IN MEMORIAM

In loving memory of our beloved
husband and father, Charles e.
Miller, who passed away five sad
years ago, March 4, 1855:
You bade no one a last farewell
You said goodbye to none,
The heavenly gates just opened
wide
A loving voice said come"
God saw that you were suffering
The hills were hard to climb
So he gently closed your weary
eyes,
And whispered, peace be thine
Your weary hours, your days Of
pain; your weary nights are past
Your ever patient WORKOUT frame
has found sweet rest at last
And while you lie in peaceful sleep
Your memory We shall always
keep.
Sadly missed by wife, Marie and

May His word be a spiritual
fountain forever flowing in our
hearts" Rev. ]. r. Holloway's
text for his morning sermon Sum
day, February 20, was Bring
Forth Fruit in Old Age"
Thoughts derived are that there
are more than 10 million beyond
the age of IS and those retiring
at 65 will have an average of 10
years to live. The latter years, or
golden years, are equally as re-
warding as ones younger days
Every elderly person, in order to
enjoy those Golden Years" must
have a purpose which is rooted in
God. The speaker stressed that
questions we should ask ourselves
are what are we doing for the
aged as a government? 2-What
are we as children and grandchil-
dren doing for our aged? AS a
church and what are the older
people doing to help themselves.

Stores Suffer
From RoYcoff

Atlanta (ANP) - The Negro
fight for human dignity in this
city has developed into a full
scale, about cold war involving all
segments of the Negro communi-
ty.
Because of their dramatic as
poets, the sit-in demonstrations
and the decision on the part of
young people to remain in Jail
have been highnghted in the press,
radio and TV of the nation.
However, the adult elements Of
the Negro community are waging
a quiet, undramatic struggle along
economic lines that is showing re-
markable success.
Adults Press Boycott
1t Is the boycott of the down.
town stores that have enjoyed Ne
gro patronage for many years.
Merchants conceded that the Ne
gro boycott Of the downtown area
has been almost 100 per cent eff
fective.
Department store sales in the
central-city area were down IL
per cent from last year, the Fed
eral Reserve Bank reported.
The receipts Of some variety
stores have shown a far greater
drop.
Leading merchants have said
that they are willing to desegre-
gate their lunch counters, a move
that is considered inevitable. But
they argue that they cannot do SO
because Rich's, Inc, the city's
largest department store, has re-
fused to go along.
Rich's Is a family operation that
had an excellent reputation among
Negroes prior to the sit-in dispute.
This was because Of the family's
many gifts to Negro educational
and charitable causes and the
stores courteous treatment of Ne
gro shoppers.
Rich's was the first major store
In Atlanta to address Negroes as

PILGRIM BAPTIST

Sunday February 26th, marked
the conclusion of a series of serv-
ices emphasizing Brotherhood.
The children's story was narrated
by Mr.. Horace Rivers. He impress
sed upon the children to pray
often and let God know their
needs.
First Things First was the
subject of the sermon brought by
the scholarly DR.. Massey. Text:
Solomon was wiser than all men"
I Kings 4:31. DIR. Massey's intro
ductory remarks included a synop-
tic presentation of three previous
dissertations on the mission of the
church.
The three strong points that un-
dergirded Solomon's greatness
were: ~ He brought peace to
Judea and Israel, (2) He had wis
dom, understanding and largeness
of heart and (3) He was a God
fearing man. The emphasis today
was on the fact that he took care
Of Gods house first. He built a
temple before building his own
palace. Further, he put as much
perfection in the building of the
temple as in the building Of the
palace.
Among the visiting guests was
DR.. F. H. Hurley, the brother of
Mrs. Massey.
Uniting with Pilgrim in christ
ian fellowship were: Mr.. and Mrs.

nual Blue and Gold Banquet Mon
day evening, February 81, from
$50 to 8 pm. in the Warrington
school gymnasium. This event was
attended by las cub scouts, their
families and guests.
After a most delicious dinner
highlighted by ice cream and home
made cookies, the Pack charter for
the 1861 season was presented to
Mr.. Allen Carter, institutional rep
resentative. Burton LamlIin, as
sistant district commissioner, made
the presentation. Mr.. Carter re-
ceived the charter on behalf of
Pack SO and the sponsor, Warning
ton PTA.
In a very impressive ceremony,
the following awards were pre-
sented: The Bobcat award was won
by David Johnson; the Wolf rank
was won by Solomon Hughes, Jr.,
Charles Martin and Charles Snar-
grass, who also won gold and sill
yer arrow points for work beyond

Gates by Mr.. Lamltin, assistant

mendadon Of the Viking Council,
for completing Training Recogni-
ton Plan for den mothers award.
These two den mothers are now
entering their fourth year of serv-
ice to the community in the cap
acity Of den mothers. 1t is inter-
esting to note that their sons have
graduated from cub scouts, but
these mothers continue to serve.
Many thanks were extended to
them.
The cub scout pack received ma
tional recognition by winning the
For God and Country award
and for having met, or surpassed
75% Of its goals in 1860. This
Streamer was received for the
Pack by Steven Brown who proud
ly attached it to the flag pole
above the Pack flag.
PLAQUES were also presented by
Mr.. Lamlin to James c. Campbell,
committee chairman and Robert
c. Covington, cubmaster, for pro-
viding outstanding leadership dur
ing the year Of 1860.
After a short talk by Mr.. Elmer
G. Eckland, principal Of Warning
ton school, tables were cleared for
the entertainment. Eric Janzan,
magician, kept the Cubs, as well
as adults, amazed by the very
diverse program he presented. The
, program ended with James C.
Campbell, committee chairman, Of
fering the Scout prayer.
The evening program would not
have run so smoothly had it not
been for the combined efforts Of
parents, den mothers and commit
teemen working together, plan
ming together and following
through with their plans.
Special recognition goes to the
committee in charge OF planning
for the Blue and Gold Banquet,
who were Mines. Lloyd Smith, DAN
lei Swain and James Young. They
spent many hours planning, tele-

said to be willing to desegregate
once the school desegregation
problem had been solved.
However, they took no action
after Governor Vandiver and the
Legislature cleared the way for
local communities to comply with
Federal court rulings.
Several attempts have been
made to reach both Rich and
Nicely. A subordinate, who de-
clined to permit the use Of his
name, refused to outline the stores
present position.
We're In A Dilemma"
Wed rather not talk about it,"
he said. We're in a dilemma"
He also said, There's not going
to be any change in the immediate
future"
Other merchants have said that
they would lose many white Gus
toners to Rich's if they led the
way in desegregating lunch count
ers. Some observers have called
this view questionable. Meanwhile,
most agree that every downtown
merchant is suffering.
The most important thing that
can be done is to convince the
power structure that this situa-
ton can ruin the downtown area"
one executive said.
The effect is not going to be
confined to the retail stores. 1t
will hit the banks, the office sup
ply concerns, the insurance firms,
the real estate interests and all
the rest"
