percent over the total for the cor
responding month last year, according
to figures announced today by Post

a gain this year of $483.64.
For the first eight months of .1932
however, the figure is S2O 992.75, a?
compared with $23,124.34 for the firs'
eight months of 1931. showing a de
cline of slightly more than $2,000 this
year.
In order to reach the figure for thi
first class rating in the next fisca
year, the office must do a business o
slightly more than $19,000 In the re
m&lning four months of the year
which is almost $4,000 a month. Witt
the extra one-cent postage on firs
claaa mailings, it is believed that con
■iderable inecrases can be ahown so

total required remains to be demon
strated. In the final four months o
1931. the office did about $15,000.
CITY ROADCHURCH

Preaching; Services
Each Evening
Revival services which were launch
ed at City Road Methodist church a
Ncrth Henderson Sunday were ccr
tinued last night, and will be run oi
through this week, it is announced b,
the pastor. Rev. M. W. Warren. Th
sermons each evening this week are
to be by Rev. D. E. Earnhardt, pasto
of the First Methodist church. Thi
hour is 7 30 o'clock, and the publh
Is invited. A congregation that prac
tically filled the church heard th<
sermon last night.
'The speaker told “how so many o
the modern churches are trying t«
function without the Holy Ghost," am
of the need for the religious enthus
iasm h« said so characteristic of thi
"old-fashioned Methodist.”
"The church that is trying to gel
along without the Holy Ghost Is doom
ed to failure." said the preacher. "/
preacher cannot preach without thi
Holy Ghost, neither is God’s word re
vealed to any man without him.”
The preacher declared that “entin
sanctification, one of the five car
dinal doctrines of the Methodis
Churh. is ignored by so many of thi
churches today- and this accounts foi
the absence of vital religious expen
ence and the religious enthusiasm
which made the people of a genera
ticn ago shout with joy. Perfect lovt
and entire sanctification has been thi
means of closing liquor joints am
dance hails, for they both go togeth

POU SAYS CREDITS
MADE FOR FARMER
Congressman Lauds Agri
cultural Corporation As
Promising Relief
Congressman Edward W. Pou, of
this district, is of the opinion that
the new agricultural credit banks will
prove a great help in providing relief
to the farmers. In a statement sent to
the Daily Dispatch for release, Mr.
Pou said:
"The creation of the Agricultural
Credit Corporations should supply a
ireat need to the farmers of the na-
Mon. The time merchant has well
oigh disappeared. These new corpora
lons. recommended by President
Hoover and authorized by act of con
fess. are Intended to take the place of
the corporations, banks and time meb
~hants who. In the old days, were en
?aged In the business of financing the
farmer. The only question is whether
our fahmera, as a rule, can qualify to
receive help from these new govern
mental agencies. While no policy has
been announced my belief is that the
policy to be put in force by these new
governmental agencies will be as li
beral as the rules of ordinary busi
ness safety will permit. I believe the
benefit which will accrue to our people
engaged in agriculture from the es
abllshment of these corporations may
vell-nigh be universal In its scope."

WILSON NEGRO IS
BARBECUE EXPERT
On a recent visit to Wilson, it was
my good fortune to be invited to a
picnic barbecue dinner and more es
pecially to make the acquaintance of
on© Huley Williams, whom the Wilson
folks style the “Barbecue King” or
‘‘the chef.” He is Indeed an Interest
ing character. With my usual inquis
itiveness. I would interview him the
while he cooked the 60 pound pig on
the wire grate in the pit in the back
yard of a member of the “B. B. Q.”
club. Huley is a genuine old time
“uncle” of pre-war (Civil War, I mean)
days, but entirely "up to now" on his
sp**cialty. He is a home-owner nas a
107 acre farm but barbecuing is his
avocation. He is 87 years old and has
been roasting pigs, chickens, and hogs
for many years. Since he was 15
years old at his farm he takes private
orders for individuals and for clubs as
well. Down there barbecue Is the
main dish at out door feasts. Huicy
told me he had cooked 2000 or more
pigs and chickens and he glories in
his work and has become an art.si in
his line. Seeing him .«» action and
getting in acton wtti the twenty five
or more friends on our street in eat
ing, the finished product at noon call
ed to mind Charles Lamb's Roast Pig
of literary fame. His seasonings of
vinegar, pepper and the smoke from
the hickory and oak coals made a
loathsome picnic luncheon of the ten
der pig. This is a little tribute of
Huley’s skill, from “Among my Sou
venirs.”
