fairly portiays the status of the schools,
the system that prevails and the in
fit~ssgces that are at work sustaining
and strengthening the measure.
THE CHURCH INTEREST
is OF vital Importance. To the credit
of North Carolina it can be said that
in no sister Commonwealth, whether
in the North, the South, the East or
the West, is greater observance paid
to the observances Of the Sabbath day.
So TAR as the State generally is con-
ceried in the rural districts, people are
at more pains to attend worship each
Sabbath than in any other part of the
coua try. In some sections of the
State churches are at long distances
from each other, but these'long dis

ARPEARANcE OF WINSTON.

No visitor to Winston can fail to be
impressed with its appearance. There
is an air of thrift-of business activity
of go-aheadativeness' that rarely
characterizes a North Carolina town,
or, We should say, that rarely charac-
terized North Carolina town few
years ago. But aside from this busl-
ness-like appearance there are other
features that commend themselves to
intelligent observers.
The centre of Winston, commercial
ly considered, is the Courthouse
Square. The most enthusiastic of
tourists would have but cold covering

miration" of the Court House. 1t ism t
a "thing of beauty. and we hope it
won't prove "a JOY forever" From
this square, which is really the sum-
nit of a slight knoll, the ground slopes

soon be an established fact.
aAILRoAD POSSIBILITIES.
The completion of the North
Western North Carolina rail
road, extending from Wins
TONS lem to Greensboro,
where it connects with the
great Richmond & Danville
system, ushered in a period
of prosperity to Winston that
nothing else could have pro-
duced, and the facilities that
this railway have given our
manufacturers and tobacco
dealers have proved the very
life-blood Of the Twin City.
This road is only % miles in
length, so that we are in close
connection with the great
thoroughfares and the great
marts Of the country, and
under Col. A. B. Andrews
administration the affairs or

mas long since Deenfully demonstrated.
The present town of Salem, around
which cluster the most interesting
items Of history connected with this
county, was laid out in 1865 and de-
signed rs a centering point for the
MoraVlan religion III the South, which
position. it has. continued to hold to
the present time and it is in great part
to the frugul and industrious habits of
these earl ~. settlers, as. well as to the
peculiar customs. and obseryances of
the Moravian Church that the present
prosperous condition of our county is
due, Lying contiguous to the lands
which were subsequently to be chosen
tor the ideal Republic OF. f.Transylvania,
Wachovia is perhaps the only instance
in modern. times in which the. princi-
pies of Areadian life have, been sue
cessfuHy applied, and adhered to for. a
period extending, over nearly a cen
tury. A custom prevailed here which
required each man to seek through diff
ferent trades Or channels, the means OF
sustenance and though the system was
abandoned in later years as being too
marrow for more progressive ami
comprehensive state, OF society, il is
still Recognized as forming a basis ~
CA whicilzis built the great diversity
of manufactures, which makes 50 dis
tinguishing a feature i'll the industry of
eur county. r. @ s.
- asALEMs s FussT HOUSE.
! 1t IS a fact worthy of notice, that the
first house ever built in Salem, in 1866,
is now occupied as pottery shop,
which business has been uninterrupt,
edly carried on for over a century
many of the moulds dating back as far
as 1774, now in existence, and pre-
senting curious and antique appear
anee. Itis hardly possible that a pslr-
allel can be cited in the annals OF Am
erican history. f
The second house, also standing, built
during the same year, was, is hist'.ry
fttls us, Immediately occupied Or
Brother Praexel and Brother Hold
err" who carried OH the weaver's and
sal,Iler's business These instances are
only given to show at what an early
period the seeds OF manufacturing
were s0wn among us. In 1918, the
''f5atcin Nater Works were Construct
ed by james Krause, which continued
in operation substantially as built fer
exactly one hundred years, when be-
cause Of the inability to supply the
increased demand, they were suppIant-
ed by the present system. They we're
the first and for many years the only
water works in the State, and were
greatly admired by Gen. Washington
during his visit to Salem, in 1871.
In 1871 the first paper mill in the
State was built in this county. It con-
tinued in operation until 1873, when it
was destroyed by fire.
Were We to undertake any thing
like 4 history" Of this section we
should occupy far more space than we
have at our disposal The rough
sketch we have already made serves
to outline the salient points, and any
student of history can further acquaint
himself with the past development of
Forsyth county at will. OF the re-

briefly spoken-lnformation
other than we have given
Will be cheerfully furnished
by any intelligent citizen of
the Twin-City.
Winstonians are proud Of
their town and they have u
right to be. From a mere
hamlet. with a populatioa Of
less than five hundred G few
years ago, it has grown. with
rapidity anrivalled in the
history Of any Southern
State. It is, as it were, q
child of. to day, but a lusty
child, and one that gives
promise of vigorous ni;sn-
hood. A glance at our re-
view Of the business interests
Of the city will show that out
of population of nearly or
quite seven thausand, there
are few among our bushes

The Methodist Church of Winston,
located ON Liberty street, is the finest
of all, architecturally considered. 1t
is type of modern church architect
ure, and the engraving we give of it
upon this page in measure serves to
convey an idea of its harmonious out
lines and proportions. Rev. j. T Bag
we'll is the pastor in charge, ami the
church membership and attendance of
this denomination is the largest Of any
here. Its Sabbath School is also large
ly attended.
The Presbyterian Church is brick
edifce, located upon Cherry street,
facing Third street lis site is slight
ominence from which slightly views are
had, and we understand that it is in
contemplation by the congregation to
erect new and handsome church edi-
flee at an early day. The congrega
tion constantly grows in numbers and
wealth, and among its numbers are
some of our most influential and ener-
getic citizens Rev. Dr. f. III. John
son is the pastor.
The Baptists have plain but sub
stantially brick church upon Second
street. OF it Rev. E. A Brown is
pastor. The attendance here is usual
~ very good and at times the seating
capacity OF the building is severely
te+ted. Recently !, very interesting
revival has been in progress at this
church.
The Methodist Protestant church is
also brick edifce, neat and attract
i've in disappearance. It, too, has been
constantly gaining in membership and
i'll usefulness. Rev. W. F. Kennett
is pastor.
st. Paul's, the only Episcopal
Church IN Winston, has recently lost
its rector, Rev. B. ". Dougherty, by
reason Of his removal to Bellefontaine,
Ohio, few days ago. What action
has been taken to supply the rector
ship thus made vacant we have been
unable to learn.
There are three Chapels: East Sa-
lem, Union Grove and Elm street, and
three coiorcd churches: the Methodist
Episcopal, Baptist and Moravian chap
