Mt. Zion Baptist Church, Rev. ].
Sterling Moore, Pastor.-That the
pastors Lenten sermons are being
enjoyed and-are proving helpful is
evinced by the large congregations
attendant upon the services. Many
were inspired by the sermon Sunday
morning, the subject being, Turn
ing Aside to See; Elk. 3:3. "Men
always get visions of God and The
richest spiritual blessings only as
they give themselves pause in the
busy hurry of life and turn aside to
see," Rev. Moore declared. God
intimates in some way tfat he would
speak with US. When he does, that
moment is our moment of oppt rtun-
ity; it is our duty to turn aside TO
see. 1t is our duty to place ourselves
in the full altitude of attention; like
Samuel, hearing the voice, we should
say, Speak, Lord, for thy servant
heareth'."
Sunday night, many attended the
annual Thanksgiving Service Of the
Olympic Lodge No. X. of p, and
Court of Calanthe Nc. 448. A splen-
did program of addresses and music
was followed by a forceful sermon
by Rev. Moore who used as his sub
ject, Friendship"
This week, redecorating of the
church has begun. Services will be
held in the Assembly room while the

A thTe-year period usually is al
lowed for the carrying out Of this far
reaching governmental task and the
legislation now pending in Congress to
authorize what will be- the fifteenth
dccennial census provides that the
period shall begin July /, 1929.
The census Of 800 showed the popu-
Iation Of continental United states to
be l05,7l0.620 persons. and it is being
estimated that the count at the end OF
1880 will be somewhere in the neigh
borhood of l22000.000.
Senator Jones, Republican, Of Wash

committee. has Just stated that the
bill to pave the way for the census OF
1880 will be taken up promptly by MS
committee when Congress reconvenes
In December The measure passed the
House Just before adjournment in May,
SO that its enactment should be COM
pleted without difficulty at the coming

New Feature In Bill
AS 1t passed the House the census
bill incorporates q new feature, namely.
census of retail and wholesale dis
tribution Of commodities. Thu Govern
ment for many years has gathered COM
plete statistics relating To production
Of economic goods but has not here
tofore undertaken to compile data re-
/ carding the distribution Of Commodl
! tics after they have been produced. a

an experiment in this field by taking

of the 1880 census.
/ The census also will include the
( assembling of data on the major sub
( iects of irrigation. drainage manutac-

as a whole. the Census Bureau at the
same time must keep up its routine
annual collection of statistics on births

The preliminary work Of mapping
out the territory for the fifteenth census
/ Is being carried on now, according to
William NJ Stsuart. director Of the
/ census. who pointed out that one Of the
: first steps is TO get a description Of all
/ the political subdivisions of the United

/ do this the bureau must correspond
with thousands of local officials and
! also obtain maps for use in forming
/ the enumeration districts. The task OF
/ preparation is a difficult one in the
Z United States. because Of the large
number Of subdivisions, such as wards
