Many of the younger members
now play> an important part in
the life of this beautiful old
country church, deep in the
woods several miles out from
Eagle Springs.
' The program opened at 11 a.
m. with worship led by the past
or, the Rev. H. A. McBath. Dr.
Reid Graham, missionary work
er in a theological school in India,
as guest speaker told of revolut
ionary changes planned for India
under its new freedom. He cred
ited Christian missions with many
progressive steps taken.
Dr. Graham, a native of Penn
sylvania, was heard with unus

Carthage in early childhood, lat

people still live- As a young
Davidson college graduate he
went to the Punjab in 1929 and
remained until 1932, when he
came back to attend Yale univer

to India, he wwked there until
his return to Yale last year for
a refresher course. He plans to
resume his work in India this
