Record, was a member of a Sunday
school class composed of'young and
iniddle-aged mothers, of which we
are all proud. Below is a tribute
written by the class president ants
read last Sunday: ~ ' .
“We, the True Workers class of
Brown’s Chapel Sunday school, wish
to express our deepest love and
sympathy to the family of Mrs. Lena
Whitaker. We have lost one of our
true workers and, indeed, her death
has made our hearts sad. We miss
her at Sunday school and every
where. Lena was always so cheer
ful, and kind and good, and was so
devoted to her class th.at we feel
that she has gone to a better world,
where there will be no parting, no
grief, no sorrow. You cannot come
back to us, Lena, but we can go to
you.
MRS. EFFIE DARK.
President.”

A public speaker once said he had three invariable
rules. He always stood up squarely so all could see,
he spoke plainly so all could hear, and sat down quick
ly so all would be pleased.
We try to adopt a good bit of that in our advertis
ing. We try to display our words so all can see, write
clearly so all can read, and quit before the reader
tires. Our message this week: “We want you to
do business with our bank next year, because we will
render you the best service obtainable.’
