Walter Cobb Moved To Kentucky It is an interesting coincidence that the date of the termination of Dr. J. Walter Cobb’s supply ship, of the Presbyterian Church of Cherryville December 17, 1944 should be the same as the date of the disastrous fire which early on Sunday morning destroyed the church building at the cornel of Mulberry and Academy street. Dr. Cobb has accepted a call to Glasgow, Ky., where the family moved this week.

McCINNIS AND CROCE KILL LARGE HOGS MONDAY Mr. Ervin McGinnis killed a hog Monday, tipping the scales at 532 and Mr. Walter Gross went one still better when he killed one weighing 542. These are the largest porkers reported this year. Last year Mr. McGinnis killed one weighing 490 pounds and seems he has beat that this year. CHRISTMAS May this blessed Christmas season Bring you joy from God above, Fill your heart with peace and gladness, And your soul with His pure love; Though the world is full of sorrow And the nations are at strife, Failing thus to follow Jesus And His wondrous plan of life. But to all who love Him truly He’s the ideal Prince of Peace, Bringing to our hearts and spirits Sweetness that shall never cease, As we worship Him in spirit, Follow Him from day to day, Seek His will in plan and purpose And His holy Word obey. Think of Jesus in the manger, Of His humble, lowly birth; Think of how the angel chorus Sang of peace, good will on earth; Think of Him now up in Heaven Watching o’er His children here, Leading them along life’s journey, For to Him they are most dear.

Then only in case of sickness, or to pay a doctor or hospital bill or like emergency. Almost any one now can buy some bonds and hold them for a rainy day. Please look into the future. From every peri od of prosperity there has always come a period of depression and even want. Shortly after the other World War many people in Cher ryville did not have more than one or two days work per week and many had nothing to do. They were glad to work at almost any thing to get bread and meat. One family of six people told me they went out ail'd picked cotton al though they never had had experi ence and made lesa than $2.60 a day for all of them. Thousands went out and worked on public roads and in cemeteries for 6c per hour and ten hours per day or 60c per day and many of them glad to Think of the contrast that will come to many of us after the present war. If we cash in our bonds and have no nest eg* it will be a serious and hard situation. Saving up one $25.00 per month would mean just that much cash when people generally will have no appreciable income. If you will determine to save something in this way and then do it you will rejoice many a time that someone suggested that you sacrifice now that yon may not suffer then. Therefore, I urge that all save and Buy Bonds and keep them to maturity. In all ages there has been a slump and suffering after war when people suffered. They will again although some who jaw it before do not believe H now. Save and invest in Bonds. D.P.L.
