Hood Baptists Are
Doing Good Work
By GREGG HOWARD
I worshipped with the saints at
Hood Sunday and certainly en-
joyed the day. They are doing a
splendid work’under the leadership
of Rev. Marvin Leach as pastor.
Fred Bullard is the Sunday school
superintendent, and he is doing a
good job of it. He fs a young man
and new in the work but is taking
hold in a wonderful way. His
brother. Hardy Bullard, is the song
leader and they make a splendid
team. Prof. A. H. Gordon is the
B. T. U. director and has four
good untons under his supervision.
Every phase of the work is on the
upgrade. A campaign is on to raise
money to paint the church house
and make other feded repairs and
almost enoigh monies ate already
in hahd. There is no greater indi-
cation of progress and uccess of
a church than to see them improve
the property.
Sunday afternoon Rev. Leach
and I visited the mission Sunday
school at Reed school house. They
have a good school under the
leadership of W. E. Jones. This
school was organized some months
ago by the Myra church and is
doing a worthy work because
there are some in the community
that would be unable to go else-
