Greensboro Record
Whether true we do not know, but it is
a subject of almost general remark that
the goou old time religion is growing to
be a thing Of the past.
1t may bein some places-but it has
not all departed. SO far as Greensboro
is concerned we hear it from her preach
ers.
For instance last Sunday during a most
interesting sermon, DR.. Rowe, pastor of
West Market street church, is reported
to have said
Not many years ago | spent the night
with farmer in Western North Caro-
lima. He was not only engaged in farm
ing, but he ran two steam distilleries, /
enjoyed his hospitality and that of his
most estimable wife and family. Next
morning he asked me il | would call in
the. family and hold family prayers. L
told him had no objection, but wanted
TO be honest with him and frankly told
him | could not pray for the Lord to
bless his business, whereupon he said
his business did not need praying for.
Now that | want to say is that If any
Of you church members are engaged in
