would not purchase things on the
Sabbath, and ii the people would
not purchase things. the business
naen would no, keep open. Why not
make an agreement 10 help each
either Just in this maiseri'
We are asking that the authori-
ties liz the town take the necessary
precaution In regard to the sanitary
conditions Of the town. Our side
streets certainly need cleaning up.
The sewerage in certain sections Of
the city needs attention. The health
Of the people Is endangered BY these
conditions. A little attention in
time would save much sickness
later on in the season.
II Is the tacie understanding that
there Ia more or less tipping going
on in our midst. |. is a shame
that such should be done in this
town. The ministers eater a most
rigid protest against this evil, We
call upon the citizens. who do not
approve Of this order of things, to get
behind our police court and see
that this evil is wiped from our
town. We are asking you to stand
by US in this plea for a better moral
condition, 1t is a menace to our
boys and should not be tolerated.
for an instance.
Another thing has come to our
ears. II IL commonly reported
that not only tipping but gambling
is carried on in some secluded
hooks OF this town, We would like
to ask where our officers stay and
what their business is as othoialss
The citizens should rise up and de.
mand that such practices be stop
ped and they should call upon the
proper officials to see that these
dens Of vice ars mopped up and our
boys and young men be saved from
such unsayory examples.
Ii Is not the purpose Of the min
listers to NEEDLE with TIE affairs OF
other people, but when the morals
OF the town are threatened by the
violation Of the Sabbath in bust.
ness circles, the permission OF the
sale OF intoxieants. and the general
practice OF gambling allowed, all
OF which is provided agains, by
statutory law OF the state, then we
feel that it is our right as ministers
Of the gospel to make our protes;
against such violators NJ the law
and to follow up our protest with II
vigorous effort to have such things
regulated, In this plea we are call.
ing upon every christian in the
town to help US as your pastors to
make this town a better place to
bring up your sons and daughters
in. We believe that the calling OF
the attention OF the people and Off,
GERS OF the town to these evils in

teristic has been moral tone. Not
one issue has ever gone out from un-

appeal for the uplift OF the people oil
the state. He has retired from the
wor kin which he has done so much
good and in which he has been SO sue
cessful.
Mr. Sims recently received the ap-
pointment as United States marshal
for this state. This is distinction
which he well deserves, although as
we have said before. we would have
liked to have seen SOME of the federal
patronage distributed in this section
of the state. But IL any man south
Of Columbia had to get this appoint
ment, would prefer Mir. Sims His
character and honesty and devotion to
principle are unquestioned.
Mr.. Sims was elected presl,

convention last year. and was loyal
