Spent an afternoon in Benton
Wolking foot logs, climbing hills
and meeting some wonderful peo-
pie. 1t was most pleasant meeting
Mrs. Mary Smith johnson, the
mother of 10 wonderful children.
Three of her sons are in the U. S.
Army. Mrs. johnson is a member
of the Pleasant Hill AME Church
where her husband, the late Rev.
Johnson, was the pastor for many
years. She is an ardent religious
worker and popular among the
families in Benton. One cannot
think of Benton without realizing
that the st. Paul Baptist Church
there has one of the best jubilee
choirs in Arkansas. It's a small
choir, but they really sing. 1t was
a unique day in my life and l
shall be visiting Benton again.
Thought of the week: The best
way to get ahead is to live on
