The splendid results of the effor's s
put forth by the pastor, trustees and
members of the A. M. e. church here
to raise $500 to be applied toward the
liquidation OF the church debt, has
aroused the most favorable comment
Probably none were more surprised by
the unexpected success than the charch
members themselves. The seemingly
impossible nature of the project and

warned him to be prepared for keen
disappointment, "for," said he, you
will never succeed IN raising the sum
you want" Without the shadow Of a
doubt or the slightest hesitation, Rev.
Morris replied, "sir, will raise every
cent Of the $500 before our grand rally"
His answer was, eff you dc, come to
me and as poor as am I will contrib
ute another dollar" His dollar was
collected.
Rev. Joseph E. Norris, the man who
accom- pIished so much in such a short
time, was born in Lancaster, Co. Pa 1,
in 1867 and, is consequently, SO years
ofage. After deciding to make the
ministry his life work, he, by d1nt of
hard labor and much personal saeri
flee prepared himself for the profession
and was ordained in 1899 Previous to
his ordination he officiated in Orlean,
N. Y, W. Middleton, Pa, and Parkers
burg, W. Va, remaining at each place
one year. After being ordained in
o October of last year, he was assigned
10 this field and it was fortunate se'
lection for this church. When he as
sumed the pastorate of the church, the
total indebtedness was about five hun
dred and twenty dollars. This has
now been reduced to about two hun
dred and fifty dollars, so that this
splendid church property with a valu'
alton of about four thousand dollars is

zeal and fervor have increased the at
tendance until the seating capacity of
the church is frequently tested.
Personally he is very agreeable gen.

much to attract the people and doubt
less had much to do with his success
In obtaining subscriptions from those
not disposed to be generous under ordi'
asry circumstances. The vested choir
of this church is an important auxili
ary to the pastor and has proven to be
q strong attraction. 1t is under the di.
rection Of Prof. 8. 81. Guss who is the
recipient of many congratulations be

table style OF this choir one of the
white pastors unhesitatingly said that
it compared favorably with any in the
city. I predict bright and succ essful
future for Rev. Morris and it will be
well to watch his career. His cons ci-
entious efforts and hard work will un-
doubtedly bring to him honors well
earned. E. W. HENRY,

the magnitude of the WORK accom-.
plished can hardly be understood by
one not acquainted with the conditions
which obtain here. The colored popu.
lation of this city is about 600. The
membership of the largest colored
church is about one hundred, while the
A. n. e. church, which is In the most
prosperous condition, enrolls forty
members. 1t Is surprising to note the
fact that only three males are included
in this number, hence the A. M. E.
Connection owes much to the 81 ladies
who have Isbored so faithfully to sus-
tain the church. A few weeks ago the
pastor and the board of Trustees com
posed of Messrs. M. W. Grayson, Will
liam NJ. Wilkinson, Sherman 81 Guss,
Harry Green and Allen Lee, determined
to make an effort to raise the sum stat
ed above and issued an appeal to the
public through the columns Of the local
papers. The pastor assisted by the
members and friends of the church i'm.
mediateIy entered upon the task set
before them, and met with success
which exceeded even their fondst
hopes.
In addition to the subscriptions COL
lected, several entertainments were
given which materially aided the pas
tor In his efforts to secure the hoped
for sum. Among them was box social
by Mrs. Thomas Weilman, concert
and festival by Mesdames Guss, West
and Henry, and graphaphone concert
by Rev. Thomas Cooke OF Christ Epis

al efforts and he modestly refers TO it
as '.happy result brought about by
Providence" He solicited subscrlp'
tIons not alone in this city but visited
adjacent towns and by his earnest de-
meanor and courteous manner secured
beth friends and money. The credit
for this highly satisfactory work Is due
mainly to the magnificent work OF the
bright young pastor, Rev. J. E. Morris.
He has been here but short time and
his earnest and untiring efforts have
already borne good fruit. which Is seen
in the increased attendance at Sunday
services, the organization Of lyceum,
the erection Of pulpit platform, the
substitution of natural gas for heating
and lighting purposes and other i'm.
provements. When he announced bis
