LOYAL BEREANS
MEETING

The Loyal Bereans OF the Christian
Bible School held another OF their
interesting business meetings at the
Church Monday night, large number
being present.
In the absence Of the president Mrs.
0. L. Bradshaw presided over the
meeting which was opened by Miss If
me Archer reading from John 18th
ihapter-"Christ the true Vine" foil
owed by prayer by Rev Bruce Nay.
The secretary then called the roll,
alter which the minutes OF the last
meeting were read and approved. The
trcasurer's report was read showing
balance OF $l0l62 in the treasury,
az increase Of over $1,000 since last
months meeting.
The chairman OF the different COM
mittccs were called on to give their
reports and each had a splendid re-
port to give Especially SO was the
report of the social and finance com
mttee. The proceeds OF the Festival
given on July llth being over sos
The chairman OF the bazaar COM
mittce gave very good report show
ing that somebody is surely getting
down to business" and we may look
forward to one Of the biggest bazaars
that we have yet had.
It was decided to change our reg
ular meeting night to the first Mon
day in each month.
Motion was made and carried that
the treasurer be instructed to turn
over $4,000 toward the building fund
this making $500 handed over since
our pledge was given few months
ago.
We regret to lose two of our best
members, Mrs. Thompson and Mr..
Myrick, but we hope to see them back
again. Plans are being made for a
picnic but more OF this later. The
meeting was closed with a prayer by
Rev Bruce Nay.
This class is steadily increasing.
Now that we have buried Mr.. Summer
Slump, there is nothing to prevent its
growth. Eight new members have
joined since our last meeting, making
total OF 90 members enrolled.
Workers are especially welcome in
this class, and while we do not appre-
ciate "slackGrs", yet we also invite
you to come, for we will soon bring
out any talent or ability that you may
have and make of you a useful mem

Away on the distant hills large homes
amid the trees appeared like MEDIEVAL
castles perched there. Orange groves,
both large and small are all around IN
nearly every yard all through that part
OF the country, none too poor to have
orange trees, if only one or two.
Outside Orlando there stands an old
time town pump. But we hurried on
getting to Daytona in time for lunch.
Then we turned toward Jacksonville
stopping in St. Augustine drove around
the main part then to the Oldest house
in the United States, went thru with
the guide and could have! spent a whole
day i'll it, but we were especially in
terested in the beautiful old dishes, es-
pecially the silver luster, also the cop
per luster. | remembered the old mug
and cream pitcher mother had of cop
per luster which l had always thought
so beautiful. The old furniture and
~ many tlllllSo, Dul YOU Gait lIldSlIlS
what feelings filled us as we gazed
on the beautiful things owned and
cherished by those long since departed;
we almost envied the people who see
these wonderful relics every day and
we intend to go back some day. Going
outside we pulled a couple of leaves
off the money vine that we may never
be quite broke Then we visited the
| famous old wishing we'll blessed by
The old time Monks. We don't tell
what our wish was, but it gives one a
wierd feeling as though the spirits OF
those old Spaniards were watching
you. Then on to the old slave mark
ct, what thoughts crowded about and
we are glad that is passed and gone. we
passed by old Fort Marion, that frowns
as though it could tell tales of horror
if possible, but we had neither the time
nor inclination to go through this old
time terror. The beautiful Hotel
Ponce de Leon was far more to our
taste. Also the fine cathedral and the
old churches, the old Spanish archi-
lecture took us back to ages gone by.
Passing out of the old city gates we
only looked toward the place where
is the so-called Fountain of Youth
but we have learned that the only foun-
tain of youth is within each of us, we
have i or not, just as we look at it.
We looked at the sun and and de-
cided to hurry on as we wished to be
in Jacksonville before dark And beau
tiful as the scenery has been and as
glad as we had been to see our dear
ones, we were glad to see old Jack
sonville. So ended a most delightful
outing made possible by the kindness
OF ourdear friends the Hootons
(Some other time we NAV tell of
the visit to Fernandina, also some 9TH
er lovely rides to different places.)

OUR YOUNG PEOPLE

been failure upon the part OF parent:
to train their children when young &c
love to attend church services as they

The church-going habit is develop
ed just as any other activity OF life is
developed and this is formed in the
carly years Of life.
Therefore it bchoovcs parents to
train their children 10 20 to church,
and love to 90.
1t is fearful thing to see multitudes
OF children and young people march
ing away from church on Sunday morn
ing just after Sunday school and in
many cases their parents going with
them, that is if the parents have at
tended Sunday school, but in too many
cases the parents are not there to
see that the children remain Tor the
preaching service, and | dare say, that
some arc not mindful OF their RESPONSE
biity along this line. We cannot hope
for children to be very much interest
ed when we ourselves are not much.
We must train our children and
young people, and train them by ex-
ample, as well as by preccpt

teachers go home after Sunday SCHOOL,
