SERVERS Of JESUS
REAL A8lsT0CRATs


..If you posaS The spirit of Jesus
IChriek you belong to the elite OF the
earth. no matter how poor you may
be An wealth. how humble In birth. or
how obscure In social position" the
Rev. Charles III. Beale. Of Milwaukee.
told the large audience, In the Do
troit opera house. Friday. at the noon
day interdenominational Lenten ser
vice
The crowd was the largest OF the
week. with all of the lower floor filled
and more than half OF the balcony.
while late comers stood crowded to
the walls inside the foyer.
1T looks to many today as though
the great prizes of the earth such as
wealth, luxury, position and ease We're
the greatest things TO be desired.
continued the speaker. "but / repeat
that the most aristocratic and the
wealthiest human being Ii the fol-
lower Of the Lamb Of God.
In the course OF his brief talk which
he called The spirit of che whole"
DR.. Beale made plea for the mis-
sionary, especially In the foreign field.
"It Is the spirit OF the whole that
sends men and women into far-off
countries to carry the gospel OF Jesus
Christ" said he. MANY decry for
eign missionary work and say let
these foreign peoples have their own
religions, we have enough to do TO
take care of the sinners at, home. Do
they forget that Paul was determined
to carry his Lords message into the
farthermost parts OF the then known
world? II man possesses the spirit
OF the whole. he will never be content
until he has taken the message OF that
spirit to others. He must keep on and
on. ever moving, ever eager to bring
one more being under its influence.
ITO many persons the idea OF
holy man represents an exagger-
atedly, pious person. Many pious
men are not holy. A holy man means
q whole man-whole In every sense
of the word and sound to the core.
People may differ In their interpreta-
tions OF the scriptures, may question
this passage and doubt that circum-
stance, but no one has ever been
found to question the fact that Jesus
Christ was holy man, whole man.
This is an age Of skepticism, and moth
ing is considered too sacred to probe.
but with all the higher criticism the
manner OF man which Jesus was has
never been assailed."
Previous to his talk and following
the singing Of The Holy City" by
Fred Butler, DR.. Beale said he wished
to express the appreciation OF him
self and of the Congregational denom-
nation, which he representa-, for the
generous space given the services this
week in the daily press. and said that
in doing this the newspapers were
aiding to very great extent, the
purposes of the meetings.

time Saturday noon. Next week, the

Docking for Stamping

The office Of state treasurer of New Jersey has put one over
on Governor Woodrow Wilson by docking his salary for his absence
from the state O his western trip. He IA gone a month, and his pay
check was ncked for the latter part of May and for the early days
Of June.
OF curse, the Jersey executive must submit to this sad and painful
ampuuon, unless he induces the president Of the senate and governor
pro TEN to fork yer the 1888. But he a afford it. He is IN OF

$4,000 a yea johnson Of California also being one) and besides, If his
western trip served to keep him in the public eye as a perfectly good
candidate for Democratic President in 1912, it will be a good invest

surgery to the $4,000 salary of the president when he runs around

Our Good
Roads.

A meeting of representa-
tive citizens of different parts
of Wise county will be held
here today for the purpose of
discussing the road question.
There seems to be much oppo-
sition to the steps taken by the
Board of Supervisors in letting
contracts for the grading of the
roads without assurance that
they will be mncadamized, and
it ia likely they will be enjoined
from doing so unless some sat
isfnctory understanding can be
had, and the purpose of the
meeting here today is to ascer-
tain just what has been done
and what is intended to be
done.
Tho situation in Wise county
ia simply this after the ron,tp-
were surveyed and estimates
made, it was found that the
roads agreed to be built could
not he graded and macadamized
for anything like 100000, the
amount OF the bonds voted for
that purpose. So, it seems, that
the Board Of Supervisors have
decided to grade all the roads
before any macadamizinE is
done, and then mncadam such
of the principal roads as can be
done with the remainder of the
money left after the grading of
all the roads is complete.
The Post believes that this is
grave miatnks and should not
be done under any circum-
stances. We believe it would
be much better so make such
roads as the money available
will build first-class, and then,
if necessary, issue additional
bonds TO build other roads.
1t will be n waste OF money
TO grade the roads in Wise
county aud not macadamize
them, and we hope such Il thing
will not be done.
The Big Stone Gap post. [volume] (Big Stone Gap, Wise County, Va.) 1892-1928, 1911-06-07

compare this work and the
price OF the same with the bids
that have been made by differ
ent parties for similar work in
different parts of our county, a
portion of which was to COM
mence at the Lee county line,
running through our town to
Minton's store. The gap road
including an expenditure of
about two thousand dollars in
putting in the under pass has
cost the town approximately
seven thousand five hundred
dollars. The town during these
eight years has increased the
sinking fund from less than
two thousand to more than
eight thousand dollars. This
amount is secured by first
mortgage on the best property
in town at per cent. interest.
Allow me to say, fellow citi-
zens, before you cast your vote
on the 18th of June. to consider
the condition of your town,
taking into consideration the
schools, streets, the financial
condition, the sanitary condi.
ton, the order that you have in
the town, and il you think that
you can make improvements by
changing the officials OF the
town, it is your duty to do so.
However, if you seek a change
in the administration of the
affairs of the town simply
through prejudice, or forsooth
because you have been pinched
by the law, the action in that
particular instance would not
be patriotic.
Respectfully,
w. III. Horton.

LEST YOU FORGET"

Mr.. Editor:
desire in this issue OF your
valuable paper to make n few
statements To the citizens OF the
town. Lest the people forget, |
desire TO call their attention TO
the many improvements made
in the town during the past
eight years. Eight years ago
the greater part of the year two
horses would pull from the
depots to the town one thous-
and to fifteen hundred pounds.
Now one horse will pull TWEEN
ty-four hundred pounds, Eight
years ago the town was in
darkness one-half of the night.
Nov we have electric lights all
night. Eight years ago the
town paid for the support of
schools, | believe, fourteen
hundred dollars. Now we pay
twenty five hundred dollars.
Then the colored school ran
one half the year. Now the
entire school year. These i'm
provements aud additions 10
the school have been made
without the tax rate being in
creased penny. II was one
dollar and twenty-five cents

years on the streets that have

FROM STONEGA.

A successful session of school
work ended on the 25tE Of
May, in the Stonega graded
schools, and in the evening the
pupils gave an entertainment
in the Presbyterian Church
presenting the Operetta of
"Cinderella" to a delighted
audience of parents and friends
of the children, who filled the
church.
The scholars who were cast
in the play, all did well but
space will permit the mention
of only n few who were promi-
nent in the scenes portrayed. .
Ju6nita Collier as Daisy, sang
like an artist, her voice being
clear and enunciation distinct
and the choruses in which the
pupils all united, was inspiring
in degree. Arthur Chapman
rs the Prince, was ut home in
his part and acted the Prince
to perfection, while Kitty Col
lier aud Mary Fleenor as the
proud and jealous sisters, could
not have l. on outdone in the
manner IN which they showed
their spite at the prospective
Princess. Master charlie r
Duffy az Robin Red Breast,
was always on hand ut the
right time, and the numerous
characters in their light and
beautiful costumes, coming
on the scene 80 quickly pot

he could not get their names.
