MY CHURCH, YOUR
CliURCH, OUR CHURCH.
Let the members of the Rey
nolds Methodist Church listen
while I whisper to them a lit
tle—no, BIG—secret. The
Hoard of Stewards held their
monthly meeting at the church,
last Monday evening, and unan
imously resolved to put forth ev
ery legitimate effort to put the
Church “OVER THE TOP”, in
time to make a full report to the
congregation at the regular ser
vice on next Sunday morning.
And, they have a notion that
every member of the Church
will want to be present at THAT
SERVICE, if for no other rea
son, to hear the report that they
have planned to make, at that
time. Moreover, the pastor
most cordially and earnestly
joins them in extending to the
entire membership of the
Church the invitation to attend
the worship of next Sunday. To
be sure, he hopes you will have a
desire to enter into the worship,
as well as to hear the report
from th Board of Stewards, at
.me same time, he feels that you
will enjoy the worship any the
less, if you come rejoicing in the
triumph of the effort put forth
by those who are charged with
the responsibility of looking
after »he material interests of
the KINGDOM.
Only two Sundays of the pres
ent Conference year are left to
us. Whether we are to be as
sociated together as pastor and
people for another year, is a
matter to be determined by oth
ers than ourselves. Your pastor
is all the more solicitous that the
remaining services shall be mark
ed by increased attendance on
the part of the membership of
the Church.
Just here I might relate
another little secret to you:
When the membership of a
church show genuine interest,
by faithful attendance and full
support of the church, the pas
tor delights to think of it as
“MY CHURCH;” when inter
est lags, he is tempted to think
of it as, “your church;” buf
when everything is “shipshape,”
and the people love the church
and manifest that love by true
loyalty, the pastor is glad to
join with you in calling it “OUR
CHURCH.” He believes you
share with him these senti
ments. Justify that faith by
co-operating to make next Sun
day’s congregation one of the
largest of the year. All the
friends jf the church have a cor
dial welcome in worshiping with
us. J. H .ALLEN,
Pastor.

CANCELLATION OF GIN
LESS DAYS.
Lame Shoulder.
This ailment is usually caused by
rheumatism of the muscles. All that
is reeded is absolute rest and a few
applications of Chamberlain’s Lini
ment. Try it.
By virture of authority vested
in me as Federal Fuel Adminis
trator for the State of Georgia,
in order issued by me prohibit
ing the use of fuel by ginneries
in this state during certain days
of each week is hereby cancelled
and unless notice to the con
trary is given the Fuel Adminis
tration will not require ginners
to resume the ginless days
which were to have been resum
ed on Monday, November 4th.
In cancelling this order it is
my earnest request that ginners
will continue to cooperate with
the Fuel Administration by vol
untarily conserving fuel to the
greatest possible extent. Gin
ners are requested not to keep
up steam six days in the week
unless the demands of their re
spective communities make it
absolutely necessary for them to
do so.
As Fuel Administrator for
this state I desire to thank the
ginners of Georgia for their
patriotic compliance with the gin
, less days order during the time
when it was in force.

NUT SHELL DRIVE ON
NOVEMBER 16.
Everybody Urged to Increase
Collection From Georgia.
Georgia has been asked to
help in the urgent need for fruit
pits and nut shells which are us
ed to produce carbon used in gas
masks. Every woman, man and
child can help protect our soldi
ers from the horrors of poison
ous gas.
The governor of the state and
chairman of the State Council of
Defense had set apart Saturday,
November 16th, for the collec
tion of pits or seeds from
peaches, plums, cherries, prunes,
dates, olives and the gathering
or hickory nut, walnut and but
ter nut shells. The local Coun
ty Councils of Defense are urged
to hold a meeting and designate
suitable places in every county
in which people may deposit
these pits and nut shells. These
places should be as convenient
as possible all over the county.
At them should be provided
suitable receptacles for the pits
and nut shells. The school teach
ers of the state are urged to
take this up and to have every
pupil instructed as to the need
of this work.
The women of the whole state
can do a wonderful work in this
also. Red Cross chapters have
full information and will accept
all collections for shipments.
Some small towns in some states
have collected as much as a car-
load in a day. The need is ur
gent and it is hoped that all ag
encies will co-operate in making
the collection a memorable one
on November 16th.
