The girls enjoyed taking fruit and visiting with Mrs. Mol ly McCrane on the same evening. Each enjoyed the treat they re ceived. Tape Recorder Valued The diversified uses of the tape recorder is really "catching on" in these parts. It is well that it should, for I can think of no other late invention which could be of more service to our churches. Joe Bullock of the First Baptist in Black Mountain is making good use of one, as is Willard Darby in our community. Services on Sunday are recorded and taken to those who cannot attend church. Though this playing of the Sun day services to the shut-ins is not entirely perfected yet, plans are being made along that line, whereby more people will be able to listen to their own church ser vice. Rev. John Cansler, Free Will Baptist, also makes good use of the recorder. On Monday night, March 20, they had a beautiful choir praice. Songs they had sung were recorded and played back to the youth. As this was being done each member marched around the microphone, confessing to be Christian, testifying and ask ing people across the valley for their prayers. Songs are recorded and earned to the sick also. Young People's Banquet Young people of the N.
