The Cliffside News The Cliffside News is published each week in connection with The Forest City Courier. B. E. ROACH Editor BAPTIST CHURCH NOTES The subject for the mid-week service last Wednesday night was the "Social and Moral Condition existing when Jesus Came." The week before the subject was "Political Conditions at the coming of Jesus." The sub ject this week will be the "Religious Conditions existing at the time Christ came." These studies preface a study of the Life of Christ. The W. M. S. observed the week of prayer last week meeting each af ternoon at the R. R. Haynes Memorial Building. On Tuesday of last week they decided to make some quilts for the Orphanage and during their spare time several quilts were made ready for quilting. On Tuesday night of this week they met at the memorial building for an old time "quilting bee" and quilted several of the quilts. They now have about twelve nice new quilts. The rough weather Sunday morn ing cut attendance the lowest it has been in years. Only 287 were in time to be counted when the records were made in the Sunday school. A number came in late and others came in time for the preaching service. The teachers will hold their meet ing at memorial building Thursday • night, meeting at 7:15. Mrs. John L. Scruggs and Messrs.

THE CITIZENS BANK & TRUST COi RUTHERFORDTON UNION MILLS SPINDALE The Cliffside News SLIFFSIDE'S HOME PAGE, UNDER T HE DIRECTION OF LOCAL EDITORS committee will serve during Decem ber. Mrs. R. B. Watkins and Mrs. P. R. Greene received diplomas for having completed a study of the Sun day school manual. For many years the Sunday school, or the church has been giving the members, especially those in the Junior Department and below this age, a Christmas Treat consisting of candies, nuts, fruits, etc. Last Sun day morning when the Superinten dent asked if this would be the pro gram again this year, Mr. P. C. Hawkins, Superintendent of the Jun ior Department arose and stated that some of the Juniors and their teach ers suggested in their Department that instead of receiving a gift from the church, Christmas, that they bring a gift to the church. This idea seemed to strike with favor and in a few minutes the entire school vot ed unanimously to dispose with this feature this year and instead make a gift to the church! The pastor said he approved the move and stated that sometimes we are too prone to think of what we can get from the church instead of what we can give to it. Mr. J. C. Cowan of Rutherfordton was a visitor at church last Sunday. We were glad to have him and a few others who were visiting here. Mr. Cowan is Superintendent of the M. E. Sunday School at Rutherfordton. The subject for the morning serm on was "A Pattern for Service" and Rev. Smith pointed out that Jesus found opportunity for service every where, though He made no show of His service. The text; for the evening service was Ist Cor. 9: 34; "So run that ye may attain."
