! IN HIS ADDRESS
DR.. Brown Claims Regen.
Grafton, Not Reforma-
tion, Needed

Carried through tho entire ser.
mon OF DR.. R. T. Brown at the
First n. E. church last night was
the thought that regeneration. not
reformation, must follow CONVEX
sion, His sermon was taken from
BE not overcome Of EVIL, but
overcome evil with good"
To illustrate. DR.. Brown told a
story OF q fellow he onco knew,
Ned Moore, who was at one time a
prosperous lawyer. However, drink
got the uper hand OF him. and he
sunk down and down. until he was
found hanging around the mig
ger" settlements. ragged, dirty and
penniless. There came . time
when Moore went to the judge OF
the court and asked to be sent to
the aims house. There no told
the superintendent OF tbs aims
house that no matter how hard no
shrieked and begged for drink and
drugs, not TO let him have them.
The next time DR., Brown saw
Moore. he said, the old drunkard
was clean, prosperous and In good
company. Two years later how
ever, he learned that Moore had
again fallen into ev1 ways and was
as bad as ever. Moore had not
been regenerated," said DR..
Brown; "He was only reformed. ="
The above was but one OF sew
oral instances mentioned by DR..
Brown, who said that reformation
is not enough. VIII power is not
enough. You need the blood Of
Jesus Christ" he declared.
There are only two forces in
the spiritual world, said DR..
Brown, the forces OF good and OF
evil. The FIRST, he said, builds up.
and the latter pulls down. Tho
FIRST part OF the text, he declared.
Is Gods red signal Light warning
OF danger ahead. Paralleling the
experience O. railroad engineer
when he runs past a signal, he
said, the individual who ignores
Gods signal Is running into dis
aster, which means In the spiritual
sense-death.
He told a story OF a half-witted
boy WHO was lost, and 500 people
solrched for him until he was
found, IN contrast. he said that
there seemed to be very little ex-
element or interest over the
hundreds of men and women lost
from God, nor was there any Of
the heart anguish spoken Of in DR..
Kings sermon Tuesday night.
AS a closing thought DR.. Brown
said that It was an easy matter to
backslide during a revival and
that z Christian bnGKsli1es when
he falls to do his duty. An i'm
pressive aft6s-meeHng was hold, in
which many went 10 TIE altar.

Not Alarmed by Association
Miners officials do not seem to
be alarmed over the announcement
that coal operators along the Mon
ongahela Railway will work nom
union. Miners feel that at tho
proper time this section will be
in district II as usual or the mines
will be handicapped In production,
The fact that there are two assoc
Citations in Northern West VIr-
glnia does not seem to change the
situation, although the miners
officials decline to state any Qol-
icy as yet in regard to this field.
1t is a matter OF history with the
miners, however. that the miners
officials usually like to deal with
centralized organizations.
Ever since district II was or

gantown section sought a separ-
ate sub.district from number 4,
this feeling being particularly
strong In the star city section,
