Dear Sadlo:
Well, Sadie, It has sbo been one
long time since I writ you au epistle.
But goodness! Dontcha Itnow 1 wus
bein' trained one time and I been
trained some more now. I been read
ing a book callcd Eddie Ket and it
don’t have one thing about no Eddie
in It only 'bout how to hold your fork
and aach stuff. Any wa.vs I’m writing
now.
Sadie, they is been some queer
doin’s around here. One day some
girla comc to my "sweet” and asked
me to come to Jim and play basket
ball. I didn't know who wus "Jim” or
vvbiU wus “basket ball", but I went"!
Law. Sadie, here I bad got all dressed
up for this liere ‘'Jin\"andlt was just a
l)uilding named after James somebody
and called “Jim" for short. Don’t that
iieat all? But. not ALL Sadie! You
oagbta see this basket ball business!
Two girls run out on the floor and
slick thoir hands up in the air. Two
other girls go stand bade of them.
A lady comes out there with a round
football and throws .it up in the air
between these two girls while she
blows a whistie. They try to see how
far they cun bat the ball ’while the
other two run where they think it’s
gonna fall. One of them flres it at four
l>eoplo standing at one end. They slide
around and light for it. Then the one
that has fit the hardest throws it
through a hooi? with skeeter nettin'
around it what is hooked to a shelf in
the air. Tiien they blows the whistle
while everybody hollers and it all be
gins again! Some people is so doumb!
Not for me, Sadie! I’m a dignified
woman!
I'm going to .some kinda court now
to play tennis or something. IE I meet
tho queen I’ll tell her you said "hey."
Here's the girls I'm going with now.
So Koodi)ye for a while.
Always agectlouatly,
Myra.

The members -of Miss Mary Lynch
Johnson’s Sunday school class of the
First Baptist church, which Is com
posed of Juniors and Seniors from
Meredith and Peace colleges, are
manifesting much interest in Sun
shine work.
On the fourth Sunday afternoon of
last month a number of the members
visited the Old Ladies Home bringing
to these duar old ladies a program
which cheered them and made them
feel several years younger. Th6 girls
went away looking forward to the
time when they might again visit that
home.
At present the class is planning to
do definite work during the Thanks
giving holidays. A largo basket of
fruits, nuts, and candies will be taken
to a needy family and many useful
articles will be distributed among
those in need.. The class aims to eni-
piiasize Sunshine work not only dur
ing holidays, but during the entire
year.

B. y. P. U. work, a contest between the
unions was begun. At the end of every
six weeks, a silver loving cup was pre
sented to the union making the highest

record system and including, in addi
tion. points for reading the Biblieal Re
corder.
The Pearl Johnson B. Y. P. U.. by
earnest effort, won and kept the loving
cup during the entire year, until the
last six weeks. Meanwhile, the otiier
unions were giving her a close race
and at the end of these' last six weeks,

cnp to Alda Grayson.
This year the contest, by reason of
its success last year, was continued.
