In the pulpit he is irresistible! His
gestures are those of the highly polished
orator, and are beautifully set off by
a well-hanging Prince Albert coat,
hands of womanly shape and smoothness,
pearl-colored four-in-hand, and
tasty stick-pin, with all other comely
features of dress and person.
His sermons are creating a sensation
stronger, even, than that caused by his
personal appearance, and we have had
to secure extra chairs to accomodate
the enthusiastic crowds.
Hast Sunday night he took as his subject:
"Some Features of Socialism, as
it Kxisted Before the Catastrophe in
the Garden." I shail not attempt to describe
its effect, but simply say that it
manifested a close acquaintance with
ancient history and with the customs of

been asked, repeatedly, to submit it for
publication, and it may appear, soon, In
that widely-circulated religious weekly,
'The New View." After the benediction
is pronounced, he is at one of the
front doors of the church, even before
it is reached by Jimmie Debroy and
Marie Handel, who invariably occupy
the back-most pew, and pass notes and
eye-lightning dunhg the less eloquent
passages of the discourse. His face
fairly beams! He shakes hands with
everybody?laughs and jokes, calls
them "brother" and "sister," and then,
before one knows it, is back up front,
talking mournfully to one of the church
oilicers. It is very sweet and commendable
in him to do so, but I am unable
to say how he manages to get
around so rapidly. The best way I can
express my sentiments on this point,
as well as some Other featnrec to in
the words of the pious electrician, who
has recently come to us: "He is a live
wire."
And such a mixer! I never! He
spends a good part of his afternoon
standing on the curb-stones, smoking a
cigar, sometimes a pipe, which, he declares,
has a tendency to draw a certain
element, and effects sociability in
general. (Bro. 'Sincere never smoked;
he said that, as he didn't want the boys
of his congregation to do so, he thought
it would be wrong to set them the example.
He was so awfully narrow and
extreme!) Our new preacher, however,
says a minister should study to
be popular; that he should "become
all things to all men;" "that if the believed
Paul expressed such a lofty sentiment,
surely we, who, etc., etc." And,
so, he is gaining popularity every day.
Believing that "liVe" subjects should
be treated in the pulpit, he has promised
us a series of discourses on "The
Political Situation in Our Glorious Municipality;"
"The Psychological Effects
of Music," and, "Will Mr. Taft or Mr.
Roosevelt Come Back?" From these we
expect great things.
I might say more, I am so enthused!
But I must conclude with the remark
that we consider ourselves extre'mely
fortunate in having secured the services
of so wonderful a man!
P. S.?At his suggestion we are to
have, on the first Sunday evening of
July, and Instead of the regular services,
a cantata, entitled, '^Ahab and His
i ourt." These cantatas are to be rendered
on different Sabbaths through
the heated season.
I am glad to sign myself?

THE PRESBYTERIj
Workmen are now busy installing a
sewerage system which is due to be
complete by June 16th. Perhaps nothing
has been more needed at Montreat
than a tirst-class sewerage system as
a safeguard to health. The dirt removed
in excavating for the addition to the
Alba Hotel was used to make more
effective and secure the dam of the lake.
Substantial work has been done on Borne
of the more used roads and In the near
future we hope to add improvements to
make more comfortable and convenient
Hotel Montreat. There are other minor
improvements we hope to effect before
the conference season.
An excellent program has been provided
for the conferences and will be
mailed to a large number of our friends
throughout the church in the near
future. From the nresent outlook th*>
attendance will be unusually large this
season notwithstanding the fact that a
number of cottages and the addition to
the Alba Hotel are in the process of
erection, we will have no room to spare
if we accommodate the crowds. We
believe the time has come when lot holders
would do well to build cottages as
soon as possible.
With the sewerage system, with better
roads, larger hotel accommodations, the
Association out of debt, and the manifest
zeal and interest we find on every
hand there is no risk whatever, no reason
for delay in building your summer
home at Montreat. No money can be
better invested for the good of a family
of children and young people especially
than to put it a summer home at Montreat.
The summer vacation spent within
our grounds, protected from every
form of demoralizing influences on
every hand, and brought into the most
natural and easy touch with the most
refined and cultured people, together
with the positive Christian influence of
our conferences is something worth
making a sacrifice to obtain. It is a
happy thing to see Christian people returning
from the summer vacation
stronger in body, and refreshed and revived
in spirit instead of half broken
down and worn out through demoralizing
influences and dissipations which
characterize so many of our summer resorts.
Let us not delay in building our
cottages, for every one makes room for
more people and helps to solve the
problem of 'providing for the crowds.

I was walking along one winter's
night, hurrying toward home, with my
little maiden by my side. Said she:
"Father, I am going to count the stars."
"Very well," I said; "go on." By and
by I heard her counting: "Two hundred
and twenty-three, two hundred and
twenty-five. O dear," she said, "I had
ft. N OF THE SOUTH
no idea there were so many." Ah, dear
friend, I sometimes say in my soul,
"Now, Masteri I am going to count the
benefits." Soon my heart sighs not
with sorrow, but burdened with much
goodness, and I say to myself, "I had
no idea there were so many."?Mark
