Reliance Circuit

The people of Reliance Circuit
met at the Parsonage last Friday
January Goth which was the date of
the Fourth Quarterly Conference,
and brought an old time Quarterly
Conference dinner.
Folks came from all over the Cir
cult bringing with them loads Of
good things to eat such as the ladies
OF this neighbOrhoOd can cook. Tho
automobiles began to arrive about
noon, and our hustling ladies had
dinner ready for the Official Board
by one o'clock. SO they could be
ready for the business of the Quar-
terly Conference at two O'Clock.
There were about eighty-two mem
bers present and everyone enjoying
a very delightful dinner and social
time together.
The Pastor and wife were very
much delighted to see such a turn
out at the close of the third year of
their stay with us.
Every one was glad to have Mr.
and Mrs. Joseph NJ. Williams, of
Seaford, with us.
l think if the preachers of the
Wilmington Conference could have
seen the tables loaded down with so
much to eat, we would have trouble
with them for they would all want
the place.
The Pastor reported the Circuit in
fine shape. The Official Board elect
ed L. X. HaCkett a very worthy mem
Der of the Quarterly Conference to
represent the Charge at the annual
conference to be held at Cambridge
IN March. Mr.. Hackett was also
elected district Steward and f. Lee
Morris, alternate.
We were all glad to have the
Sheriff of our county, Ira Y. Wheat
ley with US, although we were some
what uneasy about him. considering
the length of time he spent at the
able, but we sincerely hope by this
time he is able to resume his duties

SCOTCH VILLAGE Is
BUILT FOR PICTURE
Thrums Constructed As Described BY
James vi. Barrie.

Thrums Constructed As Described BY
James vi. Barrie.
\ Scotch village with its matched
roofs and whitewashed walls, its
little church seen in the village
square was constructed in the Vita
graph lot at Hollywood, California
for scenes of 1.-The Little Minister"
which will be shown at the Grand
Opera House tonight and Saturday.
Director David Smith was born in
England, and is thoroughly familiar
with the Scotch atmosphere. He
carefully copied little hamlet n
which he spent considerable time
during his boyhood and so accurate
ly did he reproduce this village a
Scotchman in the cast said:
II would think l were back in my
native heath in bonny Scotland when
l enter this set.
Those who have seen the picture
and are familiar with the Scotch
scenery declare that Director David
Smith could not have done better
had he made the picture in Scotland.
Alice Calhoun is exceptionally
ly charming as Lady Babbie, the
gypsy. A better actress or one
more suited to the role could not
have been found. She is the living
embodiment of the character dc
scribed by James NJ. Barrie. James
Morris who plays opposite the star
makes a perfect Gavin Dishart, the
little minister.-AdT.

period May l to June 30, and it has
been showing up with great regular
itv ever since. "Service" is the slo-
gan of this live wire agency and Mr..
Skinner explains bow they go about
dealing it out as follows:
agents problems are very much
the same in towns similar to Cam
bridge and we know of no set rule
that will apply. Confidence of the
public, backed up by concentrated eff
forts on the Agents part should pro-
duce good results anywhere, especl-
ally when that Agent represents the
f & D.
eve have always made SERVICE
the watchword and use all efforts
within our power to impress upon eli
ents that we are a close working unit
Of the Home Office, capable at all
times of handling their business to
the entire satisfaction of all parties
concerned. The Agent who depends
upon politics or funny-story telling
to pull him through often finds that
The earnest hard working competitor
gets ahead of him. Self interest runs
deep and the contractor or banker
soon realizes that service of the right
kind is what benefits HIM in the long
run"

the greatest amount, of paid business
