Pilot community did itself
proud and at the game time dem
onstrated what a group of people
united and directed by a single
purpose can achieve together Sat
urday of the past week when tl^e
second annual Homecomiug was
held on the grounds of the Pilot
Elementary School.
Approximately 500 persons
from several places in and out
side of Franklin County gathered
together to hear and see a beau
tiful pageant depicting the sacri
fical Christian spirit of service,
to hear an unusually able address
by the Honorable W. L. Lumpkin,
and then to eat one of the best
barbecue dinners that only Frank
lin County people know how to
prepare and serve.
The Homecoming celefiration
held for the first time last year,
was conceived by the Rev. Ford
A. Burns, pastor of the Pilot Bap
tist church. Each year the pro
ceeds of the event are to go to
so'me worthy community cause,
the income for both last year and
this year going to pay for equip
ment, principally seats, for the
Pilot church. 126' was cleared
last year, and approximately
$300 was taken in last Saturday,
thus clearing the $650 obligation
of the church for seats.
The financial motive is not the
only one for the Homecoming cel
ebration each year. In fact, the
value of getting together and of
working together by a whole
community united to achieve a
common objective are two mo
tives or benefits which Rev.
Burns rank even higher than the
financial reason for holding the
celebrations.
All the work, of whT?5 there
was much, was done by members
of the Pilot church and the gen
eral chairman was John M. Stal
lings. There were various sub
committees, and these were: Ta
ble ? W. M. Bunn. E. R. Stallings
und H. M. Bell; Barbecm* ? J. D.
Stailings and J. B. Alford; Bruns
wick Stew ? Lonnie Jones. Walter
Green and Ell Medlin; Entertain
ment ? Mrs. J. B. Jones; Tickets
? Raleigh Alford, G. W. Massey,
Benjamin Williams. Sonny Wil
liams, Carl Bell, Preston Massey
and Ronald Phillips; and Serv
ing?Members of the young men's
class and the Phllathea class of
the Sunday School.
Inspiring Pageant
The pageant, "The- Challenge
of the Cross," was presented and
Interpreted In a very Inspiring
and challenging manner. Six
disciples of differing degrees of
loyalty and of different concep
tions of service all one after the
other appeared before Evange
line, the servant of Christ, who
v showed them that genuine service
Is sacrlflcal, burdensome, and on
b done by a humble, contrite
h?art. Cross-bearing was the
th&me.
Young ladles of the church un
der the direction of Mrs. J. B.
Jcnes made up the cast of the
pageant. These were Hlldred
Stalling1*, the first disciple; Annie
liou Williams, the second disci- I
pie; Frances Bunn, the third dis- |
clple; Orpnia Jones, the fourth
disciple; Elsie Perry, the fifth
disciple; Colleen Stalllngs. the
sixth disciple and Janice Lewis,
Evangeline. \
Mrs. Raleigh \Alford was the {
pianist and interpreted beautiful
ly the Inspiring music connected
with sacrifice and service, and
valuable assistance in this task
was rendered by a chorus of the
church which was in \the back
ground and which sa rig during ]
the short intermissions In the j
program. \
Lumpkin's Address
W. L. Lumpkin spoke for a
short time on the values of com
munity cooperation and commu
nity spirit of the right sort, and
bis points and his illustrations
were well chosen. His address
was favorably received by the
(roup.
The speaker praised the com
munity for its spirit of enterprise
and cooperation, urged the con
tinuation of the Homecoming cel
ebration. and expressed bis pleas
ure in having the opportunity
of being again among old friends.
He contrasted communities with
the right sort of spirit with those
' with the wrong sort; and deplor
ed such conditions as exist in
places like Spain, where commu
nity is aligned against communi
ty, friend against friend, relative
against relative, and state against
state ? even families against fam
ilies and ministers against min
isters.
