&C. Francis Downs, Sunday
School superintendent, announc-
es the following services for
Sunday, August 81: Church

ship, III am. ]. Reynolds Pratt,
well-known local church leader,
will conduct the services in the
absence of the pastor, the Rev.
Guy H. McWilliams, who is va
cationing.
Todays Meditation: A word
from Emerson-"I like the sill
ent church before the service
begins better than any preach
ing" Silence has high values,
and is a reminder of the trivial,
the unworthy thought. The sem
tence is to remind us of the
great value of silent medita-
tion. Let us make it quiet
moment in which to rededicate
ourselves to our best purposes,
and to restate our faith and
take a new grasp on it.
The Devotional Reading for
Today: For the Lord God is a
sun and shield; be bestows fav-
or and honor. No good thing
does the Lord withhold from
those who walk uprightly.-
Psalm 84:l2.

picked up a corner of it and
turned it over and looked on the
other side. The threads were
running crafty in every direc.
