IN MEMORY In loving memory of my dear mother who left us the 15th of May 1928. In the graveyard sweetly sleeping Where the flowers nod and wave Lies the one we love so dearly In her cold and silent grave But she was patient through all her sickness But she would say children I will never get well But I don’t care for dying Because I am ready to go Dear Mother I miss you so I think of you in silence No eye can see me wee But even in my aching heart Her memory will I keep. Written by her son SHIRLEY DAY FREEZING STRAWBERRIES Many families are freezing straw berries for future use. Isn’t it nice to be able to have fresh strawber ries and other fruits every month in the year? You have that oppor tunity now while they are in season to prepare for the future. From experience we believe that we have the best containers for strawberries and other fruits and vegetables that we have had. Look ahead and be wise. W. C.

IN MEMORY OF DADDY AND BROTHER HENRY THOMAS Who died January sth, 1947 A red rose is a token of love Their beauty given from God above A white rose for a Father who is dead For a living Dad your rose is red. It seems as those of my heart is drained of all the life therein As I so sadly lift this rose from my lapel to unpin This such a lonley feeling As this rose I put away To think I’ll never wear again A red rose on Father’s day I know that I can never bear To pick a red rose for my hair Without thinking of every way I wore a rose on Father’s day. I pray to God for piece of mind He will guide me through the '* years And help me mend a broken heart His love will dry my tears away His daughter Mrs. Ruth Price and sister Mrs. Ervin Gravitt.

M. & 7:30 P. M. Sunday School WALTER M. BLACKWELL, Pastor BAPTIST CONVENTION The Southern Baptist Convention that convened in St. Louis last week was one of the best sessions in the history of the Convention and the attendance of 8,378 registered mes sengers was the largest on record of any previous session. The spirit of the meeting was at top scale and the fellowship and inspiration was excellent. St. Louis is a great City of one and a quarter million people. The auditorium where the meetings were held seats 10,000 people and many times during the sessions it was packed full, many standing and the corridors and large book store jammed with others. lit is a great thrill to the soul of anyone to hear such a congregation singing the old hymns. There were many musical features by quartetts, chorouses both white and negroes. The re ports disclosed more than 250,000 baptized during the year and the largest gifts to missions reported at anytime. All 20 states cooperat ing with the convention, were re presented. In the convention there are 928 district associations, 26,000 churches, and a membership of more than six million. Two of the highlights of the meetings were the progress of the Home and Foreign Missions Board that ninety-five and four-tenths cents of every dollar given for mis sions goes for that work and only the remainder of the dollar goes for the expenses of operating the Board, many reports to the con trary however, of course only by those who are too everlastingly stingy to give to missions and use it for an excuse. If more preachers and laymen would attend these conventions and keep posted and instructed as to what our great denomination iis doing, they would not be “kickers” but “pullers”. More than half of the churches are in the country and more than one-third of the present number of our churches were start ed by the Home Mission Board. Someone made this statement: “The greatest discovery is to find the will of God. The greatest ac complishment is to do the will of God”. It was a great meeting and I feel greatly strengthened and built up in the most pure and holy faith from having attended the meeting. 4 Georgia 4-H’ers Win National Camp Trips June 11-18 pour Georgia youngsters—two 4-H club boys and two club girls— won trips to the 17 annual National 4-H Club Camp to be held at Ar lington Farms, Va. across the Po tomac River from Washington, June 11-18, according to W.
