Revival Opens Here
Next Sunday, the 22
REV. WOODLE WILL BE
HERE F ROM LYONS
A revival will begin at the
Pembroke Baptist Church Sun
day, April 22, and will continue
for ten days or more. Services
will be held twice daily. These
services will be under the charge
of Rev. A. D. Woodie of Lyons,
and it is hoped that large crowds
will be present at these meetings.
Rev. Woodie needs little intro
duction to the people of Pem
broke, he being one of the most
popular men that has ever cocu
pied the local pulpit, and his
teachings are greatly enjoyed by
the members of his congregation.
ROAD WORK
The county road scraper has
been at work on the road from
Groveland to Ellabelle during
the past week. This is of great
benefit, considering the condition
that this road has been in for
some time.
MISSIONARY RALLY HELD
A missionary rally was held at
the Pembroke Baptist Church by
the ladies of the Missionary So
ciety and visiting teachers. A
very profitable and enjoyable
day was spent and a bountiful
dinner being spread under the
trees of the church yard.

New School Building
Greatly Needed Now
NECESSARY TO TAKE CARE
OF INCREASING NUMBER
OF CHILDREN
Bryan county will have to
move in order to keep up with
the other counties of the State in
regard to education. Under the
new consolidation system, which
is proven to be the best yet in
augurated, the present school
buildings are proving to be inad
equate to take care of the in
creased number of children, and
the only way that this can be
overcome, is by erecting new
buildings. We note that the
other cities are not holding self
ishly back and failing to do what
they should, but are going ahead,
advancing steadily on their edu
cational programs, and making a
great effort to arm their children
with tools' to fight with, other
> than- their strong backs.
Now we come to our own city,
what are we going to do about
. it? Here, we have more chil
dren than we can efficiently take
care of this year, and what
about next. We surely can’t tax
our old building with a larger
' patronage. It just won’t hold
them.
This district needs a new
building. There is no doubt in
the world about that, and the
way to get what we want is to
go after it in the right way.
Let’s get down to work, and see
what can be done about this
needful matter, and when it
comes time to say, “we will or we
won’t” put your shoulder to the
wheel, and give a good push to
the front.
Onward with our school pro
gram. Big and better schools for
our children.
TOWN TEAM DOWNED BY
SCHOOL BOYS
A snappy baseball game was
fought on the local diamond on
Wednesday afternoon, when Joe

Smith’s High School boys, the
latter only nosing out in the last
inning victors, to the score of 8
to 7.
Will Smith did the mound
work for the town boys, while
“Bub” Clanton, the Hi’s left
hand twirler, alleyed the apple,
showing good stuff for a new
pitcher. Games will be staged
every Wednesday afternoon be
tween these two teams, and all
are invited to turn out and see
will be there when you look over
some real stuff. We know you
