GREEK GEES S/1
FOR PELLAGRA BO!
Fund for the Little Hero
the Santa Claus Let
ter Now $35.45
The sum of money in hand for little
Lee Roy Renew, the child with pellagra,
received a considerable impetus Thurs
day, principally through the work of a
Greek restaurant keeper, Nick Antonop
oulos. When the account of the child's
letter to Santa Claus appeared in the
Herald, he was so touched that he re
solved not only to contribute something
himself, but to get others to do likewise.
He got up a list, headed: "Contributions
for Little Lee Roy Renew, the Pellagra
Patient, Who May Never Live to Enjoy
Another Christmas. Won’t You Help to
Make His Last One on Earth Bright and
Happy?” He headed the list with sl, and
in all realized $7, the contributors being
named in the list published below.
In addition to this amount several con
tributions were received, making the
grand total $35.45. This amount, with
some postal cards sent in today, will be
turned /ver to the little boy’s parents
in time for Christmas, it having been
determined that this was the wisest plan
to pursue, in order that it might be
used as only they knew best.

DSJILKINSON Will
PREACH SUNDAY
Sermon on “Character and
Reputation of City Of
ficials.” Strong Local
Application.
Rev. Richard D. Wilkinson, pastor
of St. James’ Methodist church, will
Sunday night preach the third of his
series of sermons on 'The Gospel in
Its Relation to Civic Government.”
He hag selected as his theme the
“Character and Reputation of City
Officials.”
He announces that in his sermon
he will mention how and why some
men are elected to positions of re
sponsibility with city governments.
His sermon is expected to be
one of strong local application and
according to him he will deal with
some “straight things.” Dr. Wilkin
son declined to state whether he
■would mention the names of city
officials Sunday night or deal with
them as a body.
Unlike many of the sermons along
the same line as those being preach
ed by Dr. Wilkinson his sermons are
of a high plane and always scholarly
and of masterly delivery. He has been
asked by several to repeat his ser
mon of last Sunday night and will do
so at some date to be announced later.
JOHNSTON PASTOR
GETS XMAS GIFTS
Was Surprised To See Pro
visions At His Door
When Returning From
Prayer Meeting.
JOHNSTON, S. C.—lt was a happy
thought of Mr. Y. M. May when he cir
culated a small explanatory printed card
through the membership of the Baptist
congregation on Wednesday, inviting all
to prayer meeting and to bring a Christ
mas gift for the pastor and family. The
device worked fine and after the prayer
meeting was over Mr. and Mrs. Dawson
made way to their home next door, and
could not enter for the seven sacks of
flour, fine hams, a monstrous turtcey and
numbers of packages of good things piled
in front of the door.
“Happy smiles were on the faces of all
who saw the pretty moonlight scene and
departed to their homes happy in the
fact of bringing joy and gladness to their
beloved pastor.
