MT. OLIVE BAPTIST
CHURCH NOTES.

Quite a large and appreciative
congregation was present Sunday
morning, and a very instructive ser
mon was delivered by the pastor,
Rev. c. II. Clark, whose discourse was
based on patriotism and Loyalty"
The Doctor used as his text John
4:12, art thou greater than our
father jacob"
Said he, This woman of Samaria
belonged to a despised sect of the
Jews; she was loyal in that she re.
membered Jacob as their father and
to him she endeavored to contribute
first honors. But" says he, "all the
ideas Of religion point to the one
religion, that is, no matter how diff
ferent may be the method of worship,
the definite and sole aim is to con-
tribute to that one Holy Being, God.
Men sometimes do deeds so great that
the act is deathless; it lives in the
hearts Of the millions of his sur
vivors, Jacob was considered a
great man and the life of him was
yet cherished in the heart of this
Samaritan woman. Deeds live when
time has destroyed everything else
that may have been their contempt
raries, The highest pinnacle to be
reached by man must be started in
a mans home. This is true when
Jesus is there. Him upon whom we
may at all times call. lie can tell
US all that we have done and will
redeem us when we hear, repent ana
confess. Every man and woman,
great or small, rich or poor, may
drink of this living well which flows
from the throne Of grace"
Visitors are always welcome.

Field Secretary From New

in Religious Efforts.

Camp Hancock Army Y. NJ. c. A. w:.5

DR.. David -4atshaw, of New York City,
fiela representative of the Bureau of Re-
ligiouS Work of the War Work Council of
the Army Y M. G. A.
DIR. Latshaw made an investigation into
the religious work of the camp and eX-
pressed himself most favorably concern
ing the activities being carried on. He is
making d tour of all the camps in the
South and win return to New York soon
to prepare for a trip to the camps on the
Pacific coast.
In his conferences at the administra-
ton building, DR.. LathshaW revealed him
self man of keen insight and deep earn
estness. He emphasized the Importance
of personal work among the soldiers and
stimulated all the secretaries to renewed
the work of the Y. M. c.. A. Every sec
rotary should make the religious work
the objective of all his efforts no matter
what department he may be serving, said
he He also stressed the thought that the
association is subordinate to the chap
lains in religious effort and pointed out
that the Y M. G.. A. is an arm of the
church and all secretaries are expected to
be loyal to all the ordinances and sacra-
mentS of the church
One of the prime purposes of the re-
ligious workers is to hold the church
members in the camp faithful to their
communions. Dr. Latshaws visit was an
inspiration to the secretaries and his
final talk at the Friday conference in
which he urged the Army Y" force not
to lose their SAVIOUR comparing them TO
