NO SLACKERS WANTED.

During the campaign next week,
for United War Work, there must be
no slackers. The people at home will
look askance at them, the boys at
the front will despisc them and their
names will be anathama. There is no
place in this country for the man or
woman who refuses to stand behind
the boys over there. They are Ger
man sympathizers to say the least,
and should be in Germany Our boys
will find out the name of every one
who fails to help them now when
they return and such person will
have no recognition. They will be
treated with contempt and scorn as
they should be. Therefore, let me
warn the people of their danger in
the future and urge them stand be-
hind our boys like men. This may be
the last call for help for the boys,
and if we fail, woe be unto him who
causes the failure.

which was held last week:
Whereas, in the Providence of God.
Rev. R. E. Turnipseed, our presiding
elder. after an illness of one week died
at the district parsonage in Greenville
October 18th. Therefore, be it re-
solved:
First-That while we, the members

our Allwise Heavenly Father, we wish
to express our deep regret at the going
away of one who had such promise of
long and useful life as good minister
of Jesus Christ.
Second-That we put on on record
our recognition of his great efficiency
in executing the duties of his Office of
his forceful sermons and his influence
which abides.
Third That we express our sympa-
thy to his bereaved wife and commend
her in our payers to the Comforter,
who alone can comfort us in all of our
distresses.
Fourth-That a copy of these resolu-
tons be forwarded to her, and also that
copy be forwarded to the Southern
Christian Advocate and to the Pickens

the same be published, and further
that these resolutions be spread upon

Three Deaths in One Family

Editor Pickens Sentinel:
During the last two weeks the pail of
death has clustered heavily around the
home of our beloved brother and sister,
Mr.. and Mrs. j. M. Hudson, of the
Pickens Mill village. Nora, the last of
the three children, died Wednesday of
last week and was inferred the follow
ing day at Secona after brief service
conducted by Rev. B. G. Field.
This makes the fifth child Brother
Hudson has lost, one girl having died
about year ago and small child.
Lennie was called home on Monday,
October ID; then on next Monday came
the news Of the death of Furman.
How sad! And yet sadder still when
on Wednesday came the news that Nora
was gone.
The village and friends in general
unite in prayer and sympathy for this
sad home. May God in His infinite love
bring peace to this family.

await may not differ essentially from
predictions that It will include arr.
