By MRS. EDNA BEST CRAWFORD
PRICE $1.50
A handsomely bound book of 200 pages, illustrated, com-
prising a number of short stories and articles.
Almost without exception, every story in the book has
previously been published.
The Author has been a regular contributor to Baptist
periodicals for more than 20 years.
The Author has the unique distinction of being the
first writer to weave Palacios, the home of the B. Y. P. U.
Encampment, and many of its attendants, into an appeal-
ing story.
Read "Beyond The Desert," it is well worth the price
of the entire book.

B. Y. P. U.
A dramatic presentation of the
"Great Commission" rendered by the
Gardner Senior B. Y. P. U. of which
Mrs. J. E. Leigh is President, featur-
ed the Encampment B. Y. P. U. pro-
grams held Sunday night. There
were ten Unions representing every
B. Y. P. U. department from Primary
to Adult, and the attendance reached
a total of 680. The report by Unions
is as follows:
"Better Your Previous Undertak-
ings" is the new B. Y. P. U. motto
suggested by Franklin Buckner.
D.V.B.S.
Mrs. Hans Busch of Houston, has
a class of 33 men and women study-
ing Dr. Homer L. Grice's book on the
Daily Vacation Bible School. This
is the second time this work has been
offered at Palacios and Mrs. Busch
is the best teacher in Texas for this
course. She was principal of a very
successful D. V. B. S. in the So. Main
Baptist' Church, of Houston, just be-
fore coming to Palacios. Some of
the handwork which was made in this
school will be on display Thursday P.
M. in the Main Auditorium immedi-
ately after the extra class session.
—Mrs. Robert Blair.

NOTICE

The women are unusually fortun-
ate this year in having with them
ivirs. j . jdi. Leigh, who is conducting
W. M. U. Conferences after each of
the regular classes. Mrs. Leigh is
Corresponding Secretary of the State
Organization of W. M. U. Work.
Forty years ago next year the W.

the following:
40,000 increase in active members
in the South.
40% increase in organization.
40 Million Dollars increase in fi-
nances.
This inded is a worthy ambition
and with noble women like Mrs. Leigh
and others the aim should and shall
be realized.
Mrs. Hans Busch and Mrs. Dot-
son, teachers in the W. M. U. faculty
both report the best organization in
years and a very substantial increase
in the classes.
—Mrs. Robert Blair.
Patronize the advertisers.

Point Record System may be red tape,
but tape makes a good draw string."
People are divided into three (3)
Classes:
WISH BONES—Wishers
JAW BONES—Talkers.
BACK BONES—Back Bone of
Church.
To What Class Do You Belong?
THE BABY DID TALK
Small Girl: "Why doesn't baby
talk, father?"
Father: "He can't talk yet dear.
Young babies never do."
Small Girl: "Oh yess they do, Job
Did. Nurse read to me just the other
day out of the Bible how Job cursed
the day he was born."
A NARROW ESCAPE
The Superintendent of a western
railway had issued strict orders in-
structing station masters along the
line to report all accidents or near
accidents immediately. The very next
day he received the following tele-
gram:
"Supt. Office:—Man fell from plat-
form in front of speeding engine. Will
wire details later."
Five minutes ticked by, then:
Supt. Office:—Everything O. K.,
nobody hurt. Engine was going back-
wards."
"Mosc, I am sorry to hear that you
buried your wife last week."
"Yassuh, boss, I jus' had to—she
was daid."
"Mary," inquired the mistress sus-
piciously, "did you wash this fish care-
fully before you baked it?"
"Heavens, Ma'am", replied Mary,
"What's the use of washin' a fish
that's lived in water all it's life?"
HA! HA!
Tiz Three o'clock in the morning.
Eight handsome young men left
the grounds for an extended fishing
trip to the bay. Yes they all got back
and the fish they did catch. Well
ask Prof. Reynolds or Rev. Eastham
or so and so, etc.
Bro. McKnight escaped a serious
accident, very nearly go (Sea Sick.)
