latest.
I Attendance at Sunday school is
; growing and last Sunday there were
j 450 present with twenty-eight new
' members and many visitors. Some
] who have rededicated their lives to
?God during the Stephens meetings
j have"said they are now ready to go j
to work and in many ways we see
splendid results of the meetings.
All the work of the church is ex- j
! pected to grow and take on new life
as a result of the meetings. The B. |
Y. P. U's. are doing fine work now
and beginning with next. Sunday the
regular schedule of meetings and
I work can be resumed.
All seats in the Young Men's Ber
jean Bible class except three or four
were filled last Sunday and some
jwere absent because of a death. Per
jhaps a few more seats can be placed
,in the room to accommodate the
j others who some of the members say
, are going to join the class. Anyway
! space will be provided.
j The Men's Bible class is alnSjst
• doubled in attendance and in fact all
1 classes are growing at a splendid
Irate. We are glad to extend to each
new member a hearty welcome and
i hope each one will find a place to
THE FOREST CITY COURIER, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1930
Science has not yet been able to perfect the mechanical man
known to us as the Robot so that it can do the household work. |
There isn't a doubt, however, that the Robot would, so far as |
baking is concerned, follow the instructions of the modern house-1
keeper to use Rumford the all phosphate baking powder. Every |
mother knows how important a part fresh milk plays in the diet |
of a growing child. Rumford, in hot breads and cake, works to the |
same end —building strong bones and teeth, developing proper $
nerve tissue. For Rumford contains phosphate of calcium in great |
quantity. In fact, two Rumford biscuits contain more of this valu-1
able compound than does a large glass of milk. And remember |
that it'takes fifty quarts of milk to equal the phosphate content of $
a one-pound can of Rumford. (Herbert Photos, New York, N. Y.) §

four more Sunday night. There have

rededications.
! Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Holton of
High Point came over the 14th. Mr.
Holton stayed over until ifce Mon
. dav following, but Mrs. Holton re
mained for the rest of the meetings
and has been a wonderful and tire
less worker with the other members
■
composing the Evangelistic party.
I On last Friday afternoon Mrs.
George Stephens and four daughters
came over to be with Mr. Stephens
over the week-end. They left Mon
day for their home at High Point.

WAR CAUSES.
Emil Ludwig, has just published
a new book entitled, "July 14. • in
it he exposes all the diplomatic ma
chinations of the ministers of Eu
rope who ushered the world war in
to existence. He shows that the stait
ing of the conflict was largely in the
hands of a few counts and nobles
and powerful generals in militarized
Europe who wanted to see their
machines'put to practical use.
As you read that book you see
that such intrigue, and such pucilan
imous cowardice and dishonesty on
the part of foreign offices, could not
today operate to plunge the world
into a holocaust like that of 1914.
We are now able to negotiate with
other nations. And the general pub
lic is more determined than ever
before to prevent a recurrence of
such a world wide catastrophe.
To be sure the need for arma
ments is not past. Fear, national
rivalry, racial animosity still exist,
Perhaps your neighbor
wants it? ...
Surplus seed, a piece or two of spare
furniture, a few more head of live-stock
than you want to keep— regardless o:
what it is you have for sale, try a WANT
AD IN THE FOREST CITY COURIER.
They find the buyers immediately—
they're time savers and money makers.
The cost is only one cent a word.
