Pat McBrayer, Buford Williams, James and Asbury playwd baseball on South Washing ton street where Dr. Tom Gold now Uvea? Paul Webb would fool a base runner with an Irish potato?

When Orlando Elam rode a gray mule In a tournament here? The Judges asked him how many gaits his steed had? His reply. 17 gates and a pair of draw bars.

When the Southern railway nan mixed trains, and Mack Wilkins was hurt and Leroy Grigg killed In a wreck at the river? From A. M. G., a letter; "You have mighty little about the chore ties of Shelby. Why not more?" Difficult to say, sir Certainly It is not Intentional. Church matters, too, offer a touchy subject. Some church people, and It is sad that It Is so, always think, the other .denomination gets the most mention. From the time this colyum first hit town until now, we have been accused of belonging to everything from the Ku Klux Klan to the* Catholic church. Actually we belong to neither—and very few things In between—yet the day 1ms not yet come when this department can see anything In any one's religion or denomination deserving of criticism. Every man to his belief, and if he te satisfied and content, why Should others not be? Those church Items we do know (others will be welcomed, though no sarcastic shots or criticism of any church will be noticed): Of a near score towns and cities In which we have lived or existed, not. a one has a better church attendance or more reverence In such things than Shelby. Yet If everyone who should would attend church in Shelby, the audi toriums of all the churches would have to be enlarged. In Clyde Hoey Shelby has one of America’s greatest and most in spiring Bible class teachers. Class close to him Clint Newton, a gentleman through and through, unfortunate as he may have been In health. There are nowhere In the city three more estimable gentlemen than the three retired Methodist circuit riders, J. E. Thompson, C. E. Sherrill, and J. W. Ingle. Rev. John W. Buttle, still In harness, has behind him a record of serving humanity and his Maker that surpasses. In value, the record of many hereabouts in public life. John R. Dover’s expressed belief in church and Sunday school has been an iptegral factor in the mill villages which skirt Shelby. Rev. U B. Hayes, Dr. Zeno Wall. Rev. H. N. McDlarmid, Rev. 1* L. Jessup, Rev. R. L. Forbis, Rev. D. F. Putnam, Rev. H. E. Waldrop, Rev. Q, P. Abernethy and other ministers about the city and Us suburbs mean much more to the real progress of the section than they are given credit for. More anon of the churches and church life of the city as interesting Items connected thereto are learned.
