ENCAMPMENT
OPENS ON PELHAM HEIGHTS
BY W. P. THOMPSON

Pelham Heights, August 2.-(SpeciaD
Truly, this elevation-Pelham Heights
las to the last word: Heights was
by the early settlers properly called.
This is a little wing of Baptist Chris
tlan workers striving to learn and
teach as now best to serve and praise
Him who created us all.
Last evening quite downpour of
rain made it necessary for large num-
ber of the ladies to remain at the hotel
and in their tenrs during the evening ser,
vice at the pavilion. Those who did at
tend, however, were entertained and in
structed to such an extent that the falling
rain and lightning did not much disturb
them.
In the hotel halls and large open
office space for guests a goodly number
assembled and listened to some excel
lent church music as rendered by J. M.
Springfield. as leader, assisted by a
pretty bunch of Alabama misses and
matrons.
At the pavilion DR.. R. e. Gaines of
Richmond Va, made an address which
in part follows
"The history of Christianity is full of
the idea of teaching. Jesus was recog-
and as the centuries have gone by
he has become and VIII ever remain the
worlds supreme teacher.
"The church has always made pro.
gress when 1t has recognized and dis
charged its teaching function. In the
last few years great changes have
taken place, not only in the methods
of Sunday school work, but in the very
conception of religious mixture and
its relation to the building of Christian
character. hsie
The modern Sunday school Is not
wholly new thing. We have been
heading this way for long time. The
spirit of revolt in the eighteenth CEN
tury which caused the spread of the
democratic spirit-the demand for,sthe
enthronement, of the human reason
made popular education a necessity: for
the right to think means nothing with
out the ability to think
