N S WN A N. FRIDAY, SEPT. 25 from our correspondents. TURIN. In company with Prof. 0. Chappell we went over to Pleasant Hill church Saturday. Af er preaching the church met in conference anti elected mes- senders to the approaching meeting of the Western Baptist Association as fo’- lows: John Adcock and Pope Morris. As the pastor had been called ofT for Ste day the conference adjourned, to meet again on the first Sunday in Oc tober, when the pastor will preach a special sermon on missions, and :in-il arrangements will he made Jt'or a good report to the association. The annual singing at Pleasant Hill church Sunday was well attended, and the exercises were much enjoyed by the large crowd present. Excellent order was maintained throughout the day. Many people are complaining at the condition in which the public roads have been left after they were scraped over by the road machines. Trash, rocks and other debris were left piled up in the center of the roadways, ren dering’ travel both difficult and unc un- fortable. We attended an ordination service at Line Creek church Sunday, and assisted in ordaining to the deaconship .1. W. Spradlin, John O. Stincheomb, Chas. Whitlock and G. I., Brown. At the same service Wyatt Chandler was or dained to the work of the ministry. He is now serving Rock Spring church as pastor. The following ministers composed the presbytery, via: Dr. Turner, pastor of the church, Rev. Wm. Walker and Rev. H. S. Rees. The latter was chosen to preach the ordi nation sermon, and Rev. Mr. Walker delivered the charge to the candidates. We were glad to meet the good people of this chu'ch, which we served as pastor for fifteen years. The absence of many familiar faces, however, caused us deep sadness. While in Line Creek community we visited our old friend, Jas. A Brown, a pioneer citizen, now in his 91st year. Meeting-days at Line Creek church have been changed from the third Sun day and Saturday before to the fourth Sunday. Judge B. B. Weldon’s family are afflicted this week with mumps. All this talk about passing laws to restrict the production of cotton in 1915 is tommyrot. Farmers of the South have as much sense and patriotism as any other class, and are quite able to manage their affairs without special legislation to direct their activities. If curtailment of the cotton acreage in 1915 shall be deemed advantageous to his interests, he will see it as quick as anyone and govern himself accordingly. This talk of legislating in “the farmer's interest” makes us tired, anyway. Having endured the hardships en tailed by the late Civil War—and they were numerous and severe- the Eu ropean war troubles us but little. Of course, the reflected effect of the war upon this country is to be deplored, be cause we are innocent sufferers. We should be mutually forbearing and len ient toward each other until the war cloud passes. Born, on the 14th inst., to Mr. and Mrs. R. H. Johnson—a daughter. Mrs. E. 0.
