Editor Eagle:
Farmers are all smiles since
the fine rain which fell last week.
Everyone realizes that work has
begun, and seemingly thankful,
too, after having had such a long
rest occasioned by the dry sea-
son, After moving to this coun-
try from the East some time ago,
Mr. Robert Barken made the re-
mark—“I cannot understand why
the people here are so glad when
it rains.” But after witnessing
a long drouth he thoroughly un-
derstands the matter.

Baptist Meeting.
The Fifio Sunday meeting
ffhich was recently held with the
North Bennett church is said to
be the best for many years.
Probably there has been no bet-
ter in the history of our associ-
ation. The meeting was well at-
tended, considering the press of
farm work throughout the county,
it was the largest representation
I have ever seen at these meet-
ings, Brothren and sisters came
from extreme parts of the county
manifesting great interest pro-
foundly burdened for the Master’s
business.
The leading and most import-
ant feature of the meeting was
the power and influence of the
Holy Spirit, as men talked of God,
exorfced and prayed, many real-
ized the warm, filling and pos-
sessing power of our great loving
Heavenly Father. Unusual
liberty and power characterized
much of the preaching and
speaking. W. B. Everitt’s ad*
dress of the “Holy Spirit” and
D. I. Harralson’s address on
"Kingdom Authority” are to be
printed in folder form for dis-
tribution.
The church at North Bennett
did nobly in caringjor the meet-
ing. They made large prepara-
tions for the physical comfort of
all who would come to them, but
the most important was the read-
iness maderby prayer for an up-
lift and spirtual blessing through
the meeting. Anyone attended
the meeting felt that such prayer-
ful condition had prevailed even
though nothing had been said
about it.
Before adjournment the body
voted unanimously a resolution
opposing foot-ball in our Chris-
tian schools. Because of the.
coming revival season and0 also
because of the meeting of the as-
sociation which comes in August
the body voted no fifth Sunday
meeting untH October, at which
time the meeting is to convene
with the church at Mullin.
It is more and more evident
that these meetings are helpful.
They contain both information
and inspiration. It is one of the
best indications that a church is
living and breathing and grow-
ing to hear it call frequently
for these 'meetings, Blessings
will not fail those who $re
anxious to extend help and sym-
pathy to others. One more thing
deserves mention. The mission
ary was paid up in full, and
quite a nice sum is in the treas
ury with which to begin another
quarter. Were you represented
in the good work? It is joyful
to line up.
Yours in Christian bond,
