The water famine at Charlotte has
thoroughly aroused the sympathy
and interest of the entire State, and
it is therefore a source OF genuine sat
isfaction to everybody that the dis
tressing situation has been much re-
lieved largely by the constant opera
tion of tank trains which are hauling
water day and night from the Ca
tawba river to the city. Had not
the SeabOard Air Line and some Oi
the patriotic citizens of Charlotte
come to the rescue in time, untold
suffering in the city might have been
the inevitable result. 1t seems that
the board of aldermen were overly
wise and persistently turned a deaf
ear to all warnings until the famine
was right upon the city, and even
then they had to turn the matter OF
supplying the city over to wiser men
who had sounded a timely warning
of what was coming. 1t is a great
pity for any city or town to be al
flicted with q top-heavy municipal
government whose inefficiency never
fails to show up very cOnspicuously
at critical points.

Fifth Sunday Meeting.

The Vance County Baptist Union met
with the New Bethel Church Saturday
and Sunday, July 29-3O. The writer
was not present at the meeting Satur-
day, but we were told that the attend
ance was fairly good. When we reached
the grounds Sunday morning we found
the grove filled with horses and buggies
and a large congregation already as
sembled in the church. Officers were
elected for the ensuing year. Mr.. W. B..
Daniel, who has served as president OF
the Union since its organization, asked
to be relieved, and Mr.. r. l.. Bennett, of
Middleburg, was elected in his place.
Mr.. W. W. Parker, Notwithstanding his
protests, was unanimously elected as
treasurer. Mr. Il. NJ. Pittman resigned
as chairman of the executive committee,
and Rev. f. K. Nelson was elected in his
stead. Mr.. Calvin Short was reelected
as secretary. The First Church at Hen
dersOn and the church at Middleburg
both invited the Union for the next ses-
sion but the committeeAdecided in favor
of Middleburg.
The morning sermon was preached by
Rev. E. r. Nelson He spoke impressive
ly of the world wide opportunity before
the Church, and OF the accompanying OBJ
legations.
Dinner came next, and we have seen
none in North Carolina that surpassed
it for quantity and quality. The crowd
which had continued to grow right up
to the noon hour, was immense, but
there was an abundance for all.
We have spoken of the dinner with q
double motive. We would place crown
on the brow of each one who labored to
prepare it. In the devotion of our wo-
men to their church there is something
that is well-nigh pathetic. They will
make personal sacrifices of their time
and leisure and labor that frequently
put the rest of us to shame. We feel
grieved if this labor has to be expended
in vain. And it is just this that hap
pened, to some extent, in case of our
meeting. 1t was the occasion of con
verting a religious gathering into a pic
mic. The evening session, which should
have been the most important OF the
day, was a disappointment to all con
cerned-it must have been especially so
to those who prepared the dinner. A
mere handful came into the house to re
sumo the services, and these were dis
tracted by those who loitered on the
grounds We are delighted to have as
our guests on these occasions all who
are willing to join with us in making a
success of the meetings as we'll as OF the
dinners.
At this session the representation from
the churches was the best in the history
Of the Union. There was some one pres
ent from each Of the thirteen churches of
the county.
This meeting of the Union provided
the first occasion this writer has had of
visiting New Bethel. We were delighted
with the evident prosperity of the
Church and the entire community. We
are proud to claim from this section one
hundred and seventy five members OF
our Baptist brotherhood and sister

Some of the citizens of Charlotte,
in view Of the water famine, strongly
advocated praying for rain, while
Others took what seemed to them to
be more practical solution Of the
matter and hastened to the Cataw-
ba river for a water supply. And 1t
is noteworthy in passing that the
latter won out first 1t is all right
and proper to pray for rain, and
quite possibly there has been too lit
tie OF that sort OF thing in North
Carolina this summer. But the Book
OF all books tells us to watch as well
as pray, and the water famine at
Charlotte seems to have been largely
due to the fact that the city WAS al
fiicted with a short-sighted munich
pal government which had failed in
the face of timely warnings from Wis
er heads to make provision for an
adequate water supply III times of
severe drought.

Engagement of Miss Cooper An
nounced.

A brilliant social affair was that given
Tuesday afternoon of this week at the
elegant home of Mr.. ID. Y. Cooper, or
North Garnett street, when his daugh-
ter, Miss Genevieve Cooper, entertained
at luncheon to announce the engage
ment of her cousin, Miss Lucille Cooper
Of Waco, Tex, to Mr.. Walter Garner
Lacy, also Of Waco.
Shackman, of New York furnished the
hand-painted place cards, each card sug-
gesting some individuality Of the guesl
whose place it marked.
The white satin wedding slippers filled
with salted almonds and souvenirs were
unique. Miniature carriages with the
bride and groom starting on their wed
ding Journey, with white satin stream
ers bearing the inscription, "Miss Lucille
Cooper. Mr.. Walter Garner Lacy, Nov
30, 10l1," annOuced the engagement.
The centerpiece was rustic basket
filled with lilies OF the valley and maid
enhair fern, and the entire luncheon was
carried cut in green and white.
Every course showed the. originality
OF the hostess, and the plates with the
tiny brides bouquets, perfect even to
the tinfOil, made the salad most attrac-
tive.
The bride-elect was lovely in white
lace over Nile green satin, with corsage
bouquet of lilies of the valley and or
chids sent to her for the occasion by her
fiance
Miss Geneveive was charmingly gown
ed in white embroidered voiIe with
touches of green.
The guests were Misses Julia Cooper,
Rebecca Watkins, Maria Tucker, Mary
Perry, Claudia Hunter. Irene Belts,
Laurine Dorsey, Jessie Harris and Mrs.
b. Frank Harris.
During her several visits to Hender-
son, Miss Cooper has by her charming
personality made many friends in this
her fathers native State, who will read
with interest of her engagement.
The bride-elect is the only daughter ol
Mr.. and Mrs. NJ. A. Cooper, of Waco
Tex, and a niece of Mr.. d. Y. Cooper, ol

Mr.. Lacy is a prominent young bust
ness man of Waco, and is a leader of the

Big Sunday School Conference.

The Sunday school con ference at Plank
Chapel last Saturday was Il largely at
tended and most enjoyable occasion. An
interesting and instructive program.
consisting of songs, essays, music and
addresses, was successfully carried out.
All regretted the enforced absence OF
Rev. A. NJ. Jones aud Rev. W. R. Royal,
but their places on the program were ad-
mirably filled by Mr. S r. Harri- and
Rev Mr.. Bethea.
The papers furnished by the Sunday
school workers, ladies from the various
churches, were all we'll prepared and well
received Prof Gill made most excel
lent address, emphasizing more strongly
than any other point as regards the pas
tors relation to the Sunday school that
of his duty and opportunity of giving to
the youth Of the Church a safe and
sane view of the Bible. His remarks
were very practical and suggestive.
The musical contest was the drawing
card and everybody appeared to enjoy
the songs rendered by the four schools
entering the list. The music was in
every case much better than at the con
ference last year Each school gave evi-
dence Of more thorough preparation
The judges insisted that they had The
usual difficult task" of deciding who
deserved the Prize Banner offered to the
school that excalled, but they finally
awarded it to the kittrell school. Every
one felt that their Judgment was just
for their selections, u.I,ic, the leadership
of Mr. Lewis Moss, were splendidiy ren
dered. Rev. Mr.. Bethea, in a very witty
speech, presented the banner, which was
received in most happy manner by Mr.
Hester, of the Kittrell school,
The attendance was very gratifying
to the hosts of the occasion, the Plank
Chapel folks" There were in the
neighborhood of thousand people
present. There was hospitality and din
ner in abundance and all felt that it was
good to be there, if one can Judge from
appearances. Much good must come
from these gatherings together in Sun.
day school or other work for mutual in.
terchange of thought and ideas.
The Circuit Conference will Ee held at
Piny Grove next year. The newly
elected president. Mr.. W. A. Jones, is su-
perintendent of the school there-his in
vitation was too urgent to be denied.
The other officers are ]. T. Phelps, vice
president; Z. l.. Rogers, secretary treas

The Senate on Tuesday, by a Goa
htion OF Democrats and Republican
insurgents, passed a farmers free
list bill, after the original House bill
had failed to pass by a tie vote. One
more Democratic Senator would
have been sufficient to pass the orig
inal House bill. Had Senator Bail
ey, OF Texas, voted with his Demo-
cratic colleagues, or had Senator
Hoke Smith, OF Georgia, been in his
seat In the Senate and voted with
the Democrats, the original House
bill would have been passed in spite
OF all opposition. The bill llpassed by
the Senate is not so good as the
House bill, but it Was the best the
Democrats could do at this time and
) that, too, by joining hands with the
lnsuEgent Republicans, who refused
TO support the House bill. Leading
Democrats in Congress think they
gained victory, however, in the
bill passed, and seem to be highly
pleased with it. But of course they
would have been much better pleas
ed with the original House bill if
they could have gotten it through.

Better is friend who censures
than an enemy who fiatters. The
Gold Leaf understands very we'll
that it has no more loyal friend in
Henderson than Mr.. S. T. Peace.
even il he is after 1t this week with a
cudgel, and nobody's back is up at
him in this shop either. He will be
welcome to piece of our hide every
time he thinks he needs it. Public
institutions as we'll as public men
should never think themselves above
criticism, and the very minute they
ever get the notion in their heads
that they should not be criticised
publicly, that very minute their USE
fulness is on the wane.
