Loonl Ontion RESOLUTIONS.

To the members of Red Bank Bap
fist Church, your committee on local
option begs leave to submit the fol-
lowing preamble and resolutions:
Whereas, Believing that alcoholism
is great social and moral plague,
more deadly than contagious dis
eases, and more difficult to deal with,
that it's ravages are felt in all classes
of society, that it is the ruin of
health, of society, of nations, and
that it blocks the progress of the
christian religion; therefore be it re-
solved,
LIST, That we charge to alcoholism
more than one-half of the occupants
of our prisons, hospitals and lunatic
asylums.
I'd, That it is dangerous to society.
Sd, That the license system is sim
ply specializing on vice, on the ruin
of wealth. health, talent and morals,
and that such speculation is nowise
justifiable and should not be toler-
ated under any consideration.
4th, That every portion of the
community has duty to perform in
this matter, and that it requires the
combined effort of all to successfully
fight the existing evil
5th. That we believe it the God
given privilege and bounden duty of
every Christian to work and vote for
no license in the coming local option
contest.

Le.tors From the People.

EDITOR ENTERPR1sE-I see from
your last weeks issue that. Pastor
Dunaway has dropped forever the
title of reverend from his name and
requests others to do the same.
Now let us first inquire what is the
meaning of reverend. Webster says
it's primary meaning is. worthy of
reverence; entitled to respect min
gled with fear and affection"
Does Pastor Dunaway mean to say,
that he is not worthy of reverence or
entitled to respect mingled with fear
and affection2 If he feels he is not,
then do not blame him to drop the
title.
But his main reason seems to be,
because the word reverend is found
but once in the Bible. and there it
iapplies to God.
Does Pastor Dunaway mean to say.
he is going to contine himself and
| work so close to the Bible that he
will not use any thing except what he
finds in the Bible?
Wonder what lie will do with the
clerks of his churches, the organist,
the finance committee, superintend-
ents of his Sunday schools, and the
various other committees in his
churches? Wonder if he will attend
the next session of our Association or
the General Association of Virginia?
What is he going to do about our
foreign, home and State mission
boards? None of these things are
mentioned in the Bible.
have heard of an Indian who told
one of his friends that, his gun was
so straight that it bent back.
Now, Bro. Edmonds, when you or
any of my friends address me, if you
think me entitled to respect, min
gled with fear and affection, you may
address me as
| REV. L. II. HERNELL.
EDITOR MISREPRESENTATION me,
like other pastors, through your pa
per, to thank God and our good peo-
pie at Modestown, for very pleas
ant experience Thursday night. Our
Baptist Church members, fellow
christians of the Methodist Churches,
unconverted friends, and many chill
dren filled the parsonage, literally
pounding their pastors family with
a barrel of flour, three hams, fowl,
sugar, coffee, and many other useful
articles What kind things they
said. How cheerful and entertaining
they were. They enjoyed it as much
as ourselves. They have done this
often before. All through the year
they bring us good things. Their
loving kindness is beautiful and
Christlike. We cannot be too thank
full. God will not forget their work
of faith and labor of love. The pas
tor made speech and prayed, music
followed, and we reluctantly said
goodnight.
Our pastors conference here was
greatly enjoyed, and we regretted
that every pastor could not come
Many things in the churches were
encouraging, and three pastors CRATE
fully reported increased salary.
