I ganized a few years ago, are
doing a good business here.

edge of town. They have built
about twelve or fourteen shan
ties for their help to live in and
the payroll of this concern will
average something like S3OO per

New Baptist Church
Destroyed by Fire
On Sunday night at a rather
late hour, fire completely de
stroyed the handsome new
j Baptist church at Pembroke.
Services had been held in the
church Lor the B. Y. P. U. some .
three or four hours before, and
it is supposed that a faulty flew
of some kind was responsible
for the origin of the blaze.
When the fire was discovered
the building was a light blaze
and all hope of saving either
1 the building or the furniture
(was futile.
Citizens rushed to the scene]
from the town and the sur
| rounding country, but all they I
5 could do was to. stand and see
the flames gut one of the most
magnificent church buildings in!
Southeast Georgia.
The building had recently j
been completed and paid for at
a cost of about $8,000.00, but
I unfortunately there had been
j no insurance taken out on it.
A meeting of those interested ।
| was held in the Masonic Temple
jon Monday night when plans I.
(were put on foot to rebuild the;
I church.
This fire strikes the heaviest
! blow to Pembroke that could be j
j imagined. These people have j
| worked hard and faithful to'
I complete a suitable church edi-l
face, vh-\*n would have done
credit to towns and congrega-i
tions of much larger size, and,
to see their hopes blasted in the!
'nd -iglit to behold.
The people of Pembroke and
NUMBER 50
surrounding country will rally
to the fund for the rebuilding
of this magnificent church edi
fice.

eggs a day. He has the houses
in which he keeps his chickens
well built and fixed for the
business.
He has just recently added
several new sections to his in
cubator and can now hatch
2,400 eggs at one time. The in-
Icubator is of the latest type, the
!heat being governed automati
cally. It also has an automatic
attachment for turning the
I eggs.
Mr. Lanier is adding to his
|chickens from time to time and
jis still building new buildings
|to house them in. He has sev
jeral hundred dollars invested
jin equipment.
There are several other peo- 1
Ibusiness but he has gone into it
nore extensively.
