Tribute ToALady

Roanokers have know
many personalities of this
part of the country but few
have transcribed the heights
of the fair lady to whom we
would pay tribute here. She
is Miss Sadie V. Lawson, local
school teacher, church and
civic worker.
Miss Lawson can never be
able to measure the extent OF
her instruction, nor the i'm
port of her life.
1t was just the other day
that one of her former stu
dents, now a parent of a
sizeable family herself, men
toned that Miss Lawson"
taught me to "say it like this"
1t does appear that Miss
Lawson has imbued her stu
dents with the urgency to
,, know what is correct, and
then to say it. No finer tri-
butte could be paid anyone.
She has taught and inspired
thousands of children, who,
in turn, have inspired others
because of the torch lit early
in their own lives by their
teacher and friend to whom
they affectionately refer as
''Miss Sadie ""
The entire city of Roanoke
regrets her illness and it is
our hope that the loving
Father of us all will hear her
prayers and ours, that she
may recover quickly and com
pletely.
] would like to quote a fav-
crate line here for Miss Law
son, as it always cheers and
gives me courage, it will dc
the same for her.

compensation, until the "devil
was preached out of the
church."
So impressed with the mes
sages of this shining new per-

"Not only does the pastor
receive no monies from our
church," a devoted member
said this week, "but he puts
money in the church every
Sunday"
Last summer, in keeping
with his call of evangelism,
DR.. O'Hara travelled over
1900 miles covering nine
states from New York to
Sacramento, Calf, preaching
to literally thousands. This
pleased him much as it re-
called his other evangelistic
programs following his call
to the ministry August 25,
1853.
Under the new pastors
leadership, the church, located
in the heart of the redevelop-
ment section of ST. Louis, has
progressed steadily. From a
Sunday School, which aver
aged about Is to 20 pupils
per week, over 100 children
were in attendance there last
Sunday. In the eight weeks,
the minister has been pastor
ing at the church over 1913
additional persons have be-
come registered and each
Sunday morning the pews
are filled to capacity.
| For DR.. O'Hara, typical
Sunday starts at 9 am. at
the church and it doesn't fin
| ish until after the last soul
has left the building Sunday
night. Between pastoring and
serving an ever increasing
number of dental and surgi-
cal patients in his various
offices he is kept unusually
busy.
