HARRELL ASSAES
D0yBLESIANDARD
Declares What Is Wrong
for Women Wrong
for Men

Il do not believe in a double
standard Of morals. said Rev, r,
IL Harrell at the first Baptist
church last night, what Is
wrong for a woman Is wrong for
q man. Shame on the condition
that exists In this land Of ours
that Will permit a man to sink SO
low in vice and sin and then 60
into our homes and associate with
pure, innocent girls. IlteII you,
at the day OF Judgment there will
be no double Standard OF morals.
We will be known there as we
really are. God $685." he said.
All through the sermon Rev.
Harrell emphasized the awfullness
OF the day Of Judgment to those
who are unsaved. He referred to
men who boast OF their bravery,
their heroism, who defy the law.
and then when the deputy sheriff
comes UP to them and sticks q PTS
tol under their noses they wilt.
How much greater, he said will
be the humility be when we
stand before the Judgment bar"
He discussed the war and the
havoc 1t brought, together with
the influence. Mentioning an In
nident down in Texas, when a
mother saw her three boys leave
for the front, he said: but what
OF eternity compared TO this?
What Il those boys were unsaved;
and the mother knew It? Oh.
what anguish she must endure Il
she knew the parting would be
forever"
The choir was In charge OF
Fred L. jenkins and the choir loft
was we'll filled. Rev. W. J. Eddy
said last night that IL a few more
men would volunteer he would
welcome them along with the
delegation Of feminine singers.
Tie song service was very inter-
esting last night. From night
TO night special numbers will be
given.
The board Of control, headed
by NJ, g. Tough. met after the
services to plan for the meetings
through the next two weeks.
Prayer service will be held from
II to ~ tomorrow morning, and
in the afternoon tho women's mis-
sIonary society will meet to hear
Rev. Harrell. The men are inyit-
ed to attend this meeting.

trade at Hampton Roads was
shown in The dumpings from ali
piers during the month Of February
when l,099,378 tons OF coal were
accounted for, 1874 tons more

nlficant, In view OF the fact that
February had only 2S days, with
four Sundays and one other holiday
when the piers did not operate.
The dumplngs for January
amounted TO only s37,664 tons, and
the appreciable increase in acti-
rities during the month which clos
ed Tuesday Is taken by coal men
TO indicate that the trade revival
they have been looking forward to
for months has actually begun, At
the end OF the month activities
continued brisk, with prospects OF
Ia continuance OF the strength Of
the business during March.
The Norfolk and Western piers
at Lambers Point led IN dumplngs
during February with q total OF 500
