SENSITIVE PATRIOTS.
ITraer Star-Clipner.1

When Senator Kenyon started the
bill prohibiting the shipment OF intox-
icating liquors into prohibition terri
tory. there was trouble among the
patriots. 1t was not only a restriction
on trade. it was palpable violation Of
the constitution. Some senators and
representatives declared themselves as
opposed to the traffic were loud in de-
Tense of the constitution which was
thus proposed to be ruthlessly tramped
upon But it has always been thus.
With the first introduction Of laws re-
straining the traffic in intoxica nts
these constitution lovers came to the
front with pugnaciously pathetic zeal.
Time and again the issue was in some
form carried to the supreme court. We
do not recall a case in which the
court did not sustain the law, but even
vet the sacredness Of the constitution
is invoked whenever the subject of
1.-The flowing bowl" is touched upon in
legislation. But the Kenyon bill had
friends enough who believed the con-
stitution safe to pass the Dill. The OPP
poser seemed to forget that the su-
preme court has, years ago, paved the
way for Kenyon in the decision that
the traffic is wholly under the control
Of the several states, that In the ex-
ercise OF their police power they can
permit, regulate or abolish 1t, and tina,
congress has no power to interfere
with the administration of the state
laws on the subject. The dealers had
assumed that under the interstate
commerce law the right to sell anG
ship to any point had been acquired
But Kenyon's bill simply by so mucf
is a recognition of the principle lait
down in the courts decision rendered
| by Justice McLaine in the early ffties
to which we referred above, decision
which has never been reversed and /!

finals in the state golf tournament show
that the deciding hole Of the match
was won on a "stynie.' When one
player lays his ball directly between
the hole and the ball Of his opponent

it means a lost hole for the player
whose ball is "stym.ed."

GREAT SUCCESS
Was The Dedication of The
Christian Church.

Sunday, the 10th of November, 1918
will be remembered as red-letter day
in the history of the Christian church
in this city. After more than a year.
heroic efrorts, the beautiful new edifice
costing $4,000 was formally set apar
to the service of God on that day. The
weather was unfavorable, but, as the
pastor said, the congregation that had
triumphed over so many obstacles had
also triumphed over the elements. The
congregation filed the spacious audito
rum, and at the appointed hour the
choir was in its place ready to begin the
services of the day.
Rev. F. M. Rains, secretary of the
Foreign Christian Missionary Society,
was the dedicatory preacher. Mr.. Rains
has filed a number of important offices
in his church and all of them with dis
tinction. He has an unbounded enthu-
siasm in his work, a wonderful voice
and a fine sence of proprieties. He
knows the world of business and is a
careful student of its financial markets.
He believes that the earth is the Lord S
and the fulness thereof, and that in
cludes the silver and gold. His earnest
sermon created the atmosphere for what
was to follow-the raising of slO,0 to
wipe out all Indebtedness. The great
audience rem mained from 1890 until al
most / O'Clock, held by the speakers in
terest in the occasion, which was his in
no merely professional sense.
A bounteous dinner was served by the
ladies Of the church. TO which 400 sat
down. And there were more than 12
basketsful left over The congregation
provided we'll for the many friends and
visitors.
The afternoon service was Of con-
gratulatory nature, in which the Revs.
VIM. Martin and d. Clay Lilly and the
local pastors participated. 1t was fit
ting testimonial 10 the fraternal spirit
in the churches, no less than to the en-
terprise of the congregation. The COM
munion was served, Elder Thomas Z.
Baldwin presiding.
At night DIR. Rains preached an able
sermon on the Progress of the King
dom," which was supplemented by an
other helpful sermon Monday evening.
The remaining Indebtedness was rails
ed by DIR. Rains at the close of the Sun
day evening discourse and the formal,
beautiful service of dedication, which
appeared in our columns last eek, was
read.
The music, under the direction of the
organist, Mrs. G. W. Pickles. was the
best that has been heard in this city in
many years. Much labor was given free
ly by the organist and members Of the
choir, representing the churches of the
city. to bring the music to Its high de-
gree of excellence. The soloists did
their work admirably, while the chorus
work was almost without flaw.
On Tuesday evening an informal lunch
con was served by few ladies in the
dining room, as complimentary to those
who made such an excellent musical SER
vice possible.
The addresses of the week by DR..
Crossfield and Prof. Fortune, of Lexing-
ton, and Rev. H. G. Garrison, of Dan
vile, were instructive and helpful.
