There are times within the
lives of til of at when loss
of energy becomes i fact Our
lives ait often likened unto
things that nave no life. For
example, an
needs a spec
from time to time and ao do
all human beings When one's
life begins to show signs of
thadiw, sometimes a Httie
rest cm put the individual
back into action
There is evidence among
us that tends to show that
man gets weary spiritually
along the way and needs to
be refreshed by a
supernatural force called
God More than nineteen
hundred years ago God
activated a stream through
Ills Son whereby the rich,
poor and other conditions of
men the world over could be
met through believing the
inspired word. There are
those, however, who know
where help can be found but
refuse to aeek for spiritual
help to put them back into
action.

REV. CHARLES STONE
Further, there am other
times within the lives of
christians when our faith
needs to be increased lest we
fall Furthermore, the Master
has many supply stations set
up along life's way whereby
we can pause in Christ for
refreshments to get our
spiritual strengths renewed.
The Holy Spirit of God gives
to all who aeek an everlasting
supply.
He who hath ears to hear
let him hear.

Course at
Laymen of the African
Methodiat Episcopal Zion
Church (second largest black
Methodist body) at the
Opening of the 3rd Annual
Laymen's Council Convention,
Friday night July 20, at Jones
Memorial A M. E. Zion
Church, 2400 Barhamville
Road, outlined an extensive
program that should bring
about a greater involvement in
phases of Christian services,
Including community activities.
Even tho the program was
announced Friday night,
Arthur E. Brooks, Washington,
D. C fully explored Saturday
morning when he delivered the
keynote address. He eluded
Christians for their
holier than thou attitude, in
that they were more interested
in going to church on Sunday,
paying their dues and building
imposing edifices than christian
effectiveness. He pointed out
that then are two distinct
spheres in which the church, if
it is to be trudy effective, must
concentrate Its efforts-the
assembled church and the
scattered church.
He described the assembled
church as the one in which the
worshippers assembled, from
time to time, to receive the
spiritual values that would
make them more devoted to
the tenets of Christian living
and to a fuller life of service.
He pictured the scattered
church as the one that moved
into the communities and
interested itself, not only in
the spiritual life of people, but
aid them in every phase of
their lives, political, seodal,
health, sorrow and grief and
above all.
Mr. Brooks, who is the
president of the body,
admonished the convention
that all of these fields of
endeavor were areas of
evangelism He warned that
laymen, if the church is to
become really viable in its bid
to save the world from itself, it
could not leave the job to the
minister alone. He was mindful
of the fact that church
members "should let their
lights so shine that men would
see their good works."
The convention will end
Monday, when a public
pronouncement will be made
which wul serve as a mandate

Tho American Wild West hasn't died, it's merely been
moved 5.000 miles to a suburb of West Berlin where it is
lovingly nurtured by a group of Berlin men and women who
are fond of Vcsn.rn lore and period costumes.
The credit 1 : ihi.s revival on friendly Berlin soil be
longs to members r.: the Old Texas Cowboy Club, founded
in 1950 and now building itself brand-new quarters on land
owned by the company where most of the Club's members
arc employed. Completion of their well-researched version
of a typical cowboy town may take a while, though: the
members finance and build everything themselves, yet can
work at their hobby only on weekends.
No mere false-fronted stage reproduction, Berlin's own
frontier town will have a bank, stagecoach station, post
office, general store, jail, dance hall and. or course, its
Lone Star Saloon; and most of the authentic-looking out
fits (featuring chaps and spurs and ten-gallon hats, string
ties and trusty six-shooters, bonnets and gingham dress
0 have long been ready. Meanwhile, members study the
folklore of the American West, rope twirling, square
dancing, target shooting. s , . J.J i-Ji
The Club's members say it is a lot of fun to re-llve the

re-runs; and, they ask tongue-in-cheek, where else does
