Welcome
Neighbor!
“If from cherished child
hood scenes
Fate and fortune have
brought you here,
And your heart still home
ward leans;
Remember — New friends
with time grow dear.
Your joys, your sorrows are
of ours a part,
So, help us to know you
that we may share
This experience of Life,
with open heart;
Welcome Neighbor! We're
glad you are here.”
From our ‘‘beloved South
Georgia” come one of our new
families this week - Mr. and

children, Kristi 5, Marque 3 and
Carl 11 months, who have re
cently moved from Jesup to make
their home at 1343 Floyd St.
Mrs. Davis, an Atlanta native,
feels she has just ‘‘come home”,
since she is so near Atlanta.
In addition to homemaking, she
enjoys painting, bridge, bowling
and skating.
Mr. Davis, whose hometown
is Blackshear, is a supervisorat
Brunswick, Inleisure moments
he finds reading, hunting and
music relaxing hobbies.
The Davises are being warmly
welcomed into the town and
county, of which they are now a
part.
Mr. and Mrs. Elmar Beck,
who with their children Betty 17,
and Judy 14, have recently moved
from Smyrna, reside at 1105
Lakeview Drive.
Mrs. Beck, a Pickens County
native, enjoys refinishing antique
furniture, sewing and church act
ivities. Mr. Beck, originally
from Bartow County, is with RCA
Truck Lines. Hunting and fishing
are his favorite hobbies.
The Becks are finding a warm
welcome in the Baptist Taber
nacle, of which they are
members; and in various local
activities in which they are in
terested.
Mr. and Mrs. W, V, Eller, and
their sons, Walter 17, John 15,
and Henry 14, formerly of
Gainesville, Va., are at home
at 1329 Floyd St.
Mrs. Eller, a St. Matthews,
S. C. native, enjoys cooking
among her homemaking ‘‘labors
of love’’; and finds needlecrafts,
reading and flower arranging in
teresting hobbies. @ Mr. Eller
whose hometwon is Spencer,
N. C., is with Southern Railway.
He has always been keenly in
terested in working with youth
groups, especially Scouting, in
which he has continued since he
was a Boy Scout; and names
spectator sports and bowling
among his hobbies.
The Ellers, like the Davises,
have not made a choice of local
churches, yet; but are assured
of a cordial welcome in what
ever congregation they join; and
will also be valuable additions
to other phases of local com=-
munity life of Covington and New
ton County.
The Wesleyan Service Guild
of the First Methodist Church
will meet at the church on Octo
ber 5, at 8 p.m. The program

Kingdom Work. Today, it has
one of the few, trained and robed
