MISSIONARY UNIOff. fresbyterlal Missionary Union l.thaKlaxs Mountain Pre$. fcytery Organized Addresses by Key. S. P. Smith and 1st. J. 0. EetTis Picnic Dinner. At the conclusion of the serv ices at the First Presbyterian church Wednesday the Presby te rial Missionary Union was or ganized. The meeting which was held for this particular pur pose, was attended by represent atives from the ten churches in the Kings Mountain Presbytery' There were two sessions of the meeting, a morning and an evening session. During the( interval between the two sessions an enjoyable picnic dinner was served on the church lawn. At the morning service there were two important addresses made. Rev. J. O. Reavis. of Nashville, Tenn.. secretary of Foreign Mis sions, made the first of these and Rev. R. P. Smith, superintend ent of Synodical Home Missions made the other. Appropriate music was also a feature of the morning session. During the noon hour, which was from 12 till z o'clock, a royal feast was spread on the lawn and a large number were present for dinner. The mem bers of the church had been in vited to come and bring filled baskets and spend the day at the church. This many of them did and as a result the many good things to eat. which are not in evidence except 6n such oc casions, were there in abund ance. During the afternoon, discus sions of the various phases of missionary work were discussed, followed by reports from the churches and societies. This was followed by the organization and the following officers of the union were elected : President, Mrs. D. R. LaFar, Gas tonia. 1st vice president, Mrs. J. A. Thom as. Shelby. 2d vice president, Mrs. J. V. Sain, Lincolnton. Recording secretary, Mrs. R. C. Anderson, Gastonia. Corresponding secretary and sec retary of literature, Mrs. S. A. Kind- ley, Gastonia. Treasurer, Mrs. Frost Torreuce, Gastonia. Executive committee, Mrs. J. S. Wise, of Lincolnton, Mrs. Lee Falls, of Alney and Miss Maggie Matthews, of New Hope. The next meeting of the Union will be held in Lincolnton. 1ISSAST DIRECTORS MEET. ; CONTEST ENDS TUESDAY. A TEXTILE CLUP. V Oil OHIctrs art He-Elected and Steps art Taken Toward ' Balldlnf Up tha Institation : 3C0 Fret Three-Months Tickets It he limed Canvass ft bt Madt lor Books. ' In the offices of the Citizens National Bank - Tuesday after noon at 5 "o'clock the board of directors of the . Gastonia Library Association met in an nual session and took some im portant steps looking to tne en larging of the library's facilities and a widening of its influence. The old officers were re-elected as follows: President, Rev. Dr. C. Galloway; vice president, Rev. R. C. Anderson ; secretary and treasurer, Mr. John F. Love; librarian, Miss Lottie Blake. In order to stimulate interest in the library and if posible in crease toe membership, it was moved and carried that 300 free membership tickets, good for three months, be issued to parties whom the board deems worthy and who evince any de sire to utilize tne advantages which the library offers. An other important step was the appointing of a book committee, the members of which will can vass the town for donations of desirable books or for donations of money with which to pur chase books which the directors may select as needed. In the future the hours when the libraiy will be open will be as follows: From 9 to 11 a. m., from 3 to 5 p. m. and from 7 to 9 p. m. The following committee on the purchase of books was ap pointed: Dr. D. E. McCon nell, J. H. Separk, J.E.Page, J. C. Galloway and Miss Lottie Blake. At present there is, practically speaking, no fund for the purchase of books, al most the entire revenue from rentals of offices and from fees being reauired to pay the run ning expenses of the institu tion. During the past year about $75 has been expended for books and magazines. The present membership is about 130; it should be at least twice or three times as large. The library is doing a great work for the town and the fact that the membership is so small, thus restricting bis influence, is to be regretted. Gasetto's Bl Jamestown .Votio Contest Closes at 10 A.
