APPRECIATION OF CHRIST.
MAS REMEMBRANCE

For m away from home to have
a long distance call, a special delivery
letter or a telegram usually creates
just for a moment more or less nerv-
BUSINESS. On December 26, while Wis.,
ting at the home of my sister in
Memphis, | received a special delivery
letter. Naturally / wondered why
and from whom. When l opened the
letter, ! saw a long list of names of
my Masonic brethren, at home, and
q mighty nice remembrance of me.
When / looked at the gift and the
list of names, l breather a prayer that
/ might be a better man and show
myself more worthy of the confidence
and the esteem of my Masonic broth
! cannot express in language
just how much / appreciate the gift,
an if ! know my own heart and mind,
/ appreciate the spirit that prompted
the gift far more than the gift.
Gifts r feeting but friendship and
love endures. l am making this pub
lie acknowledgment in the hope that
l may emphasize my appreciation. I
pray heavens RICHEST rewards for one
and all. May brotherly love prevail
and may moral and social virtue ce-
ment US and make each of us more
useful to our community.
Aain asking one and all to accept
nv warmest appreciation and thanks,

Over 30 -zoung people, most of whom
were Epworth Leaguers of the First
Methodist church, attended a corn-roast
last evening, in Covey's pasture off

reational department, was respons-
ible for large pile of dry wood, care
fully laid in between the rocks of the
quarry" No sooner had the party ar
rived at the top of the half-mile hill
than the flames began tG rise. As soon
as the fire was right. a veritable ban
quet was served on the savage plan.
Wenies. corn and maTshmallnws were
roasted in turn. The only LIQUID re-
freshment was hot coffee. which in some
mysterious way arrived on the spot al
most at the boiling point The exhu-
berant spirit created by such a repast
in the Young folks found expression IN
songs. which added much to the enjoy
ment
At an early hour the entire group re-
turned to the Coyev home on Western
avenue and held business me"t''~-
which such plans We're made that all
Young people of the Methodist church
are promised much inspiration, enlov-
