HOW TO WATER
Don’t wait for plants to wilt before
watering is the Extension Service’s
advice to farmers with water systems.
As a rule, the sprinkler should be op
erated in one location anywhere from
2 1-2 to 5 hours. The object is to dupli
cate a half-inch rainfall.

cambia County. In 1918 his friends

AT PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
Preaching 12 a. m.
Sunday School—ll a. m.
The pastor, M. C. Liddell, has re
turned from vacation and is swing
ing into his work with renewed
energy.
It is the duty of every human being
to spend at least one hour a week in
Divine worship— most certainly every
church member.
Sunday should be a day of joy and
happiness—Sunday afternoons, re
creation, such as riding, and games
are fine, but one enjoys these more
if one has been to church in the morn
ing.
A group of people assembled ex
clusively for the worship of Almighty
God is the most important purpose
that can inspire the human mind—the
individual’s personal relation to God.
Morning Subject—“ The Dangers of
Pride.” Theme for the evening hour:
“An Evangelical Message.”
Congregational singing. Come to
our church next Sunday. We are look
ing for you.
