Lyerly Group
Gives Bible
To Graduate
The Woman’s Society of
Christian Service of Lyerly
Methodist Church met for
their June meeting with
nine members present. An
interesting program was
presented on ‘‘The Christian
and the Culture.” Beginning
with a poem from Dag
Hammarskjold’s book, the
program went into a trial
with the judge, the defend
ant, and the prosecutor. The
judge concluded that faith
in Jesus Christ must mean
disciplined obedience to the
will of God as revealed by
Jesus. It must mean forget
ting oneself in love for one’s
neighbor. It must mean dally
dedication.
On Sunday morning, the
president of the W.S.C.S.,
Mrs. L. B. Whisenant, pre
sented Steve Peppers, the
only senior graduate from
the Lyerly church, with a
Who Is It?
Mrs. Virginia Red da y
Thompson, of Chicago,
would like to have all her
friends in Sisseton, S. D.,
know that she is alive and
well.
Relatives and friends
thought they had buried
Mrs. Thompson, 48, during a
funeral there May 3. But
Mrs. Thompson, a former
resident, claims she is not
buried in Lake Traverse
Presbyterian Cemetery.
Authorities said a body
identified as that of Mrs.
Thompson was received in
Sisseton early in May and
was dutifully interred.
Now, they don’t know who
was buried.
Bible while his mother, Mrs.
Martha Peppers, also a
W.S.C.S. member, looked on.
Steve is active in the
church, being an assistant
Sunday School teacher. He
plans to attend Jacksonville
State College this fall.
Riegel Shows
Decrease in
1967 Earnings
Riegel Textile Corpora
tion announced this week
that earnings for its third
fiscal quarter ending July 1,
1967, will probably be some
what below earnings of the
comparable quarter of the
1966 fiscal year. It is ex
pected, however, that earn
ings for the full fiscal year
ending September 30, 1967,
will be equal to or slightly
larger than earnings for the
1966 year.
The company is develop
ing and market testing a
line of flushable sanitary
products including sanitary
napkins. It is too early to
forecast the potential value
of these new products and
it will be some months be
fore meaningful results from
the market tests have been
obtained, the company said.
The effect on earnings of
this development is highly
problematical at this time.

On Visit to
Fla. Gardens
Mr. and Mrs. William C.
Worsham of Summerville
visited Sarasota’s Jungle
Gardens on June 26 while
vacationing on Florida’s
Lower West Coast.
They saw flamingos and
other rare and unusual wild
fowl from every continent,
which roam freely in these
world-famous gardens.
Also of interest in Sara
sota Jungle Gardens are
thousands of tropical plants,
many of which are beauti
fully colored, huge Royal
Palms bordering dense jun
gle trails, and brilliantly
colored macaws and cocka
toos, which pose with vis
itors for pictures.
