Mission Study
Class is Held
Wednesday
Fellowsliip Room of First Presby
terian Church Scene of Most
Interesting Gathering.
The Relay Mission Study class, held
yesterday in the Presbyterian church
Fellowship room, was an inspiration
to the many who attended. Mrs.
Wylie Sigler who presided over the
class, kept her plans well in hand,
allowing no one to go over time, and
providing for song, scripture, and
prayer throughout the session.
The class was called at 11:15 a. m.
at which session Mrs. Karl Keil pre
sented lantern slide pictures of South
America. These were greatly enjoyed
and furnished a splendid background
for the study which followed.
The book used &3 a basis of study
was, "Women Under the Southern
Cross," one of the interdenomination
al study books for the year. The re
views were splendidly given by Mes
dames W. A. Robertson, Louis
Lohnes, Ernest Giles, L. O. Minor,
P. T. Heineman and H. G. McClusky.
Each speaker showed careful and
thorough preparation. Mrs. Russell
Reeder rendered a beautiful solo and
led all the periods of song, Mrs. H. F.
Goos presiding at the piano.
The pastor, Dr. H. G. McClusky,
led the women in a period of worship
at the noontide, following which
Circle No. 5 of the Federation, Mrs.
L. O. Minor, circle chairman, served
a most delicious luncheon, the St.
Patrick colors being uccd in table
decoration. The social hour follow
ing the luncheon was restful and
pleasant for all. The class resumed
the further duties at 1:30 and closed
at 3:15.
Inflated or orcinarv dollars
either kind will still buy most if
expended in your homo commun

of deep green, the sikirt and jacket
