VOL. XXIX.
NOTED PREACHER
TO ASSIST IN THE
M.E. REVIVAL HERE
During the simultaneous evangelis
tic campaign of the Winder churches,
beginning April 30th, the Methodist
church will have as their leader one of
the greatest pastor-evangelists in the
Southern church. He is a product of
North Carolina, noted for its preachers
such as Dixon, Broughton, Belk, Plato
Durham and others who are inter
nationally famous. It would perhaps
be no exaggeration to say that he is
the most popular man in the North
Carolina conference. He is as success
ful in his work with chil3rert as with
men, and wherever he has gone he has
left a trail of outstanding organized
men's Bible classes behind him.
It will interest Winder to know that
Mr. Stanford has turned down numer
ous other offers to join in the simulta
neous campaign here, being influenced
largely by his friendship for Mr. Col
lins. who was associated with him in
North Carolina several years ago. He
is still a single man, though a few
years the senior of the Winder pastor.
This may account for his refusal to
-send a photo to the committee who
Wished to use his picture in advertis
ing the meeting. His success in evan
gelistic work has been phenomenal, and
great things are expected of his preach
ing here.
The sinking will be in charge of R.
L. Etheridge, who is not only a singer
but who knows how to get results from
the congregation. His experience in
big meetings and his musical education
are combined with a magnetic person
ality and plenty of “pep.” There will
certainly not be a dull moment during
the song service. A large junior choir
is being organized to assist in the mu
sic and all singers who are not busy
elsewhere will be cordially welcomed as
additions to the regular choir. The
new' song book “Hymns of Praise," will
i>e used during the meeting.
The following sketch of Mr. Stan
ford has been furnished us by the Gas
tonia Gazette.
Rev. Alfred Leland Stanford is now
serving his fourth year as pastor of
Main Street Methodist church, Gasto
nia. N. C. f which has grown steadilv
Under his ministry. He is recognized
as one of the most successful pastor
evangelistists in the Western North
Carolina Conference, or, for that mat
ter, in the entire state of North Caro
lina. He preaches to crowded houses
twice every Sunday, it being a rare
thing that there is an empty seat in
Main Street church at either the morn
ing or evening service. Last fall he
made a trip to the Holv Land and Eu
rope and has just completed a series of
Sunday evening lectures-sermons on the
Holy Land which drew enormous
crowds each Sunday night during the
series, often many persons being turn
ed away.
Under Mr. Stanford’s pastorate
here plans have been made for anew
church building, to cost when built
$25(5.000. A part of this plant, a
young people's building acknowledged
to be one of The most complete in every
respect in the entire South, is now near
ing .completion at a cost of $140,000.
This building houses an indoor swim
ming pool, a large library and reeding
room which is to lie open seven days
>iu the week and various other institu
tional features not now in use by any
church in this section of the country.
Main Street Methodist church of Gas
tonia is the only church, so far as is
known, in Southern Methodism, where
no public collections whatever are tak
en. No collection plates are ever pass
ed in this church. This was an innova
tion made by Mr. Stanford soon after
he came to Gastonia. This has been
rendered possible by reason of the fact
that a large number of the official
members and members of the con
gregation are tithers.
Midweek services at Mr. Stan
ford’s church draw crowds of from
250 to 500. They are the marvel of
the town.
Mr, Stanford is a deeply spiritual
man, earnest in his preaching and puts
I the interests of God’s kingdom above
else.
B. He is a graduate of Trinity College
Wild has tilled many of the best ap
pointments in the Western North Car
olina Conference.
LABORLESS BOLL
WEEVIL TRAP
The Laborless 801 l Weevil Company
is anew business concern in Winder
that has been organized in this city for
the manufacture of a boll weevil trap
that can lie attached to a plowstock
and the weevils caught while the cot
ton is being plowed. An advertisement
of this trap is being carried in the ad
vertising columns of this issue of the
News. We hope every farmer will read
it and note what it says.
Rev. J. F. Singleton Is
Called to the Lawrence
, ville Baptist Church.
„ At* a conference held at the First
Bapt.M church in Lawrenccville last
Sunday night, a unanimous call was ex
tended to Rev. J. F. Singleton, of Fitz
gerald. to become its pastor. It is
thought that he will accept the call.
Mr. Singleton ranks with the best Bap
tist preachers in the state.

CHOIR WORK
WINS PRAISE
Numerous visitors in the city have
commented on the excellence of the
musical services rendered recently by
the Methodist church choir. During
the past few months this organization
has given several high class programs,
the music of the Easter season especial
ly attractive. The solo work of Miss
Ora Lee Camp and Mrs. ('. G. Land, the
violin obligato of Mr. Bertram Rad
ford, with the painstaking and efficient
service of Mis. A. D. McCurry at the
piano have all received a large share
of the praise. The ensemble work of
the chorus, however, has been delight
ful, not only to musical critics, Hut to
that ever increasing part of the popula
tion of Winder which enjoys and appre
ciates really good music. At the close
of the pageant on Sunday night, the
famous ‘halleluiah chorus” from the
Messiah was given for the first time
here, with a spirit and volume that was
overpowering.
The following are the members of
the choir who have, been assisting in
these service!*:
Sopranos—Mesdames C. G. Land, T.
A. Maynard. G. C. Moseley. W. C. Hor
ton, Lee DeLaPerriere, Misses Ora Lee

A New Grocery Store.
As we go to press we learn that a
new grocery store is being put up at
the old stand of the Athens Street Gro
cery store, recently occupied by Mr. W.
O. Wootten. The store has been thor
oughly overhauled and anew stock of
fancy and family groceries is being put
in. They will deliver anywhere in the
city and promise the public the best of
services. They will make the closest
prices possible and all who patronize
this new firm can rest assured of the
most courteous treatment and the best
of service. They will buy and sell all
kinds of country produce. Mr. Ernest
Carrington will have charge of the
store, and lie is well known to all our
citizens and well acquainted with the
grocery trade of the city. We wish
the new firm the best of success.
Some Fine Oats.
Our friend, C. M. Thompson, has
one-third acre of as fine oats as is us
ually seen in this section or any other
section. He sowed one-half bushel of
seed and did not use any fertilizer. The
oats are now ?> feet high and many old
citizens say they never saw any finer
oats. The one-third acre will make at
least 30 bushels, whieh at 50 cents per
bushel would make ?1! or $45 per acre.
Can you beat this? „
NORTHERN MILLS
MAY SHUT DOWN.
Borne of he textile trade papers of
the New England states and Eastern
centers generally, are beginning to fear
that the south is due to haw a monop
oly on the textile industry in the course
of a few years.
One paper says that no more cotton
mills are likely to be built in Massa
chusetts, because the capital that is
available for this industry lias found
that conditions in the South are much
more alluring, that labor is better and
more consistent, that climatic condi
tions are more conducive to good manu
facture, and that the South has all the
other advantages which would make for
tin* development of this industry to
maximum proportions.
“Why shouldn’t the south be the tex
tile center of the universe?” declared
an Atlanta cotton mill iuanufamturer.
“Here it is that the raw material is
made. Cotton mills can stand right in
the midst of cotton fields and produce
the finished product from the raw ma
terial grown right by its side.’”
“Moreover, the labor situation here is
all that could he desired from the
standpoint of efficiency. There is no in
dustry in the whole country that can
boast the sort of labor as the textile
industry of the South, labor that is free
from the aggravating problems -arous
ed by the immigrant, labor that is fur
nished by men and women of the same
ancestral strain us that of the men
who are furnishing the capital.”
‘Thus there is developed between cap
ital and labor in the south, a communi
ty of interests, from hereditary in
, stincts, that is denied every other large
industry in the country.’
