A 1 VOL. XII?NO. 18. LAST CALL F ; S. Wednesday, May G, ltt.'JG uvtTy j n ? 11 - A * Drtpusi irom tu<> Mountain to the Sea Coast of Smith Carolina is called*"to meet in your Annual State Convention to bo held in the St. Paul Baptist church, Laurens S. C. Dr. H. W. D. Stewart, pastor. The purpose nf thig-rnll in mul- i tifold. The first and most important is to. assemble Christians from every section of this StaU to wait for a Spiritual Enduement. from on high. To get- a renew ol our marching orders. To lift up - Jesus-until? the? Ptfrdntmir.-'shhlT" ~ take knowledge that th?> men as. sembltxJ have been with Jesus. . Again our President has asked along uyth the members of our Executive Board that we bring a long the small sum cf ten thousand ($10,000.00) xlollars for th. ' support of our Colleges, Sunday Schools, State, Home, Foreign Mis sions, Our aged ministers and widows?Never before have'Baptist* _ beenso awakened as today to the calls of the Master to stretch the border lines of Zion, so that this promises to be one cf the largest sessions in point of attendance in many years. Of intorest will he tlip the office of Recording Secretary now held by the Re.v., S, C. Campbell. (Dynamb). Contesting for this position against the Rev. Mr. Campbell are the Rev. A. M. Means, of Spartanburg, the popular pastor of the Macedonia Baptist church of that city artd th Rev. L. C. Jenkins, pastor of th ? Union Baptist " church <T~T" Columbia and clerk of'the historic Gdthesemano Baptist association. All of these distinguished Christian gentlemen are well qualified by experience and training ti fill the position so n order to get it over and settled, the writer nominates them all and may th; best man win. "The. Rev. MF" Mean's friends contend that Broth er Dynamo has too many offices and should come down and since he has served as Asst. Secretary should be elected as chief seere tary. The friends of" The Rev. Mr. ?Jenkins are saying that Brother Steve in the Gethesemane association pledged to retire in favor of Brother Jenkins and had them endorse him for the office. They ^ are offering their candidate . not only on ^>asis of his efficiency 4 for the office hot also upon the /vf !},.??I H-.ll - ^ V* UlUUIVl tiiiijJLJi/ii tl) j rosign in his favor and work for his election. Brother Ca?v,l?,M s*'"s "l ,?" re-elected L. C. Jenkins is my choice for assistant." He further proposes to "Combine the offices _q?_ Statistician- and Assistant Secretary." This lids angered Dr. B. F. Stewart, at present Stati>i-ian " and he has raised th(.-cuf'of Dictator. To see the result of this race is" worth ""Walking from "anywhere to Laurens. The question of changing the timo of meeting from the livs Wednesday in May to a date in November will also be brought up in this session. Those attending this session should give serious thought to this- question before taking steps to make any changes along this line. For the up eoun' try this change would work, fin; but would play havoc with the low-cQiJntry. . r Abt(ve Columbia nearly all associations are over in August, in the low county they end in November?-The low < ? '. n try churches will not go right fiom.. t-h'ir association to th Stale Convention. Hither the State Con vention or_ the Associations must suffer. As the saying goes, the deeper well will dry the shallow; you may reason for yourself dear reador what will happen. The writer does not question the sincerity of those, proposing the change but having lived in t,he low . country all -his- life ami speaking the dialect and thinking the thoughts of low country folk knows that as far a view country people are concerned "it aint a gwinter to work," you may not hear any objections from any other low-country brother, sonic may go so far as to vote with you for the change therf go back home and sit right down and study war _ / no more. A hint to the wise is sufficient. The writer will not fight the change but as in other things wait and see the failure. . Again the question of the sami?_ women in their convention will be ; meeting place for the men and ' discussed. The sooner this can be accomplished the better. It will not, only give both conventions more prestige but will mean more"" money to the objects of the denomination as well as the ' elimination of much expense. The writer offers the motion that we assemble in Columbiaa S. ('. in l!i.'57 both brethren and sisters in a great Baptist assembly and praise God from whom all blessings v flow." If any change in the time of meetnig is to be made let the brethren and sisters all meet in J une. The Missionary Department will receive serious consideration also in this session. Some body , should direct the work of our mission' aries. They should he called u/pon to carry out a well defined program.
