he made a fine impression on the
he found good facilities for living
in Germany, and fine treatment at
class. Capt Rogers reports that
the hands of the German people,
who he declares show no bitterness
toward the Americans despite the
trouncing the Yanks gave the Ger
mans in the recent world war. He
thinks the Germans like Americans
far and away better than any of
the occupation troops. Some of it
may be due to the free spending
of American soldiers, but most of
it is genuine, Captain Rogers
thinks. Il
During his three years overseas,
he spent two years in France and
one in Germany; and during this
stay has visited many countries in
Europe, including Italy, Turkey,
Greece, Yugoslavia, Switzerland,
Belgium and some others, as well
as North Africa and England. He

Rev. Dan Teddar Returns After As
Years; Dinner Served to Some
500 People on Grounds

The observance by the members
of Manteo Baptist Church of the
50th anniversary of this congrega-
TONS organization proved a sue
cessful and enjoyable occasion
Sunday to the members and many
friends, estimated at upwards of
500 people.
Recognition was given the fami-
lies of all 25 charter members of
the church, by the pastor, most of
them being represented by rela-
tives. A splendid telegram was
read from Mrs. Amanda Daniels.
a charter member, now living in
Danville, Va. Other splendid mes
sages came from former members.
Mrs. Hattie Forbes Minton in Vir-
ginia Beach, and Mrs. Thelma
Brothers Yelverton in Fountain.
Rev. C. C. Perry, a former pas
tor was one of the principal
speakers. Rev. Daniel Allen Ted
dar, pastor of the church in 1909,
came for his first visit in As years.
He is now retired and living in
Shelby, after a long career of
preaching and practicing law.
Mr.. Teddar told how he hap
pened to come to Roanoke Island
to take over the pastorate of the
two Baptist Churches. He said
while in Concord, N. c., as young
minister, he met a dentist, the late
DR.. H. c. Herring, who used to
come each winter to Roanoke Is
land. DR.. Herring told him the
Baptists of Roanoke Island needed
a pastor, and suggested he write
them. So Mr.. Teddar wrote, and
got the job. In those days, the
route from Charlotte was by train
to Norfolk or Elizabeth City, and
thence by boat to Manteo. The old
Hattie Greet ran the route then.
Paul hurry Thyme, now living
in Arlington, Va, whose parents
were pillars of the Manteo church,
had come back home Sunday to
visit old scnes and old friends. 1t
was his second visit in SO years.
He remained over a day or two to
see some of the few remaining
neighbors of his boyhood and to
have two gravelots of his relatives
cleaned off. He visited his uncle,
Capt. Lum Midget.

offered a powerful message on the
theme: "What kind of Christian
Are You," which resulted in many
