REV. E. R. NELSON '
HEARD AT REVIVAL
Preache* On True Religion
In Methodist Protes.
tant Service
Rev. E. R. Nelson, Baptist minister,
preached the sermon last night in the
revival at the Methodist Protestant
church. His text was from John 12:42-
13. and his subject was, "Christ or
the Synagogue or Counterfeit Chris
tianity’.”
The sermon this evening will be
by Rev. W. C. Cumming, pastor of
the First Presbyterian church, and the
services will run through Friday even
ing.
E. B. Pickard, of Norfolk, promi
nent layman there, is in charge of the
singing, and is said to be proving
popular with the congregations.
In his sermon last night. Rev. Mr
Nelson emphasized that the people in
the time of Christ, as. mentioned in
his text, loved the praise of men
rather than the service they’ could
tender to the church. The preacher
differentiated between religion and
the true rligion. Those who crucified
Jesus were religious men. Some peo
ple allow ther relationship to men to
determine their relationship to God.
when the opposite should be true.
Most people have a rational convic
tion that Jesus is all that he claimed,
that he will save any who permit it.
but they hav not accepted Christ, be
cause they love the things of the
world more than they love Christ.
To know in his own hbart that
Christ is able to save and yet reject
Christ is a damming sin for the per
son who pei-sisted in it, the preacher
said. "We are living in & time of great
light, and yet great condemnation is
upon men because they love darkness
rather than light." it was said.

and a separate secretary was appoint
ed, In 1917, Mrs. W. A. Hoke, of
Raleigh, was appointed, then Mrs. T.
W. Bickett. and after her Mrs. W. W.
Way. both of Raleigh. Mrs, F. S,
■Spruill, Rocky Mount, and Miss Rena
Clark of Tarboro.
There are 15 members of the diocese ,
at the present time in the mission
•fields. Greetings were extended from
the six charter branches, from Ashe- i
vllle, read by the secretary, from
Charlotte by Miss Carrie Wilkes,
granddaughter of the founder, Mrs.
John Wilkes; Edentuu, by Mrs. B. H.
Perry, of Henderson, daughter of the
venerable Dr. Drane. of Edenton;
from Fayetteville by Mrs. James
Webb, of Fayetteville; from Hillsboro
by Mrs. James Webb, of Hillsboro,
and from Lenior by M rs. B. M. Lackey.
Following these there were given
outstanding events in each adminis
tration of the Auxiliary. Mrs. W. H. S.
Burgwyn, of.Raleigh, said the great
event of her administration was in
terest in the United Thank Offering.
Miss Cheshire gave ns the big event
of her administration the formation
of branches in mission stations of the
diocese. Mrs. Bickett enumerated the
establishment of districts and inter
racial work, but the church has not
led in inter-racial cooperation and
good will and personal relation with
Christ. Mi~s. Way named the bishop's
crusade, the organization of box work
along Red Cross lines, and the ad
vance work. Mrs. Spruill said the
keynote in 1927-29 was personal re
ligion.
Mrs. A. W. Tucker, who volunteered
for mission work in China at the sil
ver jubilee convention of the Auxiliary
in 1907. spoke briefly of some of the
work being done in St. Luke's hos
pital in Shanghai. Miss Bessie Black
nail. of Henderson, missionary in
Alaska, sent greetings and her offer
ing for the jubilee offering.
The preacher at the holy communion
of thanksgiving was the Rt. Rev. Ed
win A. Penlck. Speaking on the first
sermon that was preached on the con
tinent of Europe, he called attention
to one disadvantage of the pioneer,
the necessity of making decisions
without conference with others. Two
advantages of the pioneer he named
dte being vision and certain simplicity
of objective. Something of this rug
gedness seems lost today, he said,
pointing to the multiplication of in
terests with the dissipation of
strength The bishop deplored the les
sing of interest in missionary deuca
tion processes, and said study was the
key. Encouragements today include
personal leadership, the effectiveness
of modern organization, the confi
dence that grows out of achievement.
The celebrant at the communion
service was the Rt. Rev. J. B.
Cheshire, of Raleigh, bishop of the
diocese, and Rev. I. W. Hughes, rec
tor of Holy Innocents church. Throngs
of women from over the State over
flowed the church and partook of the
communion. The offering is to be
given to the Cheshire building at St.
Augustine’s school, Raleigh in thanks
giving for the life and work of Bishop
Cheshire.

All of the services are being largely
attended by a representative group

FOUNTAIN LEADING
GOVERNOR RACE, IN
OPINION OF MANY
(Continued from Page One.)
maintain that if the primary were
to be held today or this week that
Fountain undoubtedly wouK, get more
votes than either Ehringhaus or Max
well. Even some of the most ardent
supporters of Ehringhaus and Max
well admit that this would be prob
able.
Public opinion generally agrees also
that a second primary will be nec
essary. since very few believe that
either fountain.' Ehringhaus or Max
well will be able.to get enough votes
in the second primary to get a clear
majority.
The Ehringhaus followers. how
ever. maintain that Fountain has been
slipping steadily for the past ten days
or two weeks, that he has passed his
peak and that from now on he is go
ing to gain instead of lose.
“All of this talk about Fountains
prodigious following and strength is
largely based on myth." Major L. P.
McLendon, State campaign manager
for Ehringhaus said today. “We. of
course, have not made on every-em
ploye canvass of all the mills and
filling sthations and factories where
Fountain is reported to have shaken
hands with every employe and to have
gotten their votes and tied them up
in a sack. But we are getting reports
every day from many of the counties
in which Fountain is reported to have
such great strength and we are con
vinced that strength is not there.
“I have first hand knowledge of the
situation in three or four industrial
counties where Fountain is supposed j
to have things tied up," McLendon
continued. "In most of these counties
Ehringhaus will get from 75 to 90 per
cent of votes of all the Democrats, in
cluding those of the mill and factory
employes. The Fountain followers are
evidently going on the assumption
that every time he shakes a hand he
makes a vote for himself. But we
are finding that this theory is fal
lacious and not dependable. We are
finding that a majority of the Demo
crats of the State want a man for
governor who excels in something else
than mere handshaking."
Yet the reports of Fountain’s
strength in many of the eastern coun
ties. especially the Josephus Daniels
dominated counties, continue to reach
here. Some reports say that the peo
ple in some sections of the State are
going to vote for Fountain because
they think he ewlll not have much
influence with the General Assembly.
Others are for him because he is un
friendly to Governor O. Max Gard
ner an dthe present administration.
Still others because they think he will
be able to return the control of the
roads and schools back to the county
officials and still manage to get the
State to pay for them. Others who
are for him do not know just why
they are for him. unless it is that they
think ha is in the lead and that they
like to ride on the bandwagon.
The Maxwell followers, however,
agree with the Ehringhaus followers
that Fountain has reached his peak.
But they maintain that It is Maxwell
rather than Ehringhaus who ts bene
fiting from Fountain’s backsliding.
Those in Maxwell’s headquarters here
maintain that MaxwelUhas made more
progress in the last two or three
weeks than either Ehringhaus or

Fountain and that he ia gaining more
rapidly all the time. They point out
that Maxwell has gone to the heart
of the real issues in his speceh and
that he has completely frustrated
Ehringh&us’ efforts to make him ap
pear the so-called "administration
candidate" as well as called Ehring
haus’ hand on a number of other mat
ters, so that Ehringhaus is now re
fraining from shooting at Maxwell
except for a very few carefully guard
ed shots. It is generally agreed that
Maxwells proposal for state rental
of textbooks to school children, which
he will save more money to the aver
age citizen than the removal of the
15 cents tax for the six months school
term, has gained him much support.
Yet the majority agree that Foun
tains figure continues to be the most
threatening of all.
