B. x. P. Y. Entertains

A very interesting and i'm
pressive meeting of the B. Y. P.
y. was held at the First Baptist
church on the evening of Dec.
81. The Union had previously
been divided into two groups
between which there was a CON
test as to attendance. activity
and new members brought into
the fold.
In this contest, Group No. |
lost and upon its members rested
the burden of the entertainment,
to which each member responded
cheerfully and acquitted himself
creditably.
The program consisted of talks
by different members, music by
the Union, and refre hments.
la the latter were a most inviting
fruit salad course, cream, cake,
etc.
Following the rendition of the
program came the election of
officers for the ensuing year.
w. w. Prout, by virtue of his
falthfulness to and abiding in
terest in the Union, was easily
the choice for president.
Other officers: A. L, Casey,
vice president; Turner Baldwin,
secretary; Mrs. w. R. Hunt,
treasurer; Mrs. J. S. Bean, cor
responding secretary; H. I.
Moore, chorister; Miss Vera
Francis, pianist; Mrs J. S. Bean,
Misses Julia Long and Luverne
Merritt and Reyes Mitts, group
captains.
Just as the midnight hour was
approaching and the old year
was taking its last farewell Mrs.
Bean very impressively and de-
liberately gave twelve taps of
the bell. With the last tap the
Union, with one accord. sang
with deep feeling the inspiring
song, Praise God from whom
all blessings flow"
Mrs. Bean deserves special
mention for her devotion to these
young people, all of whom love
her and follow her leadership.
The training being given to
this body Of our best young peo-
pie, upon whose shoulders must
rest the future of the church,
will tell in the years to come anC
prove a blessing to humanity
and to the glory of God. ***

Field mice have many enemies other

Among their enemies are coyotes, wild

bird enemies are included nearly all
hawks and owls, storls, ibises, herons,
