not be rough wich Mr. Norris.

M. E. Church Notes
Our Sunday morning services were
pretty well attended, considering
sickness and rough roads. The Sun
day school numbered 132 on the rec
ord and a collection close up. to $5.
The various classes do fine when

older folks are sure glad to find the
Sunday school boys and girls alive
to this part of the work of the
church. But the church Services are
greatly in need of a regular choir. A
choir is a mighty big help to the dig
nifying and gracing the work of
church. But really no one is to blame
for this irregularity of a choir, Sick
ness is always a good excuse and. will
pass anywhere. But we are sincereiy
hoping that this condition will be
so improved that when our revival
begins our singers will be righj on
the job to do their best. We still
hold the date for choir practice on
Saturday night at the church. May
we hare a full attendance.
At present writing we have no re
pfcrt of the- bazaar' which was, Aiven
t- heia 'laif Saturday afternoon by
the ladies of the aid. At last some one
reported that .every article was sold.
The aid has recently organized for a
greater business work than ever.
They have three divisions and a
leader for each division. They "want
that the aid as a whole society shall
not be wanting or lacking in anyJ
thing when the year closes. Sister
Edwards is sure a splendid leader in
thi3 energetic society.
The prayer meeting ha3 promise of
greater attendance for Thursday
night service. We sure are glad to
see this circle widen or enlarge.
What is a churc hwithout a prayer
meeting? There are plenty of people
to care for clubs of all kinds but why
should a church turn down a holy
club and as big a book for study as
the Bible. Our motto Is "Every
Church Member at Prayer Meeting,"
and britig your Bibles.
, Now, just a word more about the
revival slated for our church to begin
on April 15th. The lady evangelist
js Miss Clara A. Meeker from Enid,
Okla. This writer and pastor has read
articles in other papers relative to
her revivals and these write up by
pastors sure say many praiseworthy
words of Miss Meeker. Alvo is surely
very fortunate in securing her ser
vices. Are we as a church going to be
dead in earnest in this revival? If
we expect souls saved we must be in
earnest. This is the true work of the
church. Brothers and Sisters, you
have stood loyally by your church
thus far now do the same while these
meetings are in progress. We must do
our part or God can't do His. May
we have a real experience and a
heart warming time. Every Christian,
not Methodists only Is cordially in
vited to come. Bring your friends
with you.'-
Rev. and Mrs. Galloway will be
with us through the meeting.
May the Good Lord abundantly
bless this Alvo revival.
The Parent-Teachers association
held a meeting last Wednesday night
at the school. The house was full.
Suffice to say that the program com
mittee had the best program this
time of them ail. The audience sure
enjoyed it, all. .
