“We are indeed fortunate in se-
curing Mr. Gill’s acceptance to
appear on our Fort Worth conven-
tion program,” said Sawtelle-
“since his activities in connection
with the oil industry’s supply and
price studies make him one of the
industry’s best informed men on
that subject-”
Sawtelle stated that the conven-
tion program is rapidly being com-
pleted and will include the most
impressive array of nationally
prominent speakers ever to appear
on the Texas Association program.
He stated also that Fort Worth ho-
tel reservations already received
indicate an unusually large at-
tendance this year and urged Tex-
as oilmen to make their train and
hotel reservations well in advance
of the meeting dates, which are
Wednesday and. Thursday, Octo-

Mrs- W. S. White, chairman of
the circle, called the meeting to
order and presided over the busi-
ness session. She read the 123
Psalm to open the program and
gave a short devotional. A very
interesting talk on “Scarritt Col-

Athletic Coach, entertained the
members of the Lions club today
noon with a highly entertaining
pre-view of the 1943 edition of the
Ennis High Lions football team
and gave the line-up with a sketch
from each player. After discussing
the players Mr. Gardner explained
a few of the new plays this year
with the use of the blackboard.
Mr. Gardner, who was presented
by Homer McElroy, said that due
to the gas shortage this year the
district officials had agreed not
to permit any scouting.
It was a most interesting address
and Friday’s game here with Lan-
caster and Ennis participating is
expected to attract a large crowd.
Dr- G. Alfred Brown, president
of the club, introduced four new
members, A. E. Ramsey, Phil Todd,
Rush Hickman and W- D. Colvin.
Dr. Brown announced that today’s
meeting officially inaugurated a
one hundred percent attendance
contest-and those who attend every
meeting from now until June, 1944-
will be given a special attendance
award. Dr- Brown explained those
who were unable to attend a reg-
ular meeting might make up their
attendance by going to Waxa-
hachie on Tuesday, their regular
meeting day cr if they are ill by
notifying the club and three mem-
bers of the club will make a visit
which will count as attending-

Presbyterian church at the recent
meeting of the assembly. Two hun-
dred thousand women in 7,380 cir-
cles, 54 per cent in definite work
contributed $1,500,000 to church

The Business Women’s Circle of
the First Presbyterian church, re-
sumed their regular meetings,
Monday night, with Mrs- Ethel
Fisher, North Clay St, as hostess-
The devotional given by Mrs.

early witnessing of the early
church in Jerusalem.
Arrangements relative to enter-
taining the Dallas Presbytery took
up the time given to business dis-
cussions led by the chairman, Mrs-
Roy Kirkpatrick and Mrs. J. R.

iliary.
