"On his arrival, May LIST, 1910, DIR.
McPheeters assumed these duties and
was afterwards called to the pastorate
| of the PRESBYTERIAN Church, assisted
| by William Shaw, Thos. Emons, VIM.
| Peace and John Smith, as Ruling
| Elders.
Services were regularly conducted
in the State House, which had been
rendered to the PresbyteTianS and
others for religious worship. In 1917
the cornerstone of the present church
edifice was laid, and on Saturday, the
18th day of February, 1918, the building
was dedicated to the service of God.
These services were conducted by the
Pastor, Rev. DIR. VIM. McPheeters, Rev.
john Witherspoon and Rev. Jesse H.
Turner The first child baptized in
this church was Margaret McPheeters
OF Sunday, February s, 1918. DR.. Nc
Pheeters continued as Pastor from
1910 to about 1880, when he resigned
and a young minister from the Semi
nary, Rev. Mr.. Apthrop, served the
church as Stated Supply. He remained
very short time. In 1881, the Rev. n.
H. Harding served the church for a
short time and was succeeded by Rev.
| Thomas p. Hunt and Rev. Michael
| Osborn. Mr.. Osborn left in 1886, when
| DIR. McPheeters was again called to
| the pastorate of the church, but de-
clined.
"Since that time the following min
listers have served the Church, viz:
REV. Drury Lacy, ID. d., from 1896
TO 1854, as Pastor.
REV. Joseph NJ. Atkinson, ID. d.,
RI 1879 DactnT-
REV. c. r. Vaughn, ID. d., from 1878
to 1878, as Stated Supply.
REV. John S. Watkins, d. D., from
1878 to 1892, as Pastor.
The present Pastor, Rev. Eugene
Daniel, d. D., began his ministration
services October /, 1892.
The State House in which our con-
gregation for so long a time had wor
shipped was destroyed by fire in 1881.
The cornerstone of the present Capt.
tel was laid July 4, 1888, but the build
ing was not completed when the Con-
stitutional Convention of the State met
in the year 1885. This celebrated con-
vention, composed of the best and
ablest men of North Carolina, held its
sessions in our church building, which
was placed at its disposal as a graceful
recognition vi past ldNOIS.
THE Church edifice since its compile
ton in 1918 has been remodeled twice,
once in the interior only, and again
both in and outside.
THE first Presbyterian Sunday,
school was established in 1923 in the
City Academy, with Miss Benedict, an
earnest Christian worker, as its Super
intendent and Teacher. Necessary
funds for its maintenance were furn-
ished by Mr.. VIM. White.
The present building, known as the
Session Room, was built in 1925, and
when the Sunday moved to its
new home in this building, its useful
ness greatly increased and it was re-
cognized as a great power for good in
the community.

JAvA'S NATURAL WONDER.
Home of the Hot Devils Possesses Great
Interest to Travellers.

Home of the Hot Devils Possesses Great
Interest to Travellers.
The greatest natural wonder in Java,
if not in the entire world, is the justly
celebrated "Gheko Kamdka Gumko,"
or "Home of the Hot DEVILS" known to
the world as the ISLAND of Fire" This
geological singularity is really lake
of boiling mud, situated at about the
center Of the plains Of Grobogana, and
az is called an island because the great
emerald sea of vegetation which sur
rounds it gives it that appearance. The
''island" is about two miles in circum-
ference and is situated at distance Of
almost exactly so miles from Solo. Near
the center of this geological freak i'm
mense columns of soft, hot mud may be
seen continually rising and falling like
great timbers thrust through the boil
ing substratum by giant hands, and
then again quickly withdrawn. Be
sides the phenomenon of the boiling
mud columns there are scores of gigan-
tic bubbles of hot slime that fill up like
huge balloons and keep up a series of
constant explosions varying with the
size of the bubble. In times past, so
the Javanese authorities say, there was
a tall, spirelike column of baked mud
on the west edge of the lake, which con-
stantly belched pure stream of cold
water, but this has long been obliterat-
ed, and everything is now seething
mass of bubbling mud and slime, a
marvel to the visitors, who come from
great distances to see it.

REGULAR BREATHING.
Don't Take Short, Sharp Clasps wher
Riding a Bicycle.

Don't Take Short, Sharp Clasps When
Riding a Bicycle.
The pleasure and benefits to be derived
from cycling depend almost as much
upon the manner of breathing as upon
muscular strength. The easier n per-
son breathes, the easier he may ride;
but by easy breathing should be under
stood long, regular respirations, avoid
ing any approach toward short, quick
breaths. Those troubled with nasal dis
orders are often compelled to breathe
through the mouth, and when riding at
a good rate of speed rapid inhalation is
almost unavoidable. This manner of
breathing is always injurious, and is
more than apt TO lead TO heart or lung
trouble. Mere rapidity of movement is
not in itself sufficient to bring about
this ''shortness of BREATH" as it is IA
military known, but must be accom-
panied by intense muscular effort in
order to produce it, and may, there
fore, be attributed directly to general
muscular fatigue. When a rider begins
to feel WEAKNESS of this kind he should
at once reduce his pace or dismountand
rest, making at the same time practice
of breathing through the nose, with
slow eXhalations through the mouth.
of this character enhance
the pleasure and enjoyment of wheel
ing, and add greatly to the benefits that
are to be derived from the exercise.

Parsnips and waInuts.

Parsnips are sometimes served at
elaborate dinners in the form of Eng
lish walnuts; they are first boiled and
mashed fine. Then to each pint there
is added a teasPoonful of salt, two table
spoofuls of melted butter, a dash OF
pepper and two tablespoonfuIs of milk
Mix well over the fire, and when smok-
ing hot add a thoroughly beaten and
very fresh egg. Spread the mixture Oh
a dish to cool, then take the nut of an
English walnut, an almond, or a pine
nut and roll around it the parsnip pulp
until you have a good-sized nut. Roll
in egg and in cracker dust as you would
croquettes, fry light brown in deep
fat that is smoking. and serve hot.

FRUIT AS A MEDICINE.
More Virtue in Basket of Berries Than
in Whole Drug Store.


Very few people are aware of the
medicinal qualities of grapes; but these
they possess. The pulp is nutritious,
and the juice contains sugar, fannie
acid, bitartrate of potassium, tartrate
Of calcium, common salt and sulphate
of potassium. Without doubt, says
Scientific American, the woman who
cultivates the habit of eating a great
deal of fruit is the gamer of health and
appearance. The grapefruit, or shad-
dock, so called from its discoverer,
Lieut.. ShaddoclS, or, to mention it's soft
Chinese name, pumelo, is highly priced
by those who live in malarial localities.
1t is a charming rival to quinine and
boneset, and is driving them from the
field. She who eats her grapefruit with
q spoon from the natural cup, or rel
shes it served as a salad, may gladden.
her heart with the reflection that she
is not only pleasing her palate, but
benefiting her health. Like oranges
and lemons, the grapefruit has great
medicinal virtues. If you are of bill
ious temperament eat grapefruit; if
fever threatens, eat grapefruit, but in
this latter case do so only at the advice
Of physician, as there may be certain
tendencies which the grapefruit would
only aggrayate. The complaint is often
made that the fruit is extremely bitter
and unpleasant. 1t is only the white
inner rind which is so, and this should
be carefully removed.

that, if she holds the reins herself, she
will quickly learn that it adds immeas-

POST OFFICE SECRECY.
Ask a Letter Carrier the Address of Your

Ask a Letter Carrier the Address of Your
Friend, and He VIII Say; Excuse Me-"
1t is not generally known that Uncle
Sam looks upon the address or where
abouts of one of his citizens as an in
violable secret. Such, however, is the
case, says the New York World.
A New Yorker who had been out of
the city for some time found upon his
return, few days ago, that one of his
intimate friends had changed his resi-
dence without leaving his exact new
address. All he could gather was that
his friend now lived in a fiat on the
north side of certain street.
When he arrived at the block in ques-
ton he found to his dismay that every
house in it was a fat house. He would
have to go from door to door until he
found his friends name over one of the
bells.
He had not proceeded far when he
met q letter-carrier making his usual
delivery. Here, he thought, was the
man who could save him a lot of time
and trouble.
Eyes, sir" replied the postman, in re-
Spouse to his inquiry, 81 know the party
very well. But am sorry to say can
not give you his number. 1t is against
the rules"
The same secrecy is observed at the
post Office. The postal address of any
body will not be given by the federal
authorities even to state officer. This
rule is in accordance with the general
principle that a mans dealings with the
government are of q confidential ma
ture.

Cognac, the distilled liquor, takes its
name from the small city of Cognac,
IN France. The spirit has made Cognac
very rich; the population of no other
city on earth can show as large a pro-
portion of millionaires. The rich liquor
is distilled from wine only, and expert
ence teaches that excellence of quality
is obtained only when the crude, old
fashioned distilling apparatus is used.
