Concentrating "Youth Day" Rev.
j. Frederick Bailey preached very
fatherly to the young people on
Youths Greatest Choices, "They were
career, marriage, and master. The
Junior Choir with Gloria Fur acting
as soloist rendered two beautiful selec-
tions. Mrs. A. Furey joined Shiloh
and was given the right hand fellow
ship of the members.-In the after
noon one of the largest crowds of en-
thusiastic young people jammed Shiloh
to attend the B.Y.PU., youth Day"
services. The guest speaker the Rev.
Robert Smith of Haverhill, who led
large band of Havarhill youths to Shi-
lob spoke in his usual brilliant style on
Living Your Life" Among the guest
visitors noticed were Reynolds Costa of
the N.A.A.C.P. and John T. Lane of
the Juvenile Court of Boston. Much
OF the credit for the success of this
program goes to the Program Com

We are glad to hear that Mr. Brent
is home rapidly recovering from his
slckness.-One of the most delightful
suppers ever served was enjoyed bv
all who attended the Mems Club "Tur-
key Supper" last Thursday at the
church. 1t was clearly shown by the
support of the people that they desired
to have their dream of a Community
house realized. Much credit should be
given the head chef, Paul J. Byrd, and
his staff of helpers for their great patti
ence with the hungry throngs. A vote
OF thanks should be given the persons
who contributed toward the Walters
fund which really gave them little for
their troubles.-Our weekly boosts goes
to the following Northumberland
Lassiter for her sponsoring of the best
Shiloh youth program in years; Mems
Club for their winning fight to build a
Community home.
