holding its own; yet, there is
much room for Improvement in
both the Sunday School and the

We, as teachers and leaders in
the community should get to-

There are far too many roaming
the streets in idleness when they
should be attending Sunday
School and the BTU services.
Our worshipful services are
usually good and present much
food for thought. The pastor is
a. his best every time he enters
the pulpit. Rev. Thomas spoke
briefly Sunday morning concern
ing the Triumchant Entry of
Christ into Jerusalem.
The baptismal service was
beautiful Sunday morning as the
Candidates entered the pool. The
choirs are rendering very good
services, their renditions are fill
ed with spiritual power every
Sunday. Next Sunday an Easter
exercise will be rendered by the

At HOO o'clock the devotion
period was led by Deacon j. w.
Johnson and Grady Mann, fol-
lowed by a soul-stirring message
delivered masterfully by our be-
loved pastor, Rev. Thomas. His
subject was "Hosanna," and the
sermon was enjoyed by the en-
tire assembly.
The BTU hour was opened at
$50 pm. with the president, as
usual, presiding. There was an
other great sermon preached on
Sunday evening. This message
was delivered by Rev. Pickett.
The spirit out of the souls of
many was very high as he spoke
from his text: For / am not
ashamed of the Gospel, for it is
the power of God unto salvation.
Come out and worship with us

Ford: Say, Tee, do you know
I did 90 to Miami 'tother day, /
met a woman and she had a baby
in her arms. Then I met her the
second time after the police had
arrested her. A policeman asked
her what was the baby's name
and she said that his name was
Jack. Then the policeman said,
''Woman, don't you know that no
one but the police is allowed to
tote a black jack in town." So the
Judge charged her $40 and told
her not to do it anymore. So, I
left her again.

rules of admission were adopted
yesterday at the annual meeting
Of the Hall of Fame Association.
The most noteworthy change
provides for elections to the Hall
Of Fame every two years instead
Of annually as has been the Gus
tom since 1886.
The special committee on vet
Grams that considers only players
who have been retired for 80
years or managers and umpireS
for five years will hold an cleo
ton in 1857. No more than two
veterans can be selected at any
one election by the special COM
mittee.
Ten-year members of the
Baseball Writers Association will
vote in alternate years, starting
in 1858, for men who have played
10 years or more during the past
80 years and who have been re-
tired as active players for five
years preceding the election.
These players. however, may be
connected otherwise with base
ball. Heretofore, any man still
active in a baseball uniform,
either as a coach or manager,
was not eligible.
