sermon, both Sunday morning and
Sunday night. Our Bishop F. C.
Scott of Okla. City, Okla., was
with us Sunday night and he made
the closing remarks. In other
words He preached a sermon and
a soul stirring one. His subject
was “Stay with the Church”. Did
our hearts burn within? Our
Bishop was with us Wed. and
Thursday nights.
The Pastors subject for Sunday
morning will be “Whoso keepeth
His mouth and his tongue, keep
eth his soul from troubles.” Sun
day night subject will be: “Father
forgive them for they know not
what they do”. So come out and
hear him deliver these sermons.
We were glad to have with us
Mrs. Pearl Young and Mrs. Mayo

There will be a “Farewell Test
imony Banquet honoring the Pas
tor and his wife on Tuesday, Dec
ember 16, 1941 at 8:00 p. m. at the
Church.
light of huperb personalities falls
on lovely, irresistable Dorothy
Ward. The charming maiden of
sixteen summers possesses a col
oratura soprano voice of except
ional rare quality. In the field of
young artists this is perhaps the
most enchanting soprano voice
I’ve heard in recent years. Her
career is that of a concert artist,
and there is no question in my
mind as to the fact that success
will be her’s real soon. At pres
ent she is the lead soprano on the
Paul Briggs Ensemble. So to you
Dorothy, may you continue to en
joy all the glories that music has
to offer, for fame and fortune is
just in the offering.
J. N. tells me that V. H. is tak
ing music lessons from one of our
very fine teachers, also that V. H.
doesn’t seem to realize her teach
er is endeavoring to teach her to
play the piano not to sing grand
opera because V. H. can’t sing.
She doesn’t know it but I heard
her playing a piece called “Drow
sey Morning”. The way she play
ed it, .. it sounded like a split be
tween “Humersque” by Dvorak
and Fschakpskwis "Piano concerts
in B flat Minor. Come on V. H.
get hep to your piano.... get off
the pedal and get on the down
beat.

What Makes This Laxative
So Popular?
Practically any drug dealer will
tell you this laxative has been a
standby in thousands of American
homes for years and years!
BLACK-DRAUGHT’s long record
of popularity has been won by the
gentle, satisfying way it usually
relieves constipation’s bad breath,
coated tongue and loginess when
simple directions are followed.
The principal reason for this is:
BLACK-DRAUGHT contains a
tonic-laxative that helps to tone
lazy intestinal muscles. It is easy
to take, and you get 25 to 40 doses
for only 25c. So look for the fa
miliar yellow box and get the gen
uine BLACK-DRAUGHT!

PINEY WOODS SCHOOL'S ALL
GIRL BAND—"RAYS OF
RHYTHM”
“The • Swinging Rays of Rhy
thm” have just returned to their
classes in Piney Woods School
from three week-end dates in Al
exandria, Louisiana where they
packed them in at The Murpny
Auditorium. Alexandria is near
Camp Claiboume and the Soldiers
who heard the girls were there,
filled the big Auditorium each of
the three nights.
The unusual rhythm section
consisting of the Dynamic Elean
or Moore on the piano, Lillian Car
ter Sensational Bass Fiddle play
er, Pewee Perkins, the world’s
fastest girl drummer, Chelo Vegas
the Mexicala Rose with her Span
ish and Electric guitars, were as
usual a great sensation.
Hundred of the soldiers threw
money in the “Kitty” just to hear
the rhythm section beat out their
hot licks over and over again.
The way they danced and en
joyed the rhythm section, made it
appear that the rhythm section
alone could make it without the
rest of the band which with its
trumpets, trombones and saxoph
ones is the hottest thing in Dixie.
The latest addition to the ‘Rays’
is Helen Jones, a sensational girl
