geont Vernon Brinkleys rife is as
potent as ever, according to the rec

Infantry, Sergeant Brinkley who hails
from Henderson and is a member of
C. Company, led the battalion with
237 out of a possible 250.
But if C. Company furnished the
highest scorer It had to yield to B
Company. Warrenton. for the great
est of all-around excellence on the
range. In fact, this company wh'ch in
recent years has formed the habit of
taking trophies, may have establish
ed an all-time record at Camp Glenn
by qualifying 55 out of 64 men in the
company. Os this number there are 9
rifemen, 17 sharpshooters, and
i 9 marksmen. It requires'a score of
$24 out of a possible 250 to qualify as
8" expert.
{ In the first battalion target prac
tice were two men from B Com
jpeny. Warrenton, who were pushing

Last Service Tonight; Meet,
ing Is Success With Pas
tor Preaching
(Reported to the Dispatch.)
The revival meeting which has
been in progress at New Sandy
Creek Baptist church since Sunday,
will be brought to a close at this
evening's service. Last evening the
church was able to accomodate only
about a th.rd of those present. There
have been around twenty conver
sions so far during this series of ser
vices, and splendid interest has been
manifested throughout the week.
Rev. L. B. Reavis, who is conduct
ing thi3 meeting, rielievered another
splendid sermon last evening on the
subject. “Love That Serves’’. There
will be a service ths afternoon at
3:SO and the final service will oe held
tonight at 8 o’clock. If you enjoy
hearing good sermons, we insist that
you attend the remaining services of
ihis' meeting.
The text for last evening was taken
from John 21:1-16. This passage of
Scripture gives an account of Jesus
appear.ng to His discliples after His
death and resurrection. On this oc
casion He came back to bid them
farewell. He had come back to give
the discliples their last message and
to point out to them the task they
were to perform. He came to Peter,
who had given up practically every
thing in disappointment, and had
gone fishing. He was disappointed
because God hadn’t Set up an early
kingdom: he was expecting to have
a high office vvhen this kingdom was
established. So to get away from this
worry, he got out his net and went |
fishing. The tragic part of it is the I
fact that he carried some of the other
d.sciples with him. He was a back
slider. There are lots of people to
day who are like Pe'.er. When we go
astray we always influence someone
else in the wrong way. They had
fished all night and had caught noth
ing. They had gone back to the sin
ful world, saying that they were tired
of religion. But after a while they
looked back and saw that they had
fished a>l night without having any
luck. Jesus was watching them and
knew the c rcumstances. He told
them to cast their net on the right
nde of the ship and they would find
fish. They obeyed Him and were suc
cessful. When people do as Jesus tells 1
(hem, they make progress in this
world. This passage from the Bible
warns us and teaches us of the sin of
disobedience. It is a reat sin for us
not to put the will of God into prac
tice.
People who wish to win souls to
God must first have their own souls
right. They must live pure Christian
lives before they become soul win
ners. Jesus calls us every day to the
the higher things of life, but some
people say that they don’t hear Him.
Tin je people have heard His call but
they have dimissed it because they
d.dn’t want to hear it. This subject
teaches us about a Supreme love.
Jtsus asked Peter if he loved Him.
and if he loved Him more than any
thing else. Jesus stands and extends
His hands to you. Do you love Jesus
more than you do your job and your
business? Do you love Him more than
you do your immediate family? Why
not give Him first place in your
heart? It i sa tragical thing to hear
p ople talking about the different
ones who are jobless and hungry; but
it is a much sadder picture to see so
many people who know not the name
of Jesus. We should long to hear peo
ple talk about Christ. How much do
we love Jesus. We prove it by the
way we perform our duty to Him.
Jesus had saved Peter and had a right
to demand the love and first place in
Peter's life. Jesus has the same right

Recent Legislature Wrote
96 New Conservation Laws
Dally Dispatch Rnrcnn, 1
In the Sir Waller Hotel.
HV .1 C. uASKIIIiVII.I,
Raleigh, July 14.—A complete check j
cf laws affecting various angles of the 1
St- ?’s conservation program enacted i
by the General Assembly of 1933 j
shows almost 100 new statutes of this j
nature 96 to be exact. Col. J. W. ,
Harrelson, directo rof the Department \
of Conservation and Development, said
today.
More than a third of the number, or
38. pertained to administration of the |
State game laws; and most of these j
were referred to individual counties.
Os the local county game laws, more j
concerned foxes than other animals i
or birds. No Statewide season for
rcynard is set in the State law, and
to a plr>ce in your heart, because He
has saved you. The way we treat this
■question means a lot in our lives. It
decides the power we are going to
have. It was not because Peter was
the best preacher that enabled b.m
to move people to God. There were
other disciples who could preach
much better than Peter He wasn’t
the best preacher by any means, but
ITur Jesus down to the depths
of his heart. He would go anywhere
Jesus wanted Him to go. It greatly
depend o on our hearts as to how much
power Jesus will give us in our lives.
Do you love Jesus Christ enough to
.ersake the other things of life and
follow Him? Do you love Jesus
enough to preach and tell others
about Him? How much have you lov
ed Jesus, and how much of your life
have you given Him? Hew much of
your business have yo i given H.m?
Does He have first place in your life?
How much do you really love Jesus?
Three thousand people were saved
in one day as a result of Peter’s
preaching. It was not because he was
a great orator, and not because he
had a good education that made him
such a successful preacher, but be- j
cause he loved Jesus to the extent i
he was willing to do anything that 'J
Jesus called him to do. Paul stood j
out one day and said. “As for me, 11
will live for Christ.’’ He had a strong
love for God and was willing to do
anything for Him. hough Paul was
bruised, beaten and put in prison he
still loved Jesus and sang praises to
Him even while in jail. A person can’t
bring people to know God, unless the
pov/er comes from somewhere else.
Moody has changed this part of the
world, not because he was such a
great preacher, but because he loved
Jesus so. Martin Luther changed
Germany, not because he was such an
outstanding preacher, but because
deep down in his heart he had a
strong love for Jesus Christ.
Do you love Jesus Christ enough
to go out and tell others about Him?
We should go out and tell someone
else the story of Jesus. Christ first
loved you, and you should be more
than willing to return that love.

in Elmwood cemetery here. Rev. D.
E. Earnhardt, pastor of the First
Methodist church will be in charge
of the sevices. Pallbearers had not
been selected early this afternoon.
Mr. Parker is survived by an only
daughter, Mrs. S. T. Peace, and by
five grandchildren, Misses Closs and
Anne Peace and S. T. Peace, Jr.,
and Mrs. J. C. Cooper and Scott
Parham, all of Henderson, and four
great grandchildren, James, Hill and
Scott Cooper and Fannie Cooper, also
of this city.
Mrs. Burroughs had lived in the
Parker home many years.
Mrs. Parker died May 26, 1927, and
several daughters died a number of
years ago.
Relatives who were at Morehead.
City were expected to reach the city
late this afternoon, accompanying the
body. Miss Closs Peace, who had been
with friends tn Chicago attending the
World’s Fair, and was en route to
Boston for a visit, was intercepted
at Springfield, Mass, and advised of
the death of her grandfather and
this is given as the reason for the
numerous county laws.
Next to game laws in point of num
bers were these pertaining to fishing
in inland waters of North Carol.na.
The legislative mill, according to the
review, ground out 2b statutes on this
subject. As was the case with game
legislation ,the majority of the new
fishing laws were local or confined to
individual or groups of counties.
Commercial fisheries came to atten
tion in a neven dozen new laws, about
evenly divided between general and
local statutes. Among the more im
portant of these was a substantial

engaging in commercial fishing opera
tions. ~ ..

expected to reach here at 6 o’clock

The family today requested that no
flowers be sent for the- funeral.
Mr. Paker was born in Wilson
county December 1 1849. He came to
Henderson in 1884 and had made his
home here since that time. His father
was Theophilus Parker and his
mother was Gabrielle Wilkinson of
Scotch descent and of a family prom
inent in Edgecombe county. Mr.
Parker was 15 when the Civil War
ended and in 1870 he entered Trinity
College leaving a store he was op
erating in charge of a partner. In
1876 he married Miss Lucy A. Closs,
a daughter of Rev. William Closs,
D. D., who wa3 for 50 years engaged
in the Episcopal minis
try, and was' long prominent in the
North Carol.na Conference of that
denomination and the General Con
ference of the church. He died in
1882 in his 74th year and is buried
in Henderson. Mr. Parker engaged
in business in Enfield in 1878 where
he was active until he came to Hen
derson six years later. In 1890 he
closed out a retail business he had
here and established the only (Ex
clusively wholesale establishment in
the StaHe outside Wilmington. H)e
was the organizer in Asheville in 1899
of the North Carolina Wholesale
Grocers’ Association.
Mr. Parker was a director in the
Bank of Henderson until its merger
with the Citizens Bank, in which he
was a director through the years un
til his death. He was also for some
years a director in the First National
Bank of Weldon and the First Na
tion Bank of Rocky Mount. About
1894 he became interested in cotton
manfacturing and organized the Roa
noke Mills Company of Roanoke
Rapids with a capital of $200,000. He

until 1927, when he resigned to be

son-in-law, S. T. Peace, of Hender

was treasurer of the Patterson Store
Company at Rosemary, and in the
formation of the Roanoke Mills
Company had associated with him
Major Emory fend Chariles Cohen.
He was also interested in the Roa

and injure yourself against unexpected troubles.
Henderson was reorganized last fall,
Mr. Parker became president and a
director in the bank, and held both
positions at the time of his death,
giving much of his time and energies
to that institution.
Fishing and farming were his hob
bies, and he loved outdoor recreation.
He preferred walking as a form of
exercise, and, despite his age, usually
walked to the bank from his home.
Mr. Parker was also fond of
reading and study, finding great de
light in the old masters, of other
days. He was well informed on every
development of importance in State
and nation, and was an intense and
uncompromising Democrat. He was
active in politics and attended po
litical meetings, even in his later
years. A biography of Mr. Parker
written by the late Judge Thomas
M. PiLtman, of Henderson, said of
him: “In Mr. Parker and his family
are combined the traditions and
ideals of the Old South, with the pro
gress.veness and larger accomplish
ment of the New South.”
Asked once for suggestions to young
Americans out of his own experi
ence and observation, Mr. Parker
said: “Industry and integrity are the
main essentials for success; self-de
nlial, hard work and good habits.
Close attention to detail has govern
ed in all my undertakings.”
As a mark of respect to its deceas
ed president, the First National Bank
teday placed a huge basket of flow
ers on Mr. Parker’s desk in the
banking house and posted o n itis
front a notice of his death. The fam
