Junior R. A.'s
The R. A.'s of The First Bap-
tist Church met Monday, Novem-
ber 19.
The meeting opened by singing
their Hymn, "The Kings Busi-
ness," followed in prayer by Dan-
ny Elkins. The roll was called and
minutes read. The group was di-
vided and now we have the Inter-
mediate and Juniors. The follow-
ing officers were elected for thq
Junior Ambassador-in-Chief, Billy
Mays; Assistant Ambassador, Jim
mie Nichols; Chapter Recorder,
Bobby Teel; Treasurer and Song
Leader, Jay Sterling Clements;
Custodian, Bobby Dodd; Care Tak-
er, Billy Dodd; Reporter, Robert
Clements.
There were 21 Juniors and 11
Intermediates present for the or-
ganization.
Thursday Study Club
The Thursday Study club met
November 14 with Mrs. J. E. King
During a brief business meeting
Mrs. Fred Flanagan reported that
she and Mrs. Calvin Dickinson had
attended a Third District Execu-
tive Conference of Federated clubs
in Marshall, November 13. Much
helpful information was brought
to the club in the report.
Mrs. Roy Davis introduced the
guest speaker for the afternoon,
Captain J. O. Woodman, who serv-
ed with the 5th Army in Italy and
was a civil affairs officer in the j
Allied Military Government. As I
the Italian Provinces were liberat-l
ed he had the responsibility of
checking and helping to supply
food for the war-torn cities over
a vast area. Ry the use of a map
and markers he indicated the plac-
es he had worked and the de-! pressing what clothes we can at
plorable conditions found. "The
food and fuel situation is still
very serious in Italy, he stated,
and probably will remain so be-
cause of the lack of unity and a
strong centralized government
which is the greatest need of the
nation." In the latter part of Cap-
tain Woodman's speech he touch-
ed on some of the lighter and
more amusing impressions. He
found the Italians likable, often
capable, and always puzzling. "If
rich, one should certainly live in
Italy to enjoy the luxurious life
in various summer and winter re-
sorts." Club members appreciated
the sincere and accurate presenta-
tion of so many interesting facts.
Quite a remarkable collection of
home. Also correct padding for
ironing boards and making Bleeve
boards.
We were also shown many pret-
ty Christmas gifts made from
colorful old hats such as Billfolds
children purses, and numerous oth
er things.
Mrs. Long has added a nice
closet to her bedroom. In the clo-
set she fixed a compartment for
children enabling them to help
care for their own clothes.
