ship Ood with their gifts also.
When children are not trained to
give as a part of worship, need it
be a matter of surprise that as ac
tive members in later years they
attempt to worship Him without
an offering. As training is neces
sary in securing regular attend
ance, so training must not be for
gotten that the future generation
may be lacking in no part of wor
ship. We wish the congregation
abundant success in this new de
parture and long for the time when
more congregations will incorpor
ate both of these ideas in their
plans for Christian service.
Rev. D. P. T. Crickenberger, for
merly serving most acceptably in
the Virginia Synod, has been in
bis new held at DuBois, Pa., since
February 14, 1901, where the cor
diality with which he was greeted
by his people has extended through-
out the year. His work has borne
fruitful results in 27 accessions to
the congregation—nearly all of the
new members being heads of fami
lies and prominent citizens—with
two catechetical classes numbering
39 members now under instruction,
and confirmations among them to
take place at Easter. Many ex
pressions of good will have been
shown Pastor Ciickenberger. Twice
has the congregation made him do
nations of considerable value in
substantials and at Christmas the
oouncil made him a very handsome
gift On New Year’s day the con
gregation met and voted an increase
of $100 in his salary, to take effect
January 1st—all done unanimously
and without previous knowledge
or solicitation of the pastor. Such
evidences of appreciation, together
with the existence of unity and
harmony in the congregation, make
much for the welfare of the Mas
ter’s cause.

Rockingham Pastorate, Va.
Dear Visitor:—A word from the
Rockingham pastorate may be of
Interest to your many readers. The
past year has been one of some
degree of success in the Master’s
work. There have been accessions
to tlie membership in all the con
gregations, and the people are
growing in piety and cburcblinese.
Frieden’s and Bridgewater Sun
day-schools held very appropriate
Christmas services. On Christmas
eve the Bridgewater Sunday-school,
under the leadership of Prof. Hul-
vey, the superintendent, and the
pastor’s wife, held a very interest
ing service, consisting of songs and
recitations appropriate to the sea
son—a real churchly service. The
Christmas packages for each scholar
were uniform. The church was
beautifully and tastefully deco
rated.
On the day after Christmas Frie
den’s Sunday school held a service
under the j nnt direction of the
Reformed and Lutheran superin
tendents, Mr. Turner Craun and
Bro. S T Shank Here there were
two beautiful trees laden with gifts
—a good treat for each scholar
tastefully arranged. The school
rendered a service issued by one of
our publication houses, and the
Lutheran and Reformed pastors
made short talks.
On New Year’s night the Worn
an’s Missionary Society of Frie
den’s congregation held a public
meeting, the younger members de
livering recitations and reading
essays on missions The music was
furnished by a special trained choir
under the direction of Pqpf. White-
sell. The collection amounted to
$7.
The pastor has been remembered
by these kind people who know
how to take care of their pastor.
St. John’s and Freiden’s congrega
tions presented the pastor with a
very fine suit of clothes—a very
handsome Christmas present in
deed May God bless these kind
donors and give them a prosperous
New Year from beginning to end.
Unity and concord abide with us
and there is harmony between pas
tor and people. We have a class
of catecheumens ready for con-
grmation at Easter.
Yours fraternally,
W. B. Oney.

Features of Interest.
There are two features of interest
in the three additions to the roll
this week. One is the liberal gifts
of the pastors, and the other is the
voice from St. Martin’s, a shep-
berdless flock. The indications are
that with the opening of the year
there is an awakening of interest in
this cause among the churches not
yet enrolled. We have the promise
of reports from various quarters.
Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to core deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by au intlaiued ren
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachin Tube When this tube is in
flamed yon have a rumbling sound or
impertect hearing, and when it is en
tirely closed Deafness is the result,
and nnless the inflammation can be
taken ont and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be 'de
stroyed forever. Nine cases ont of ten
are caured by Catarrh, which is noth
ing but an inflamed condition of the
mneous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars,

O. M. Jamieson, Newberry, 8. C.,
announce a closing ont of $40,000 worth
of choice merchandise. Jamieson has
decided to make a change in the busi
ness ; hence the necessity to close out
the entire stock AT cost. Never in the
history of Newberry has such a choice,
selection of goods been thrown on the
market This bona fide cost sale af
fords everybody an opportunity to buy
splendid goods at sacrifice prices.
