To open the meeting, which wro,
held Bt the Woman’s ctobheny,
Mn. Herbert Cobh, of.the WBk^
boro Society, led a directed medl-
Utlon, after which Mrs. A. C,
Wkggoner, of the hostess church,
spoks words of welcome with re-
spoBse being glT«» *>J
EUlott, also of the WUkeeboro
church. Mrs. Harry Pearson, of
North Wllkesboro, and president
of the district, presided and Mrs.
B. S. Call, of WUkeeboro, served
as secretary.
‘"Thy Kingdom Come” waa;the
theme for Mrs. Cobb’s meditation,
which was interspersed with a
number of hymns played softly at
the piano by Mrs. William Mar
low. Mrs. Cobb said His King
dom of peace, love, and service,
must come through each of us.
Mrs. Dawsey, of Boone, and
rural worker for the district, in
beginning quoted Edwin Mark
ham’s poem ‘'Live and Let Live’
es basis for her thoughts. God has
given each of us various gifts, and
he expects us to use these gifts in
service for Him, for it is a defi
nite responBlbillty that we have.
In telling about her work she
stated that she had organized flW'
Youth Fellowships and two Wo
man’s SocieOes. great need in
her work was literature to hand
to new societies and Youth Fel
lowships when organized, end she
urged that Societies nleaso pass
on to her study books, program
materials, or other literature that
they have finished with.
With ‘‘Reserves” as her topic
for discussion, Mrs. Clark, of Mt.
Airy, *®d conference vice-presi
dent, made a most interesting
comparison of our nation’s fight
ing forces and the work of the
Woman’s Society. The govern
ment says to our men “go.” and
God says to us “go”, and it is Im-
peretlve that wq do unite our wo
men to service. Onr Woman s 8or
clety’s Army is made up of mis
sionaries, doctors, teachers, Bible
women, deaconesses, and other
workers, and onr bases are our
schools, settlement houses, or
phanages, Weeley Houses, centers,
hospitals, and other Ohristtan in
stitutions. Reserves are greatly
needed to carry on this work, and
H' is up to onr women to bring up
these Reserves, and they must
come from our homes and from
our pocketbooks.
During the morning session re
ports were heard from a number
of the district officers including
Mrs. Edd F. Gardner, of North
WUkeeboro, the new correspond
ing secretary of the district. Mrs.
Gerdner stated that the district
pledge for last year of *2,200 waa
paid in full, and pledge for this
year was $2,260. She urged that
all Societies get their reports m
on time, also that those Societies
which had not been sending in
their reports begin to do so at
once. Lunch was served by the
hostess church during the noon
hour.
