CITIZEN OF INTEREST

II is simply amazing when
we think of how one person
can be so useful for so many
wears, and even afcr doing so
for years, still refuse to sit
back and say II used to do"
Our Citizen of Interest for
this week is just such a person.
A native product of the state
Ct Georgia, born Nov. %. 1875
ard since he was ID years old,
has worked constantly in vari-
Gus positions in the Baptist
Churches.
He is Charlie Bell of 22l2
Mack Ave. He finished pub
lie school at the AGE of is.
after which he entered At
lanfa BAPTIST Seminary ard
remained there until his
mother and father died and
he was left self-sp-porting.
The PeachState prionecr said
Of that Il had to cancel my
aim We gathered from his
conversation that Mr.. Bell had
set a high goal in life but as in
many instances was interrupted.
AT he age Of %, he married
petite (and believe me she is
still petite and cu;e) Lucy Will
son, to whom he has been mar
ried Sc years.
When asked some time ago
how they made il so long. his
answer was: We've had blow
cuts but we've ra.ched the
tres and kept g1ing."
The couple moved to Detroi'
in 1917. They united with :hc
Shiloh Baptis' Church currently
pastored by Rev. s. ID Ross
During the 40 years in this city
he has served as superintendent
of the Sunday School. president
of the BYPU. president Of City
BTU for 10 years.
All this time he served as
deacon. and for TIC pas so years
has held a special interest in
boys.
In 1922 he began Troop No
366. He served as Scoutmas'cr
for 35 years. He served as pres
ident of the Deaccn's Union o.
Detroit for IA years.
At present he is chairman OF
the board of deacons of the
Warren Ave. Baptist Church
and teaches a boys class. After
all our citizen has another in
terest: he enjoys listening to
baseball, and. Of course. who
could blame him from such in
terest? With such a Give wire

Jackie Robinson who recently
hung up his gloves.
