impossible. We should be optimistic
enough to plan great things for God
and hopeful enough to expect great
things of God
| We have wrought well in the past,
but God writes underneath our work
Wider" Larger"
The great thought which oyerwhems
our souls to-day is: We have gone out
of the old house into the new. Shall
we some day 60 out of the old house
here below into the new house up yon-
der-that house not made with hands
eternal in the heavens?'
There were six confessions on Sun
day. All plans were perfected for the
dedication service to take place next
Sunday, when Dr. w. H. Shelter, of
Memphis. will deliver the dedicatory
sermon. The officers and members are
inviting all the churches in the city to
join them in these services. A unique
service is planned for the afternoon at
three O'Clock "a union communion
service, where all who call themselves
disciples of Jesus may break the loaf
and take the cup in memory of their
Master.
Rev. j. E. Stuart, the present pastor
of the First Christian Church in Union
City, was born in Bland County, Vir-
ginia, July 26, 1868, He was educated
in the public schools of Pulaski County
and at Mulligan College near Johnson
City, Tennessee, and was married to
Miss Margaret Garrett, of Abingdon,
Virginia, in 1892. His first work was
at lockwood, Tenn, in 1892 His next
work was at Jackson, Tenn, where he
built the First Christian Church. His
next work was in Washington City
where he was for five years pastor of
the Fifteenth Street Christian Church,
and at the same time corresponding
secretary of the Christian Missionary
Society of Maryland, Delaware, and the
District of Columbia. Then he came
to Union City.
The Union City church has been
blessed with the ministrations of good
men and true, strong character and in
tellect, but none probably who were
held in greater esteem and Christian
than Rev. Stuart. Broad and
sound in mental stature, with inspira-
tions and motives springing from the
light and truth of divine wisdom, in
tensely and earnestly serving his Lord
and people, the minister is no less a
kindred spirit in his walk among men, |
and his influence for the spiritual ad |
and moral uplft of the COM
munity has been far reaching.
Full of energy and purpose, with a
firm faith and indomitabIe persever-
lnce, he has achieved in the construc-
ion of the new church in Union City
l monument of enduring majesty and
beauty to its surroundings and of ever
asting glory to God.

ADJOURNED SESSION
OF CITY COUNCIL
DIFFERENCES OF OPINION AS TO
ASSESSMENTS
City Attorney Kinder Holdsthat As
ments Should be Made on Prop
erty Owners Before Work Begins.
Mayor Thinks Differently.

The city council in adjourned
session yesterday afternoon. after
hearing about two hours of legal
argument on techinacl questions con-
cerning the new paving district No.
2, instructed the mayor and city sec
retary to fill out certificates of in
debtedness against the property
owners in paving district No. 1. The
form Of the certificate by a motion
and vote of the council was entered
upon the minutes.
Mayor Cole and City Attorney
Kinder, as far as the organization
and improvement of district is
concerned, agreed in all things ex-
cept in the time at which the assess
ments against the property owners
in the improved district should be
made
Mr.. Kinder. in his understanding
of the state statute regarding paving
laws. was of the opinion that the as
sessments should be made before
construction work began.
On the other hand, Mayor Cole
thought that the assessments could
be made at any time at the conyen-
fence of the council
Judge W. f. Hawkins, who was
present at the meeting as attorney
for the paving company. was of the
opinion that. the assessments could
be made at any time He and City
Attorney Kinder argued at length
upon the question, the city attorney
. holding all the way through that tbs
assessments should be made before
the improvement work is begun.

when Mayor Cole suggested that |
