Exercises Attended by a Large Crowd Last Sunday. A laifte concourse of people gath ered at Rehoboth Sunday to witness the dedicatory exercises. The dedi catory sermon was preached by Rev. \V. R. Potter, of the Limestone Pres byterian church of this city, and was notable for its forcefulness and clear ness. Mr. Potter chose as his text: Math. 16:18, “Upon this rock I will build my church and the gates of hell (hades) shall not prevail against it.” He said, in part, that we live in a world of change and decay; that all material things must pass away, but that there was one thing that should endure all the ravages of time—the church of the living God—the re deemed of Christ. He explained that Christ meant by the expression, “this rock,” himself, or the truth contained in Peter’s no ble confession. He then spoke at length on the security of the church, stressing the truth that all the pow ers of darkness and all the forces of evil and all the hosts of sin and Satan would not be able to overcome it. He exhorted his hearers to fight under the blue banner of the cross rather than under the red flag of Satan; to become members of the true church and let their light shine. Considering the great crowd and number of children in the audience the attention given the speaker was excellent. After the sermon the church was set apart to the worship of God by scripture reading and prayer. At the conclusion of the morning services recess was taken. A long table had been erected at the rear of the church and the good women in attendance began to load it down with good things. To the uniniti ated it looked as if there was plenty and to spare, and while we did not hear of anyone going away hungry, the manner in which that dinner dis appeared indicated that if the gather ing was as hungry for the bread of life as they were for the good things that pleases the palate and fill the in ner man they were indeed a hungry set. In a very short while it looked as if a cyclone had struck the table, but the smiling countenances and the good nature displayed was evidence of the fact that everybody was satis fied with the cyclone. At the conclusion of the dinner the congregation reassembled. The af ternoon program was an informal one. Rev. W. R. Potter presided. Short talks were made by Rev. Mr. Felmet, J. L. Strain, Mr. S. F. Parrott, editor of The Cherokee News, Mr. W. Sam Lipscomb, Mr. W. E. M. Kirby, and Rev. L. R. Gaines and others. All of these addresses were apt, to the point and mixed with humor. The speakers praised the people for their generosity in erecting this substan tial church building and encouraged them to continue the good work which they had begun in that pros perous and well ordered community. Renew Your Card at the Library. Tne trustees of the Gaffney Library Association desire to call attention to the expiration of the annual term for which cards have been Issued and to urge upon all of the old members the importance of a prompt renewal of membership. This is easy of ac complishment, the library is conven iently located in the city hall, the li brarian. Miss Moorman, is on duty every afternoon from three until six o’clock, and all that is necessary is to call, pay her one dollar and secure a card carrying with it all of the privileges of the library for one year. It is important that we have money to sustain the enterprise and surely our citizens will aid us in this effort, by paying the small sum of one dollar each year. There are now over one thousand volumes on our shelves. The books have been ju diciously selected, covering a wide range of thought and embracing works of reference, history, biogra phy, science, religion, fiction and po etry, to which may he added numer ous magazines and periodicals, and we believe no library in the State of fers greater advantages for so small an outlay on the part of its members, especially when we remember that the association has just passed its first birthday. Generous patrons have donated rare old books, which can not now be obtained from publishers, and we are persuaded that others will emulate their example. Friends, place these volumes in the library where all of our people can enjoy them. A large consign ment of new books has just been re ceived and many of the most popular vorks, purchased at a large expendi ture of money, are offered to all citi zens of Cherokee county in return for a mere pittance.
