Fun games were played and prizes won. Fancy cup cakes were a delightful addition. The men were pretty good at making faces on the pumpkins, too. There were some rather “far out’costumes. Merry hearts were quite evident. Williamsburg, Va., was the subject of the beautiful slide program with sound which was presented by Ms. Laetsch who very ably represents Southern Bell Telephone Company.

Martin, pastor of the Oteen-Azalea United Methodist Church Circuit was Kotary News by John Abernethy On November 1 Black Mountain Rotarians gave a standing ovation to their president, Ted Cooper, for his outstanding leadership during the four months since his induction. Earlier in the meeting he had told the club of being transferred to Nash ville, N.C., effective im mediately. A letter of ap preciation and good wishes, signed by club members, was presented to President Cooper, along with a Rotary Club banner. The Rev. Neal Wyndham, vice-president, was elected president V the clubs Board of Directors in a special meeting that preceded the Rotary luncheon. The board also named Dr. Larry Wilson as a club director for the remainder of the Rotary year. Both of these men will assume their duties immediately. Cooper and his family came to Black Mountain five years ago when Carolina Power and Light Company transferred him to its local office to be in charge of customer relations. His responsibilities in Nashville will be similar to those he carried here, but the move places him near the com munity in which he was reared. An active member of the Rotary Club, Cooper had previously served as its secretary and vice-president. The Rev. Wyndham is pastor of Black Mountains First Christian Church Disciples of Christ on Conally Street. Before being elected vice-president, he had served on the clubS Board of Direc tors in charge of Vocational Service.

Continued study of Paul’s writings brought out more wonderful lessons in the way to live for Christ. He admonished the brethren and sisters in Christ to love one another.

Many of the group are really quite artistic. There has been considerable numbers of beautiful items made this year. Oh yes, and mention must be of Mary Riggs bir thday celebration with the lovely cake that Viola made for her. The group greatly appreciates the untiring effortr of Mary and Anson Riggs in guiding this program. The Friday bazaar continues each week from 10 a.m. until 12 noon.
