SENIOR NEWS
Now that almost everyone is
well and able to be back on the
jolb, we are here with another
edition of the Senior news. One
senior, Ezra Lee Hughes, is still
unable to be at school. We hope
she recovers soon.
The Seniors held their run-off
for the class favorite girl. 'Win-
ning this honor was Ezra Lee
Hughes with Barbara Morgan and
Pat Robertson runners-up.
Words cannot express the Sen-
ior’s gratitude to iMr. Mercer, Mr.
Wood, and the faculty for their
making it possible for us to pass
this semester’s work by calling
off the mid-term test.
This week Alton Chapel is in
the “Who’s Who.”

WHO’S WHO
On September 20, 1933, Mr. and
Mrs. Louie Chappel were blessed
with a little boy. They named this
little bundle Alton.
Alton has attended Fairfield
School all his life except one year
which he spent at Ward Prairie.
During his high school years,
he has held several offices in V. A.
These are sentinel, historian, and
vice president.
Alton lettered one year in foot-
ball and was on the baseball team
three years.
Naturally Alton likes movies.
His favorite stars are Virginia
Mayo and John Wayne.
You can tell by looking that
Alton has his favorite foods. They
are fried chicken and pecan pie.
IVetty good taste, I’d say.
Alton’s future plans are to stay
in Fairfield and work unless
Uncle Sam changes his mind.
Good luck wherever you go!

SUNDAY WORSHIP: We miss
many of our friends who were un-
able to worship with us because
of illness in their homes. We are
praying that this seige of sick-
ness will soon be over so that we
will be able to carry forward the
Lord’s work as we desire. Those
who were able to attend were
grateful that they could and es-
pecially since the Lord has added
five more to our fellowship. They
are: Mr. and Mrs. Forest Wood
and their two children, Forest
Edward, Jr., and Sue. Forest Ed-
ward, Jr., has given his life to
preach the Gospel and we feel
that the Lord will use him in a
great way. They are returning
from Ada, Okla. Also, in the
evening service, Mr. Harvey
Castle moved his letter to our
church from Buffalo in order to
have it with his wife’s. She is the
former Miss Darlene Emmons.
He is entering the armed services.
Prayer Meeting- Last Friday
evening we had our first Friday
evening prayer service (the
change being made from Wednes-
day night to FYiday due to Bro-
Sanderford being in school) and
there was an excellent attendance.
In fact it was a little larger than
the number on Wednesday. We
are grateful that God is laying
it on the hearts of our people to
this Hour of Power with their
presence and prayers.
Special Notice: We are having
our piayer service this Friday
evening at 6:30 P. M. in order
that we may be a part of the pro-
gram being conducted at the
school in the interest of the March

Progress on the Census: We
wish to express our appreciation
to all who have worked so faith-
fully to complete our religious
census, it i* almost finished as
of now. As soon as it is complet-
ed we will make available to each
•hurch in our town the names of
those who have a preference for
them. W’e are very anxious to see
the interest in the Lord’s work
increasing in all of our churches.
We extend a cordial invitation
'0 each person in Fairfield who
will not be attending some other
service to be- preaent with u? n
each and every- service of our
church. More and more we are
longing to sec others come to gain
the strength that alone can come
from God We would like to have
an opportunity to help you and be-
friend you in any way we are able
to. Come With Us and We will
! Do Thee Good.
