Rural Letter Carriers Meeting.

-
On May aOtb, at 100 p. m, the Ru-
raj Letter Carriers Association of Hen
derson County. met at the court house
and held a meeting that was enjoyed by
all present. The main object of the
meeting being to elect a delegate to the
State Association that meets at Durham,
N. c., July srd and 4th.
The result Of the election being that
w. A. Williams was elected delegate
and Jesse o. johnson, alternate.
The Association instructed the dele
gate to do all in his power to get the
State Association to formulate some
plan of horse insurance, and a sick bene-
fit policy.
At the present high prices of feed
stuff a rural carrier cannot afford to
lose a horse.
For should he meet with such mis-
fortune he could uot save enough money
in a year to replace him.
We don't lose a horse often but the
thing we want 10 when we do have such
o misfortune to be In shape to get IN
other one at nee
There is some twelve or thirteen hun
dred carriers in North Carolina, and al
ofthem have to have from W to four
horses to carry on their work.
A small premium paid per annum by
each of this great body of carriers would
constitute a sufficient fund to repay any
carrier if he should lose a horse. A
small amount paid each year will pro
tect the carrier from loss on horses anC
yet the premium would be so small thai
the carrier would hardly miss it. Ru
raj carriers of Henderion county Lett
get to work and get this county thour-
oughly organized by the time the Stat,
meeting is pulled off at Durham, Jul!
Srd and 4th. Let's help get this grea
scheme going ut one that will mean 81
much to all the carriers.
This county association will have
Jubilee meeting at the court house, tul,

 Blshop floss is one of the strongest men qf his denomination, for long time being editor of the Nashville Christian. Advocate. He has also been greatly in strumental in establishing the church in South America and the western states.
 Conference opened by singing, and prayer by the bishop, after which he read from the fifth chapter of First John. He then gave a very forceful and elo- quent address in which he beautifully exemplified what the life of the Chris tian is.
 Breaches on the Christian.
 The bishop condemned the idea of it's being limp pr lame thing. Said the bishop: Tt is life of triumph over the world, the flesh and the devil: and instead of being life of mournful sounds and sad songs, it is one of glad ness ana Joy and victorious shoutngs. the fact that We are a part of the world, entansled and entwisted with the world should make it easier for us to overcome. The last thought is: How can we come out yictors in the fight? By faith in God through Jesus Christ-not a general faith but specific, living, vital faith in Him who went down into the grave, wrestled with death, and came out conqueror. Faith in Him it is which enables the children of men to overcome the world"

 Chairman Ransdel then introduced to the congress Hou. Cyrus F. Walbridge of St. Louis, former mayor of that city, who reviewed the work of the Lakes to the Gulf Waterways association and the pres ent status of the association. He said that the work of the association was in the hands of 20 members, including the governors of several states. The object was to promote the construction of ship channel at least II feet deep from the lakes to the Gulf of Mexico. Such a waterway, he said. would extend from the coast line 15O0 miles into the interior country, and it's effect would be to create with the Erie canal continuous interna- tional waterway from the city of New York to New Orleans. He pointed out that much of this work had been done; that 45 miles already had been excavated south from Chicago and that the state of Illinois was proposing an issue of S20.- GOO 900 of bonds to continue the project The one criticism that had been made of the project was that 1t was sectional. But" said the speaker, .l want to say that our association has no more hearty supporters no men who will fight harder for the advancement of our enterprise than the men of the Mississippi valley. Wherever you lead, MT. President, we will follow. The Lakes to the Gulf as- socation is national in its scope.

South America Ahead.

Mr. Barrett called attention to the fact that the republics of Central and South America were spending more money on the improvement of rivers and harbors in proportion to their population and ability than the United States. He said that if we are to spend $500 ,OO0 on the Panama canal, and he did not doubt that such sum would be necessary to com plete the great waterway, we ought to devote a like sum to the improvement of our own rivers and harbors n order that we might have ihe facilities for the Transportation of American products to all parts of the world.
