METHODIST CHURCH
Next Sunday will mark the
new era in the annuls of Winn.i-
boro Methodism. This is the ou;
come of our new organization of
our Sunday school forces last Su
nday. A mixed class of young
men and young women was ar-
ranged and two classes, one com
posed of the young strong men
and the other composed largely!
Where the g>iden grain oftheir wives. The organization Xeve^rtTranch Sf
rs in the morning, no n with the men will be our big
"Brotherhood Class" and sho-
uld be the biggest thing in own.
There are 75 men actual coun;,
members of this church who are
not in a bible class and there-
fore not doing any systematic
study of the bible. Men this Is
no credit to the Christianity
we profess. Lets do bettei>,
what say you? Let the women
raliy to this movement. I know
you will.
Our Supt. R. J. Turner will
have a Supt. of Statistics on
the job next Sunday. I have but
three more Sundays with you
and I am overly anxious to
leave the machinery of th 2 chu-
rch in good shape, and this can
be done only by your co p?ra-
tion. I want this because it will
make the work so much less dit
ficult for the next preacher,
and flfso for you who compose
the church here. So lets all
move together for a common
interest.

Thanks to the Republican Sen-
ators, they are to have a free
hand in collecting their own ra-
tes of toll. Because of excessive
duties placed on Oubjn and
other foieign-grown sugar they
will l>e able to exact nearly 2
cents a pound additional on all
the sugar they produce. It is
much more than Serator
Smoot had demanded for the
beet-sugar interests last Jan-
uary when he was planning to
use Cnm. Crowder in forcing Cu
ba to destroy a large part of its
supar Top. Because he failed in
his pui*p>ose every pound of su-
gar entering this country from
Cuba must pay an added j/jn-
itive tax anxl the beet-sugar in-
terests will be more than Kro-
portionately benefited. They do
not care how high the price of
sugar goets, for there are more
than 100,000.0(H) persons in the
United States to bleed. They do
not mind how high or fast the
oost of iivjnjf rises so long as
sugar leads the list..
This tariff tax d ct'ated by
the beet-sugar interests, in col
lusion with the Lousiana cane-
sugar interests, is triluite to
be levied on every man, woman
and child in the United Status.
