Jacobs, who has been pastor of the Presbyterian church at Clinton for 47 years, b$.s signified his 1ntention of resigning his pastorate on account of the infirmities due to old age and the work that he is doing as head of the orphanage, of which he is the founder. Such a step should cause all good men to stop and reflect, and at the eame time thank God for the life and *work of a man like Dr. Jacobs. He is now eeventy-three years old. Dur ing these years he has done a good deal for the good of shumanity. He has demonstrated to the world what pure religion is .as defined by the Apostle James:, "Pure religion and undeffled before God . and the Father, it this. To visit the fatherless and the widows in their afflictioni, and to keep bimself unspotted . from the -worlId." NJot only should we thank the Lord flar the good that-he has done, but we boo:ld let him know while he Is yet witk us, that we bold him In honor and *love.~. After all what Is life? By what standar~d is It measured? Not by the standards that are used by many peo ple, ishould be measured' by the de votion and eonsecratki of one's lift to the service of his Lord and Mester, and by the good that fhe has done for those who most needed his help, and .who needs. It more than do the or phang and the widows? We pause to extend congratulations to this man of God, and to express the hope that even down to old age he may experience the covereignl, eternal, unchangeable love of our Father who art in Heaven.

Lexington Wants it. Lexington Dispatch. The Charleston-Asheville automdle highway should come by Lexington. This is by far the most feasible route and the Lexington members of the au tomobile association should use their best efforts to secure the road, which is already practically assured.

Besides, ILxington \.has one of the most com plete and up-to-date automobile shops in the State, an aavantage over the other route. .AN ORDINAN~CE BEGULATINIG THE SALE OF KILE IN THE TOWN OF -' NEWBEREY.
