The hoard of Stewards of the Meth odist church hold their annual re organization meeting Thursday eve ning, and were most enjoyably en tertuined at tho hospitable home of Mr. D. J. Lowry. A bountiful oyster supper was served, starting with oysters on tho half-shell and running the gamut of "stews” and "fries,” with an abundance of accompanying good things, in caring for which the brethren gave "a good account of their stewardship.” After the ban quet, the board was rc-organlzed by the re-eleetiou of Dr. L. S. Ledbetter as Chairman, nnd Mr. J. \V. Judkins us llecoriUng Steward and Treasurer. Miss Ley la Cnliins was elected organ 1st, nud Miss Eva Belize! assistant. The salary "f the pastor, Hev. T.
