Sunday morning the church
paid tribute to two worthy or
CARNATIONS in the community.
namely the St. Mark Brother
hood, Percy Steele, president,
and 386th Infantry AMVETS,
Joseph Williams, commander.
Rev, LaviScount preached a
most awakening sermon on
God Have Mercy" a cry often
lamented when we are in a
devastating circumstance or any
terrorfying situation which we
can do little or nothing about.
However, he did point out that
there are things that we can 90
something about, such as the
juvenile delinquency problem
and other such problems that
effect our community today
these we can correct. The World
Day of Prayer will be observed
this week at the Elliot Congre-
gational Church on Friday.
March 5. The first in a series
of seminars was held at the
Dudley st. Baptist Church on
Tuesday, March 2, at 8 pm.
DR.. F. Meek was the distin-
guished guest speaker. Our
deepest Sympathy is extended
to the family and members of
the church of Rev Fisher, who
departed this life this week.
This is great loss to the
entire community. The flowers
on the altar today were given
by Mrss. Ethel Thomas and
her brother, Walter BeckeIey. in
loving memory of their mother,
Mrs. Laura Bleckley. Miss Josie
TreSvant sang a well-known
solo, MY Task" which was
very beautifully interpreted.
The choir sang a new selection.
Break Forth" All are welcome
to the Mid-week Lenten servi-
ces held every Wednesday night
during Lent at 8 sharp.

Dr. Fishers last ambition
and hope was to build House

faithful assistants however hope
and pray that his spirit will
live on and that there will rise
up an able booied and capable
leader to carry on the task for
which he has laid such a firm
foundation The Church Of Per-
sonal Experience and it's mem

ed together in a strong tie of
Christian fellowship to be a
living monument to their be-
loved leader, Eev. w. Frederic
Fisher who literally gave his
life in serving others. He took
no thought for himself He
worked day ana night. No pro-
blem ws.s too small to command
his attention and no person fell
so low that he would not reach
down helping hand and lift
him from the mire, standing
him on his feet and saying go
and try life anew with God
for with Him all things are
possible.
The funeral was one OF the
largest Boston has ever seen.

(MARCH) 1854

We loved you truly, Director dear,
Loyal the watch around your bier;
Faithful, the hearts whom God has blessed,
Through your teaching, where Faith was stressed
Not goodbye but just adieu
Thro faith we get blessed view,
Your desire granted, 'tobehold His face"
Jesus, Who saved you by His grace.
We hear Him say rest rest now son,
Victory is yours Your race is run
From care and labor, set you free;
Reign now eternally with Me-"
'Wel done, we'll done" the chant is heard,
And all of Heavens ether is stirred
It's just one glorious refrain,
"Well done Fisher" again and again.
We see loved ones welcoming you,
Mother-Father friends not few!
Each soul whose life was made richer,
Thro you, Gods servant, Rev. Fisher.
Your life-your death was not in vain;
Your coming here was Boston's gain;
Your epthaph to be read thro the years.

Your columnist was surprised
last week when a tan queen
detective chief and bevy of
exquisite assistants arrived in
Hubtown to solve an extraordi-
nary police local problem that
has been hanging fire for a
long time. A note from a friend
was handed to me by the queen
as means of making certain
contacts during their opera

my imagination to find out. I
have never known such a mis-
sion to be undertaken by an

squad. Their ANONYMITY is all
wrapped up in mystery too
battling for an oldtime news

move by any of the squad
would give an inkling of what
the story is all about. How

But until our time the re-
