UNCLE Doc MILLER
Gone to the Reward that Awaits the
Faithful.

One of the best and best known
citizens of Lawrence county, MIR.
Albert Miller, better known as "Un-
Gle Dock" Miller, died at bis home
on the river, about five miles above
Louisa Thursday. May 8. He had
been in poor health for many
months, suffering from some of the
diseases incidental to a man of his
age. at times suffering greatly. but
death came as a relief from all
earthly ills and the old patriarch
passed peacefully from earth TO the
reward of a well-spent life. Mr. MIL
or was buried on the home place on
the following Saturday. in the pre-
sence- OF large number of sorrow
ing relatives and friends. The fun.
eral service was conducted by the
Rev. William Copley. The deceased
was SO years old and was born nor
far from the place OF his death, and
had been resident OF the county
all his life. He is survived by -four
sons and three daughters, all grown.
His wife died about ten years ago.
II is said In the foregoing that
Uncle Dock Miller was one of the
best men In the county This is
literally true. His was the life Of
an honest. upright, industrious, sob (.
or citizen. Besides the possession Of
these admirable moral virtues he
lrIghtfully claimed, in his modesl'
unassuming way. the possession OF
a religious faith which endured TO
the end. He was simple. unpre-
tontious man. but such was his daily
walk and life among and with his
fellow-men that even an enemy, II
he had one on earth, could not
truthfully speak IN OF him. And
surely, he spoke only good OF those
he knew. II he could not praise his
neighbor neither did he condemn
him. The influence OF such man
as 'Dock" Miller is great and last
ing, will continue long after Ills
mortal remains have crumbleu In
to dust, The community will suffer
from the loss OF such q citizen. but
the memory Of him and OF his good
deeds viii abide.

nentIy Established.


Pursuant to a notice published in
the NEWS of last week all the con-
gregations in this city met in a
union service held in the M. l..
Church South last Sunday evening.
The, occasion was the presentation
OF the claims and work nf- the
Young Mems Christian Association,
more particularly with reference to
the training of boys along mental!
physical and religious lines. 1t was
a fine. big meeting. composed Of
ministers and laymen from all the
evangelical denominations. and a
large number of intelligent. deeply
interested boys.

singing of an appropriate song. fol-
lowed with prayer by the Rev. DR..
Hanford. Mr.. C. NJ. Nicholas, phys
ical director OF the Ashland Y. NJ.
10. A.. read scripture lesson.
Mr.. E. D. woosley. State Y.
M. C. A. Secretary, then spoke for
cibly and at some length of the,
work which the association is 20 z
for boys. y;e told of the great good
which had been done by the boys
camp in Central Kentucky. of the
interest which was State wide in
extent. and of the fine results which
must follow the training which
every boy in the camps receives. The
Bible lessons. the talks on purity of
life and conduct, the physical cul-
ture, the lessons in swimming, in re-
suscitating tho apparently drowned,
the ball games all this goes for the
bodily and moral health OF the boy,
helping him to become in his matur-
er years manly men. In his
early formation. Mr.. woosley said,
a boy is not a thing of beauty or
a Joy forever. but this condition is
largely due to lack Of proper
care. and 1t is the aim OF the camps
to make the boy more attractive,
more useful, more helpful.
When Mr.. Woosley had concluded
Mr.. Nicholas spoke of the gymanas-
tic work of the camp. the outdoor
sports and OF other matters inter-
esting to boys. Pastor Summers. OF

Better Disciplsship."

A large and intelligent audience
enjoyed a spiritual and intellectual
treat a. the NJ. e. Church South ON
last Friday evening. The Rev. DIR.
Banks, pastor of the First Methodist
Church, Parkersburg. w. Va. ar
rived in Louisa Friday en- route 20
Paintsyille to preach the baccalau-
reafe sermon TO the students Of the
Sandy Valley Seminary. and was
persuaded to preach here that even
ing. After the usual Introductory
service DR.. Banks read the last SIX
verses of the 9th of Luke as founA
dation for a discourse on Better
Dlscipieship, taking the characters
spoken OF in these verses as types
of men who fail or fall short OF be-
ing the kind of disciples wanted by
the Master, There was, for instance,
the man who. without inquiry or
stopping to find out what he was
entering upon. declared he would
follow Jesus whithersoever he
went. why. young man, you have
no idea what you want to do; the
foxes and the birds have refuge.
but |, the Lord and Maker Of the
Universe. have not even place on
which to rest my tired head" Here
was case Of enthusiasm without
perseverance, not the kind Of dis
cipleship the Master wanted. Like
some preachers DR.. Banks had
known, 1t would have been toos pg
between Sundays for him.
Another would follow Jesus. but
he had to bury his father. LET the
dead bury the dead" said Jesus DR..
Banks thought it did not show good
discipleship when Christian people
put over a million dollars in tomb
stones and ten thousand dollars in
public or private schools-
The doctor thought that the man
who wanted to say farewell to his
kindred had better cause for de-
laying the beginning OF his disciple
ship than the others had. and in
referring to the excuse he spoke
eloquently and feelingly, but Jesrs
mad no use for him who would turn
back after putting his hand TO the
plow. He who does this thing has
his type in the man who left the
ministry and went back to the law:
the law is not the gamer and the
church is none the loser
DR.. Banks doesn't like TO be
spoken OF as an entertaining"
preacher. He says that some peo-
pie attend some shows TO be ZEN
tertained." and when they do 30 I
reveals their intellectual caliber.
But the NEWS must, in spite OF the
good doctors dislike OF the word.
say he is entertaining-an instruct
I've. forceful and interesting as
we'll No man or woman who heard
that gem OF his last Friday night
could fail to be deeply Impressed
and helped by what DR.. Banks said
In such an original, sincere and
earnest way.
