ist church: Rev. G. I. Adams. pastor OF
Central Methodist church; Rev. NJ. NJ.
Mcfarland. pastor of Brooklyn and Mace
donia Methodist churches, and Rev.
Marvin Culbreth, pastor OF Epworth
Methodist church. Besides these Rev. L,
II. Ivcy. editor of the Raleigh Christian
Advocate, also left.
Messrs. Smith, Adams and McFarian
have served their charges for four years
and will be sent to new fields of work.
Mr.. Cubreth has served his, church three

or 200 parties who have failed 10 pay their
sanitary tax. This is duty imposed upon
him by law and he has no discretion in
the matter. The fand derived from this
tax y used to defray the expense of keep
