nous territory, he was admirably adapt
ed to carry the Gospel to the most
distant frontier, and to bring the
blessings of religion to those who
would otherwise have been deprived
Of II.
Brief sketches were given Of truly
heroic men, such as Asbury, Coke,
Jesse Lee, McKendree and others, but
the foremost place was given to Fran
els Asbury, virtual father and founder
of Methodism in this country, which
might have had very different story
had it not been for the long and ardu-
Gus life of this sanity leader, who
was born commander, and who knew
human nature as Napoleon knew it.
He was described as "a rigid enemy to
ease," putting up with incredible hard
ships, and travelling annually for the
most part on horseback, 5000 miles, a
record probably without parallel. This
was in a time when there were
wretched roads and no roads, and dan
gers from the Indians was frequent.
Francis Asbury, old and infeebled by
disease, but never stopping by reason
of infirmity, died March 31st, 1916,
making this his centennial year. His
fame will grow as his truly marvel
lous life is studied.
Mr.. Black also made reference to
Bascom, the talented, Peter Cart
wright, the eccentric, James o. An
drew, the two Pierces, William Capers
gentleman, leader and religious
statesman-and several others who,
he said, wrought valiantly for God
and man.
Ending his sketch, which he said he
felt was inadequate because of lack of
time, Mr.. Black made this comment:
The circuit rider no longer threads
his way through the virgin wilds, nor
hears the alaven of the redskins war
hoop His successor travels on ma
cadam roads, or in Pullmans that glide
comfortably over steel rails.
Goodness and self sacrifice have
their opponents even now, in this
feverish twentieth century, and yet my
imagination reverts in fond memory to
the intrepid band who rode the circuits,
with no thought Of their own gain, but
OF the scattered sheep in the wilder
ness, and | think of that promise OF
old that
"They that be wise shall shine as
the brightness of the armament; and
they that have turned many to right
eousness, as the stars forever and
ever"

April term Of the county court, as faI

However, such fund will be appropriat

proportion to their financial ability
show in substantial manner the great

1t will also be the policy Of the
board, as outlined In the resolution, to
use the funds only for the construction
of buildings that will serve the pur

years to come:

Moore, J. A. Derryberry, G. A. Ross
and James Russell, was present this
morning The resolution was offered

Mcknight and unanimously passed. II
follows:
Whereas, at its April term, last,
the county court of Maury county In
creased the tax levy for the elemen-
tary schools by five cents on the 500,
which levy will increase the revenues
of the schools approximately $500
per annum; and
Whereas, as its reason for said in
creased levy of five cents the court
said: The need for money for build
ing purposes is imperative, hence we
have decided that this (school) tax
should be increased by the small sum
of FIVE cents;
Whereas, it is apparent from said
statement and action of the court
thereon that said increased fund was
intended primarily and largely as a
building fund to be used by this board
for the purpose of constructing con-
veniently, centrally located and mod
ern school buildings; therefore,
