. It is declared that the men quit
against their will and fh the face of a
I .attract with the Arm which has near
ly a year yet to run. The union ofll
clal* at 8tone Mountain have opened
correspondence with Dunean In *n ef
fort to adjust matter*.
In speaking of the walk-out. 8
Venable, of the Arm, declared the men
were satisfied and were anxious to car
ry nut the contract they made on May
1. 1908) for two years.
' "The order from Duncan I* one of
the most outrageous thlnyv I.have ever
lienrd of," said Mr. Vennbie. "On May
1, 1908, our firm made a contract with
the men, which was ratified In due
firm by the Stone Mountain union.
During the latter part of May, just
passed, Duncan notified the men to give
me 90 days' notice of their Intention to
quit. They replied that they had a
contract with our firm for two years;
that our firm had lived up to It, and
so had they, and that they were bound
'by It. Duncnn Insisted he had had no
notice of a two years' contract, and
that the telegram he hod sent was suf
ficient notice for our Arm. With the
end of the 90 days, the men were or
dered out. Failure on their part to
obey Instructions meant a heavy Ane,
so they quit. The men were anxious
that I write and explain to Duncan that
they had a contract with our Arm and
were honor bound to live up to It. This
I refusffl to do, n* I have known Dun
can and his methods for 85 years, and
I wnnt nothing to do with him. I have
asked the men for an arbitration board,
nnd they are non' taking this matter up
with their chief. The men have no
complaint to make- nnd the walk-out
Is caused hy Duncan."
The men who walked out receive
from 83 to 83.60 a day and are expert
workmen.

eat men of the time, who find it possible to
ley aaide multitude* of engroaiilng care* in
order to renew the amtimental Rato*
elation* of the fundamental, peraonal, human
relationahipa. There is no more appealing
touch in the atory of the travel* of the great
apostle Paul than the narrative of how, when
ending hi* third miaaionary trip, he could not
reaiat the opportunity to meet again with
hia friends at Kpheaua nnd to bid them fare*
well. The epiaode la quite like what may
be aecn by a traveler upon almoat any thru
train. For oceaaionalv. at certain atntiona,
friend* and kindred will come to greet trav<
elere, If onlv tar a few minute*. Like a
glimpse of the old home thru a train win*
dow, was Paul's touch with Kpheaua aa he
tude for making friend*. If* w«* more than
a leader and worker; he wan a comrade and
counsellor. A flood of light la thrown upon
tils character by the fact that whan he
started bark to Jerusalem on this third mla*
eionnry journey he waa accompanied aa far
aa Asia by aeven friend*. At Mlletna the
leader* of the Kpheaua church came down to
greet, him. The occasion was not merely a
rnilion of the paaalng by of. the
‘leaiaatical official of the Chris
tian community; It waa Paul, the fatherly
friend, who drew them. •

we make. This Is a InTaon that la taught
onlv by time. A wlae old man know* that

a familiar face and tha sound of a loved

One of the by*producta /ot service U fel
lowship. The person who gpe* Info Christian
work does not rockon with this factor at first,
but as the years pass he finds that in the
community of a .common labor for a common
Lord he has been drawn close to a company
of kindred spirits who, he discovers, are his
beat friends. Thus he gradually perceives
the profound truth that one ot the gr ‘
rewnrria of Christian service in Christla

together with God, but he has also learned
the privilege and delight of being a laborer
together with Ood'a other fellow workers.
Dean Roaworth, of Oberlin college, haa said
that there are four things which bind
moat closely together; the flrat is a common
hope, the second i* a common work, the
third is ib'liverniK-e from a < onnnoii p. ril, mid
the fourth la loyalty to a common friend. On
this quadrilateral, Christians And themselves
united in a community of interest that con*
atitute* (he strongest bond in (he world. The
great combination of politics nnd of business
and of self-exploitation all have in them the
elements of disintegration; but the tie that
binds Christiana together grows strong!
with tho passage of years. In our own dl.
(here Is discernible n tendency to stress tho
earrednea* and value of (he Christian fellow-
ship. The various brotherhood* In th«
churchca are asking themselves the question
Why should not our Christian fellowship
mean more to na, In all practical ways, than
the fellowship in any secret or fraternal or*

When the eena# of her unity onee possesses

thus far have presented an almost unshaken

this passage In Paul's life, of convoying
friend on his way, has persisted to this at.
From Corinth nnd Theaaalonlcn deputations
of leading Christiana Journeyed part way
with Paul. Then, after" his meeting with the
Kphealan elders at Miletus, they "brought
him on hi* way unto the ship." One ot the
delight* at Japanese social life Ii the custom
of eeeortlng to the train one who Is about
to take a Journey, and of meeting him in
force when he returns. Repeatedly have I
seen large deputations of Japanese at the
train to bid welcome or farewell to traveling
friends. Two young women from America
had gone to Japan to join the Southern Meth
odist mission at Hiroshima, ond they were
greeted at the station by a company of
If** than three hundred persons.

A movement to secure wooden block
paving for Forsyth-st. from .Luckle to
Peaehtrv-sts. Instead of the belglan
block paving as originally content
plated, haa been put under way by
property owners In the vicinity.
Councilman B. Lee Smith Friday
morning received a communication
from aeveral of the property owners
requesting him to use every influence
to secure the wood paving, and It la
probable that the matter will be laid
before council In the nature of a peti
tion. The communication was signed
by L. DeGIve, E. M. Horine. H. M. Pat
terson & Son, F, W. Patterson and H.
N. Dutton, manager of the Piedmont
hotel.
‘ <'VV* have consulted the commissioner
of public works,” say the property
owners, "and have learned from him
that to pave this section with wood
blocks will cost but a fow hundred dol
lars more than the relaying of the bel
glan blocks already provided for.
"We believe that the use of wooden
blocks will be to the city's best Inter
est purely ns a business proposition, as,
In the event tho belglan blocks nre re-
laid. they will very aoon have to be
taken up and wood blocks substituted
because of the very many modern Im
provements that have been made, are
now In the course of construction or
are planned for the Immediate future In
making this one of the most Important
retail and business sections of the city."

Cobs is a new cigar, made in
a new way, made of old Havana'tobacco.
The cigar is rough but its taste is smooth. If the same quality
•of leaf were rolled into a fancy shape, you’d have to pay 10 cents
for one cigar as good asany one of the nine Cobs for which you only pay 15c.
Cobs aren’t for the man who can’t afford better—they’re for the man who
can afford the best, but can’t afford to waste money. A mild, fragrant and
luscious smoke without the bitterness or the tastelessness of a domestic leaf.
Try Cobs and you’ 11 buy Cobs. Smoke- them, not because they' re economical,
but because they’re best The more you know of tobacco, the more you’ll like
Cobs. Theh&rderyou are to please, the more pleased you’ll be, with Cobs. Don’t

Onlv those who hsre experienced it can know
how inch signs of fellowship warm the cockles
of a man's heart. It meant moro to Paul
than even the heartbreak in the narrative
reveals, to have the little reunion with hia
Ephesian friends a* he journeyed on to Je
rusalem, and to the unknown fate before
him.
Pointing to tha Past.
Strong with the most unassailable strength
the man whose record will besr in*
Innumerable men hare been halted :
careers and balked in their ambition* by the
rising up before them, as ghostly specters,
of an unfortunate past. When, In a recent
American election, the question of available
candidates for the presidency was np, the
name of a certain able statesman was fre
quently brought forward by the uninitiated;
but the wiser politicians shook their head*
and aaid: ''No, his record is vulnerable."
ppy is the man who ran point to his past
■ his own vindication. Every man quitting
a post, be It the presidency, a pastorate, a
clerkship or a Job of gardening, should be
able to say; "There is my work. Inspect it.
It is my best testimonial." *
When Paul, after the passage of years,
came to hts final accounting with the Ephesian
rhureh officer*, he rould summon to witness
for him the record that he had made in their
midst. He bad not been n trimmer or a
toady. He had not been afraid of the fnce
of man. nor had he shrunk from hardship
•nd suffering, and he had delivered his mes
sage without fear and without favor. What
a record to crown one’s work l Every tench-
an well as every preacher, should be able
any time of parting, aa on the judgment
•, to sav to those who had been In his
charge: "I shrank not from declaring unto
you anything that was profitable."
Holding Life Cheaply.
Aa Pawl counseled with these friends he
let full nn expression which revenleil hia
life platform: "I hold not my life of any
ncrount na dear unto myself, so that I
may accomplish my course and the ministry
which I received from the Lord Jeans. ’
Thnt la In contrast with the baneful spirit
of the modern dny. We nre prone to
overeatluinte the vnlue of life Itself. Our
comfort, onr prosperity, otir safety, nre put
ns tlrat considerations. For the sake of
their htislneas welfare men do not hesitate
to Stultify their ninulHsMl. Professor Wil
liam James, of Harvard, declares thnt the
prevalent dread of poverty and hardship
among our better classes, with Its accom
panying worship of wealth and Inxnry. Is
••the worst dispose from which our civiliza
tion suffers." We sorely need an Infusion
of the heroic spirit which can say with
Paul. "I hold not tuy life of any account
as dear unto myself."
The day’s newspapers tell* us bow the
Moorish trities fling themselves In high dl*-

.... _ .... .. bstnsL, ...
tho It In*. There Is something In
the nature of man whicht tells him that It
Is noble to despise death and danger. Onr
comfortable, conventional, coddled life Is
likely to be cowardly. We shrink from
pnln; we hall the modern health move
ments with extravagant neeln mat ions, as if
health were the supremo object of exist
ence. Let us not fall to learn from Paul,
nnd all the other heroes of history, thnt
man at hi* Iteat may dure to die; nnd that
often death In worthier ot umii than life.
Well for us If we can say. "I did my work,
even tbo I died." For the delivery of
one's message, nnd the performance of
ouc’s work Is the supreme thing; one'*
own safetv Is nn incidental consideration.
This noble disdain of safety nnd comfort
Is In Itself nn emancipation from petty and
Ignoble subterfuges.
A High Cal'ing.
When n man look* ii|siti office In the
ehurrh ns nn honor rather than ns an op-
S ortunlty. he Is thereby shown to lie un
ited for the post. Sometimes the promi
nent places In religion are given to men
because they are wealthy or eminent In
social or political life. This Is a grave
error. It would be well If every church
gathering for the election of officers wen*
to open with a «*nrefill consideration of
l*nul s Instruction to the lender* of the
Ephesian church. He pointed otit the high
culling of the ehun*h officer. lie Is to stand
ns a Spirit-appointed representative of
t’hrlst. Bo Jar from exalting himself, his
work Is n spending of himself. Not his Is
It to hare his own way and to exert his own
will, l»nt rather, with ceaseles watchfulness
arrive, to s|N*iid himself In caring for
the weakest ami most foolish of nil
the sheep In-the fold.
Paul eonbl point to his own record. -He
named unmet characteristics which should
Is* never nhseiit marks of nil who hold of
fice In the church, lie was not covetous of
worldly wealth. He gave It is latter to the
church while supporting himself. He bellied
the weak. He held aloft the standard of
Jesus. **lt Is more Idessed to give thou to
tnvhv." May It not said that on*- of
the sources of strength nnd glory of thp
churches of today It in the noble htwt of
men and women who bear office and. with
unmeasured nnd gladly given toll, guard the
welfare of the cans* of rhrist. and serve
mankind with sacrifice and In the spirit of
the Master? Paul has left In his train a
splendid rompsny of men ami women who
are the partners of one another In the
greatest worle In fhe world, and partners
with Christ himself.
