CONFERENCE—
Early in the morning of Nov. 15
we wish to begin making our con
ference report. It will take a full
day to do it. Then, on the early
bus of Nov. 16, we will be headed
for Atlanta. If those who have
matters to report to the preacher
will do so at the earliest possible
moment, it will greatly facilitate
his work.

I went to Oak Hill last Sunday to

rained so much. Thanks a million

THANKS AGAIN—
Thanks again to my readers for
reading this column.
I had begun to wonder about con
tinuing it when the editor helped
me out by calling Brother R. W.
Bagley Rev. Bagley. Then, from
all reports, it seemed everybody
must be reading the column.
Today, Monday, I looked for Mar
nell Weems, but couldn’t find him.
I wanted him to go with me to eat t
dinner at Mrs. Bagley’s. Last week,
Brother Bagley took Mrs. Marnell
Weems and Mrs. Betts to Rome on
some church business and he “set
’em up to a nice restaurant dinner.”
Since I couldn’t find Marnell this
morning, Mrs. Betts went with me
to Mrs. Bagley’s and she gave us a
mighty good dinner. That good
lady isn’t going to let Brother Bob
get ahead of her.
So long, folks!
