Levin Lake Speaks
Jo Optimist Club
V - ■ ■

St. Paul's Episcopal church, Wilkesboro,
was guest speaker at

held Tuesday noon at Hotel

of a minister — his preparation
for the ministry and his service
to his congregation and the community
in which he may be located.
Mr. Lake divided the duties
of a minister into three parts*
"Priestly," "Prophetic," and
"Pastorial."
Guests at the luncheon were
Jimmy Day with his father, Optimist
W. M. Day; Paul Osborne
and Levin Lake with Optimist O.
K. Whittington; W. G. Hutchinson,
of Charlotte, with Optimist
Lewis Jenkins.
President Albert Garwood presided
over the luncheon meeting
which opened with singing "America,"
repeating the club creed in
unison, and invocation spoken by
iRev. C. Jay Winslow.
The next meeting of the club
will be on Tuesday, August 22nd,
with Optimist Russell Pearson in
charge of the program.
