The members of the Y. p. S. f. of
different churches are returning to
town one by one and the work is be-
ginning to revive. Northumberland
Presbyterian Church Society met
last night with better attendance
than it has had for several weeks.
And although we have lost num-
Der of our best workers, among
whom are Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Ham,
bright who have moved to Georgia,
the Society is still prospecting. The
library donated and attended to by
the GOOD Literature Committee
of this Society is quite an addition
to and an aidT~to the success Of this
Soci ty. This library is much APP
preciated by the young people and
although the supply of books is
somewhat limited they hope by do
nation and other means to soon
have.their.li brary-case full of choice
literature. This Society has taken
considerable interest in Mission
Sabbath SchOOl.near the corner of
Georgia and Hardee ST., indeed this
school has been9.supplied with sew
eral teachers from this Society, and
they intend to do still more in the
way of personal and financial aid.
The subject "HerOic Christians F"
was ably treated by our best speak
ers. Mr.. j. B. Jones, the president,
led the"..meeting last night in alb
sence of the appointed leader, Mr..
Alb. Shetterly. There were very
few pauses, one speaker following
the other promptly. The speaking
interspersed with verse or two of
song.
Mr.. A. X. Young, chairman Of.the
" Music Committee is an earnest
worker and is always provided with
selection of appropriate songs for
every meeting.
Near the close of the meeting Mr..
CharlieiMeans, chairman of" DevO
tional Committee" announced that
the next meeting, Conservation
service will be conducted by the
Devotional Committee. He then
warned the young ladies that, al
though they rad not often led the
meeting, he was going to give them
an opportunity TO show whether or
no they were heroic Christians, as
he would henceforth often appoint
young ladies to lead.
Several visitors were present
some from the Pilgrim Congrega.
tional Church and some from the
Clinch Street Epworth League
The President dismissed the meet,
ing after requesting all to stay for &
fifteen minute social or handshak
ing meeting.
The Fourth Presbyterian Society
still conducts the Sunday evening
services in absence of their pastor
They make the meetings very inter
esting to botl young and old ant
have good attendance.
They give social next Thursday
night at the house of one of theil
members, and it is reported thai
their socials are something wortl
attending.
We were present not long ago a
a c. E. meeting of the Contra
Presbyterian Church. They hole
their meetings ON Wednesday even
ings after prayer-meeting, but whei
they move into their new churcl
will hold them Sunday evenings
Miss Katie McSpadden led TIT
meeting. One item that she intro
duced added much to the interest o
the meeting, it was selecting tw,
questions on the subject as given il
the Golden Rule and asked some
one to speak on each question. B.
careful selection of questions ant
giving those questions ID the RICH
person a very interesting debat
may be brought about.
