Woodmore the Place for a Dc

To the Editor of The Robesonian:
We learn, or we believe. that
there is going to be a depot some
where between Powersville and
St: Paul's, and if we take every
thing under consideration that
is to benefit the most people at
large, both east and west, on
each side of the railroad. we
must say Woodmore is the place
for the depot. There is a new
public road from Saddle Tree
nearly a direct line by DR.. S. B.
Rozler's, crossing the railroad at
this place, which would give a
good outlet each way, and it
would only be about 8 miles from
Woodmore to Saddle Tree, which
IS a great farming section. And
then If we go eastward, towards
Iolarsvllle, we find another good
farming section and it would on
~ be about 2 miles out to Ten
Mile church and we do not be-
lieve there is a better place on
the road for a depot than at
Woodmore.
In speaking of this place for
a depot, DR.. R. G. Rozier said
recently, with this public road
completed there is not a better
place on the line for depot than
at this place; that it would give
a good outlet each way to both
these great farming sections
and that Mr.. Gilmore had bought
a large amount of timber from

DR. Buck has been absent nearly three
years. During this time he has trav-
eled extensively particularly in the
Middle and Far West. A great deal
of the time was spent in Canada. DR..
Buck said to a Globe reporter that al
though he had been out of Nashville,
his interest was here and he had kept
up with the happenings of Nashville
each week. He said that he had been
able to do this because he had kept
up with every issue of the Nashville
Globe, which was the only possible
medium through which the complete
news of Nashville could reach him.
He has spoken Of the Globe as high
class newspaper before many audi
ences numbering hundred of people.

ANNUAL BANQUET TO REV. AND
MRS. BELL AT CHATTANOOGA.

Probably the most pleasant and up
to-date social event among church
folks for many years, was the annual
banquet given by the officers of the
First Baptist Church and their wives,
in honor of Rev. and Mrs. G. A. Bell,
at the parsonage, 627 East Eighth
street, Monday evening, January 4.
The color scheme was green and white
and was carried out to the minutest
detail. Covers were laid for thirty.
Those invited were the pastor, Rev.
Charles Augustus and Mrs. Bell, Chair
man, Mrs. Wilson, Deacon and Mrs.
Lane, Deacon and Mrs. Farris, Deacon
and Mrs. Prater, Deacon and Mrs.
Bynes, Deacon and Miss Cox, Deacon
and Mrs. Cottrell, Trustee White and
Mrs. Phillips, Trustee Barner and
Mrs. Webster, Trustee and Mrs. Turn
er, Trustee and Mrs. Fagala, Secretary,
and Mrs. J. M Easterling, and Trustee
Smith, Mrs. Bishop, Misses Byrd and
Barner, Trustee and Mrs. G. V. Easter
ling.
Col. J. M. Easterling acted as toast
master. The menu, which was one Of
the finest, from culinary standpoint,
ever presented, was under the supervi-
sion of Messrs. Houston and Black,
Chattanooga leading caterers, and
the services were as near perfect as
the surrounding circumstances would
permit. Aside from carrying out a
program, interesting talks were given
by the pastor and others on the prog
ress the church was making along all
lines and especial emphasis was laid
on the peace and tranquility that has
prevailed throughout the pastorate of
Rev. Bell. At $3.50 Col. Easterling
wrapped for order and all were seated.
Probably no more representative body
Of Christian men and women was
ever seated around the festal board in
Chattanooga. Rev. L. G. Jordan, D.
D., Secretary of the Foreign Mission
Board Of the National Baptist Con-
vention, who had been a welcome Wis
itor in Chattanooga during Saturday
and Sunday last, and who, it was
hoped, would be present with us on
this occasion, received an important
message and was compelled to leave
at o'clock on Monday afternoon. At
11:30 p. M, the merry party disband-
ed, and to use the phraseology of
Chairman Wilson, every rat went to
his hole"

National Baptist Publishing Board,
and another to the Nashville Globe
and it's editor, ]. o. Battle. The next
speaker was w. S. Ellington, D. D.,
the Editorial Secretary. Dr. Filing
ton stated that he was like the Irish
man who was asked, after a hard fall,
if he was dead. To which the Irish
man responded, mo, Mike, am not
dead, but speeches." DR.. Ellington
concluded by saying that while he did
not mean to be sacrilegious, he wished
that the Lord might see fit to allow
DR.. Boyd to remain an indefinite time.
That since Methuselah stayed here
over 900 years the Lord might allow
us to have our DR.. Boyd for an extra
length of time that he might do more
and greater good. 1t was 1880 before
dinner was finished, hence the re-
mainder of the day was observed as
New Years Day.
In responding to the presentation
speeches, DR.. Boyd declared that he
was unable to sufficiently express his
appreciation. That for three consecu-
tive New Years he had been presented
with a present. On New Years, 1908,
he was presented with a gold watch
and chain with wish that he would
live hundred years to wear the
watch, and that it should then be
passed to a grandson of his, Richard
Henry Boyd, Ill, and that he could
only say that he wished now to live
the ninety-nine years that he might
wear the charm with It.
