Il We hear much of Law and Order
these days, and it goes without saying
that all laws should be either enforced or
repealed. But getting down to local
matters:
What has become of the law prohibiting
cars running without DINNERS and with
cut outs open through Rockingham!
These are important laws and should be
enforced.
! And what about the speed limit? This
law should be enforced impartially at al
times, not just once in while. 1t seems
to have fallen into disrepute of late

while.
And what about the law with referenc,
| to awnings hanging over the sidewalks
Lots of them in Rockingham hang so low
people have to- bow their heads to go un
S~der them. This is violation of towr
ordinance. Why is not this law either re
n pealed or enforced?
And what about crowds of people

Saturday to such an extent that men, no
to mention ladies, can hardly get from on

law. People should be made to eithe

town that we know of.

A NEW YEARS TRICK.

The congregation of the First
Cumberland Presbyterian
church of this city played a New
Years trick on their pastor
Rev. T. c. Newman on New
Years eve.
That being the regular pray.
er meeting night the pastor had
urged everyone to come to
prayer meeting on the last
night Of the year 1919 and close
out the old year with good
attendance at prayer meeting.
SO that evening the pastor
and his family went to church
expecting to find large con-
gregation to greet them on this
night, and on reaching the
church they found no fire had
been made or lights turned on
and after waiting until after
the hour for prayer meeting to
begin and no one came they
started home much disappoint-
ed.
On nearing home they dis
covered a bright light shining
out through the transom. The
window shades all being down
and the door blinded, of course
the first thought was burglars.
But on going in they were sur
prlsed to find a congregation of
about % of the members seated
IN front of a roaring fire in the
CRATE.
The leading elder, C. V. Oak
ley explained that they had
just decided to change the
prayer meeting from the
church to the pastors home
for his one evening
er meeting from the church to
the pastors home for the even
and had forgotten to inform
the pastor and that now he
would occupy the first five min
utes in telling them how he
liked it. The pastor then told
them he liked it all except the
walk to the church, and he did
not mind that very much and
that they were welcome to
come again next week.
The leader then read a scrip
ture lesson and made a talk on
getting a vision for next year
and after several good talks and
prayers. and some time spent
in social conversation, the
guests took their departure and
left the pastor and his family
to xplore and find out the dam
age that had been done. On
going to the dining room they
found that everything had been
removed from the table. and it
had been piled up with sweet
potatoes, -four, coffee, sausage
and canned goods as well as
several pieces of glassware and
an envelope with some filthy
lucre in it. But the pastor and
his wife, being of kind heart,
refuse to take any offense,
obeying that Divine injunction,
THAT in whatever lot they find
themselves to be content" Come
again brethren.
