We received a copy of the Lincoln Times, published at Lincolnton, N.

Charlie's picture looked as if he had just been chased by a bull dog, but this look was probably caused by the excitement of strange surroundings and the experience of facing the camera while the man made the exposure An article in another column written by Mr. Coker of Hartsville is timely, and we hope our farmer readers will read it and ^^think oVQerthe^ings he says in a busy time with other tarm work. Mr. Coker stresses the loss to the corn but stops befoie saying anything about the cost nf loKnr n .uuui. ruuuci usuany costs about what it is worth to get it into the bam, and we have the great loss of corn thrown in for good measure. _ It is far better to grow hay and let the fodder alone. Yes, you need it for feed, but you can have good peavine hay just as cheap, and then you will have at least twenty per cent more corn. Prepare now to substitute hay for fodder. If you are not yet convinced of the wisdom of this course, "by all means make uu wAf/*=niiiem on your own farm this year by leaving an acre or too with the fodder on. Then measure the^corn from an acre where the fodder was pulled and convince yourself that fodder pulling is worse than doing nothing. Below is one of the reports of a dance in paris last week, and we pass it on to you without comment: "A notable feature of the affair was the latest Parisian craze for inmy tulle skirts with charmeuse tunics. A number of the dancers wore these gowns, whose transparency reveals hose of spider web texture of darker hue than the skirt to make them stand out in relief. The general result is to give a much more undraped effect than if the wearefs appeared in uncovered silk fleshings, and when under the big chandelier the entire figure was revealed in perfect outline from throat to foot. "Quite a number of men sat around the ballroom admiring ' '* me wuuien s ngures instead of going outside for cooling beverages. 44The women were either . pleased with such marked atten- < tion or were unconconscious of J the way their charms were being ? discussed as they floated past in diaphanous draperies." 1 IfViT?i<"T'' " Marriage and Other News Notes from Dudley Mr. W. E. Funderburk, of Monroe, N. C., visited his parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Funderburk, and attr nded church here Sunday. The Baraca and Philathia classes were pleasantly entertained at the home of Mr. F. B. Funderburk Saturday night, ice cream and cake being served as 'refreshments. The three mission study classes, like which have been organized in a number of the churches over the association, finished the fourth chapter Sunday. One of the sections of the class considered it a privilege to have Rev. B. S. Funderburk. meet with them and tell of his pers ex perience in work of this character. The B. Y. P. U. has for some time been reorgnaized. The membership is small, but all seem to be " interested. They had the pleasure of listening to an interesting talk by the pastor Sunday night. The Dudley Sunday school has revived considerable interest in its work by adding The Bap tist Teacher, Kind Words and Baptist Boys and Girls to the regularly used literature. Miss Alice Threatt, of Oklahoma City, is visiting friends and relatives in this communitv To the very pleasant surprise of triends in this community Miss Nannie Jones,of Cross Hill, former teacher of the Dudley school, returned Sunday evening to again live in our midst the happy bride of Mr. Bethel Plyler. A number of friends and relatives were invited to await the arrival of the happy couple. They then enjoyed a bountiful supper. Mrs. Edna V. Funderderburk was among'the number from here who were present at the marriage at the bride's home at Cross Hill, which took place about noon. They will make "isis 'ifloiE fliri them a prosperous voyage ove t the matrimonial sea. F List Of Candidates.

C.J Ashcraft, of Monroe gave us one r of the best lectures on "The Touch of a Friendly hand," w#1 have been priviledged to hear ih 1 a time. It was so good, so sim-r pic a child could understand ami j yet so practical and purdfyj religious. May God bless the \ message to the good of each and every heart present. We long to have Bio. Ashcraft come again. " Then saith he unto his disciples, the harvest truly is plenteous, but the laborers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth laborers into his harvest," Matt, 8. Would it not be a good thing and well pleasing in His sight for us to obey the above? There are many things we are not quiet sure about when it comes to praying, but in this we are sure our Lord said "Pray ye," to whom? Lord (owner) oi the harvest, that He w ill semi them. Men are today, in view ui the lack of more young men to enter the ministry, giving this reason and the other reason for young men not giving their lives to the service of our Christ. But the key to the whole situation is that we as christians are failing to do just what God said j for us to do. Let us try the Lord of the harvest and see if he will not send us young men until there , shall not be room in our colleges and semenarics to accommodate thorn 1 "The Jesns^wa^^^he bestj^ (ninj^penainins to r the church and kingdom. Not only do we need more and better preachers but we need consecrated laymen, who are ready 5 and willing to enter the fields s that are already ripe to harvest. Jesus is calling, will you respond by saying, "here am 1, send me?" Next Sunday Taxahaw 11 a. m. White Plains 3:30 p. m. Choir practice Pageland Wednesday evening 8:30. Who Is i W. F. Stevenson Mr. W. F. Stevenson, who is running for congress iti this district, has been engaged in some great litigation. lie was employed t).v the attorney gen eral to assist in the prosecution of the dispensary grafters. We will refer to onjy one of the great trials of thai series. This was held at Chester. Solicitor Henry was sick, but Mr. McLure acted fur him, with credit to Mmself and to the entire satisfaction of the attorney general. Mr. 1>. L. Abney was also for the State. The defense presented a brilliant array of counsel: Weston & Aycock, R. H.Welch, M. P. Howell, A. L. Gaston, John M. Wise and Nelson, Nelson & Gettys. Mr. W. (). Guy was foreman of the jury and J. M. Wilson, J. W. Taylor, John Fstes, Alex Fraser, F. !m. Hough, W. 11. Caldwell,; J.N. Calvin and J. W. Suitman i were the jury. , It had been affirmed that they , would not convict on the evi dence of the coconspirators. 1 They should be enrolled on the roll of honor No such plea L controlled them. The trial lasted a week. The case was ably ' argued on all sides. Mr. Stev- 1 enson dosed for the State and his argument has been more talked of than any other he has | ever made, lint merely because of the occasion and result Mr. black was convicted, and sub-J 2 4"* >5 /fc ? >e [juently pardoned. The corgi wondent of the News & Courtjrlsaid of the argument: "AtStevenso 1 made what Mpeen commented on as probjMPxthe the most powerful addfj?8 heard in the court house bipsft 4n years. Sharp, keen, inasiye^rrowding a world of facts ffljjfefa small compass and marshading them with wonderful gi tfMSralship, adhering tothe issue a^d^xposing the guilt/' ^J&C'Chester Reporter said: ^rjPhiefe were some magnificent nggfeites in the graft cases last Wjbek* but the public is agreed tnjft is was the intensely forceful 9&|?h of Mr. Stevenson, perhaps, more than any other, that o^jide the canviction of Black tatigfote, Mr. Stevenson ftmottrsed the evidence tern by Rfm. There was not a hiece or parcel missing. His irony went true to the mark and laid bare the rottenness." ! Isn't there rottenness to be exposed in Washington? Do we want ability there?
