The Methodist WOman'S Missionary
Society had their first social meeting
last Monday at the home of Mrs
Robert Butler. Miss Pawnee Glover
conducted the devotional program. The
topic of the missionary program, as
adapted from missionary Voice." was
concerning t he urgent missionary
need in, the various countries. There
was also a spirited discussion in re.
gard to the Laymens movement in all
the large cities, and how nearly it is
being accepted in the small towns. Al
the close Of the interesting program
the hostess served a delicious salad
course, consisting Of chicken salad
olives, crackers and iced tea. Mrs. c
E. Busey contributed much to the
! pleasure of the afternoon by her cor
net music.
Without doubt the largest crowds
that have ever thronged the Baptis
church, or any other church in town
are present at the series Of reviva
services now in progress at the Baptis
church, where preaching is conducted
by Rev. c. E. Roney, Of the Highlan'
Baptist church in Shreveport, assisted
by Pastor J. G. Cox. He has certainl,
the gift of the Holy Spirit for ser
vice. His message is so simply spoke1
that the smallest child can understand
and his preaching has been attends
with happy results as many nav
sought the Lord and found peace an
comfort to the souls, and church men
bers have been revived. Bro. Roney'
talk to the school children on Wednes
day morning at the school was mos
timely and clear, as pupils in the low
est grades thoroughly understood hi
meaning as they later repeated hi
message to their teacher in an INTEL
gent manner. The music during tn
meeting is under the able direction {
Mrs. J. G. Cox, who is also organls
and the special song each evening b
Mr.. Byron Cox is very much apprecia
ed by the congregation. There is n
doubt but that Arcadia and vicinit
will reap a great harvest Of good frol
this meeting.
