A Neighbor’s Plan
ONE OF YOUR FRIENDS is quietly build
ing up a snug little fortune. You will be sur
prised some day and wonder how he did it.
But it is a very simple story.
This man does not have a large income. He
has never made a large savings deposit in his
life. Small deposits made every week is the
secret of this man’s success. His savings ac
count shows a steady climb for years.
The average man fails to win because he is
not willing to make small savings deposits
and make them as often as possible.
Most any one can see the importance of
making a big deposit—but many fail to under
stand the value of the small ones.
Think it over.

FROM THE FIDELIS CLASS
There is a class at the Baptist Sun
day School which may be defined as
an incomplete, though very promis
ing product. It is the Fidelis Class,
which is made up of young ladies
over seventeen. It is the youngest
of the Organized Classes, but bids
fair to rank with the best.
In order to become more profic
ient, the officers and teachers of the
■Fidelis Class invited the officers and
teachers of the other Organized Clas
ses to meet and discuss class duties
with them last Thursday evening at
the church. Mrs. Joe Reeves, Dr. E.
T. Holmes, Col. Claude Christopher,
Messrs. B. H. Hardy, Emmett Lang
ford, E. W. Edenfield, J. T. Middle
brooks, and the pastor made helpful
and inspiring talks. Miss Zedene
Horne presided over the meeting. Af
ter the talks Miss Jewel Maddox
sang a solo, accompanied by Miss
Marion Bush. A social hour was
then enjoyed, during which a salad
course with coffee was served by the
hostesses.
All young ladies over seventeen,
with a Baptist preference, are cor
dially invited to become members of
the Fidelis Class. A warm welcome
awaits each new member.

WOMAN’S CLUB IN REDBONE
On Friday afternoon, February
3rd, quite a number of ladies met at
the home of Mrs. Fred Bush, for the
purpose of organizing a Woman’s
Club in Redbone District. Mrs. It.
H. Hankinson, President of the Sixth
District Federation of Woman’s
Clubs, presided over the meeting.
Her speech was an inspiration to all
who heard her, as she spoke on sub
jects of keen interest to women of
rural districts.
The next meeting of the Club will
be held on Second Tuesday at 2:30
o’clock, at he home of Mrs. Mel
Bush. All the ladies of the district,
and others, who are interested, are
cordially invited to be present.
Quite a number of farmers arc
planning to raise peppers this year.
Others are interested in hog raising,
and dairying. Perhaps the day will
come, when a monument to the boll
weevil will be erected in the center
of Redbone District, however, that
day is far distant, for the advent of
the boll weevil has jolted the farmer
entirely out of the rut, and at pres
ent the attitude of the farmer to
wards he boll weevil is anything but
gratitude.
The District Court House has
been recovered, new benches provid
ed and a heater installed. It is now
more comfortable for the ladies, when
they come to vote.
The many friends of Miss Mattie
Tyus, in Redbone District, extend to
her their sympathy in her recent be-
