TO THE PUBLIC:
With this issue of the Tribune, we have been here six months
trying to help you to have a county paper, and you have done
your part, probably better, than we have done ours, but we are
encouraged to continue to do our best.
Quite a number of our subscriptions were paid for only six
months and most of them will expire during the next month and
the only way we have of knowing that you want the paper con
tinued is for you to re-new your subscription.
It is not our policy to try to force any one to read The
Tribune and for that reason, we will not send it to you unless you
indicate your desire to have it by keeping your subscription
paid up.
We thank you for your co-operation and hope to have a
continuation of the same.
THE PUBLISHERS.
PLANS FOR ROUND-UP
WEEK AT CLAYON BAPTIST
CHURCH
The above program, is the re
sult of a conference held by the
pastor and a few interested mem
bers of the Church.
We are planning an interesting
program for next Sunday morn
ing, June 29th, 10:00 a. m.. with
a two fold objective.
First, Every Baptist in the
community will he urged to as
sist as far as possible, by either
paying up your subscription to
the Seventy live Million cam
paign by December 1st, or mak
ing a substantial subscription if
you have become a member of
the church since the campaign
was launched, or for some rea
son was overlooked at the time,
and did not have an opportunity
to subscribe.
Secondly, In finishing our
great Seventy Million task, the
greatest task ever undertaken
by Baptists, we shali be encour
aged to undertake another great
and much needed task, the build
ing of a new Baptist Church in
Clayton. Can any Baptist in
this community call himself loyal
and worthy of a good name, who
is'not willing to act the part of a
food soldier, and stand in the
breach of the battle and be
among the victors when the
smoke has vanished from the
battlefield. ?
We are planning to begin our
round up week, with a good pro
gram next Sunday morning with
number oi five minutes talks
from interested parties, Viz,
Col. J. T. Davis, Miss Bernice
Buchholz, Prof. M. L, Duggan,
Mr. Phipps and the Pastor.
The following subjects will be
discussed;
1. The necessity of finishing a
great task in a great way.
2. Baptists and their opportuni
ty in this age.
3. The necessity of beginning a
great task in a great way. (i. e.
building a new church.)
4. The help that will accrue to
the Baptist church from a gen
eral successful 7b million cam
paign.
5. The stimulus to the Baptist
cause in Clayton which will come
from a new churcn: and the ad
ded effect on Sunday School
werk.
Bro. J. L. Smith has kindly
consented to make an every
member follow-up canvass next
week, and give every member
an opportunity to help finish our
great75 Million task by Dec. 31st.
Your pastor urges every mem
ber to be present Sunday morn
ing, that you may have a voice
in adapting or rejecting the New.
Church plans.
Everybody cordially invited. ,
Pastor. (
