MUTUAL SENDS THE CHECKS.
In the report for October benefits
I paid in Georgia I notice a total of
| $160,110.97. Ten persons in Forsyth
County shared these benefits, the
smallest check being for $15.00 and
the largest $205.75. When I see the
great Joy with which these checks
are received by the policyholders
and the anxiety they relieve during
a time of stress, I wish I could pro
vide a policy for every one in this
community. As I am not financially
able to do this, the best I can do Is
urge you to give me your applicat
ion NOW, so the benefits will be
available when you need such help.
The cost is low compared to the
benefits offered by a policy with

ated by 92 other telephone compan

“Telephone progress here in Cum
ming is symbolic of communications
progress throughout the nation,” Mr
Sealey said. “The number of tele
phones here has more than doubled
since 1945, and the number continu
es to increase. The heavy demand
for more telephone service that we
have experienced in Georgia and
Cumming has been felt throughout
the nation.”
Presentation of the symbolic 50,-

Sharon Church Services
By Kate Kay Harris
Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all
that is within me, bless His holy
name. Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and forget not all His benefits
Psalm 103: 1-2
We aare all much in prayer and
ask everyone to join us for our dear
and humble pastor who is in the
Cumming hospital suffering from
injuries received in aa serious acci
dent.
We missed him so much in the
Service during the weekend but
were thankful for those who so faith
fully and humbly came and supplied
for him.
Rev. John H. Ozley, pastor of the
Cumming Methodist church preach
ed and acted as moderator for only
a* short conference on Saturday. Us
ing as his text from St. John, “I
give them eternal life and they
shall never perish,” Rev. Ozley gave
us a very comforting and interest
ing message.
He ponted out that our eternal
life begins when we are scaved from
our sins. Death is only the dressing
room for the better part of our eter
nal life and we are thankful to
know that life beyond the graye
will all be happiness and not full of
troubles and trials like the one on’’
this side.
On Sunday, we were very glad to
have our former pastor Rev. P. W.
Tribble for both services. After a
real good Sunday School lesson
about Jesus feeding the hungry peo
ple, Rev. Tribble fed us with a spirit
ual message on the subject, "Meet”.
Hfe'”pfroved to us that God will al
ways meet with us when we do our
part and meet him humbly repent
ant and with faith. We can be as
sured that God will do His part
when we get our hearts right and
do our part.
The entire B. T. U. programs on
Sunday night were on the line of
Thanksgiving. Since we are celebrat
ing the Thanksgiving season we
should really give our heartfelt
thanks to God for our many, many
blessings. The adults had some very
interesting discussions on, “We
Thank Thee, Lord, for the Simple
.Things of Life, “for the Privilege
and opportunity of Being Helpful,”
For Life Itself,” and “For our Heri
tage.”
We are certainly not thankgul
enough for all material things and
also the privileges we have to be
living and wel land able to be doing
things for our master. We would be
amazed at the number if we started
counting our blessings that we
should be thankful for.
Rev. Tribble brought another
goo-d message on Sunday night on
“And they stood every man in his
place”. He stressed the importance
of every Christian finding out, thru
prayer, where our place is to work
and stay in that place. We will be
rewarded, not according to the size
of the job we have, but according to
how well and how faithfully we do
whatever He gives us to do.
We would like to express our heart
felt gratitude to Rev. Ozley and to
Rev. Tribble for helping us out in
the absence of our pastor and let us
all continue to pray for the comfort,
spiritual strength and a restoration
of health to Bro. Nalley that he
might soon be back with us.

outdoors, seek shelter and alongside a building, or Jump in the nearest
ditch or gutter.
2. Drop flat on ground or floor. To keep from being tossed about and
reduce chances of being struck by falling and flying objects, flatten
ont against a wall, or at the bottom of a bank.
3. Bury your face in your arms. When you drop Oat, hide your eyes
