ASSUME new POSITION

ed to the local church from Eliza
beth, N. J., where he had been pas
tor Of the Greystone Presbyterian
church for ten years. DR.. Bevans
preached his first sermon here on
May II, 1925, when he began his pas
torate that has been marked by the
first use Of radio for religious pur-
poses in Paramount and by other adj
vances that has kept the local church
in step with the changing mode in
the presentation of the Christian ap-
peal.
DR.. Stoetzer remained as pastor.
emeritus after DR.. Bevans came here
and he continued his service to the
church until the day of his death,
June 9, 1881.
The first sermon ever presented
over radio station WMMN was preach
ed on Christmas Sunday in 1928.
From that time to the present, DR..
Bevans has used the medium Of radio
as well as the medium Of the press
to present the appeal of Christianity
to the widest audience possible. He
has served continually as chairman
of the radio committee of the Fair
mount Ministerial association and in
this capacity organized the Morning
Religious Fellowship program, fea-
ture of WMMN, in which 10 local
ministers take part.
In using the press to amplify the
Christian message, DR.. Bevans has
followed a practice he started in
Elizabeth, N. j., when he published
a summary of religious talk regu-
larly in the local newspapers. The
Fairmont newspapers have carried on
this idea under the leadership of DR..
Bevans.
In community affairs DIR. Bevans
has been active throughout his resi-
dence here. He was one of the lead
ers in the organization of the Cen
trail Council of Social and Civic or
ganization and served as the coun-
CLIPS president for one year. He join

EASTERN SHO' SUPPLIED
With COTTON TAILS

Fifty crates of Missouri's choicest
cotton-tail rabbits are on their way to
the Eastern Shore Of Maryland, ac-
cording to E. Lee LeCompte, State
game warden who said that rabbits
were very scarce on the Shore be-
cause of the unfavorable weather
conditions in recent years.
The 600 Missouri Dummies will be
released in Dorchester, Wicomico and
Worcester counties.
Hartford county also will receive a
few. Some counties in Western Mary
land already have received shipments
and other counties will get their share
later, according to the Associated
Press.

man being asked why they placed a
cooked chicken on the grave of their
departed, the suggestion being made
that the fowl could not be eaten. The
reply was that our American dead
couldn't smell the flowers placed on
their mounds, but both customs still
prevail.
So, getting back to the beginning,
/ can't see why that Chinee woman
wanted to think of dissolution, even
for the infinitesimal part of a second,
if the prospect were as dismal as pic
tured by the pagan faith. 1t just
shows to what extent we mortals-
no matter of what race, color or
previous condition of servitude we are
will go to satisfy the curious strain
in our make-ups. AS for me, when
I ride in a hearse, I'll like it so well,
I'll decide never to have any other
car. When I'm laid in the grave,
won't hold a mirror to my eye to see
how 1 look; and I won't read any
account of the last sad rites. When
I take the final excursion to the
acres of the dead, I'll be like them,
and I won't know about any public
ity stunt-all of which means, I'll be
with you today, tomorrow, and the
rest of the week if 1 have my say,
and seek avocations other than joy
riding in hearse.
