REVEREND C.E. ASKEW

A public statement has inst hner
issued by the Baptist Ministers
Alliance. which meets REGULARLY
each Tuesday at the Baptis, Chris
tian Center. az joe. Campau and
Arndt streets. concerning their
findings following a thorough In
vestieation OF the internal distur-
nance which recently occurred at
M. Olive Baptist Church. and
which resulted In court action and
the oustIng OF Rev. C. r. Askew as
pastor.
The signed statement. as given TO
the Tribune this week. IL as fol-
lows:
AFTER a thorough study Of the
facts we find that according 20 the
Baptist Church law. Rev. c. f. AS
kew Is still the pastor OF the MI.
Olive Baptist Church; that the
leaders In the disturbance were
under a charged placed there by
the church and therefore had no
voce: that Rev. Mills who presided
ut the irreguler meeting. did so in
ignorance and after an acknowl-
edgement by Rev. Mills. that he did
not know the laws and that ne
would not be guilty of such an Of

Tense again. Rev. Mills was forg1, :
en- by the conference and restored
10 the fellowship Of the brethern
again.
I'VE make this statement in the
interest of fair play TO Rev. c. r..
Askew. who has done such a noble
work here in our city; and TO the
many fine members OF the Mt.
Olive Baptist Church. that did not
approve the unchristian acts COM
mited IN the name OF the church.
I'VE further wish to state tina
the laws OF our church are suffi-
cient to take care OF any and all
difficulties that may arise In the
church: providing that the mem
bers are willing to abide bv the de-
cision OF the church and that the
aid OF the courts are sought ONLY
when in dividuals or groups act as

Luckily most of our most color
full vegetables and fruits are
cheap. Vegetables of different
color and shaped into Christmas
symbols give an air of feStivity to
the dinner.
A very happy Christmas story
was written about mother who
told the story of the Nativity to
her daughters as she prepared the
Christmas dinner.
This mother happened to be
very poor and her Christmas din
ner was meat stew. AS she washed
and chopped her vegetables she
told of the humble birth of the
Child, the manger. and the rich
gifts that the Wise Men laid at
the feet of the Mother and Child.
Each of her vegetables were
shaped into part of the story. The
raw turnipS were cut as stars, the
carrots were Jumps Of gold. the
spices were fragrant frankincenSe
and myrrh. The topping of
dumplings were wooly lambs that
were in the manger.
1t was a happy occasion and
the story delighted these two little
daughters who had very little else
of Christmas to look forward to.
Here are two menus for dinner
that are very inexpensive, and
also a delicious recipe for stew
with dumplings:

Etiquette
Type Of Dress
For Guests
ByMRS.CORNELIUS BEECKMAN
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:

ByMRS.CORNELIUS BEECKMAN
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
"When an invitation is given
by telephone to q bridge or Sun.
day night supper party, is it the
duty of the hostess to tell the
guests what they are to do in re-
gard to dressing - whether the
men are to wear TuxedOs; or are
you supposed to ask, in case she
doesn't say?
when entertaining with a
bridge party and you are planning
to serve a light supper at the
end of the evening, and you wish
to serve a cocktail of some sort,
Is it best to serve the drink when
your guests first arrive, or mid
way during the game?--L."
When there is a doubt about
the correct dress, it is a simple
matter for the hostess to indicate
the type of dress to her guests.
1t is she who determines the type
of dress she wishes worn at her
party, and it is proper for her to
make this clear. If she doesn't,
it is just as good form for the
guests to inquire, either when the
hostess telephones the invitation.
or later, when the doubt may
arise.
II you are planning to serve
cocktails at a supper party (this
isn't usually done). then it would
be best to wait until you are about
to serve the refreshments.

Nothing Gained

It is well to purchase certain
seasonable foods early as a new
supply will not be ordered before
Christmas.
Dried figs, dates, nuts, hard
Christmas candies, raiSinS, oranges
are all in this class. These are
all being displayed in abundance
at the groceries now. They play
a leading part on Christmas Eve
and Christmas Day. Children'S
stockings would hardly be COM
plete without an assortment OF
nuts and candies.
