The Cliffside News The Cliffside News is published each week in connection with The Forest City Courier. B. E. ROACH Editor METHODIST CHURCH NOTES. Monday afternoon at 3:30 the Junior missionary society met with Mrs. G. C. Shuford. The attendance was good and two new members were added to the society. There was a very interesting program embrac ing the study of the Philippine child ren. The contribution was good. These children are interested in their work and we are interested in , great things from them. The regular prayer meeting was : held Wednesday evening at. 7:30. We ; feel that this is the best service of cur church and wish more of our members would take advantage of this service. On Friday at 7:30 we had our j second church social at the church • We enjoyed talks by members of the j church and the pastor, Rev. D. H., Rhinehardt made an interesting talk on "ways by which we can become more efficient workers." At the con clusion of the talks all gathered on the lawn in front of the church and joined in various games, Then came the best part of any social —the "eats." Sandwiches, cakes and iced punch were served from a large table 5n front of the Sunday school build ing. There was on e hundred present and every one had a good time. We hope that, when the next social comes around every member of th e church will be present. Sunday's services began at 9:45. We are proud that our Sunday school went past the usual attendance with out any contest or special campaign. We had 198 present. The ladies class continues to grow. We are proud of our class, but the ladies class is composed mostly of ; mothers and we are especially proud cf it for all know that it is hard for mothers to attend anything regular. At the close of the lesson, Mrs. ! Rhinehardt in a very fitting way pre sented Mrs. G, C. Shuford, the teach- j er of the class with a beautiful sand wich tray as a token of the love , .and appreciation of trie class for Mrs. Shuford. The gift was a surprise and the occasion was the wedding anni versary of Mr. and Mrs. Shuford. i As last Sunday was the fifth Sun day Rev. Rhinehardt preached at 11:00 a. m. He has been preaching splendid sermons and we think the last message surpasses the previous message. Sunday his text was Acts 2:38-39. He told us how we should concentrate and think of the future and not just of the present. We should have system, plans to lead. We are helpless in our undertakings if leave out th e Holy Spirit. To be saved we must receive the Holy Spirit. We must attend our church services and be drilled in christian living. W e should have various ways of creating enthusiasm. Let us not be "Pump Christians", having to be helped or pushed over so often, rather let us be as an artesian well continually springing up with living waters by the power of the Holy Spirit. Paul tells us in Acts 2:38-39, "Then Peter said unto them, Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jestfs Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghi»st. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call." Prayer meeting will be held Wed-! nesday at 7:30 p. m., and Sunday school next Sunday at 9:45 a., m.' Next Sunday being the first Sunday 1 it will be our regular preaching day ! at 11:00 a. m. — Dean I. 0. Schaub, head of the j school of agriculture at State col lege, says that every farmer and, farm woman in North Carolina has J a cordial invitation to attend Farm' • and Home Week exercises at Stat/2 college, July 29, to August 1. Over 2.000 persons were present last sum mer. i Frank Seagles, of Lincoln county,' reports a yield of over 300 bushels of wheat from ten acres of land this yeaiv The grain weighed 63 pounds to the measured bushel.

' The church school of music which | began Monday of last week with ' prof. J t H. Ruebush in charge has 'been making fine progress and the attendance has been much larger than : expected. The three classes meeting at nine a. irw, two p. m., and again at seven-thirty p. m., as well as the 'special classes in voice and harmony have been meeting in the assembly room of the intermediate department "he folding doors were opened and j extra seats placed to accomodate the large classes. Saturday night they all met in th e main auditorium and we were delighted to have the "Hig gins Sisters Quartet" sing a few numbers which entirely captivated the large audience. Prof. G. U Shirley, |' The Bird Man" who is a famous imitator of birds and a lecturer and well as a music teacher sang some »r his compositions and gave a few I bird calls.

There were 498 present with three new pupils enrolled and 38 visitors. The pastor read for the morning lesson Rev. 21 and delivered a fine message. The Misses Higgins sang again for ua. The song service was fine and as a result of the school of r.'usic already improvement in con gregational singing was noted. The evening hour was given over to music and there were visitors from all over this section many coming eighteen or twenty miles. It had been announced that extra seats would be provided wherever possible in the wings and balcony to accomodate the crowd expected. People were here from Chesne e and other points in South Carolina, from Lattimore, Mooresboro, EllenbJro, Spindale, Forest City, Henrietta, Avondale, and Caroleen and from beyond Har ris. The Misses Higgins with their delightful music was the center of attraction. Their numbers were in terspersed throughout the program with congregational singing and an organ solo in order not to tire them. They will be in this section all this week. A free will offering was taken lo help defray their expenses. There were several here from Boiling Springs also. Mr. Price and some friends from Lattimore arrived Sunday morning in time for the classes in Sunday school. Mr. Price is famous for his large collection of nearly all varie ties of flowers that will grow in this He brought a beautiful bas ket of one of his special varieties of yellow daisies and a great armful ox som e of the finest gladiolas of almost all the colors of the rainbow.

Will Control Pellagra In Richmond County Cooperating with the county health department, Mrs. Anna Lea Harris, home agent of Richmond county, has set about eradicating pellagra as one of the main exten sion projects for that county this year. "The whole county is cooperating j to get this job done," says Mrs. Jane j S. McKimmon, state home demon stration agent at State college. "Our home agent, Mrs. Harris is searching out suspected cases and getting them to the doctor while she pres cribes a better balanced diet for the family. She has succeeded in getting the local dairies to supply milk to the cases at a reduced price and a local relief committee is helping to furnish other foods on the diet list. A number of individual gardners who may have a surplus of different vegetables are turning these over to the committee to be used where they are most needed^" In some cases it is possible for the family afflicted with th e disease to have a garden of their own. In such cases, the home agent helps to supply seeds and plants to get the plot started. Mrs. McKimmon says that both white and negro families are assisted. There is no discrimina tion. This plan being tried in Richmond county could be adopted in every county of North Carolina where this disease is found, says Mrs. McKim mon. If such vigorous measures are put into operation in every such county, North Carolina would soon be classed with the npn-peljagjra states. Mrs. McKimmon says the home agents are anxious to cooper ate with the health authorities when ever they are needed.

NEW YORK CITY Tires Are So Cheap Now why not have the BEST WfSO!mfH $ 1 IH^H THE GREATEST NAME IN RUBBER Tire prices today are at the lowest point in the his tory of the rubber business. The difference in price between the best standard tire and one that you can't be sure of, is, if anything, hardly enough to count. That removes the I2.KJ w excuse a sensible man' can have for not buying as excellent a tire as the Good year All-Weather Tread Balloon. It is the standard of quality of the world; it out sells any other tire in the world! it is the basis of the eloquent fact that "More people ride on Goodyear Tires than on any other kind!" You want the biggest possible money's worth in safety, traction, dependability and mileage when you buy a tire —you can get it now at no premium in the standard Goodyear All-Weather. our size is waiting for you at a price you can af ford to pay—no farther away than the nearest Good year Dealer! Goodyear can give you greater tire values because Goodyear builds more than ONE-FOURTH of all the tires sold in America, the remainder being divided a mong some forty manufacturers, "More people ride on Goodyear Tires than on any other kind."
