CHEswoLD, Dec. 11.-Cheswold is al
ways a good egg market. There is |
a spirited competition existing with |
our egg dealers and they are bringing |
the farmer top prices.
Our stores are putting their various |
Christmas attractions in place for the |
holiday trade. The merchants are
anticipating good trade.
Cheswold Sunday School owning to
revival meetings now in progress and
the extra duties in our homes incident
to the preparations for Christmas fest
lvities have decided not to prepare a
public entertainment this year but will
simply give the children treat.
Pastor Edwin Gardner preached at
Brenford Sunday morning and Rev.
G. X. Illick preached in his stead a
sermon which seemed especially pleas
ing to the audience, based upon the
similitude of the laborers in the vim
yard. One person said of it: "That is
what call sweet gospel sermon.
Pastor Gardner preached at evening
also very beautiful and appropriate
discourse on "Taints of Sin" based on
the eighteenth verse of the first chap
ter of Isaiah. A feature of the dis
course was the illustration by chemi-
calls of the cleaning and purifying
power of the blood of the atonement.
In the early part of evening services
at Cheswold Sunday Wilson T. Buck
son, who being endowed with gifts for
the honors, was called to the front by
pastor Gardner and with a short i'm
pressive ceremony was given license
as an exhOrter.
The extra meetings at Cheswold,
have not at this writing developed the
interest there was hoped for. they
are continued through this week. The
meetings at Central are said to be full
of interest and fire.
