MEITCCIUB, Baptist Church Organi zes Qood Fellowship Club and Rein forcement Campaign MUCH PROGRESS. Dr. I:. D. Poe, paster of the Baptist church, as he was leaving the city Monday morning to hold a revival meeting at Buie's Creek Academy stated that the Baptist Church was moving for ward in all the departments of its activities. Besides the completion of the handsome new parsonage which will be ready for occupancy this week, the pastor said that a Men's Club had been organized, consis ting of about fifty men, the main object of which is to promote fel lowship and religion among the men of the church and community. Already, he said, this club has plans for enlisting all of the unen- listed men of the church in some aehnite church activity as we as 0 eo u, . he rura co,ninunj,jes and interest them in all the under takings of the Baptist denomina tion. Mr. Chas. R. Daniel is pres ident of this club and Mr. O. P. Mohorn is secretary. The mem bership ot the club is divided into four groups with Messrs. Newton Shepherd, C. F. Gore, B. G.

Another matter of vital impor tance which is engaging the inter est of the church at this lime is the Souihside Re-enforcement Cam paign which was puton three years aeo. The new movement is an effort on the part of the denomina tion to enlist all the unenlisted members in the program launched three years ago.
