Washington, Jan. 20.-Abandon-
ment of Camp Bragg, N. c., and
transfer of the artillery training to
Camp Benning was opposed by Gen
eral Pershing today. Suggestion that
such an arrangement be concluded
was made by Senator Miller of Wash
ington in the course of a hearing be-
fore the military committee.
General Pershing in giving his
views said he had recommended re-
tention of Camp Bragg, a tract 12O,-
600 acres and not a dollar would be
saved by closing down the camp and
moving to Camp Benning.
There are not even accommoda-
tions at Benning for troops now sta

The committee was told by the
chief of staff that "every second lieu
tenant should be sent to Camp Ben
ming for basic training before being
assigned to service with unit in
any of the various branches of the
military organizations"
The war department believes it
advisable to have large military
camps located near cities so troops

BEING ENFORCED

The Message of Peace Must be
Held Until the April Term of
Federal Court; the Interna-

Hold the Vessel.

Washington, Jan. 2O.-Federal
Prohibition Director Kohloss of
North Carolina conferred here with
Prohibition Commissioner Haynes in
connection with the Message Of
Peace the British ship held at Will
mingtOn.
Disposition of the vessel, Mr.. Koh-
loss said, would await the April term
of Federal Court in North Carolina.
Ordinarily the prohibition authori-
ties would dispose of the ship within
80 days but because of the interna-
tional aspect of the situation it was
decided to wait until the term OF
Federal Court. :
The liquor found aboard amount
ing to 999 cases has been stored in a
warehouse.
Return of the ship to its owners
under bond was offered Mr.. Kohloss
said but as the law required bond
double the amount of the value of
the vessel which would have been
$4,000 the offer was declined.
Prohibition conditions in North
Carolina, Mr. Kohloss said were
much better, adding that over 200
stills were seized in the state during
the past month. The chief difficulties
along the North and South Carolina
coast were rum runners operating in
the Bahamas and from Nassau.
'If 1 had a couple of submarine
chasers," said Mr.. KohlOss Il could

a tribute is paid to man by people who
are not only members of one church, but
who hail from many churches.
While DR. Philputt has been pastor. he
has seen the church grow from a two
night "a week church to an every day In
stitution functioning every hour of the
night and day. He has seen the church
assume a prominent and leading position
in the Sunday school world because Of
the modern methods used in teaching the
Bible to young people.
when I accepted the call to the Cen
trail Christian Church twenty -ofur years
ago, l fell Into good hands," DR. Phil
putt said in his anniversary sermon. II
have heard Of congregations that did not
treat their preachers WELL but you have
treated me well and after wenty-four
years OF service in this church there is
not single thing rankles my heart.
in recapitulating briefly the history OF
these years, I want 1t distinctly under
stood that the credit for whatever good
has been done is not due entirely to
myself This was a good church when
/ came. Other men had labored and /
entered into their labors. The church had
membership of about 500 and a Sunday
school of about 30. Now, with a mem
bership OF more than twice that num-
Der. we have a Sunday school OF 1000 to
1900 and on special days from 1000 to
5000. The greatest growth OF the church
has been in the development OF the young
peoples work.
The beginning of the advance was
made In the aoption of the graded and
departmental features OF the Bible scnool
methods. We have now six or seven
Sunday schools instead OF one, yet all
eo-ordinated under one general superin-
tendent. Our school has attracted atten-
ton far and nesr as a pioneer Of the
modern methods and We frequently have
had visitors from other cities and States
to inspect it's workings.
ONCE SELDOM Used,
NOW CHURCH NEVER CLOSES.
Twenty four years ago our church
was seldom used except on Sundays and
for one mid week meeting. The light
Ing bills were small, indeed the church
was small. Now. it is open every day
and evening and is a beehive OF activity
Then We had few organizations. now
their number Is legion Then / knew
what was going on whenever the church
was open. Now, / come here and am
likely to find some new organization in
flower that l had never heard Of be
fore. l feel like the old woman in the
shoe, who had many children she
didn't know what to do
Twice we have expanded the building
and still some departments are pressed
for room. The church work was easy
In the early days, and being the shep
herd of the flock was rather dignified
and leisurely pastime. Now it IS diff
ficult. al times perplexing and always
laboriOus. Then on budget of $4,000
and $1,000 year we frequently came
out a few hundred dollars short, which
the congregation quickly made up Now
with budget of three and four times
that large we never run short Then
we gave hundreds to missions where
we now give thousands
Little credit for all Of this Is due
