of the pastor, the building COM
mittee gand, in fact, of the entire
membership of the church, is too
we'll known to dwell upon here.
Their srcrifce in enlarging the
house is surpassed o1ly by those
who built it.
Rev. Mr.. Cate was succeeded in
1905 by Rev. o. G. Peyton, whose
second ministry lasting till Febru-
ary, 1908, was fruitful in increased
numbers in enlarged work and in
deepened spirituality.
In 1908, Rev. w. B Rutledge
became pastor. Under his faithful
and efficient ministry, the chu ch
made rapid progress. The mem
bership was largely increased, and
the influence of the church was
widely extended, so much SO that
even the enlarged house was too
small to accommodate the congre-
cations that waited on his ministry.
During his pastorate, the matter OF
building a new house was discussed
and some money was raised for the
purpose. But the movement to
build did not take definate form
until the coming Of the present
pastor, Rev. James Allen Smith
in March, 1914.

along with that of those who built
the first house in 1872 and of those
who enlarged and beautifed the old
house in 1901.
The Maryville Baptist Church has
struggled and triumphed. In its
struggles, it has been led by noble
pastors, men of God, who now re.
joice in its triumphs.

PARIS, October 10.-In contrast to
the rapidity with which the Germans
have conducted their campaign against
Antwerp. the tide of battle is flowing
slowly in certain parts of France. The
engagements in the Woevre district,
according to the statements of wound
ed soldiers who have been brought
back from this territory, continue to
take the form of a slow and steady
siege.
The German trenches in the Woevre
have been constructed in two lines one
behind the other The outermost is fur
nished with quick firing guns. with
outposts constantly on guard. In the
meantime the larger detachments shell

in comparative security. The first line

The daily routine of the German
forces in these trenches is carefully
observed. The fire of their heavy artil-

of maps and aerial "Reminiscences and
is directed mostly to the ravines and
woods where the enemy is supposed to

very successful. Drainage is a most
necessary precaution. as many of the
troops are suffering from inflammatory
