turn to her home at Plant City as soon
as she settles her affairs here.
Mr.. and Mrs. Coggins and family
of Weirsdale were guests of Mr.. and
Mrs. L. A. Jones Sunday.
The fifth Sunday meeting at Olivet
church was a most enjoyable occas-
ion. The program was carried out
with but few changes There were
doctrinal sermons lectures on Sunday
school and B. Y. P. u. work, the duties
of deacons, etc. Nothing was omitted
and we felt that each speaker had
perpared his discourse with study and
care. Large crowds attended both
days and at the noon hours visitors
and friends enjoyed sociable. good
time together. We had never had the
privilege of mingling with quite so
many Baptists at one time. though
used to them in smaller doses for a
long time past. The ministers here
are good, earnest Christian men and
their efforts are being crowned with
success. We are not used to four
sermons day for two days at a time,
either, but culled few thoughts from
each sermon to think on when we get
back to normal feelings after such a
feast of good sermons. One thing we
will mention about the dinners both
days. There was a noticeable absence
of chicken-not enough to feed two
healthy Methodist preachers. Do the
Baptist preachers like chicken as well
as others? Wed like to know. Some
of the visitors noted by us both days
were: Revs. R. F. Rogers, ]. F. Gable,
Ocala; Rev. J. C. Boatwright and
family, Rev. N. B. Plummer, Mr.. and
Mrs. Cowart. Anthony; Rev. d. E.

resented, a large portion of Calvary
friends, and needless to say, nearly all
of Shady. The weather was ideal,
sunny and just cool enough. There
was so much dinner both days, left
over, it was decided to serve supper at
the church. which was enjoyed by all
VINO remained. Much good was done,
we feel sure, and Olivet church hopes
to entertain another fifth Sunday
Injecting some time in the not too dis
. tant future.
Shady, Feb. 9.-Mr. L. M. Murray

health and strength.
