MONTHLY MEETING, ILA W M S

Mrs. Howard MrCannon. The meet
ing opened by singing, “0, Zi n
Haste,” after the Sdripture les-on
from Second Timothy, Airs. Gip
Burroughs led in prayer.
The subject for study was the
Southern Br ptist Theological Semi
nary. Different members traced
the growth of the Seminary from a
very small beginning to the re.cat
time. We learned that it is now
the ’arge t The; ofca’ sim’naty
America Tt has outgrown the old
bhildings and Is badly in need of a
few million dollars with which to
erect new buildings.
After sinning, “We’v > a Story to
Tell to the Nations,” and prayer by
Miss Maude Gurley business was
taken up.
It was decided to meet twice a
month for a while in order to com
plete the study course. The society
voted to give Miss Gladys Williams
a linen shower at the next meeting.
It was also decided to give a shower
to the pastor on next preaching day.
It was reported that good progress
is being made in securing flunds for
painting the church.
The h°stess served a delicious sal
ad cour.c; twenty-two ladies wero
present.

Uncle John
They’re still a-slashin’ at
taxes, as they promised the
folks they would, several months
afore the election, when candi
dates thought they should; I
reckon they went an’ slashed
’em as the papers declare they
did, but I was a small exception,
so mine was an upward skid.
So fur as 1 have observed ’em,
the taxes was never so high—
tut the papers sez they are low
er—and the newspapers never
lie. Yes, they’re goin’ to keep
on siashin’ with some mighty
furious blows—the Daily Hokus
has said so, and the Daily
knows! Of course it takes con
siderable change to satisfy
Government needs, like salary
hikes and benzine cars, and the
mailin’ of punkin seed3. And
it takes a right smart boodle
fer the cabinet’s small affairs,
the little social endeavors of the
glorified millionaires. The elec
tion is done passed over and the
cost of livin' is high—ard we
reckon they’ll slash the tax
some more—in the sweet by and
by!
