The theme. "The Highways of

Interest st this particular time and
the hymns, devotional and various
topics, as well as special musical
numbers, carried unity and purport
in a mast excellent manner. Origi-
nal assignments on the procratn
were given, with one exception, and
are aa follows: Mrs. B. E. Henry

lowed by Mrs. E. R. Bane of the

spoke of "Roots of War” fy-d Mrs.
J. M. Hicks of the Pint Baptist

Stanley Jeffery, representative of
St John's Episcopal Chu-ch, and
Mrs. M. E. Lovelace of the Flrrt

cerning a “Peace Program of Mis-
sionary Organizations." .
A vocal duet, “Ferae. Perfect
Peace,” was rendered by Meedamcr
J. B. Denman and J. K. Wilkes

gan. all of the Central Methodim

gram was the reading df short para-
graphs concerning the influence at
war by twenty women of the group
to whom these passages had been
given at the beginning of the meet -
mg.
Mrs. Hal Cherry dismi ed with
prayer. The next fifth Mondu\
