EASTER SERVICE AT METHO
DIST CHURCH A SUCCESS
The members of the Comer Meth
odist -Sunday School presented “The
King Called Jesus,” an Easier Pa
geant on Sunday evening April 12th.
.. The attendance was so large that
every available seat was taken and
others had to stand for lack of room
lit was a moot beautiful, sacred ad
impressive service. Th e in:'d n
-with the week of tie
: Passover ard of the Resurrecti n of
[Jesus were portrayed in such a rr...n
--1 ner as to make them more c early
impressed than ever before. Fo ty
.members of tl>e Sunday School, each
! suited to his part, were required to
'represent the various chararte- .
| and their costumes w< re el ah r t
| and well chosen in keeping \v th
| those worn by Bible ■ r at
the time of the death m l T e r • c
. tion of Jesus. To mention the good
work of all the characters would be
I impossible, but each and eve- y one
j did well his or her part which made
; the play a success. The church was
: beautifully decorated with shrub
|bery, palms and Easter liliies to rep
| resent one of those picturesque gar
dens in Jerusalem.
j The last scene was delightfully
impressive. While the Annunciator
who was dressed in a robe of white,
| told the story of the srprea<J of the
i Gospel message since the resurrec
j tion, nineteen young women dressed
I in flowing robes of dark blue, repre
senting nineteen centuries, bearing
] lighted candles, marched down the'
1 aisle of the church. One repre
! senting the twentieth century cr
| Easter followed carrying not only a
lighted candle but also an armful of
Easter liliies. As these took their
places on the platform, the garden
1 forming a lovely background, the
j lights were dimmed bringing out the
j beauty of the lighted candles. While
' standing with lighted candies in hand
they sang the closing song, “What"
Will You Do With Jesus.”
The benediction was then pro
nounced by the Pastor.
GIRLS’ AUXILIARY
The Girls Auxiliary of the Comer
Baptist church met with Miss Mabel
Burton, April 11th at 3:30 o’clock.
Avery interesting program was ren
dered by Group 2 with Miss Elizabeth
Wood as Captain.
After the program came the social
hour. We were given puzzles to
solve. In the contests that followed
Miss Lillian Sims and Eleanor Thomp
son were the prize winners.
After th : s we went to the dining
room which was beautifully decorat
ed in the Easter colors, yellow and
white. A srlad course was served.
Those enjoying the hospitality were
Misses Evelyn, Marion and Dare
White, Larie and Roberta Hix, Eliz
abeth Woods. Kathleen Benton; Mrs.
T. C. Davison, leader; Misses Floyd
Fitzpatrick of Ila, Martha Carmich
ael, Eleanor Thompson, Clara Mae
Branon, Kathryne Williams, Mabel
and Oneita Burton.
The next meeting will be at the

The first of all flim-flam
merchant’s jokes, is to wink at
the crowd, an’ cail it
Of course we remember an
earlier Gay, when “folks” was
the proper word to say—when
human kinship was everj
wherc, and, most of opr denlin’s
was on the square—Away back
yander where memory dims,
when “folks” and friendship”
was synonyms; When hearts
was as staunch as the towerin’
oaks, O, them was the days
when folks was folks.
But, he re of late, it occurs to
me, that “folks” aint the term
that it used to be—l can’t Ag
ger out but one result it’s
vulgar an’ coarse when it aint
insult! The shell-game fakir
and 3-card sport—and the tin
horn gambler are all of a sort,
—You can look in their eye, an’
detect the hoax, as they niount
their goods-box an’ call ye
“folks.” The snide promotor is
fair to see, but he can’t put
nothin’ acrost on .e—He may
vaprer an’ spiel till the day he
croass—but the stuff’s all off,
wheq he calls me “folks.”
