BAPTIST CHURCH NOTES.
Several of our members attended
he Association meeting at Spencer
church at Spindale last week. Our
pastor, Rev. James Allen Hunnicutt
was elected clerk of the Association.
At the same time Mr. G. B. Pruett
of Ellenboro who has served twenty
seven years as clerk was elected
clerk emeritus, which was very fitt
jno as he has served faithfully all
these years. I
A.tendance was off some at Sun
day school last Sunday. There were!
424 present with 12 visitors and sev
en new members enrolled. We glad
ly welcome all these.
Just before the morning sermon the
treasurer, Mr. P. C. Hawkins gave
to the church his financial report for
the month of September which was
very encouraging. It fthowedj thafc
though times are hard contributions
were growing in amount and that
5300.00 was paid on the debt in
addition to the interest paid. If all
would help just a little it would mean
so much to the Kingdom work.
The text was Matt. 25:25, and'
the subject was "Talent Hiding."
Sunday afternoon the girls chor
us ard the male chorus went to Shel
by where they sang at the Cleveland
County singing convention.
The B. Y. P. U's. were well attend
ed Sunday evening, but several did
not go into the general assembly
room when the Unions met for the
closing period. There were 165 pres
ent in the closing assembly. The R.
C. S. Union won the banner for the
week. The Truett and Stephen Un
ions reported that they gave a "P.
W. 0. Q." (program without a quart
erly.) Several others in the other six
unions did not read from their quart
erlys but if one does it the union
cannot report a P. W. 0. Q.
Several are expecting to attend
the B. Y. P. U. rally tonight, (Mon
day) at Rutherfordton.
The evening lesson was from Ro
mans 12:1-9 and the subject was:
"Is it hard to live a Christian life?"
We have heard several favorable
comments today on both the messages
yesterday.
We are planning and praying for
the series of revival services to start
at the Baptist church Sunday, Octo
ber 26, one week from next Sunday
and present plans are to present at
the evening hour a pageant. Mrs. D.
C. Whitaker assisted by Mrs. Charles
McCurry and others will direct it.
This pageant is given in connection
with "Visitation Week."
The Workers' Council will meet
this week on Friday night instead of
Thursday night. Please remember
this change. The meeting will be held
at the church at 7:15 p. m. Every
teacher and officer is urged to be
present.
Next Sunday evening at 7:15 the
pastor will preach a Masonic sermon
and the public is invited. Especially
aie Masons invited to this service.
Masons are expected to be here from
several towns'. All Masons will as
semble in one of the assembly room
down stairs and march into the audi
torium in a body where seats will
he reserved for them.
Among several visitors at church
last Sunday were Mr. and Mrs. Wil
liam Copeland and son, Mr. Alex
Copeland, of Landrum, S. C., and
Prof, and Mrs. E. G. Burton of Gaf
fney, S. C., who attended the morn
ing service.
A man's past is not of so much
concern to the modern woman as his
present.

will be a means of peace. It doesn't
seem to work so well in family af

Sunday services, October 19, 1930:
Sunday school at 9:45 a. m. Preach
ing service at 11:00 a. m., and Ep
worth League at 6:30 p. m.
Mr. Adams held a service of edu
cational lectures for the benefit of
Methodism for this community es
pecially for the Epworth League.
Members from Alexander ..Epworth
League attended the lectures. We
were glad to have them meet with us.
There was no Wednesday night
prayer service due to the lectures.
Friday night closed the lectures with
a social which was greatly enjoyed
by all who attended.
i
Our church service Sunday night
was well attended and as usual our
pastor preached a splendid sermon.
He told us very clearly what things
we must cultivate and strive to at
tain to have a satisfied sense of our
nearness to the Kingdom of God.
Also the things we should keep out
of our lives.
Dr. C. S. McCall and Mr. George
Wood of Forest City were visitors
at church services at the Methodist
church last Sunday.
CLEAN-UP TIME.
Summer's green mantle forms a
beautiful cover for many ugly and
unsightly piles of rubbish and junk.
But with the first touch of Fall leaves
go whirling away from their sum
mer home baring to view the ugli
ness that surrounds or exists in every
community.
This is one reason why Fall is an
ideal clean-up period. No longer are
the crude marks of civilization hid
den from view. No longer can we
admire the beautiful vine covered
hedge without being aware of the
trash and rubbish that may be scat
tered below.
Take particular note of this condi
tion now, and clean-up around your
own property, in order that our com
munity may present as attractive an
appearance at this time as during
other seasons.
