FROM CULLOWAEE.

Dear Editor:-I am asking for
space in your paper in which to say
onlv a few words.
The Summer Session of the Cul
lowhee Normal opened last week
with a matriculation of about fifty.
The number is steadily growing by
the coming in of others from the
different parts of the state. We are
very much inspired by the bright,
sunny faces of those destiny MAX
ing students and school teachers.
who have come to Cullowhee to take
training for better and more eff
cient service. May we be a bles: :
ins to them while they are in our
midst.
May say that the Kingdom
work of Jesus at Cuilowhee is NOV
ing on but slowly, however irresist-
ably. Our new church building is
still at a standstill, as we have been
unable to obtain our loan from the
Board, but we are expecting it at
an early date.
We were very greatly blessed by
the Lord on the Fourth Sunday
afternoon of last month by having
with us in service set apart for
the ordination of deacons, Rev. j. O..
Fullbright, pastor of the Sylvia and
Beta Baptist churches and our most
worthy and beloved Enlistment Sec
retary, Rev. W. N. Cook, and quite
a number of deacons from sister
churches. The Church was called
in conference by the pastor, the
deacons elect were presented and
received the charge by Brother Cook
and were ordained, after which
Brother Fullbright preached a very
brilliant and heart searching SER
mon on the subject of Christian
Service" which was enjoyed by all
present. We were glad to have
these brethren with us and invite
them to come again.
Permit me to say further that the
good women of Cullowhee have not
ceased from their deeds of kindness
and works of love. On the evening
following the arrival of Mrs. Hoglen
and little daus hter, Covia May at
our new home there came
quite a number of good women,
Methodists and Baptists coming
together, bringing with them por-
ton of the luxuries from their pam
tries, with many good things, for
which we were very thankful. They
were followed in few days by
another band of women Of t h e
same making, bringing with
them many good things such as are
needed by a family. Blessings on
these good women and may we
prove worthy of their love.
1t is with much pleasure, also,
that we think of the kind and hearty
reception given us by the good peo-
pie of Webster Baptist church. The
Lord is very greatly blessing the
work of the Kingdom that we are
doing there. We have just complet-
ed an every member canvas, in
which we took a religious census of
the people and at the same time we
installed an envelope system also,
by which we hope to be able to
raise the larger part of our finances
Tor this year. We are planning also
or about four or six Sunday School
looms in addition to the church
building. Then in about four or six
weeks we are expecting the Lord tc
give us a revival of the old time
religion and also the gathering Of
many of our precious boys and girls
into the Kingdom of our blessed
Lord.
The good people on both fields
are worthy of the best service thai
we may possibly render. May the
