Letters
Give Real Understanding
of National Capital News
. Now much more than in years
gone by people in this community, ,
as in every other community in uie
United States, are interested and
vitally concerned in what is going
on in Washington. They know that
events that are transpiring at the
National Capital will have a far
reaching influence on the every-day
affairs of the people of every com
munity, and they Want to knoir
What that influencs may be.
CARTER FIELD
Whose Illuminating Washington
Letters Appear in This Paper.
This paper is meeting this growing
demand for an interpretation of the
National Capital news by publish-ingr-a.
weekly: .'lettwwritten by
Carter Field,-a Btatesma Journal
ist whose .training has; ntted him
in every way for this, particular
Mob. His letter appears under the
heading, "seen ana neara flmuuu
the National Capital."
Mr. Field explains and interperts
the Capital news of the week. He
presents a background of informa
tion that enables the average read
er to understand clearly the move
ment and significance of events.
With unrivaled news sources and
writing with the impartial, level
headed wisdom of twenty years' ex
perience, Mr. Field tries, above
everything else, to get the truth,
and because pf his many friend
ships among men in high authority
in Washington, he succeeds in that
effort more often than do most
Capital correspondents.
Mr. Field went to Washington in
1915 for the New York Tribune,
which later becar. e the 1 Herald
Tribune. Since thti time he has
v.-ritten sanely and clearly about
wars, inflations, delations, deeds,
r.oble and ignoble, scandals that
shook the nation and events that
made a man feel proud to be an
American. For two decades he has
met squarely the exacting require
ments of a Washingion correspond
ent .. ...
We' are greatly pleased to be able
to give - you the benefit of Mr.
Field's observations on the news
now being made in Washington. We
are sure you will have a better
understanding and be able to talk
more intelligently of developments
at the National Capital if you read
Mr. Field's articles regularly.
