Chaires Locals and Personals.
CHAIREs, Sept. 8, 1908 The series
of services in the Methodist church here
closed Friday evening with practical
and logical sermon of advice by our
much esteemed pastor, whose personal
work for the spiritual welfare OF his
members aided largely in the success of
the meeting. Rev. A. r. Householder
remained till Friday afternoon render
ing much effectual service. This holy
man of God would come to every SER
vice fresh from the secret place Of the
Most High with the old but ever new
story of the cross uttered with simplic-
ity but with directness of appeal and
much pathos which could not fail to
reach human hearts. Some became
interested who never have before.
While it is plainly evident much good
remains yet TO be done. Mr.. House
holder held up such high standard of
living, such holy aspirations to the
young and such thoroughly good advice
to parents, that we are constrained to
believe as the years go by much good
will result 70 those who were 80 fortu-
cate as TO come under the influence of
this man. The church is edited, and
some think in some respects this meet
ing is the best ever held here. The
people of Chaires certainly appreciate
Mr. Householder's efforts in their be-
half, and will ever hold him, as they
always have. in their highest esteem,
hoping he may live long as a true la
borer in the Masters vineyard.
