METHODISTS OBSERVE
ANNUAL HOME COMING
SUNDAY, JULY 17
Last Sunday was the annual
Home Coming Day at the First
Methodist church in observance of
32 years of Methodism in Teague.
Included in the guest list were
pastors, layipen and former mem-
bers from all parts of the State,
who took advantage of the oppor-
tunity to return to the old scenes
to enjoy a day with former asso-
ciates and friends.
During these 82 years since the
church was organized there have
been about fiteen pastors to serve
it at various times. Rev. R. W.
Adams* among the early pastors,
and the actual buidder of the ed-
fice, preached at the 11:00 o’clock
hour. During the course of the
sermon the pastor gave a brief
history of the church from the
time of its organization up to the
present time. Rev. A. T. Walker,
the-second pastor to serve the
church, preached in the evening
hour.
Both ministers are greatly be-
loved by the membership and by
all who knew them in their active
days here. It was indeed a great
pleasure to the attendants at the
event to have them present and
hear them preach.
A basket lunch was served at
the noon hour in the educational
building. This included the tra-
ditional Methodist favorite—fried
chicken—with all the trimmin’s,
in addition to a plentiful supply
of cakes and pies.
The church was filled to over-
flowing at both morning and
evening periods.

FOUR SQUARE SINGERS
The Four Square Singers met
with the Teague class last Sunday
evening for another enjoyable
song service. ..We had visiting
singers from Mexia, Shiloh, and
Groesbeck. We wish to thank
each of these visiting singers,
and invite them back any time
they can come.. Of course we
had lots of good singers from the
rest of the county Four Square
Classes.
We appreciate very much the
co-operation which is being given
in the Four Square Singing and
we realize that without it our
singings would be a failure. So
let’s everyone keep the good work
up and strive to make every meet-
ing a better one than the last
one.
Next Sunday all of the Four
Square Singers will meet at
Donie for a song service, every-
one is invited. If you want to
hear some real good singing, be
there.
Reporter.
is serving out the unexpired term
of the late Judge J. A. Stanford
as Associate Justice, Court of
ChylrrAppeals, 10th District, and
is now asking for a first elective
term. He lived in Navarro coun-
ty, ^which is one of the counties
of this district, until he became
connected with this court in 1937.
He is well qualified by tempera-
ment, education and experience to
perform the duties of this office
efficiently and fairly, as is shown
by his life and work.
During his first three months
with the court he wrote the opin-
ions in eight different cases, giv-
ing him a commencement average
of about three opinions per
month, and same are officially
reported in the following volumes
and pages thereof of the South-
western Reporter, 2sd Series:
105 SW 354;. 105 SW 731; 106
SW 822; 107 SW 426; 108 SW
230; 108 SW 954; 109 SW 1003;
110 SW 241, and any lawyer and
any judge in any of the counties
can show you these opinions and
you can read them for your own
information. His opponent wrote
twelve opinions during his six
months and six days as a member
of this court, giving him an aver-
age of less than two opinions per
month. After more than nine
years’ experience in the court, of
the last ten opinions written by
his opponent, thirty per cent were
set aside. None, of the opinions
of Ballard George have been re-
versed, set aside or modified.
The opponent of Ballard
George served one year, six
months and four days as a mem-
ber of this court by appointment,
was elected thereto twice and de-
feated when he fan for a third
elective term, six years ago. He
is now making his fourth race
for this office.
Judge Ballard George has art-
fully examined the records and
briefs in each case passed on by
this court since he has been with
it, and the docket of this court is
in good shape, as shown by the
fact that the Supreme Court has
within the passed year transferred
to it from another Court of Civil
Appeals forty cases.
In order for Judge Ballard
Georgevto perform his duties with
the Court of Civil Appeals, it was
necessary that he give up a suc-
cessful law practice in Corsicana
and move his family to Waco.
Wouldn’t it be fair, under the cir-
cumstances, to give him a -first
elective term? He will appreciate
your support and active support
in the coming election.
