II SAVE AND SUCCEED
Texas, July 23.— More
than $191.00 was realized in a Thrift
Social given here by the Ladies’ Aid
Society of the First Christian Church.
Every person subscribed for at least
one Thrift stamp to this fund, whWz
will be used as the nucleus toward
securing a parsonage. Patriotic mu-
sic and readings formed an impor-
tant part of the program Unique
ways in which the money to buy
thirft stamps had been earned were
also told The social was such a suc-
cess that it was decided to make it
a regular affair the first Monday in
each mo nt Ii.
The various Sunday School clas-
ses of this church are also saving
for the parsonage fund by incesting
in thrift and war savings stamps
Thus the money is kept al work,
earning interest, while it is unused.
