We were glad to have Bro-
Leffel Reagan and wife of Sul-
phur Springs with us at church
Sunday. Brother Leffel is a fine
young preacher whom we are
very proud of.
Mr. and Mrs. Willie Miller and
sons of Macon and Mrs. J. L.
Baldwin and Mrs. M. C. Hucka
by of Yale spent Sunday at Rev
W. B. Martin's. The latter stay-
ed for a week's visit.
We failed to make mention
last week of W. P. Kelly return-
ing home from a visit with re-
latives in San Antonio.
There was a Hallowe'en par-
ty at Fred Johnson's Thurs-
day night. A good crowd was
present and all enjoyed them-
selves very much. Funds were
raised to pay on the piano at
the church. We failed to learn
the amount that was realized.
All services were well attend-
ed Sunday. Brother Hubbard de
livered three very interesting
sermons. Singing was fine so
was the Epworth League.
The young people and a unm-
ber of the old people enojyed a
Hallowe'en party at the home of
Mr. and Mrs. G. C. Whittle's
(or the writer's) last Friday
night. An extra large crowd
was present, coming from all
aioining communities. Black
cats, spooks and witches held
full sway throughout the party.
The guests were met as they
arrived by three very ghosty
looking spooks, who carried the
guests to the back way and put
them through a vat. Lots of fun
was had in this. All kinds of
games were played, which all
se<*ned to enjoy to the fullest
extent. All expressed themsel-
ves as having spent a very en-
joyable evening.
XiSTEN—the district sing-
ing convention will meet at this
place next Sunday afternoon.
Everybody invited, especially
the singers.
Being a little short of soap
th-s week, I am going to give
you a little poem, entitled.
"Since We Got Radio," by R. D.
Gait, which appeared in Yeoman
Shiflid some three weeks ago:
It's easy now to get the boys
To stay at home at night.
Ths old routine has passed
away.
There's no more fussing, no
more fight.
Pa doesn't have to "argue-fy"
Nor let iiis temper go.
A mighty clvi..ge has come to
pass
Since we got radio.
Ill ore's no more loafing on the
job
When m iking time arrives
Hi chores bring forth no gro-
ans, no sighs,
r<o morbid talk of misspent
lives.
Tli * work gets on at lively rate,
Turned faces hold a glow;
Urondcasting starts at 8 o'clock
;>inre we got radio
Vl .ire's no more asking for the
car,
No squabbles over gas;
N« falk of quitting—leaving
home,
No impudence called "sass
THerc's no more climbing on
the stairs
At 3 a. m. or so;
Th; boys stay at home and get
their sleep
Since we got radio.
There's uo more twlight silence
aow,
With Pa and Ma alone;
Tin boys bring in their girls to
4tear
Hie latest jazz, and moan.
Th ire's laughter where there
otK6 was ire;
Th ore's joy where then* was
And Pa has learned to smile
again
Since we got radio.
There's no more quizzing
"where you been?"
Which leads to sullenness;
Few arguments arise when
hearts
Are full of happiness.
The old farmhouse is not the
place
It was a year ago;
A different spirit dominates
Since we got radio.—Dud.
WEBSTER
He who seldom thinks of Hea
veil, is not likely to get there;
the only way to hit the mark
is to keep the eye fixed on it

FAULTY NUTRITION
Many of the ailments of urmvn
people may he traced to faulty
nutrition. Well-fed children or
adults withstand weakness better
than those who are indifferently
nourished.
Scott's Emulsion
Supplies the weakened child or
adult with food-factors that
other foods often fail to furnish
in needful volume.
Not a great deal of Scott's
Emulsion is needed—but a little
regularly often means re-
stored vigor and strength
to those who are rundown
itality or who arc weak.
