BAPTIST CHURCH NOTES Despite the inclemency of the weather last Sunday the attendance at the services were pretty good. Sunday school was off some. Last week was observed as chil f dren's week and at the close of the Sunday school last Sunday some of the children under the direction of Mrs. Charles McCurry presented an interesting program. Rev. R. C. Smith used lor hi* sub ject at the morning hour. "Working Together With God." He read from the sth chapter of Judges and his theme was founded on the 23rd verse of this chapter. Recently the church autharized the pastor to appoint a committee to be known as the Fin ance committee, who will plan and direct the finances of the church. Messrs. B. E. Gold, chairman of the board of deacons; P. C. Hawkins, church treasurer and John L. Scruggs, financial secretary were ap pointed. Sunday evening at 6 o'clock, the Layman's League held a very inter esting meeting in the Men's class room at the church. Mr. B. E. Gold, chairman, presided and each group was well represented. Several phases of the work was discussed. One thing worthy of mention was the decision to try to get all church members in the mid-week prayer meetings. The attendance is fine now and if many more come the services will have to be held in the main auditorium. It was decided that the League would meet each first and third Sunday evenings at 6 o'clock at the church for the purpose of formulating plans for work, make reports, etc. The subject for the evening hour was "What comes after the Millen ium?" It was a continuation of the series the pastor has been preaching on Sunday evenings on "The Ages." There will be two more sermons, next Sunday evening and the Sun day evening following on this sub ject. The large attendance is grati fying and the public is cordially in vited to all services. The attendance at the teacher's meeting, on Thursday evenings is DR. H. L. ROBERTSON DENTIST Cliffside. N. C. pj **' Are You Still Experimenting ?

The first 15 or 20 minutes is devoted to subjects that concern the Sunday school as a whole. Last Thursday evening Mr. Carl Matheny made a fine talk on "How to make ouj* Sunday school more evangelis tic." The departmental meetings are very interesting and a plan has been worked out overcoming the difficulty which has been perplexing the teach ers on account of several lessons be ing taught in the same department. The Junior G. A'.s enjoyed a Hal loween party at the Memorial build ing Monday night. There are several other parties of this kind scheduled for this week. The G. A.s invited a number of friends and it was a large and merry party that gathered Mon day night. The costumes were varied and all designs imaginable. Some were decidedly hideous. especially two who Came in late wearing a pa pier-mache skeleton head and the other a grotesque devil's head. Of course the witch and all the hob goblins were present and after much fun and inspection of costumes sev eral games and contests appropriate for the occasion were enjoyed, fol lowed by refreshments and a marsh mallow toast. CLIFFSIDE HI NEWS Informal essays are the seniors' hobby now. We selected one of the best on "Life." Zeb Winn is the' author. Life. "What is the use of life anyway? Men are criticized on ail sides, go ing and coming. His life is very short and he has very little pleasure while in this world. He cannot please every I body and so tries to please nobody. "Man comes into this world without ; hi? consent and iroes out against his will. When he is little he is loved by the big girls and when he is big he is loved by the little girls. He has no one to love him when he needs it. If he does anything his neighbors think that he does wrong. If he is poor he has no friends, if he is rich he gets his money by telling lies. If he spends it he is a loafer. If he does not give it to church work he is called a "tight-wad." If he does, it is for show. If he lives to an old age he missed his calling, but if he dies when he is young, there was a lot of good things in store for him. So what is the use of life?" Sophomores are dealing very se vere with the high school pupils. In their history class they have a court. When any one breaks one of their ! rules they are tried on Friday which is the day when the court convenes. The court consists of Judge: Oras Biggerstaff. Lawyers: Paul Bridges. Rachel Hill. Catherine Hawkins and Edwin Hughes. Deputies: Chivous Luckc-.do and Bertie Bridges. Sher iT: James Goode. Just see what the seniors are do ing! We have organized a Civic Club which meets every Friday. We have elected the following officers: Aileen Gold, president; Bessie Harrill, vice president: Dewey Thomas, secretary and treasurer; Ethel Kirby, Paul Nanney and Louise Lemmons, pro gram committee. From a report made by the di rector of the band of the school, the members are making a great deal of progress. There are now 20 members in the band. They rehearse every Tuesday and Thursday nighti?. As soon as the boy* are competent to render a public concert the girls are go : n£ to organ iz a another orchestra and then the two w-ill combine. CARD OF THANKS We desire to express to our friends and neighbors our sincere apprecia tion of the many acts of kindness shown us during the recent illness and death of our baby boy.
