SUNDAYS SERVICES
AT BAPTIST CHURCH
WORKERS ARE VERY ENTHU.
SIASTIC AND HOPE TO SOON
REACH GOAL OF 500.

The gain in attendance and spirit
and numbers at the Dawson Baptist
Sunday school last Sunday was sub
stantial. Had there not been so much
flu and an epidemic OF chicken poX
the effort for 500 would have been a
success, the gain over last Sunday be-
ing so. The various workers OF the
school are planning for at least 500
next Sunday; they hope to hold 500
the next Sunday, and some are already
growing optimistic about 6O0 the last
Sunday in this month when special
efforts will be made to have all the
home department and the cradle roll,
and special cars in and out OF town
to bring in all those who may not hap
pen to have a car, and may not feel
able to walk.
There will be special Easter music
at both the morning and evening hours
next Sunday The musicians are max
ing special efforts to have the best
possible singing, both special and con
gregational, in honor OF the resurrec-
ton of our Lord. Another special feat
ure of the services is that everybody
is asked to wear a flower OF some de-
scription at both the regular preaching
services. There will be a committee Of
young ladies to supply roses for any
who may not think to secure one be-
fore coming to the church.
The subjects for the services will be
as follows: Morning, "a Worthy Of
fering." Evening, THE Great Resur-
rac+;Op Mornino "
Baptist families are urged to attend
prayer meeting. Now that the stores
close at six o'clock all the merchants
of the town have the opportunity Of
attending the mid-week services OF the
church. Would it not be a fine thing
if the husbands, fathers and sons
would go home each Wednesday, and
take the family out to prayer meeting?
You would make your prayer meeting
service as good again as it IS. Try it,
and see.
