the State from wreck and ruin. Will
you do il? One thing is certain, you
can't do it unless you register.

Sunday in Our Churches.

Rev. DR.. Hatcher, Of Richmond, oc-
cupied the pulpit Of the Baptist church
at the morning service, and preached
a most acceptable and helpful sermon.
After the preaching service be present
ed in a few words the cause Of edu-
cation under Baptist auspices in the
State. The doctor came up from Rice
on the afternoon train Of Saturday, and
was compelled to return to Richmond
on the evening train Of the n. & w,
not before, however he had gotten a
drink Of lithia fresh from the Farm
vile spring, Virginia's most noted
health fountain.
Mrs. DR.. Sears organized a Sunday
school class Of young ladies at the Nor
NAL who are associated with the
Christian church, and this, We are ad-
vised, will be taught in the Baptist
lecture room, and in connection with
the Sunday school Of that church.
A union meeting in the interest Of
general Sunday school work in Farm
vile, was announced for p. m. at the
Presbyterian church, but owing to the
rain the attendance was so small that
il was thought advisable 10 postpone
the meeting and this was done. 1t
will be held at the same place and
Io,r ,axt Eupdo,- xr-aok
There were no other special services
at our churches, but the work Of the
pastors was well in hand and being
pressed to the glory Of God and the
good Of man.
DR.. Harding will close his career as
pastor OF the Presbyterian congrega-
ton next Sunday, but has expressly
announced that he will not attempt to
preach a farewell sermon for the good
reason that he is afraid to attempt it,
A stranger attended the services at
this church on Sunday evening, and st
the close Of the sermon turned TO a
regular attendant who sat 10y him, and
said: "Are you accustomed to such
sermons every Sunday" 1t was one
Of the best Of the many noble sermons
the gifted preacher has been preach
ing Of late.
With these sermons a. with so many
other blessings "they brighten as they
take their flight"
A young man who heard the Rev.
DR.. Potts on Sunday evening, was
heard 10 say: chat was the most
helpful sermon / ever heard"
SO let US hope that all Farmville
came out Of the privileges Of another
Sunday, stronger, better and happier.

Surprise Marriage.

AT 10 o'clock yesterday morning
Miss Mamie w Bidgood became the
bride Of Mr.. Steward V. V. Prince.
The marriage Of this young couple
was in the nature Of a surprise to
many, as there had been no announce
ment Of their intentions. The cere-
mony, which was performed by Rev
Dr. Potts, was witnessed by only few
special friends in addition 10 the inn
mediate family Of the bride. II took
place in the home Of DIR. and Mrs. r.
NJ. Bidgood, and the only attendants
were Miss Kate Nerser and Miss sallie
Bidgood, sister Of the bride.
The bride was dressed in white or
CANDY and carried large bouquet Of
bride roses.
After the ceremony Mr.. and Mrs.
Prince boarded the lO45.o'clock train
for a bridal trip. and returning they
will make their home in Hampton,
Va, at which city Mr.. Prince Is a well |
known real estate broker.

Show DAr.

Yes, the circus was here, and most
everybody else. Perhaps with the ex-
ception Of a few Fair days, Farmville
never entertained a larger crowd. And
it was orderly, cheerful, good humored,
and We hope, had a good time. The
performance was satisfactory 10 most
people; rather too much at one time
for some, and not quite enough for
Others. The clown jokes are not quite
a. much in evidence, now that the
show has come and gone, as We have
sometimes known, and there is a mark
ed absence Of show songs. Farmville
must have made money by the coming
Of the show, but the community at
large must have lost, for the show
couldn't live unless it made money

good for most men,"

Autumn was busy dressing the leaves

men were building and Frightening
new homes, the grass plots were still
clinging TO the green, some birds were
singing in the tree tops, happy chill
dren were hurrying to school, bush
ness men were speeding to the store
the sun was flooding the whole with a
sheen Of glory and every prospect was
pleasing. The people Of Farmyille
may well say: "Ours is a goOdly heri-
tage." LISTENER.
The Farmville herald. [volume] (Farmville, Va.) 1890-1934, 1902-09-26

Editor Hcrald'-I do not believe that
Farmyille's man, mule and cart are
fully appreciated. remember years
ago walking down your main street
one Sunday morning, and to have
been shocked at the unsighuy Satur-
day night sweepings all gathered In
repulsiye heaps on side walks and
streets. l walked along the same
streets on last Sunday morning, and
all was clean, and slightly. Not an
offensive pile to be seen, and scarce a
scrap Of paper.
Credit for this change is due to man,
muleand cart. Let us deal with them
tenderly and handle them with care
for they are doing a splendid service.
And do you know who suggested the
mule aud cart? Consult the files Of
Of your o1ce contemporary, the Jour-
mai, and you will know.
