SYNOD’S STAND ON LIQUOR IS STATED Rev. W. C. Cumming Re turn* From Presbyterian Meet In Greenville Rev. W. C. Cumming, pastor of the First Presbyterian church, was back home today from the annual conven tion of tt» Presbyterian Synod of North Carolina, held this weak In Greenville, and which closed yester day afternoon. Rev. Mr. Cummin* set forth the stand of the Synod on tbs liquor question, and brought with him a copy of the full resolution adopted. That resolution Is as follows: 5 Recognizing the confusion and un certainly now existing with reference to the use .distribution and control of alcoholic liquors, and having been overtured to give some expression to its views on this subject for the guidknee qf its members, the Synod of Virginia in session In Richmond, adopts ths follpwing resolutions: 1. The Synod declares that it has no right .as, it has no to bind the consistence of its.members in mat ters of this sort, and issues this state ment byway of suggestion and guid ance only, • ■ * 2. The Synod recognizes and is, in harmony with the historic position of the Presbyterian Church Irv the Unit ed States -.with reference to political issues, and as a non-partisan, kvllglovis body does not take sldes'in controver sial, political questions. 3. As the ultimate standard in this, as in ail other matters of conduct and morals, we believe that Christians should endeavor to determine what Jesus would do under similar circum stances, and what He would now have His followers do. In reaching their conclusion it is necessary to realize that conditions have greatly changed since Jesus lived, and we should en deavor to apply His teachings nhd principles to the circumstanees and conditions of our own day. 4. We appeal to our members t 0 be law-abiding citizens. giving strict obedience to the prohibition law, as well as all other laws of the 1 stale. 5. We recognize the grave dangers inherent in the use and distribution of alcoholic liquors for beverage pur poses and would remind our people of the debasing and disastrous effects so often following the use of such li quors. We recall to their minds the many warnings in the Holy Scriptures as to the danger and terrible effects of intemperance. We urge them as Christians to consider the whole mat ter of “example," that in deciding what their conduct and views are to be. they consider not only their own physical and spiritual welfare, but also that of their weaker brethren, for whom Christ also died. We Invite them as a matter of Christian prin ciple to adopt for themselves, and to recommend to others the practice of total abstinence from alcoholic drinks. 6. We call attention to the peculiar conditions which have developed In our time, such as the widespread use of the automobile, the greater liberty permitted young people, the general lack of restraint ,our complex ma chine civilization, and point with grave alarm to the possible return of the saloon and the removal of re strictions In the distribution and use of intoxicating drinks. 7. We recognize the sincere differ ence of opinion that exists among ChriXtiatis as to the best method of ZED VANCE SCHOOL HAS GOOD OPENING Auditorium I* Nearly Filled With Students, Parent* and Visitors The Zeb Vance high school had a splendid opening on Thursday, Sept. 22.
