The following article by Rqv Liifus
13. Compton, editor of the Iew Teata
nent Christian, appeared' in . the O
tober number of th'at paper and will
doubtless be of interest to our readers:
At the. elose of Eliada On hanage
Camp-meeting the editor, Rev. .. M.
- SUkeleather, and Prof. Durham; the
singing evangelist, went t9 Pickens for
a two weeks' meeting. We rented a
large tent whihh seated fourteen hun
dired people, and came to this place,
by the invitation of a number of the
laymen and eltizons of this country, to
proclaim the Full Gospel.
- I was permitted to spend only ten
- days with these people last year and
promised them, God willing, I would re
turn again.
Pickens, the county seat of Pickens
county, is located among the beautiful
foot-hills of the Blue Ridge Mountains,
and is inhabited by as noble-hearted
people as ever lived. Many of them
have not had the advantages that others
have had; but the marys of nobility can
be seen upon them in almost every home.
From the very first service, the at
tondance averaged from 800 to 2,000
people at night, and at a number of day
services, ' especially when special sub
jects were announced, the tent was
fAirly well filled. From the beginning,
the Presence of the Lord was mani
fested in bringing deep conviction. The
people would sit and listen for an hour
or an hour and a half to the songs and
messages. -and then seem to be disap
pointed when the speaker would stop.
Most of the denominations, of that
' part of the country were represented in
the meetings; although very few of the
preachers attended. In fact, there are
not very many living in that section. 1
do not remember having ministered to
a more .appreciative, hungry-hearted
audience. The behavior was the best I
have ever known for a tabernacle meet
ing. The people came to hear the Word.
Many professed faith in Christ, and a
large number of Christians bowed at
the altar of prayer for consecration and
to receive the Holy Spirit. We ditj not
count the number of professions, but
each evening, the front f the tent
around the altar was crowded, and we
believe the meeting meant as much to
the Lord's children in seeing their priv
ideges in Christ, and the possibilities of
the Gospel as any other one thing.
I have had quite a test for three
months with my throat and an unnatural
hiinreness. Part of the t ime it seemed
! would be compelled to give up speak
ing; but this hungry hearted people got
hold of G;od for me, and at the close of
" the meeting, muy voice was much better
than when I began.

WIG AT PICKENS
kuowa-a plaeiefore Where they brought
the prisoners from the jail into a re
l giousservice; but this man hus the
respect of all his prisoners, and he told
me he could trust them to go to church
and ceme back even if he was not with
theme .I said to some of the authorities
of the city'that if I am ever so unfor
tunate as to get in jail, I want them to
send me to Pickens, South Carolina,
where my jailer will let me go to church
and have the privilege of divine worship.
I dftust say God did bless Pickens in a
special way through our humble minis
try and several hundreds manifested
their interest an(d acknowledgement of
the truth, by accepting Jesus Christ as
their Saviour, and equally as many
Christians yielded themselves to God
for consecration.
Prof. Durham played a great part in
this meeting through his proficiency in
song and by his spirituai life.
My old time friend S. M. Stikeleather
who went with me as my assistant was
used of the Lord in\ a special way both
in prayer, song, preaching and caring
for the tent. Our dear Bro. D. J. Fant,
the railroad engineer that God has so
marvelously used throughout the coun
try when he is not on his engine, came
from Atlanta for three days, and preach
ed for us several times. Bro. Pant was
the man who first started these special
meetings in Pickens, and we were de
lighted to have him and his good wife
with us for the latter part of the meet
ing.
The people of this town are plinning
for another meeting next year; but it
will require a larger tabernacle, one that
will at least seat two thousand pebple,
and even this will not be large enough.
It is a delight and a privilege to preach
to a people so hungry for the truth that
they are willing to listen to the Word
both day and night . some came from
fifteen and twenty miles away, and I
am sure there will he verified in their
lives the promise of Gqd. "Blessed are
they who hunger and thirst after right
cousness for they shall be flied."
Let the New Testament Christian
family pray for tlhe people at Pickens, I
because God has begun a noble work in
that country, and when we all meet in
the air at the I arriage Supper, I am
confident we will meet some people from
Pickens that our Lord brought to Himself
through this meeting. This is the hope
of our ministry that among all, we might
save some.

One of your most pressing prob
lems and one to be acted upon without
delay, is the matter of obtaining your
fertilizer.
In spite of the best efforts of the
- manufacturers and the Government,
- materials for making fertilizers are
scarce and high in price. Therefore,
it is all the more necessary that what
fertilizers are to be distributed, should
be used upon soil that has received the
very best preparations the fr.rmer is
capable of giving.
'rhe mobilization of our al'my, re
<(iuiring a maximum movement of
troap trains and supply trains, has ov
er-taxed the capacity of our railroads
as never before, -and in order for fer.
tilizers to be distriulated this season,
the movement musi of necessity, be
gin early and the unloading of cars
at destination be done' with utmost
despatch. livery car must h' loaded
to capacity.
Today fertilizers are cheaper than
frmtni crops or farm labor. A bale of
cotton, a bushel of corn, oats or
wheat, will buy more pounds of fertil
izers pow than ever before, hence to
assure the performance of a patriotic
duty, with great profit to yourself, or
dcr your fertilizers promptly so that
you may be sure to get then. And
when uti get them, use them with
the greatest. degree of intelligence.
Satisfactory results are bound to fol.
