A "Sea of Good Things Good
People Furnish Bountiful
Feast For Every
body.

Where shall I begin, / am at sea,
a sea of good things, about our w.
NJ. U. Association. We have all
been looking forward to this great
event and for the past month work
ing hard to be ready to take care Of
the ones who would come and spend
a night or two over among us.
Then to be sure to have enough
dinner for all of them, ,and thanks to
all our friends and neighbors from
the Sweetwater and Dothan con-
gregations we had a sbounteous sup
ply and we hope each one had all
they wished for to eat both days.
We all enjoyed having the good
ladies with us in our homes and
hope that they enjoyed their stay
with US as much as we did having
them. 1t was our good fortune to
have Mrs. ]. L. Minis, Mrs. Ma
mie Tlllman, Mrs. Davis. Misses
Gladys Lyon and Eleanor Minis,
spend the night with us, although
we were told beforehand that we
should not have them. Were sorry
Mr.. Minis, Mr.. and Mrs. Cogburn
and Mrs. Lott, could not come with
us. There were many others we
were anxious to have, but they went
home.
Ny! when we were sitting there
listening to those gifted ladies, we
wondered why we were left out so
completely in those gifts. So many
beautiful addresses given by those
Cody women of the Woman's Mis-
sionary, Y. w. AS, and the SUP
beams. God bless the little chill
dren, may they be trained while
young, so they will be efficient to do
His work well.
Mrs. Walter Stevens has the Har'
dy's Su beams in charge, and is do
|ing got' work, as they proved SO
'beautifs. y on Wednesday by their
dialognss Little MisssEstelle Coop.
er's @elc lme TO the visiting Sun
beams was excellent, and little Miss
LOFTS response SO happily given.
We thought of herr otheFeand what
she had said to US the day before,
(''I cannot stay thank you, but am
leaving my daughter as my repre-.
sentative" and wished she could
have been there and seen and heard
how well, her daughter acquitted her
self. The little girls, Mathews girls,
that sang Mr.. Lakes song, were SC
sweet aud kind to sing so beautiful
ly and Mrs. John Mathews to play
for them. We most heartily appre'
cia,e Miss Youngblood's kindness
in coming and giving such beauti'
full music, Misses Allen of Savan
nah, Salter of Trenton, and Mrs.
Julius Vann Of Trenton, in assist
ing with the singing. We thank
all, all the neighborhood, for com
ing, and hope this will wake oul
people up to trying and achieving
more and better work. in the future
for cur Master, all the visitors
both near and far for their interest il
this great work. And hope, as
Mrs. Minis said the churches may
have to be enlarged, so the men car
all come in, and hear what is being
done in the Masters work by the
women, and may that be an ineen
tiye to wake up the men to theil
duty. We must not forget to thank
all the good men for so kindly
helping US with the cue and waiting
on the tables for us. Those who were
not there, do not realize what they
missed.
We were sorry to hear one ot
our best workers, Miss Georgis
Reese was sick and could not at
tend. Hope she is feeling muct
better ere this.
Mr.. and Mrs. John Reese have q
lovely little daughter, Mary Kath
rine. We congratulate them.

tie lady that welcomed the visiting
