The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1912-11-29
Church Social.

: Soon the spacious rooms were crowd
ed and the meeting called to order by
the president, Mrs. w. W. Adams. In
vocation by Mrs. w. L. White. That
eliminating love chapter Cor. IL, was
read by Mrs G. M. Miles. Saint Paul
had enumerated all the gifts and graces
God bestows on the christian when in
sublime eloquence he sums it all up In
that immortal sentence, And the great
est of these is love. .
The following program was beauti-
fully rendered and thoroughly enjoyed:
Song-Miss Margaret Watson.
Reading117Miss My Dahnke.
songzziss Mary Hill Mosier.
Duets Dietzel and Elizabeth
Alexander.
Reading-Louise Thompson.
Duett-Misses Tisdale and Adams.
Miss Margaret Watson has marvel
Gus voice and to hear her is treat.
Miss Mary Dahnke's reading was gem.
1t very laughably illustrated our gno-
rance of the Bible. 1t is far more Gull
pable to be ignorant of Moses, Jacob,
Joseph, etc., than George Washington.
Washington is, of course, our hero, our
Immaculate patriot, but from the Bible
we get our moral and christian civiliza-
ton. Not only ours but all people in
all lands. We have all heard Of that
wise Congressman who, in eulogizing
Daniel Webster, called him the author
of the dictionary, when bis colleague
whispered No, no, it was Noah!"
He turned Indignantly; saying, Noah
didn't: he built the ark " This is
equaled by the learned reply OF the
divinity student when asked, who
was the first King of Israel, " replied,
"Saul, otherwise called Paul. " This
is land of Sunday schools and Bibles.
Without Bible influence these lovely
socials would be an impossibility and
the sweet, warm, tender regard we cher
ish for one another is christian culture
taught by the Bible.
Miss Mary Hill Mosier's sweet little
song was very much enjoyed.
Two little Japanese maidens came
; tripping in, Pomona Detzel and Eliza
beth Alexander, and gave us pretty
song and piano duet They were
pupils of Miss Mona Jones and showed
! careful training. Louise Thompson
then gave us sweet little reading. The
program closed with beautiful duet
, by our popular young entertainers
\ Misses Tisdale and Adams.
Thanks to these young people fol
giving us their time and talent. 1t il
true culture to do those things tina
6 make others better and happier, not il
| a spirit of ostentation but as one who
loves to confer favor,
E The collection amounted to mort
than sixty dollars.
Closing prayer by Mrs. Adams.
Unanimous vote of thanks was ten
dered Mrs. Alexander and that unri
vailed committee of arrangements, Mes

l.. Mosier, T. r. Massey.
We mention last but not least thu
lovely refreshments which we all en-
loved and the floral decorations which
delighted our eyes.
A very lovely close to a very Lowell!
week was the reception last Saturda!

Methodist Churches of Union City b.
Mrs. Henry Head at her elegant coun
try residence, The Beeches.
A large number from both churche
availed themselves of this opportunit.
to partake of the genuine Southern
hospitality of Mr.. and Mrs. Head
The view is exceedingly pleasing as yot
sit in the reception hall. Looking
through the glass doors you see tn
forest of graceful beech trees and thu
waters of a diminutive lake sparkling
in the sun and the cut of the glas
causes the lake seemingly to be multi
piled and you see not one but several
and this enchantment was within a
without, for every face reflected double
Joy and happiness. 1t could not b.
otherwise, for nothing had been omitted
that could contribute to our pleasure
In the receiving line with our gra
cious hostess, Mrs. Head, we noted Mrs
Eader, Mrs. w. H. Swiggart, Mrs. G.
