SECRETARY JOSEPHUS DANIELS MESSES CONFERENCE Eminent North Carolinian Dis cusses the Duty and Oppor tunity of the Church in Mod ern Days. BISHOP'S SERMON WAS MASTERFUL DISCOURSE "Judas" Was Theme of Great Utterance Sunday Morning Annual Love Feast and Or dination Services Were Other Features of Conference Sun day. The Sunday features of the Western North Carolina Conference of Methodists in session at Greensboro were the splen did sermon delivered by Mishop Darling ton nt 11 a. in. in West Market street church, and an address at the evening hour by Secretary of the Navy Josephus Dsiiiels. Bishop Darlington proavl e 1 from the text iu Matthew L'li:".';, "It had been good for that man if he had not been born." His theme was the opportunities which Judas had in the fellowship of his Lord, and his failure to take advantage f these wonderful opportunities. He-was heard by a congregation which over flowed the large church building. In beginning his address to the Con ference Sunday evening Secretary Danii Is said that he had long coveted the privi lege of preaching to preachers and his op portunity had now arrived. He urged his hearers to stick to the plain preii-hiug for which Methodism had been lifted iu its early days. Secretary Daniels said in part : "The World Is My Parish." "North Croliua Methodists last week established the fact' 'hat they are true to the spirit of early Methodism when by a unanimous vote they went ou re- ord as favoring the league of nations im r, i r.-.t ed as part of the treaty of peace. Preach ing inainlv to men denied the Hdvanraire of eduentlo.i and travel, Mr. Wesley". slogan was: 'The world is my parish.' He himself preached to the Indians iu America and made plans along Pauliiu lines so the Gospel should be preacl e l by Methodists to the ends of the e.'rt'i. The vision of a parish bounded only l.y the horizon is the Bible command: ' Go ye into all the world.'

Hour of Peace Has Come. "The hour has struck. For the first time in nineteen hundred years the na tions of the earth, inspired by Ameri can example, have united to fulfill the mission for which Christ came upon earth that peace should smile uinm every por tion of it. For this Christain men and women have hoped and longed and pray ed since the star shone in Bethlehem and the angels sang ieace on earth; good will toward men.' It is the tragedy of tragedies that men of learning have so long listened to the jarring voices of war that they are deaf to the compelling voice of the Prince of Peace. But let us re joice that our ears and the ears of most I of the world are attuned to hear and that we rejoice in the approach of the day for which all other days were but the prelude the day when nations will make war no more. It heartened all men who believe with Joubert: There are two jiowers that govern the world force and right. Force must rule until right is ready.

Take a dose of the dangerous drug tonight and tomorrow you lose a day. Calomel is mercury ! When it comes into contact with sour bile, it crashes in to it, breaking it up. Then is when you feel that awful nai sea ami emmping. If you are sluggish, if i . er is torpid and bowels coir .tipated or you have a head ache, dizziness, coated tongue, if breath is bad or stomach sour, just try a bpoon ful of harmless Dodson's Liver Tone to night. Here's my guarantee C'O to any drug store and g t n bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone for a few cenrj. Take a spoonful and if it doesn't straighten you right up and make you feel fine and vigorous, go l.ai k to the store and get jour money. Dodson's Liver Toue is destroying the sale of calomel because it cuu not sali vate or make yu sick. Adv. GASTON'S COTTON CROP Well Informed Men, in Cloae Touch With Local Cotton Sit uation, Say County Will Produce 9,000 Bales This Year. Despite the unfavorable season and the gloomy predictions of a month ago as a consequence thereof those who keep iu close touch with the cotton situation express the opinion that Gaston's crop this j-enr will bo well up with the average for the past five years. In fact one well posted man sa.vs that the crop in this countj" will go to 9,o00 bales. Some of the more optimistic say IO.11110 to 12,000. A little "figuring" on this subject produces interesting results. Cotton is bringing say o."i cents per ound. This figure is taken for convenience sake, for as a matter of tact the price has ranged recently from a quarter to a half a cent above that figure. At Ho cents a 500 pound bale brings $17o.m. Thirty-three bushels of seed to the bale at the present price of ll.Jo per bushel, adds $'i7.95 to this, bring the total receipts up to $212. 9o. At this figure it.uou bales would bring in $ 1 ,!Ufi"0.0. In short Gaston farmers will receive this year for their cotton crop $2.0(hi.miiii.iih. Which is not so bad, after all. considering the fact that it is just about an average year for cot ton.
