of oliver Presbyterian .
Church

Rev. H. H. Presley, pastor of Oliver
Presbyterian church, and recently elected
moderator of the Presbyterian synod,
preached his farewell sermon yesterday
forenoon. The sermon was brief resume
of his work in the church since 1899. Since
June Of that year, when Mr.. PRESLEY took
charge, a mortgage Of $4,000 has been re-
duced to $4,000, which is now in the form
of a loan from the Presbyterian Board OF
Church Education. The floating debt OF
$1,000 has been reduced to $500 and this
too, is largely due to the energy of the re-
firing pastor. In membership the church
has increased by rinety-eigh
MI. Presley will start for Albemarle, N
c., this week. While there he will take
charge of a little mission church now
struggling for existence. Mr.. rPessley has
not yet decided whether to remain in the
south or to return to Minneapolis. -.

Human Nature III Business

Both the "cussedness' and the sweet
ness Of human nature are seen in exag
gerated lights in the business Of every
day life. Some men are related in bust
ness for a life time, adding each day to
their mutual respect; others, equally fine
men, continually disagree and find their
relations the most unpleasant thing in
their life. The reason is often matter
Of mere chance. A tired man Is generally
irritable and unfit for work: a man who
uses golden grain belt beer regularly is
healthy and happy. He sees things
sauarely and fairly and finds business q
pleasure. ]. # you don't use this beer reg
ularly, you are missing one Of the good
things Of life. It will pay you to order
to-day.

made to conflict God and man hath joined them together, let not man put them asunder.' Let 6 men be fervent in both, intensely earnest in his business, intensely earnest in his religion, and feel that he Is serving God in both, and as truly in one as the other. Religion should not discard business, as the old mendi- cant friars used to do; nor should 1t cry down business; but the church should cherish all lawful business and business men and give them her sympathy and prayers and loving aid. On the other hand. business should not banish relig- ion, as Is too often the case. Dr. Thain Davidson tells of asking a business man when he was going to think of eternity and come to the house of God, and he re- piled: I know I ought to come, but 1t Is of no use; my mind is so full of business I can think of nothing else.' In his eager pursuit of business he was ruling out religion. Business should not dispense with religious principles. They should be carried .hto every transaction.
 Tt may be difficult to do where so many do otherwise. But after all, relig- ion is the more important: for when bus mess is all over on earth and the still hands are folded across the unheaving breast your religion remains with you and Is the wings on which your soul as- cends to a better world and nobler sphere of labor. Then, whatever you do, succeed in religion, even If you fall in business, which you need not do. For if you fail in business and succeed In re- ligion you have a blessed eternity for new trial. But if you succeed in busi- ness and fail in religion, all is lost. For what shall 1t profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soulT Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? Wherefore, my brethren, let us all be not slothful in business, fervent in spirit. serving the Lord ."

TRADES COUNCIL.
Troubles of Electrical Workers Dls-
 cussed at Special Meeting.

The Birmingham Trades Council held a special meeting at Briokayers Hall yesterday afternoon and considered grie- vances presented by the Plumbers Un- ion, the Painters Union and the Steam Engineers Union and heard the report of the grievance committee on the grie- vance presented at the last meeting by the Electrical Workers Union. The two firms that refused to sign the Electrical Workers scale of s2.5O per day for nine hours work were placed on the unfair list.
 The demand of the Plumbers for eight hours day and S4,00 was endorsed, which gives the moral support by the council to the deman~. The grievance against the different master plumbers was turned over to the grievance committee with in- structions to report at the next meeting which is next Sunday. About half the employing plumbers have signed the scale and over half of the men are at work. The grievances presented by other unions were referred to the grievance committee and the council adjourned.

 Whereas, Words are feeble to carry consolation to the hearts bereaved of loving and affectionate father. husband and friend-a man who stood without a peer as an example of Christian forti- tude, charity and gentility, brave in danger and pure in thought action and deed. No one can fill his place in the home where he was as d gleam of sun shine; no one can occupy his place in the afflicted hearts. and we would not have the void filled even If Ue could It will be a sacred thought in years to come, to family and friends, that he shed radiance in the home as long as he did and:
 Whereas, It has pleased the Omnipotent who doeth all things well, to remove from among us William F. Walton-a man and friend whom 1t was good to know, and be loved by, and
