One hundred seventy-six attend
ed Sunday school Sunday, February
19. This was equivalent to more
than seventy-three per cent of the
total enrollment of the Sunday
school and lacked only three of be
ing equal to the largest attendance
record made during the calendar
year. The Cradle Roll Department
led in attendance, the Junior De
partment in number of prepared
lessons and the Intermediate De
partment in preaching attendance.
The Baptist Training Union rec
ord showed that fifty-seven attend
ed last Sunday, evening. This was
an increase over the preceding Sun
day evening when the record was the
highest for the calendar year. The
Juniors (with the exception of the
100 per cent record of the general
officers) led in attendance, while the
Intermediates showed a 100 per
cent record in giving to the church,
and the Senior Union showed a 100

Expression of appreciation was
given for the flowers placed in the
church by the Woman’s Christian
Temperance Union of the city. These

in memory of Frances Willard whose
birthday was last Sunday.
The Holy Spirit and his work is
the theme chosen for the eleven
o’clock service Sunday morning,
February 26, when the pastor will
discuss the question as to whether
or not God himself works in the
lives of all normal persons in 1939
through the agency of a real person
—the Holy Spirit. John 16:7-15
will be the chief scripture basis for
this discourse. A tax-collector’s pre
sentation of the Messiah of Old
Testament prophecy will be discuss
ed at the evening preaching hour. A
male quartet will be rendered at
this hour, it is planned. The illness
of Mr. Howard Perdue, a member of
this quartet, prevented this num
ber’s being rendered Sunday even
