the spiritual side is definitely the one
that comes to the fore
Now always supposed that becom-
ing spiritual, when the time was right,
would be as easy as falling in love
back ON the first level
But many people, I've discovered,
are spiritual old maids and bachelors.

Monday.
But the incoming American
leaders of foreign policy-Presi-
dent-elect Eisenhower and his
choice yesterday for Secretary OF
State. John Foster Dulles-were
reported by the New York Times
as being very skeptical that any
of the proposals now before the
.. N. Assembly could produce a
Korean armistice.
The Times said Mr.. Dulles
skepticism was based on the "un-
ending difficulties" the United
States. Britain and France had
encountered in trying to negotiate
an independence treaty for Aus
trla with the Soviet Union.
After the Western powers gave
way on the points previously in
disagreement. the Soviet Union
brought up the issue of Trieste,
and it is understood that Mr..
Dulles feels that the Communists
would find something else if the
Korea prisoner issue were settled"

Church Notes
BY CeOla Smith =

The Rev H. Mast, pastor Of our
third church in Oklahoma City,
will bring the communion mes
sage Sunday morning at the 11:OO
o'clock hour.
We were honored last Sunday
morning with the presence of Rev.
c. N. Hall of Mt. Calvary Baptist
Church, who brought encouraging
and congratulatory remarks to the
congregation. The Rev. Mr.. Hail
is having his services during the
month of August early, beginning
at 700 o'clock am, thereby Civ
ing his members time for visiting,
which we think is very fine
spirit.
Our church was Sadden this week
by the passing of Sister Leila Mon
Grief, the sister OF Mrs. Mariah
Chambers of 1888 E. Lincoln. Mrs.
Moncrief was dutiful member Of
the church and Sunday School. She
was also an inspiration to the ladies
class of which Mrs. Alberta Myles
is teacher. 1 am sure all who knew
Sister Moncrief will agree that the
following poem in memory of her
is befitting and proper:
T Worship thee sweet will of God,
And all thy ways adore:
And every day / live,
I long to love thee more and more.
When obstacles and trials seem
Like prison walls to be,
I do the little that I can
And leave the rest to thee.
Funeral services will be held at
] o'clock Saturday afternoon at
the church. Rev. L. J. Harper will
cfficiate.
