those present:
Whereas, since the last meeting
Of stockholders of this bank, Death
has laid its pallid hands upon one of
our members and beloved associates,

tock-holder and director of this in
bitution ever since its organization,
nore than thirty years; his service

If the bank have been invaluable,
md our long association with him has
never been marred by single jar of
my nature, therefore be it:
Resolved, that in the death of our
1eloved associate we have lost one of
he most valued stockholders and of
fcers of this institution, which is
greatly deplored by us, and we here
1y tender his family our profoundest
sympathy.
Resolved further, that these reso-
lutions be spread upon the minutes
of the Bank and copy be furnished

MINISTERS REGRET
HANCOCK'S LEAVING

The ministers of Paris and vicinity
in a called meeting, January 8, 1918,
voiced their sincere regret in giving
up Rev. Lambreth Hancock, pastor of
the First Christian church, who leaves
at once to enter the army Y. M. c,
A. work. Resolutions were passed
expressing their deep love and respect
for him, and praying that Gods ben
ediction may abundantly rest upon
him and his efforts in his new field.
His hearty cordiality, his ready CO.
operation, and his lofty zeal will be
missed. We rejoice with him that his
ability and earnestness has been rec
ognized. Our prayers and best wish
es shall follow him.

thing to see so many churches as we
have, pulling together in the common
cause; Paris should be proud of that
idea among the pastors and churches.
It's ideal beside the old idea of brick
singing. Go to chuch Sunday!
The campaign will continue for
seven more Sundays. Sunday week
will be Sunday School Rally Day in
all the churches. 1t is expected that
not less than 1900 people will be in
the schools on that day. 1t will be
a good idea to get in practice for that
day by going next Sunday.
On one Sunday during the CAM
paign there will be an exchange of
pulpits by the pastors. The last week
will be devoted to evangelistic servl-
ces, closing the campaign with De-
cision Day-the last Sunday of Feb
ruary.
Go to church Sunday-take some
one with you.

G0-TO-CHURCH CAMPAIGN
STARTS OFF WITH RUSH

The campaign now being conducted
for greater church attendance in
Paris and Heny county started off
we'll last Sunday, although it was a
very disagreeable day. Regardless
of the weather, people can usually
go anywhere during the week but it
is generally understood that you are
likely to take cold if you go out on
Sunday-especially if you go to
church.
Some exploded this superstition last
Sunday. Or is it superstition? We
might as well "fess up" and tell the
truth and say that it is simply an
excuse which we use to stay at home
and let the Lords work go without
our help.
Someone said, Church members
are valuable only so long as they are
willing to cooperate with other mem
bers." This is the time of co-opera-
tion in big effort. 1t is an unusual

Paris Company OF National

FIRST DRILL BE
HELD SATURDAY
Few More Recruits Required
To Bring Paris Organization
To War Strength.

With a strength Of ninety-eigh
men, the Paris company of the Fiftl
regiment, Tennessee National Guard
responded to the call for muster last
! Saturday evening and was sworn into
4 the service of the state and nation
by Major Daughtry, of Nashville
Since being mustered four more re.
cruits have been secured, bringing
the number of enlisted men up to
102.
Major Daughtry authorized DR.. J.
u. Weldon, commander of the COM
pany, to secure an armory for the
men, and. be. has procured the up
stairs of the building on East Wash
ington street over Gatlin's Transfer
Company and tho White Way Bar
ber Shop. This is an excellent hall
I Tor this purpose being large enough
ker all drill work of the men. Head
quarters will also be maintained
there at which the men may spend
their leisure hours in reading, writ
ing, etc. The commander has writ
en- to the mayor and board of alder
Mep, upon the suggestion of Major
Dadghtry, and requested that the
city Of Paris furnish water and
lights free Of charge The majority
Of municil ities are doing this.
A non-eoinmissioned officers meet
ing and school was held at the ar
mory Tuesday night, at which num-
Der of the men were present. These
meetings will be held from time to
time in order to instruct the nom
CONS in military tactics
The first regulation drill will be
held next Saturday, January 12, at
1880 o'clock, at which all men are
called to be present. The maneuvers
will be held at the armory.
The organization Of the Fifth Ten
nesseee Regiment will be completed
as soon as the local company, the
company at Jackson and the two COM
panies at Memphis are filled to war
strength, which will be accomplished
very soon. When all companies of
the Fifth regiment are filled reor-
ganization will be held al which time
the Paris company will be transferred
to the Fourth regiment. This will
be done because the Fifth Tennessee
will be exclusively an East Tennessee
oganization.
The commander states that there
is still room in the local organization
for a few men beween the ages OF

to enlist should cal lon DIR. Weldon
