SPRING HILL NEWS.

SPRING HILL, June 6-The usual
services were held on Sunday at
the Presbyterian and Methodist
| Churches.
Children's Day was observed at the
G.. p. Church. The programme was
carefully arranged and exceedingly
well rendered; each child manifested
great interest in the exercise and it
was. pleasing to all. The Church was
beautifully decorated in wheat and
potted flowers. Addresses were de-
livered by Revs. 7. J. Dixon, f. Ew-
ing Maddox and A. S. Maddox. all of
which contained choice thoughts.
On Sunday night we were favored
with the presence of Rev. f. Ewing
Maddox, who has been at school in
Clarksville, and is under the care of
the Columbia Presbytery of the Pres
byterian Church preparing for the
ministry. His discourse was very
fine and instructive, using as his
text: "What is that in thine hand, a
rod ?" The thought elucidated from
the text, was the power with which
God clothes weak things. He gave
brief history of the Israelites;
Gods appearance to Moses. The
the bask; The manner in which God
convinced his servant by the miracu-
lOus charges of the rod and the fact
that Aaron should go with him. He
then clearly demonstrated the fact
that He Ewas still using the weak
things of the world to compound the
wisdom of the wise, and assumed the
position that each of his hearers had
something in hand and our Father
required them to use it.
