FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH NOTES
(By Reporter)
The strong, plain gospel sermons
delivered by Brother Leon M. Lat
imer during the recent series of ser
vices were an. inspiration and a help
to all who heard them. Nothing spec
tacular, nothing out of the ordinary
—just plain, easily understood ser
mons. No attempt at oratory. We
have had several distinguished di
vines to visit us and conduct our ser
vices from year to year, who did
most excellent preaching, but in the
opinion of this reporter Mr. Latimer
has measured up to any of them.
Among the subjects discussed were
Prayer, Suffering Hardships as a
Good Soldier, The Pearl of Great
Price, The Three Temptations of
Christ, A Time to Plant, a Divine
Plan for Every Life. John 3:16, the
Four Square Life, Re-valuing Our
Lives, Themes from 51st Psalms,
53rd of Isaiah, 11th of Acts, and
others equally interesting. His con
cluding sermon was from Acts, 24:-
25, the answer of Felix to Paul, “Go
the way for this time; when I have
a convenient seasofi, I will call for
thee.” That convenient eason nev
ed came.
The immediate results were four
teen for baptism, and two by letter.
The baptismal ordinance was admin-,
istered by Pastor Johnson, Thursday
afternoon.
Our Sunday School and B. Y. P. u.
will be represented at Apple Valley,
Tuesday and Wednesday of next

IN MEMORY OF OUR FATHER
BENJAMIN PEA BREWER
On Wednesday, June 24th, at It
o’clock, God sent the death angel to>
our home, and took away our pre
cious father. He had been in ill
health for two years, and very r
ious for the last two months. So,,
therefore, death was not unexpected.
Yet it fills our hearts with sorrow t
have to give him up. Still, we iai
izez that God’s will must be, done,
not ours.
Father was 81 years of age. He
served four years of his life for r
| country, and for the uplifting of the
j red, white and blue. IJe was ever
! ready to lend a helping hand to bis
| fellow man.
He had been a member of th
Baptist church for many years. A
few hours before he died, ho lifted
up his heart in prayer to God, thank
ing Him for his honesty, and *-
presing his love for everybody. Then,
closing his eyes, he passed gently
and sweetly away, to the land that
is fairer than day, where pam is
over, where joy and peace abide for
ever more.
Let us not weep, but look forward!
to the judgment, when we can sew
him again, face to face, on the right
hand of God.
Funeral services were held Thurs
day at 11 o’clock, at Bogart Baptist
church, Rev. Stevenson of Athens
officiating.
A precious one from us ha3 gone,
a voice we loved, is still; a place i*
vacant in our home, which never can
be filled.
His daughter,
Mrs. Allie Brewer Sailors.
