Your brother church member,
II he is christian and following
In the footsteps of Jesus, needs
to be told nothing. He will vote
for prohibition. But, your broth
er church member who follows
from one-twentieth to one half
his time in the footsteps of the
devil, you should remind him that
the semblance of being Christ like
is to vote for prohibition. He
may take the hint, and rather
than fail below the profession he
makes may wear his garb of
christianity to the polls.

MIR Editor Your correspond
ent had the pleasure of visiting
relatives at the quiet little town
Of Potter's, N G, the past week.
We also attended services at the
camp meeting Saturday night and
Sunday. The camp meeting was
we'll attended and the people man
ifested great interest in it.
We were glad to see Rev Sam
Belk, one of Union county's no.
blest sons, but now of Rome, Ga.
He preached beautiful and pow.
erful sermon Sunday evening at
3 O'Clock, taking for his text St.
Mathew XIV, 1913.
Sixty-six years ago, when
churches and preachers we're scarce
the noble sires Of this comm unity
prompted by a spirit of brotherly
love, with the fear of God in their
hearts, and with yearning de-
sire to have the Gospel preached
to them and their children, built
the commodIous arbor, which still
stands, and under which hundreds
of people meet annually to hear
the word of the Lord preached, to
worship Him and sing praise to
His name. The citizens of old
Pleasant Grove would part with
their dearest possessions rather
than discontinue their annual
campmeeting. l could tell you a
great deal about the thrift, the in
tel lgence, hospitality and refine
ment of the people and their fine
dwellings,, fine farms, ETC., but
the lack of space forbids.
Mr. Editor, we have had a sight
of rain this summer. Two of the
biggest rains we have any recol-
lection of ever seeing fall, visited
this section recently, ono last FRI
day night and the other Sunday
morning. We noticed on our re-
turn from Pleasant Grove that the
creeks and branches all along the
way had overfowed their banks
and great damage done to bottom
corn.
In regard to politics can say
that MIR Featherstone has many
ardent supporters around here, all
true christian people will vote fer
him. Many habitual druukards
who want the curse put out of
their reach will vote for him.
I think the candidates for coun.
ty Offices will all get a few votes.
The people of this section are very
enthusiastic over the educational
question. l would like to write
more but my letter is now too
long. Will write more again.
