The old house is dese: now, no one living there. The church buiMing at St. I thews was completely blown a some years ago when a hurric struck that section of the cou but another building was erected , now there is a large membership the congregations are always h and are intelligent. When we arri the service had begun, and young John Stuck was telling of his exp ences in going over seas and a he landed. The service was a h< coming welcome service to the I who had served in the army f: this section. It was a joint ser for the Methodist and Lutta churches, but the Rev. Mr. Ma: the Mehodist pastor, was absent account of sickness in his fan and the service was in charge of Rev. Enoch Hite, the Lutheran ] tor. Mr. Stuck is not a membei this church, but is from the comir ity. He told a very interesting true story of his experiences fi the time he was shipped at New Y until the sigifing of the armist Ee did not get into the fighting was not ordered to the front u about ten days before the armis was signed, but at that time he ' ir? on/1 nrrmriH Verdun where til was some heavy fighting. He gav very interesting and well told count of his experiences and it ? listened to with much interest by large congregation present, t knew thaatfoung man as one of tl boys, which added to the intei they had in the story. And thei is always interesting to be told such experiences as one has in v ?o? / President S. J. Derrick of N berry college was present and spoke and made a very strong ; thoughful address.

This section of the county is original home of the Hendersons i the Cromers and the Subers and Dickerts and Eargles and the Le seys and the Bundricks and the W ers and the Davidsons and m more good people. On the ret trip Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Folk sisted that we should detour 10 half mile and go in by his home get some watermelons and cai loupes, he said there was no one home but that we would find ' | fruit on the piazza. Well, we w and there it was in abundance, we loaded up with a few melons cantaloupes. Mr. Folk lives jus half mile off the Asheford's fe road. The house is fronting one the most magnificent groves of o 1 + in clTlQ IllCliUricd tiiciu juu win uuu lii county. He has all the modern c veniences in the house and a mod country place. If Mr. Folk will ] mit a suggestion, I would say t if he would just give that house or two coats of good white paint would have one of the handson L places in the county. It would cost him much and after he has d it he would wonder why he had painted many years ago. There nothiner that adds so much to prosperous appearance of a cour as the use of a little paint. There have been several : houses put up along this road si we were last down this side and t look prosperous. The crops are \ good.

E, H. A. Baptist $75,000,000 Campaign. Rev. R. H. Burris and G. R. Petti- j ' grew recently returned from Colum- 1 | bia where they attended a conference j of South Carolina Baptists in the in- j | terest of the Southwide campaign for j ! $75,000,000. This campaign was j | launched at the annual meeting of ; ; the Southern Baptist convention in J ! Atlanta, and the conference in Co- j : lumbia dealt with the work and 1 : means of pressing the movement in ! this State, whose quota is $5,500,000. | The funds are to be used for mis-; sions, Christian education, ministerial education and relief, hospitals, orph- j anages, etc. A thorough organization is being vapidly effected, that is designed to reach and enlist every member of ; every Baptist church in the South within the next five months, cuminating in an eight-day drive from November 30th to December 7th. The pledges will cover a period of five ! years. It is a great undertaking but with i 3,000,000 Baptist behind it, success | should be assured. The war has made us all think in larger terms and so I denomination after denomination is j launching large fiscal enterprises in ; the interest of Christian benevolence.
