BtlTttDAY AT BRICK CHURCH
A. R P. '? Big Centennial at Wiattt*
boro Last Wwk
Wlnnsboro. Special.? yhe centen
_t?i?l exardses of the A. R. P. synod
were hold Saturday. All business uiat
ter? and committee reports were side
trucked for theBe exercises. The exer
claes were aa a birthday celebration,
aud everything was in commemoration
of the orgsuizatiou of the synod In the
Old Brick churyh 10? years ago. It ia
a historical occasion and the
I'lvgrammc that has been arranged la
lust such a one as is fitting for such
an. occasion. The exercises Saturday
monpt&g were presided over jar Rev,
^r. Mx Hunter. Before introducing the
tegular speakers for this occasion he
made a. short address ?in which he paid
a glowing tribute to ithe wives of Cue
miniature v. ho have served the A. R. P.
church in its 100 years' history. The
aucpess of the synod is due to the roin
iKtors wives no le&it than to the minis
ter* .themselves. As great as may be
the sacrifices of the minister who goes
out to serve his faster in* new fields,
?e sacrifices of the wife who goes with
him are certainly -no leas. It Is she who
attends to tho endless details of the
nbrne* while he Is about, his pastoral
duties and feeding upon the fat pf'Che
Jpnd- She Js tjie-- wonderful manager
who makes ends meet on a smnll sal
ary. She is the diplomat who stands be
tween her husband and his ftoca in
many of the details of church work.
Afj the wc&kej; vessel, she bears the
heavier burden, She la the Uncrowned
queen. There is need for a centennial
rtjlume recounting, not only the deeds
of the ministers but also of one. that,
recounts the sacrifices end the Services
of v the noble Christian? women who
have contributed .so largely to the fluc
ceaji of tho church. ** " ?
The next address on the programme
was that of;Rev. J. C. Galloway, who
spoke of the organization of the "8e
cede'r" church. He told d T its first or
ganization in Scotland, and secession
froth tha established church of Scot
land. This secession was because of
doctrinal d i ff ere nce^^Fro in the SefcodCr
church of Scotland' WBte" formed the As
sociate Reformed church In America,
first embracing both north and south.
Wlftat was Kjfpwxi as the Carolina
synods of this 'church finally separated
txom the church in the north and form
ed tho. A. R. y. church of the son th,
which held.lts/flvst synod at the Bl'lck
church in thlaicounty. This organiza
tion has grow# to its present propo1'
tsons and has Churches from Virginia
to Texas and uj&ssions In Mexico.
