ties here. He Immediately secured

developed his property so extensively
that he says it should be called a
mine instead of a prospect.
One of the owners of the Dagger
Well property was in yesterday and
says that development work is going
on steadily. and that they are strik-
ing some very good ore. The Dagger
Well proper is about five miles

Frazier & Straight are gradually
forging ahead in their aim to create
a merchandise emporium here Their
first start was in buying out Bill
ThOmpson's cold drink establishment
some three months ago. Their next
move was to put in a line of shoes.
Then an addition was made in the
hosiery and neckwear line Their
latest move, and one which has Just
been added, is a line of mems under
wear. overshirts and overaIls. Slow
but sure progress from working men
to business men. We hope they will
keep climbing. as they got their start
working for it at hard labor like
the rest of us and not by any conf

TO all ,htse The relations CT the
council is one of utmost cordiality.
Your committee therefore recon-
mends the following resolutions:
|. That it is the sense or this
council that the Observation-Disclosures
organizations of the United States
by cooperation along special lines
of Christian effort have done much
to prepare the way for the broader
cooperative work contempla; ed by this
body.
.. That the work SO successfully
carried on by them demonstrates the
practicability and wisdom Of Gederat-
ed Christian enterprise and gives
promise Of success to the plans that
may be adopted by this council.
3. That we recognize these var
ious organizations as an integral part
OF The church, lTing;ng into effect
no small share Of the work committed
TO her hands, and that we therefore
heartily commend them to The con-
fidence, sympathy and generous sup
port OF the churches.
t. That while We give our en-
dOrS ement to such organizations as
are plainly Christian ami interdeIomi-
national in character and are so re-
garded generally. these rcsolu1 'ons are
not to be construed as commencing
every undcnOminatiCnal organization
that carries On some form of good
work. perhaps not diStinctiveiy It lig-
for assistance.
>. That il is our conviction thar
the plan of work which this council
will take up will be so comprehensive
as to make unnecessary the further
increase in the number of undenomi-
national or INSTRUMENTATION Or
CARNATIONS for special work. and will
thus protect the churches from many
appeals for aid which tend TO dissi-
pate the energy of the churches and
to divert the stream Of their bsnevo-
lence from the regular and recognized
channels
g. That all organizations asking
regular financial assistance from the
churches be requested to file an an
nual statement of receipts and eX-
penditures with the executive com
mittce Of the federal council. togeth-

The case is that of X. D, Taylor.
Upon former petition writ OF
error was denied by the upper court

ment of the court below. Taylor who
is drug clerk in Norfolk, ordered

Henderson, n c.
The package came to Norfolk and
was refused by Taylor.

ed his request to reShip to Henderson
because the company had no office

Finally Taylor had a man receive

Company and take it to the southern
Company for shipment to Henderson.
Taylor came to Jones' rescue, exon
Grating him from any violation OF the
law, himself aS*umiAg the ownership
