Promotions are still taking place
In the Sunday school department.
Saturday, the superintendent, Mr.
D. Stlth, and a few of the teachers
had a pie sale- This effort proved
to be quite a success and everyone
was happy Words of the pastor In
1937 that will either bring us closer
to God or drive ua farther away
fom Him, seem already to be ful
filling. At the 'ime they wore spok
en, one may or may not have
thought a great deal about them.
But the sermon Sunday morning
again brought them to mind sup
ported by facts ad scriptures that
bear them out in full- Those who
etay close to God will have many
things revealed to them before they
actually happen The 3 o’clock ser
vice was assisted by Rev. Z. E- Mc
Gee, pastor of New Hope Baptist
church and one of his deacons, Bro
William Beasley- Prayer was offer

Beasley, C H- Hall, C. Stewart,
White and Lucas. Also at this time
ell officers and teachers of the Sun
day school and BYPU and other
auxiliaries came forward and were
installed for the year- I am sure
that each wife felt pround of the
husband who was made a deacon
and that each person felt the seri
ousness of the responsibility placed
upon him
The Mission Circle which met at
the home of Mrs- C Stewart last
Thursday reported an enjoyable
time Each member brought his

Henryetta Mak>ns, Reporter
Our thought for the week:
Psalm 41:1 “Blessed is he that
considered: the poor; the Lord
will deliver him in time of trou
ble.”
Sunday school was well at
tended. The lesson was very in
tcresting and appropriate since
the strongest evil of the land
and country is liquor. The lns
son, “is Alcohol an Asset or a
Liability! ’ Could be discussed
by everyone.
Mr. J. L. Willis of St. John
Baptist church spoke for :l:e
Junior church. After the most
eloquex:t speech, the pastor
spoke of extending the Junior
hour, giving the reason “The
work is so enthusiastic and spir
itual that more time is needed.’’
Much spitf.t was shown during
11 o’clock service1. The 7:30
service was also very spiritual.
Thje pi^-itor spoke for both.
Regretfully we announce the
departure of Mr. George Baker,
the first pcsident of the Ep
worth League. lie will be great
ly missed in the adult choir, the
Forward Step club and the lea
gue. A soldier in the U. 8. Army
cannot always choose his fri
ends, so Mr. Baker was moved
to Leavenworth, Kas.
The Young peoples club will
celebrate Negro History Week

clock. Sunday Feb. 7th the club
is sponsoring a program given
by the City Service orchestra, at

/yThe Telephone
Gives Me
More Time to
Enjoy My
Friends**
This remark by one of
our customers expresses
benefit of telephone serv
ice which busy women ap
preciate.
“Ordering groceries and
meat— calling department
stores—all these save the
time and effort of trips in
the car.’’ she explained.
Another woman told us
“It certainly is conven
ient to call the grocer or
druggist when I want
something. I don’t have
to clean up to go out and
I often find I can take ad
vantage of bargains that I
might have to pass up be
cause I couldn’t go to the
store. But the telephone
goes for me.”
