Is This the Way
We Feel About It?
Annouiicenwnt was made through
llie columns of tin* lteeord more .him
•i month ago and at the earnest nollci
t.itinn of a great number of officials,
fathers and mothers and others, that
llie public roadway across the school
campus of the Conyers high school
would he closed to such traffic in the
future as a protection for our little
tuis. hoys and girls who are compelled
to use this roadway as an entrance
and exit in their daily school duties.
We now appeal to our Hon. Mayor and
Aldermen to take the necessary ac
t (in, publishing same during the mouth
of April and rope it off on May Ist.
>.ow, if you gentlemen do not at least
make an effort to afford rtiis very
necessary protection to the children of
Conyers, you are very likely in line to
witness a great catastrofe —something
that could not he excused as resulting
trom an oversight, because this is the
second time that our attention has
keen called to the matter by the par
ents of Conyers. If our Hon. Mayor
and hoard of Aldermen will make an
effort to remedy this state of affairs
and fail, then the burden of responsi
-1 ilit.v will rest upon other shoulders,
whose names we will he glad to pub
lish for identification, should there he
objectors to the restriction of traffic
rpon and through these grounds.
When the Methodists
and Baptists Unite
Th< re is inspiration in numbers and
economy in consolidation. The Bap
tists joined the Methodist Sunday
school for the day. last Sunday, and it
was a great occasion —unfortunate
that it occurs so seldom —with 1*95
present, by far the largest congrega
tion we have had in Conyers this year.
Judge Irwin had even fifty men in his
(lass, a regular field day for him and
his message fell upon attentive ears
and receptive hearts of botli Method
ist and Baptist alike. We were sitting
t iglit between two Methodists, Waldo
Bowen and Gus McCalla, hut felt just
as happy as if we'd been between Mr.
Holman and Mr. Huff, two Baptists.
The Gospel is the same thing wher
ever preached and by whomsoever
preached. We had lot rather be a
Christian than a Methodist or Bap
tist dogmatist, whatever that is.
To begin the service, a junior choir
of ill boys and 15 girls, just tots, rang
ing from five years of age to ten or
twelve —can you imagine boys out
numbering the girls in a choir —ren-
dering a splendid musical program un
der the direction of Miss Allie Joe
Sigman, pianist. And by the way, Miss
Sigman is teacher of a class of fifteen
or twenty young ladies, that are beau
tiful to behold. Speaking of teachers,
we notice most lady teachers sit down
while teaching a class —setting down
on the job as it were—and we don’t
like tlie idea a little bit. The Rev.
Tom Marston was up in the loft some
where teaching a class of girls and we
mean he was teaching that class —re-
minded us of other days when we dis
turbed every other class with our over
flow of enthusiasm —in fact we can’t
teach until we begin to over-flow. Su
perintendent Vaughn was so happy ov
er the great congregation that was
present, he even asked us to lead the
music, and when we lead the music
we disturb the singers somewhat like
me and Tom disturbs other classes
when we teach.
Mr. Opher Cooper rendered a solo
that was very effective and greatly
appreciated. He and Fred Davis have
the only natural tenro voices we know
of in Ibis section and they are both ex
ceptionally good. Pastor Jordan told
a splendid story, beginning with "once
upon a time” that should make us all
think when “wishing” for something,
lest we be greedy. An offering was
taken up for the flood sufferers that
will be turned over to the Red Cross
for relief work. Mrs. Bob Elliott an
nounced a special Easter program for
next Sunday inclining at [Sunday
school. Baptist Superintendent Still
announced an Easter egg hunt for
next Saturday afternoon. School Su
perintendent Gilbert announced a cele
bration at the school auditorium Fri
day night, at which time the recently
purchased roller curtain will be rolled
up ami down for the amusement of
all who may desire such entertain
ment and for those who don't specially
like roller curtain entertainment, he
has arranged for several stunts by
the Woodmen of the World, the Ma
sons and by the various churches. If
you are a Woodman, Mason or church
member you will be admitted free and
if you don't belong to some of these
organizations just keep your hat on
for identification.
’llie Baptist church is still closed,
not in the hands of a receiver, but
undergoing repairs and when its doors
ar< thrown open next Sunday, it will
be like Easter inside, for those walls
will sparkle as never Idfore. Pastor
ltrake preached at Lithonia Sunday
morning and evening for Pastor Wag
