Among the Churches.
METHODIST CHURCH

Our church is doing well. but it ought to do better. We have two hundred and fifteen mem bers, we ought to have a great many more. We have one hun dred and thirty in Sunday School last Sunday. That is doing well, and we are glad to have so many but we ought to have not less than two hundred. We have received four or five members this year, we should have re- ceived many times that number. We have a beautiful church, and beautiful for situation, but we ought to keep it more attractive by beautifying the lawn with flowers and shrubs, and keeping the house adorned and pretty, so as to impress on the passing public that the Lords friends are not all dead.
 We are working now for a great revival to get many souls saved, and to add much to the life and activity of the church. We begin the special efforts of the meeting the third Sunday in May. Let us approach the time with singleness or heart, much prayer and great endeavor.
 The ladies are doing a great work in their Missionary Society The church and the world could not live without the elect women. They have always been the light of the world, and the salt of the earth.
 It seems that the choir of the church could not be any better than it is, but it is getting better all the time. They sing the melodies of God that is akin to the music of the angels.
 w. F. WALKER, pastor.

BAPTIST CHURCH NOTES

Sunday was a splendid day with us. We had one hundred and nineteen in Sunday school and then at the evening service there were seven that came out from the splendid audience and asked for membership in our church. Five of these will be baptized some time soon, the other two came by letter from other Baptist churches. It was indeed a joy to be in the House of the Lord on such a gracious day. This is the highest attend ance we have reached in our school, but we are confidently expecting to surpass that soon. We ought to have at least one hundred and twenty five Sunday. If we will try hard to have that that many, we can easily do it. As our Sunday school is growing in numbers we feel that it is also growing in efficiency. It will do any one good to be a member of our live school.
 Next Sunday there will be a special sermon for children, sub- ject Obedience to Parents. Bring the children to Sunday school and then stay with them for the preaching service. The evening subject will be The Christians S Cross. Come early and worship with us.

Any late Afternoon at Ninth and
Main, behind those great big bill
boards that break the monotony Of
green grass and the perspective as
well, may be heard these terms and
kindred speech from a score or more
of Town Boys.
They are just llmberlng up. It's
baseball, and the hero is in the box
it's always that way with the kid
nine. There is a climax every time
the ball Is thrown, every time the bat
Is swung-its nothing but climaxes
with the Town Boys. The heavy hit

runner and the best base stealer is al

and it's just one sensation after ths

They are out there letting off some
of the steam which accumulated last

muscles and expanding their lungs

gardens just simply gotta wait, and
there amt gona be no hoein' or
nothin like that as long until the
teams get thoroughly organized and
the soreness that accompanies the
first game or two is felt no more.
No. there are not many Of the folks
in that neighborhood who would care
to say much about it, because the boys
really are not ruffians. Sometimes
they use piratical terms and get a
little bit "beefy', but as usual thing
