J. W. Rives, Pastor
The pastor and his family wish
to thank all who had a part in the
lovely pounding that was given us
this last week. The many good
things were deeply appreciated and
the spirit in which they were given
does our heart good.
The prospect for a good work are
encouraging. The attendance Sun-
day was good in spite of sickness
on every hand. We hope to seP the
attendance grow and efforts in-
creased to bring His Kingdom into
the hearts of men.
Our District Convention meets
with the First Baptist Church in
Houston on Feb. 18-19. Let us pray
for a great convention.
We feel that prayer is essential
to the spiritual welfare of any in-
dividual and any church. A great
number were in attendance last
Wednesday evening for the Prayer
Service. Let’s keep the good work
up.
FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
Rev. Roht. M. McGehee, D. D. Pastor
“There is no other way by which
a man can make what is best in
himself such a wide and permanent
influence for good in his edmmun-
ity as by throwing himself heartily
and vigorously into church work. To
be an outside saint is better than
nothing, but the best position is to
be an inside laborer in the life of
the church, thus helping to develop
the finest character and bestowing
the greatest blessings on mankind.
A man is never more safe or more
happy, never more useful, than
when he has associated himself
with the composite life in the spirit
which the church provides. ‘Come
thou with us and we will do thee
good and thou shalt be to us in-
stead of eyes’.”—Oliver Wendell
Holmes.
The Baptist iW. M. S. will meet
at the Church Thursday afternoon
at 3 o’clock for Missionary program
and social. We urge all our womer
:o be present and receive informa
tion about the work we are striving
to do and enjoy the fellowship hou‘
wdth us.—Reporter-.

Lawrence M. Greenhaw, Pastor
Amid the Tides and Currents,
This Church Moves, Declaring
That God Is With Men.
Monday night was "Work Night”
at the Church as a group of the
workers came and with paint and
brush, and upnoistery materials,
renovated some of the furniture.
Those working were Mrs. Muriel
G. Fox, Miss Martha Jean Koontz.
Mr. and Mrs. Walter Milam and
family, and Mr. and Mrs. Ted
Fields. Buster White gave two nice
pieces of furniture during the week
and later came and helped in some
painting about the interior of the

Hardy E. Ross
(
Now on Display
In Our Showroom
Funeral services were held Tues-
I day aftenoon at the cemetery at
Rosenberg for Mr. Hardy E. Ross,
conducted by Rev. L. W. Couch, of
| this city.
Mr. Ross passed away Sunday,
I Feb. 10 in the Caney Valley hos-
I pital at Wharton, after an illness
I of three weeks. He was born Sept.
8, 1877 at Corsicana, Texas. In
1895 he was married to Martha
Jane Brumbelow, who preceded him
in death several years ago. To this
union seven children were born,
five of whom are living, namely,
James Hardy Ross, Palacios; Mrs.
W. G. Taylor, Corpus Christi; Mrs.
Clyde Bell, Cotulla; Mrs. C. F.
Humphries, Corpus Christi, and
Mrs. P. F. Pool, Yuma, Ariz. He is
also survived by nine grand child-
| ren and two great-grandchildren.
Mr. Ross became a member of the
Baptist Church in his early life
and was loyal to his chuch and its
teachings.
A really cosmopolitan group
heard Rev. H. B. Goodenough Sun-
day morning and the pastor in the
evening. There were visitors from
half a dozen states. It reminded us
of early Camp Hulen days.
Again we call attention to the
coming Layman’s Day and Lay-
man’s week February 24, to March
1. At the evening service February
24, the Laymen will be in entire
charge. Local laymen will speak,
fill the choir, and present a num-
ber of special musical numbers. The
pastor will usher, and in genera!
get the viewpoint of the layman out
n the audience.

Dear Bro. (McGehee: u'ciwuimx ui me luamnnc pro
Although you do not know me I ,em- considered serious by vari«
you have written me several let-1 Govet-nment. agencies, _wa* ai
ters, including them with Miss nnunccd recently...
Wades and Mrs. McFarland's de-
fense service letters. At that time
I was T/Sgt. Moore, but as you
see now I am Mister which I like
lots better, and am enjoying very
much at present.
I want to take this opportunity
to thank the Presbyterian Church
of Palacios for its many encourag-
ing letters during the pust five
years. They went to many parts of
the world. They first came to me
in California, then to England
France, Belguim, then across to
the other side of the world to the
Philippine Islands and at last here
Words cannot express my appre-
ciation for the comfort these let-
ters brought during the dark days
of last winter. Above all I want to
thank Miss Wade and Mrs. McFar-
alnd for their part in seeing that
the letters were sent.
Again I want to thank you and
if you wish to write me, you may
reach me at the following address:
Yours for Christ and the Church,
