I the weekend has been heavy.
I Yet, as I made my round of snoop-
I ing into other peoples business 1
was not too successful. It seems
that people have such away of
being just plain absent minded
i when they suddenly get a call
: from someone whose business is
I just plain snooping into their
affairs. Ana I guess the best way
to begin Salem News is to quote a
line from the prayer that was used
in unison at Julia A. Porter Church
yesterday. And I quote, "U s e us
as instruments of Thy purpose.
Help us to communicate some
(s, iritual blessing to those who
! come within the range of our in
fluence”. And I guess as far as
1 this News is concerned, that would
be you, the reader.
Last Tuesday the Salem Re
(porter joined Mrs. Zed Steele of
(Covington and Mrs. H. H Dillard
