WILL AID IN
 THE MOVEMENT Baraca Class of First Bap- tist Church Join With
 Ministerial Body
FOR CHANGE OF HOURS
At POstOffice on Sunday to Permit Employees to Attend Services
 at the Churches.

The movement adopted by the Pine Bluff Ministerial Association at re- cent meeting i'll regard to the change of Sunday opening hours at the post office so as not to conflict With the morning service hours at the various churches, is meeting with approval by other religious bodies. At the meeting of the Ross Moore Baraea Class Sunday morning this class sanctioned the movement of the min- isters and will lend their moral sup port for the cause.
 It is a fact that the matter of changing the opening hours of the postoffice is merely a matter to be cons :dered by the clerks and the community in which the office is To- cated. It IS said that the postmas- ter general does not care to use his authority on the subject and will leave it to the clerks and the con- munNy. For this reason the min- lSIGTS WIFI ul<hhe ch 6lCII ClIolb Lo change the hours of the opening from 11:30 o'clock to some other conven- tent hour, which will not conflict with the morning services at the churches which 7as general thing are at II o'clock. This will enable ev cry clerk and employe of the postof- flee to attend church Sunday morn ing.
 The fact that the Baraca Class, one of the largest and strongest Sunday school classes in the city, has signi- fled it's intention of lending it's mor- al aid to the movement is signifi- cant that great porton of the gener- al public will be in favor of the when it s fully recognized and discussed.
