members of the Junior League and a
few of the Epworth Leaguers gave a
number of "sharp Shots" Missionary
Mosaics were given by members of the
Sunday School. Mrs. A. G. Weech, in
her usual happy and forcible style, ap
pealed 10 the 'pocket nerve" and it
was evident to all present that she was
no novice in that line. The coliec
ton was 50 95 making grand total for
the day of S54. Appropriate music
was introduced at intervals during the
exercises. The solos of DR.. Bechtel
and Rev. L. I. McDougle were much
enjoyed.
