PARIS & MT. PLEASANT
TO CHANGE SCHEDULE
Arrangements are being made by
the Paris & Mt. Pleasunt Railway to
change the schedule of the motor car
at an early date in order that con-
nections for the mail can be made to
conform with the Cotton Belt schedule
and also make good connections at
Pans. The change, which will be an-
nounced in about a week, will proba-
bly involve a reversal of the present
arrangement and will mean that the
motor car will leave Paris early in
the morning and return in the after-
noon.
MAKING IT A USEFUL SERVANT
As a Christmas gift to Southern
Baptists, 111-. Rockefeller presented
half a million dollars to the Relief
and Annuity Board of the Southern
Baptist Convention. The gift was
made unconditi naily, though Mr.
Rockefeller expressed the hope that
the board would be able to raise an
equal amount through individuals
and churches of the Southern Baptist
Convention.
It isn’t Mr. Rockefeller’s first gift
t,o the board. Previously he had
given half a million dollars, thus
bringing the total of his donations to
the endowment fun to one million
dollars.
It is a worthy cause to which Mr.
Rockefeller contributed. Income from
the fund, which has now reached the
sum of approximately $3,750,000, is
paid to superannuated ministers and
missionaries and their widows and
dependent. Those who have devel-
oped the Baptist Church in the South
United States Senator W. E. Brock
of Tennessee, says:
“That the unrest of the world to-

“A moral risk is anyone of character, who has ambition,
plus prospects of bettering his condition, who is con-
scious of his obligations and is seeking a backer who be-
lieves in the fundamental honesty ot' humanity.”

day is largely due to the fact
there are not enough people
‘stop to think.’
I have great faith in the American
people and believe if they would stop
to think they would not only be more (
useful to the country at large, but:
would bring happiness to the masses i
and comfort and consolation to many!
