Columbia State: An event which has
filled the hearts of the people Of this

married on February 19, to Edgar
Jones. Mrs. Jones has suffered for a
long time past with gastritis, and. al
though the attention Of the best ply

Rev. J. 1. Oates in Charlotte.
Charlotte Observer Monday: Rev
]. L. Oates Of Yorkville, 8. c., began
Yesterday a series Of sermons at the
First A. r. P. church which are to
continue throughout the week. There
were four accessions at the morning
service. Mr.. Oates as prelude to the
sermon yesterday morning stated thai
he had prepared a series Of discourses
that he thought everyone should
know the character of the being he
worshipped. He took as subject, The
Character of God" and as his text
Job 26, the first clause OF the four
teenth verse, 10, these are part o1
his ways" Mr.. Oates said in part: God
has left two records: His imperishable
word and the records which are inn
printed in the works Of His hands. The
preacher drew three lessons from the
character Of God. God Is God OF
power. II the question were asked
Has man power this question could be
answered by pointing one to the things
man has done, and so the proof that
God Is a God Of power Is the things ne
has done. The second lesson is that
God is a God Of wisdom. There Is such
thing as power gone mad. Power to
be benificent must be under the con-
troll Of wisdom. The things man has
done show that man has mind and
with this mind he has controlled his
power. The third lesson Is that God
is a God of love. God may be a great
God Of power and wisdom; but we
must learn that the great controlling
characteristic Of God Is love.
