THE BAPTIST CHURCH

THE BAPTIST CHURCH
 At the roll call of the church on Sun day, June Is, the opening exercises were conducted as usual. Short ad- dresses followed by S. D. Powell, Rev R, H. Sherman and Rev F. P. Bra man. The situation was briefly re- viewed from the standpoint of the present, and the outlook for the future was considered as being hopeful to a degree that but short time since would have seemed impossible. Next in order came the calling of the roll, which duty was performed by Dea Charles s. Everette. Each member responded to his or her name by a scriptuEal quotation or some item of personal experience or both. More than 20 letters were received from members who were unable to be pres ent. Although each of these letters were extremely interesting, the one which claimed the most attention was that of Mrs Deborah Silliman, who has reached the great age of l0l years, and is the only constituent member of the church left. There were about 8 names on the church record from whom no response came. Last but not least the church was prettily decorated with blooming shrubs and garden flowers, besides ferns and floweru upf the fields and gleps. All in attendance felt that it had been "Good to be there."
 Rev R. H. Sherman and father start ed on Monday, June IT, to visit rela- tives in the towns of Lebanon and Norwick, the former place being the home of the elder gentleman as well as the childhood home of Pastor Sher- man. MT Sherman, ST., has been an invalid for some time. and the pastor is much in need of rest. They expect to return in about 10 days.

A New Theatrical Circuit.

Managers of theaters in Texas, Ari-
zona and New Mexico have just per-
fected an organization designed for pro
lection from low-grade theatrical COM
panies. For many years the southwest
country has been considered the legtl.
mate prey of the barn. -storming com
panies, which could not exist in the
north and east.
A meeting of score of managers will
be held at Phoenix or Ell Paso for the
early completion of arrangements. SAM
ia Fe is included in the circuit.
Managers of the best shows which
will not venture to Phoenix without a
substantial guarantee, give as an ex-
cuse for missing many small cities and
towns in the southwest the fact that t
is recognized as unprofitable for thaat-
rical companies, the route in past years
earning the reputation of the "heli
path" Many fairly good companies
have stranded along the course, aud
members of stock companies by the
score point to Phoenix and similar
towns of the "hell path" as the places
from which they had to walk.
