Large Crowds Heard Eloquent
Messages by Pastor Everett
Sunday. .'-
A great amount of interest is be
ing shown in the series of sermons
that Pastor Everett, of the Free Will
Baptist church, has been delivering
this month. Quite a large crowd was
in attendance at both services Sun
day, especially the evening. Sunday
morning Mr. Everett spoke on the
"Individuality of Duty," and what,
was perhaps, one of the most notable
features of the service was the great
earnestness of the speaker, as he so
impressively pointed out the various
duties of the individual church mem
ber. It was a very important mes
sage, and one that received the hear
ty approbation of many of those
present.
At the evening service, Mr. Ever
ett used for his subject, "Hindrances
to Prayer," or "Why our prayers are
unanswered." This was universally
pronounced as being one of the best
sermons ever listened to. The speak
er was very emphatic in his asser
tions of the different reasons of un
answered prayer, using as positive
proofs, some vital point of God's
word. Mr. Everett was seemingly
at his best, and from all indications,
the message was effective throughout,
and one that will not soon fade from
the memory of those present, espec
ially those who have been allowing
some of the things mentioned in the
sermon to stand between them and
their God.
Next Sunday morning Mr. Ever
ett will speak on "A Forward Look."
At the evening hour the subject will
be "Answers to Prayer." These ser
vices will close the series of sermons,
and are expected to be of great in
tesest and importance. Special effort
has been made to make this day the
very best yet in consecrated service
for the Master, and the presence and
co-operation of each member of the
church is expected, while strangers
and visitors are always made to feel
at home.

Daily Morning Train From Wil
mington May be Restored Be
fore February 4.
A few weeks ago the 'officials of
the Atlantic Coast Line Railway Com
pany announced that on the fourth
of February, the passenger train
which has been running on a tri
weekly schedule between New Bern
and Wilmington for about two years,
would be changed to a daily schedule.
During the past few days it has been
rumored here that the daily schedule
"will be put into effect before this date,
however, no official information to
this effect has been given out, and the
information is merely a rumor. Some
are of the opinion, however, that the
report has some foundation. .
A short time after the beginning of
the European war, thev daily service
on this branch of the Coast Line was
changed to a tri-weekly., Persistent
efforts have been made by commercial
organizations here and in Wilmington,
to have the daily service resumed but
not until a few weeks ago did they
agree to do it. . j. '

TO LOAN ON IMPROVED CITY PROPERTY (IN NEW
BERN) ONLY
The Equitable Life Assurance Society, under its home purchase
plan, is prepared to make loans from $1 ,000 to $5,000 on homes on
a ten-year repayment plan.
ILLUSTRATION : Let us assume that the owner of a home and
property worth four or five thousand dollars or more has a mortgage
of $2,000 to replace. Let us assume that he can secure money at 6
per cent and that the loan-will be paid off in ten years time. This is a
big assumption, in view of the fact that few men who do not enter in
to some systematic repayment plan ever pay off the mortgage on
their homes. If the mortgage is not paid off, it is necessary to obtain
a new loan, through the ordinary channels, for either a three or five- .
year period, (and this is sometimes hard to do.) We will now as
sume that $1 ,000 of this loan will be repaid at trie end of five years,
and that the rate of interest was 6 per cent. The transaction will
have been as follows:
ORDINARY MORTGAGE:
Interest on $2,000 6 per cent for five years ($120 per
year) will amount to . $ 600.00
At the end of the first five years pay off one-half the
principal, renewing the balance for five years $1,000.00 '
Interest for the Second five year period 6 per cent
($60.00 per year) will be $ 300.00
And then pay off the remainder of the principal $1,000.00
$ 240.00
Total of principal and interest paid $2,900.00
Remember the above is a 6 per cent transaction on the five-year
loan term, and that it can be renewed for another five-year period.
Whenever a loan is renewed more frequently or a higher rate of in-
terest is paid than 6 per cent the cost will be higher.
Under the Home Purchase Plan which not only loans the money,
but insures the life of the borrower during the period, the transaction
is as follows : - v'i j
HOME PURCHASE PLAN: "
(Applicant's age 30) Monthly payments (on a loan of
$2,000) of $26.40 or twelve monthly installments
each year, amounting to $ 316.80
Making a total in ten years of $3,168.00
Ueduct the cash surrender value or the lite insurance
policy
Leaving the actual amount paid, principal, interest and
insurance $2,928.00
Annual dividends are paid upon that portion of the monthly in-,
stallments representing the life insurance premiums. This will fur-:
ther reduce the net cost of the plan as shown above.
There is a still greater advantage in the Home Purchase Plan, in .
that in the event of the death of the mortgagee before the expiration ,
of the ten-year loan period, the mortgage is cancelled and the home is
left entirely free of debt. In addition, whatever amount has been re-1
paid on account of the principal is paid to the family in cash. -
I would be glad to talk the matter over with you. ,,. .
Yours Very Truly, i
