CHURCH.

Rev. 0. A. Calhoun, pastor.
A. E. Hunter, reporter.
Cleaves Temple is having a
a spiri ul boom. It seems as
though there is a realization on
the part of persons that during
these distressing limes, it is time
they were up and about their
Father’s business. Within the
short period of one month there
has been added to the membership
roll of Cleaves Temple, ten souls,
both young and old. We rejoice,
to see them. Come on the Lord's
side. He, who said, “Whosoever
will, let him come.’’ There is
work,, no. only in Cleaves Temple,
but in all churches, for us to do.
In the past few weeks we have
had with us our presiding Elder.
Rev. L. E. B. Rosser, who preach
ed four pre-Easter sermons. The
fourth Sunday of this momh is
Quarterly Conference.
Mother > Day dawned with
clouds and rain in the early hours,
but in spite of .hat, the spirit of
the church was not dampened.
There was an excellent attend
ance a bo h morning and evening
service s and the day was height
ened with the addition of two
members and the baptism of one
baby. Rev. Calhoun preached an
excellent sermon, and the choir
furnished good music.
The night service was turned
over to the four club groups for
a program honoring “Mother.’’
Be. us say in passing that there
is nothing too great for us to do
to make our beloved mothers
happy. Let us say in passing

But Now I Can See.”

“The Friendly Church.”
Rev. J. P. Bryant, pastor.
Considering the inclement
weather, attendance was very
good at Sunday school and church
services throughout the day. The
pastor preached at both serivces
and he seemed to be in the spirit
on both occasions.
The services on Sunday even
ing is always impressive and in
spiring. The text found in St.
Matthews, sixth chapter, admon
ishing us to seek the kingdom of
God first, and His righteousness,
and then the promise of one’s
needs being supplied, was force
fully and earnestly expounded.
The subject used was “True
Faith.” Those of you who don’t J
attend night services fail to
realize what you miss.

WEEKLY SHORT
SERMON
By Dr. A. G. Bearer
(For the L!terar - Service Bureau)
BETH-DAGON—HOUSE OF DAGON
Text: When the Ph listines took
the ark of God, they brought it into
the house of Dagon, and set it by
Dagon—I Samuel 5:2.
Since Dagon and every other idol
is a creature of men’s hands it seems
foolish to have the creator bow before
the creature- Yet there are thous
"nds who go to the house of Dagan
seeking happiness.
The house of Dagon, the temple in
which he was placed was helpless, as
he was helpless. They were as help
less as the unheeding Baal to which
the foolish prophets prayed when
Elijah challenged them to test gods
with him.
No better example of this folly is
found than the narrative of which
this text forms a part. In the text
we read how they took the ark of the
Lord and set it in the temple of Da
gon and right beside the idol—Dagon.
The narrator tells us that when they
went to the temple, early the next
morning, they found that Dagon had
fallen and was lying on his face before
the ark of the Lord. This shows the
helplessness of Dagon, and it is a
prophecy of the time when all idols
shall be destroyed and God shall be
King over all
Proverbs and Parables

NO MAN LIVETH UNTO HIMSELF
This is a Bible quotation and its
truth is manifestly substantiated. It
means that no man is independent.
This is true because no man can by his
own efforts produce what he needs for
his sustenance and comfort. A logical
interpretation is that every life in
fluences some other life; that every
life is either contributory or detrimen
tal to the well being of others. For
tk.s cause no man has the right to
live in a way to injure others. It
means too, that every man should dis
charge his devolving obligations to
others and should live so as to merit
and receive the sympathy and help of
others.

SUPPOSE
By R A. Adams
(For The Literary Service Bureau)
Suppose in weakness you should do
What would bring grief and shame to
you,
And I should mock you, and deride,
Because yielding, you turned aside,
Would you then judge me fair to be,
No matter what might be my plea.
Suppose some unrelenting foe
Who your own weaknesses might
know
Should hold you up to ridicule,
Subversive of the Golden Rule,
Would you consider such an one
No evil unto you had done?
You answer no, to all of these,
Then answer this too, if you please:
If the transgressor should be I,
Could you such actions justify,
If you’d deal with me in this way,
And thus my weakness should betray?
ith, 1935
ALTA VESTA
A GIRL’S PROBLEMS
By Videtta Ish

Alta Vesta to Her Father—No. 9
Dear Father:—
I am not waiting to hear from you,
but am writing again. Your little girl
is sick and scared- I just can’t write
to you what has happened and what
scared me. I’ll tell you part of it,
but I just can’t write it all. Aunt
Cornelia says you will understand if I
write some of it and don't write all
to you.
1 got sick. Aunt Cornelia gave me
some kind of tea and made me stay in
the bed. I missed school the first
time since I came here. But it was
raining and Aunt Cornelia said I must
not get wet. Then, Daddy, I was so
weak and so sick- And I was dizzy
too. So it didn’t take much to keep
me at home and in the bed. I feel
better but I am weak and nervous,
still.
Now, Daddy, I need some nice jolly
letters from you so I can have cour
age to do all you want me to do.
Wr.te soon, because I’m so anxious to
get a letter from you. With a world
full of love,
Alta Vesta.
