MONTHLY MEETING, ILA W M S The Woman’s Missionary sciicty of the Ila Baptist rhurrh met Mo May afternoon, May 11, at the home of 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. ][kemM 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.

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! N number
