New Studies
The Methodist Woman's Society
of Christian Servicc will open it's
study of "We Americans, North and
South" with a Mexican luncheon,
Wednesday morning, January 30th,
at 11:00 o'clock, in Fellowship Hall

Latin Ameriian countries will lie

TRUE TO LIFE
Posing the farmer and his col-
lege age son for a picture, the pho-
tographer suggested that the hoy
were drawn'stand with his hand on his fath-
er's shoulder. r
"If you want it to look natural,"
said the long-suffering, parent,"he
could put his hand in my pocket."
Miss Roberson suggests that those
having difficulty in seeing to
thread needles should try small
sizes of the crewel type for ordin-
ary sewing. The long-eye will be
easier to thread, she points out.
The only bad feature is its fragi-
lity over other types. The long eye
makes for easier breaking at the
eye's end.
Today's Thought. . .
Ity I'OKD A. EI.LIS
Sponsored by Christian Church
"Every one of you" is the per-
sonal response of Peter to those
who asked the question, "What
must we do"? Such a reply seems
to be antiquated in this day of
growing statism and a totalitarian
church. Individual values appear to
be on the decline in influence and
recognitian. The blue-prints and
plannings of appointed or self-ap-
pointed leaders are in terms of the
mass. More and more the individual
is looking to the government for
economical security. In the realm of
religion the trend is for the indi-
vidual to place his trust in a co-
lossal ecclesiasticism.
The trend in so-called big busi-
ness is for the individual to be
submerged in the over-all opera-
tion. In a recent issue of a popu-
lar magazine nnder the caption,
'The Wife.Problem", even the wife,
yes, and children, arc to be synch-
ronized into the • business. Head of
one corporation says, "If a man's
interest is his wife and family,
more power to him—but we don't
want him."
The Christian faith is primarily
for the individual. A message from
a personal Savior to a person to
redeem him from his own personal
ins. He must travel through the
pearly gates alone. There are soc-
ial implication in the Good news
but it is secondary. A system of
state or church can be no greater
than the individuals who compose
t.hcm.
Jesus said much about the "King-
dom" but delt largely with indivi-
duals. The blind beggar was made
to see, Lazarus was raised from the
grave, paralizcd made to walk, wo-
man at the well personally heard
Him and He asked Peter, "lovest
thou me".
The Master's command, ' Go into
all the world and preach the gos-
pel" and Peter made the applica-
tion in the words, "Every one of
you".

BEST NEEDLES FOR HOME USE
That "needle in the haystack"
might as well stay where it is if it
is not the right size or type for
home sewing.
Nena Roberson, clothing specialist
with the Texas Agricultural Ex-
tension Service, says that needles
should be bought by the size ra-
ther than the set. Packages of as-
sorted needles often include many
coarse ones rarely used In home
sewing, she explains, and as a re-
sult the sewing basket becomes la-
den down with "idlers".
Emergency mending Jobs come up
often, the specialist reminds us. To
be prepared, keep a supply of num-
ber 7 needles on hand for general
e. Sizes 9 and 10 are best for
dress materials and for sewing that
requires delicate stitches. Basting
and sewing on heavy fabrics are
done with more case if sizes 7 or
8 arc used.
"Sharps," "between," and "crewel
or long-eye" are the three types of
needles available to seamstresses.
Sharps are medium length, round-
eyed and arc used most commonly
in home sewing. Between needles
are shorter, generally used for Very
fine sewing. They are too short to
hold comfortably for very long,
however. Crewel or long-eye need-
les are used in embroidering or
darning.
