Pastor OF Glendale Circuit,
Resigned
The people of Glendale were
much surprised on being informed
that their pastor had resigned, to
take effect November l. We under
stand he has accepted position in
one of the banks at Laurel.
Mr.. Faulkner as minister had a
bright future, and bid fair if he had
continued in his ministerial work TO
become one of the best in the Will
mington Conference. We think the
young man has made mistake
one which in later years he will re-
gret.

proves that we have the scholars
md it remains for those who have
charge of the school to provide
Ways and means which will induce
his goodly number to be present
ach Sunday.
The lessons for this quarter are
cry interesting and should COM
nand the attention of all those who
re seeking the truth, as given us
" the word of God.
Working For Christ In A Great
'ity" was the title of the lesson
asst Sunday.
Paul with his helpers is moving
rom place to place. He had been
n Athens and his sermon delivered
n Mars Hill is considered one of
is best efforts. In his speech he
poke of the people being religious,
s he had noticed an altar erected
0 an unknown god. He closed his
ddress with statement of the doc
rine of the resurrection. The people
f Athens scoffed at any such doc
rine and only few had a desire to
ear the apostle again on the sub
ect.
So Paul left Athens where he had
OF been kindly received and came
} COrinth as he thought a better
eld for his work. Corinth in the
me of Paul's visit was a city of
ealth and many vices. So Paul
anne to this great city bringing his
lessage first to the Jews, who did ii
OF treat him with that respect ii
hich he deserved, and becoming
Sgusted with the Jews he turned II
ON them saying as he did so your H
lood be upon your own heads" and II
lrned to the gentiles and had more III
lccess. II
Paul several failures to convince II
Ost of the people of the several II
ties he visited caused on his part II
partial change of the doctrines II
hich he preached. He came to Cor II
tn with, that old time doctrine III
hich is equally good today: That III
!, Paul, would not know anything III
preach anything "save Jesus III
lriSt and Him Crucified" II
The more the student studies II
'out the life of Paul, the great II
'ostle, the more he looms up as
e greatest of all preachers, except
S Master Jesus Christ, and his
achings have come ringing down u
e ages and have been the incen- II
re of many men who are trying to ii
each the same doctrine which II
lul did.
The churches of the present day III
EN- to have wandered away from II
e teaching of Paul. In their mod ii
n ideas they seem to have lost III
INT of the things which are essen
! in conquering the world for Je- III
5 Christ.
When preachers can say with the
18th as Paul has already said, that
~ will preach nothing but Jesus
rist and Him Crucified. The doc II
ne of the New Testament as
ought to the world by the advent
Christ is the gospel of which Paul
d, Il am not ashamed of the gos-
of Christ" for it is the power of
q unto salvation to every one that
ieveth to the Jews first, also the
