where vehicles were soon in

Of these acres are

more than barns to cure this

corn fields from which barrels
per acre are to be
vested, and cotton that looks
like it will easily yield a bale per
acre. To the writer the homes

Impressive Ordination Sermon De-
livered by Rev. R. W. Hope,
f Chapel Hill.
It was a beautiful and
impressive scene that marked
the ordination to the priesthood
of Rev. B. F. Huske in St. Paul's
Episcopal church on Sunday. In
order that the service be not too j
long, morning prayer was said
at by Rev. J. Gordon, j
of Williamston, giving a short
intermission before the
which began at At this
hour a congregation assembled
that was so large as to complete-
overflow the church, many
having to be turned away for
lack of room.
After an opening hymn Rev.
R. W. of Chapel
who preached the ordination
announced his text
and part of His subject
was of the minister
consistent with his
He said that while men in other
callings were more or less chosen
for their business qualifications
rather than personal character,
when it comes to the minister of
Christ he must be a man of char-
and that character be con-
with his calling. He said
the minister must be a man of
sacrifice, a man of faith, a man of
prayer, a man of courage, a man
of vision. Each of these
were emphasized with force
by the speaker and illustrated
with beautiful figures. It was a
sermon that a deep
upon all who heard was
delivered with marked earnest-
and eloquence.
Then with Rev. Robert
Strange, bishop of the diocese of
E stern Carolina, the impressive j
ordination service was said. The
priest was presented by Rev.
Is W. Hughes, of Fayetteville.
The other clergy present and
taking part in the service were
Revs. F. N. Skinner, of t,
and W- J. Gordon, of Williams-
ton. At the conclusion of
Bishop Strange requested the
congregation to join in silent
prayer during a space of two
minutes for Divine blessing j
guidance upon the young priest
to be ordained. This was
was done devoutly and it was a
moment of deep solemnity and
earnest supplication to the
Heavenly throne. The bishop an i
all the visiting clergy then
together that they might
join in laying hands on the head
of the kneeling priest. Bishop
Strange handed a Bible and stole
to the priest with the commission
of authority to enter upon the
full duties and obligation of the
priesthood.
In the large congregation were
no more interested and happy
than Mr. and Mrs.
A. S. Huske, of Fayetteville, par-
of the young priest, who
with three others of their child-
Messrs. M. S. and Caldwell
and Miss Wilhelmina Huske, had
come to attend the ordination.
