FEATHERED AND RIBBONED
STUMBLING-BLOCK,

\
The Atlanta Jour nal of recent date,
contains a we'll written article, by F.
H. Richardson ,antagonistic to the over
s~hadowing greatness Of the large hat
in public assemblages. The size OF an
already big hat is increased by a
collection of plumes or flowers, some-
times both combined, which stand or
droop in every direction. 1t is we'll
known that in nearly all cities and
towns war has been made upon the
immense hats worn at theaters. La
dies are requested to remove their
hats, is seen On a placard in opera
houses. Church attendants are now
decrying the nuisance. Certainly the
reasons for doffing ia church these
beautiful but unwelcome distractions
OF vision are quite as strong as those
which cause their removal at operas
and plays. 1t Is just as desirable to
seq a preacher while he is speaking as
to see an actor while he or she Is
performing or singing. We can never
exactly appreciate what a speaker
means, particularly IL he is an orator
unless we can watch the light of
brilliant thought flash from his eye,
see the change of c~ountenance as
prompted by different emotions and
discern that indefinite u~ndefinable
something which betokens sincerity
and earnestness or betrays pretense
and hypocrisy. 1t is claimed that the
big church hat Is "a deterrent OF
religion, an obstacle to righteous
conviction, a feathered and ribboned
stumbling-block." This is somewhat
extreme, mildly speaking, but there is
no question about the disagreeableness
Of having a little forest OF straw, nod
ding plumes, flowers and foliage, with
clouds of flmy material pulled and
draped, stretched row after row in
front Of you and through which it is
impossible to see. Neither can you see
over it. Even in Grenada we hear the
~mutterings of opposition to the big
church hat, as quite a number OF ladies
and gentlemen have been discussing
the Inconvenience, not to say the dis
comfort Of it during the crowded
meetings this week at the Presbyterian
church. We would suggest, as a trial,
that all the ladies who year p~rofusion
OF tall millinery occupy the same side
Of the church and see how they like it.
10 the language OF a popular preacher:
"These high hats are an a~bomination,
to say the least OF it,"

REV. j. ID: THINNING
Closed His Revival Meeting at the
Presbyterian Church,
AND REV. j. B. CULPEPPER OPENS UP AT
THE oMErHoDIsT CHURCH.

The Revival meeting at the Presby'
terrain Church, conducted by Rev. J
d. Flemming, OF Memphis, closed
Thursday night. The services com
menced April 22nd. and the meetings
both morning and evening have beer
largely attended. Much interest was
manifested and "a number of professions
OF religion we're made. That he has
accomplished good both in and out OF
the churches, goes without saying.
He is an earnest, forcible and energet,
ic preacher-full Of fire and very zeal
Gus inl the cause. Some Of his:sermons
were rare gems OF thought and logic,
while in some instances, when wrought
up by the fervor Of his feeling, were
entirely too broad and sweeping. Like
most, If not all, Evangelists, he said a
few things that would have been
much better unsaid. But preachers,
like other mortals are prone to error,
at times. We regard Mr.. Thinning as
a good. worthy and pure christian min
lister, and all In all, is doing good work
for his Master.
Rev. j. B. Culpepper, a noted Evan
gelist, commenced a Revival at the
Methodist church yesterday friday
morning, which will be continued for

Rev. o. P. C%ulpepper, and Prof. J. A.
Carroll OF Memphis, will lead in the
singing. We hope the meeting will
prove a most s,' scessiful one.
