NEW BRICK CHURCH
Under the leadership of J;m
Wells, well known colored leader
of the River View Baptist church
community, the 45 members of that
church will engage in a dedicatorial
service Sunday, July 18, at which
time appropriate services will be
held and the key to the church pre

did much of the planning for the
new church. Gifts of money and
material were given by the white
and colored alike. Jim stated that
he took his singing class to practi
cally every white church in the
county and on every occasion a
nice sum of money was given to
ward the church.
The colored people of the com
munity have been very active in
church building. The church in
East Sylva is now being enlarged
.and concrete blocks are being used.

In Memory Of R. D. Phillips
We, the pec pie who are in the
Utate of Washington, wish to ex-'
! press our deepest sympathy to!
the family of R. D. Phillips, who
passed away some few days ago.
It broke our hearts to hear the
news of his death, but that is one
thing that will come to all of us.
Mr. Phillips was a great singer,
but new that he has been called
out of this world of trouble and
sorrow, he can sing forevermore.
We know that we won't miss him
like you folks there will, but still
j our hearts are broken.
: We, too, are 'a family who try
! to sing, but there will come a day
: w*hen we can join in with Mr.
I Phillips and sing again together
But it won't be like it was down
here: we won't need any musicians
in heaven.
Then we won't have to walk
these old muddy .roads trying to
1 get to church and other places,
because the streets will be of gold.
It has only been a short while
since iClr. Phillips had to say good
bye to one of his boys, but we
hope and pray that they are both
happy together.
His family will miss him in every
way, but if there are any of them
who are not prepared for a bet
ter world, they should begin to
think about "Where Will I Spend
Eternity?" The Bible says God
giveth and God taketh away and
you can wait down here to do
things, but when God calls, you
have to go, prepared or unprepared.
We are sorry that we could not
I be there for the funeral of a dear
friend. Our prayers will be that
everyone in the world who isn't
prepared to die will get ready
before it is too late.
Mr. and Mrs. Albert Blanton and
Family.
Card of Thanks
We wish to express our appre
ciation to our friends for their
kind expressions of sympathy and
for the beautiful offerings sent at
the time of the death of our hus
band and father.
