GREENWOOD

The Young Peoples Association o.
Greenwood is becoming a real live
organization to do things for the
whole community, and to better the
social condition of the town. The or
ganization was brought into being by
the pastor of the Greenwood M. P
Church, the Rev. NJ. w. Sutclfffe This
isn't a church organization but COM
munity one, with the idea in mind
that the social activity should right
ly be under the direction of the
church. The membership is offered to
any young man or young woman over
the age of IA years. Meetings are held
every Monday night in the Methodist
Protestant Church. A social evening
will follow each meeting, and the
young people will have the Opportun-
ity of enjoying themselves with good
clean games. It is planned to have
public social evenings, every Saturday
charging very small admissions.
On Tuesday, May Both, Memorial
Day, the Young Peoples Association
will have a real afternoon of sports
on the grounds of Greenwood high
school. There will be races of all
kinds for young and old, winning the
various events. Come out to this gala
afternoon, bring your lunch, and make
it a real picnic time at Greenwood. Re
freshments will be on sale. Any one
can enter the following races: sack
races, for men and women, three-leg-
ged races, shoe race, egg race, sew
eral distance races-up to 1-2 mile
events. We are also planning real
Old-time pie race. This will offer a
real opportunity of laughing away
your trouble.
