Many of the advertisers
participating in this year’s
contest have donated in
past contests, but there are
some new faces as well.
Two of the prizes that will
be awarded next week are
from business owners who
are participating in the
“Churchworker of the
Year’’ contest for the first
time.
Angela Simpson of Hie
Undercover Book Store,
located at 115 E. Blvd. and
Betty Slater of MWS Asso
ciates, located at 2507
Westerly Hills Dr., are two
such advertisers. Both of
them decided to partici
pate in the contest in the
hopes that it will generate
new business.
—Ms. Simpson is the owner
of a book store that spe
cializes in Afro-American
literature. In addition to
books, her store features
cards, games, and jewelry.
In her opinion, the
“Churchworker of the
Year” contest is some
thing the entire black
community could learn
from. “Any time there is
the practice of unity, like
that depicted in this con
test I think it should
spread from without the
■confines of the church and
go into the entire Mack
-community.. We nawi tn
support this type of com
ing together,” she assert
ed.
Mrs. Slater sees her bu
siness’ involvement in the
contest as a sensible thing
to do. She is the co-owner of
a beauty salon. “I think the
“Churchworker of the
Year” contest is a good
one. There are so many
businesses and churches
that are around each
other. It only makes sense
to me that we get involved
with one another to see
what we can do for each
other,” she concluded;
It is obvious that many of
the Post’s advertisers feel
as Mrs. Slater does. By
their participation in the
annual contest they’re
actually saying that they
fully support the communi
ties from which these
churchworker candidates
live.
