CHRISTIAN SCIENCE SERVICE
Christian Science service will be
held at 10 o'clock Sunday morning
at 605 First Street. The public is
cordially invited to attend.
“Reality” is the subject of the
Lesson-Sermon which will be read
in all Churches of Christ, Scientist,
on Sunday, September 26.
The Golden Text is: “The things
which are seen are temporal; but
the things which are not seen are
eternal” (II Corinthians 4:18).
Among the citations which com-
prise the Lesson-Sermon is the
following from the Bibble: “For
of him, and through him, and to
him, are all things: to whom be
glory for ever” (Romans 11:36).
The Lesson-Sermon also includes
the following passage from the
Christian Science textbook, “Science
and Health with Key to the Scrip-
tures” by Mary Baker Eddy: “The
Scriptures imply that God is All-
in-all. From this it follows that
nothing possesses reality nor ex-
istence except the divine Mind
and His ideas” (page 331).

here’s nothing quite as friendly and neighborly as a
“back-fence chat.” And that pretty well describes the
way things are here in Palacios. The friendly way in
which the merchants do business and the cheery greet-
ings from the people you meet on the street makes
Palacios one of the best. That’s the story, Neighbor.
. . . we’ve got a great place in which to live, trade,
and do business.

Hunt Are Married
In Home Ceremony
Miss Eva Woodson, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. R. R. Woodson of
Midfield, became the bride of Arl
Hunt, son of Mr. and Mrs. John
Hunt of this city, Sunday, Septem-
ber 19th, at 3:00 p.m. at the home
of the groom’s parents.
G. A. Halliday performed the
double-ring ceremony.
The bride wore an eggplant
crepe dress with black accessories.
Her corsage was of white asters
and she carried a white linen hand-
kerchief given to her by her matron
of honor.
Mrs. Raymond Hamlin was the
bride’s matron of honor, and Mr.
Irvin Hebei served his nephew as
best man.
After the reception, which fol-
lowed the ceremony, at the home
of the groom’s parents the couple
left on their wedding trip to San
Antonio, Austin, New Braunfels,
and San Marcos.
After the trip the couple will
make their home in Palacios.

One of the big joys of "cooking with gas” is
that I can choose the exact split-degree of heat I
want with a flick of my finger. There’s no skimpy
"low-medium-high” limitation on gas burners,
I can keep the soup pot at a slow simmer all
day—or pan-broil a steak in a matter of minutes.
And what a difference in flavor when you can
choose just the right degree of heat for each dish!
I can poach eggs temptingly tender over a pin-
point flame; or I can fry foods quickly to a
delicious crispness with full-flame heat. Every-
thing cooks better, looks better and tastes better
when it’s cooked with gas.
And the new gas ranges are fully automatic.
They have every feature any automatic range offers,
PLUS the extra advantages only GAS can give.
If everyone knew what I know about automatic
gas cookery—they’d agree that—from any angle—
Qas Has Qot It!
See the New Automatic Gas Ranges at your
dealer's today! Look for the “CP" Seal—your
assurance of certified performance.

Again this week the Youth Group
proved itself as one of the Top
Notch groups of the Conference in
several activities in which they
participated. On Sunday afternoon,
nineteen of them drove to Mark-
ham and gave a program as well-
planned and as spiritual as we
have seen in a long time. There
was no touch of the amateur in the
explanations of the work of the
commissions and in the group sing-
ing in which all participated. Miss
Carolyn Bates was in charge, and
with the help of Jeanette Beard,
Robert Stewart, Jack Harris, Ken-
neth Rampmeier and Lurlean Sikes,
and the entire group in the “sing-
spiration” service, such a spiritual
impact was made that on the fol-
lowing night at Ganado, the Mark-
ham group nearly filled two benches
with their delegation at their first
Sub-District meeting. The Palacios
group again was larger than any
other group at the Sub-District.
So much so that one of the leaders
of one of the larger churches asked
the question: “How do you people
at Palacios so consistently keep
up such a program as you do?”
Those furnishing cars for these
two meetings were: Charles Wil-
son, Jack Partain, D. U. Sikes,
Kenneth Rampmeier, Phillip Man-
ning and Lawrence Greenhaw.
The Choir continues to maintain
a wonderful loyalty in the mid-
week meetings on each Wednesday
evening at 7 o’clock.
Next Sunday morning the Church
School year will close with a Pro-
motion Day program at the 10
o’clock morning worship period.
Mrs. J. J. Harbbison, Department
Superintendent, and the staff of
teachers will direct the children
in this program. The following
Sunday will be Rally Day, in the
initiation of the new Church School
Year. Mrs. G. A. Salsbury is taking
over the Home Department which
is for “shut-ins,” or those physical-
ly unable to attend any of the
church services. Norval Sells is
Mrs. Ray Phillips most gra-
ciously welcomed the ladies of the
Methodist Church to her new home
last Thursday afternoon. The guests
registered on entering and all en
joyed going through the house
which has been recently redec-
orated.
Mesdames Gleen Claybourne,
John Pennington, Walter Milam,
Tom Friery were eo-hostesses for
this monthly social meeting.
Mesdames Harbison and Huffman
had charge of the games and lots
of fun was had while each guest
tried for a perfect paper.
Later on the hostesses asked
their guests into the dining room
where a lace-covered table held
trays of dainty and delicious sand-
wiches, cookies and iced fruit
punch.
The visitors and members all
voted this a very enjoyable after-
the general superintendent of the
school.
The Woman’s Society meets this
week, at 3 p.m. on Thursday, at
the Church with Mrs. D. H. Stewart
in charge of the study.
Mrs. Will Hoffman, of Okla-
homa City, who has been visiting,
with Mrs. H. C. Boyd, left Tuesday
afternoon for her home.
Mrs. J. S. Stevenson, of Johnson
City came in last week for a visit
with her son and wife Mr. and
Mrs. L. L. Stevenson and to make
the acquaintance of her new grand-
son.
W. P. Regan, Jr., Ward Cook and
Alton Queen were in San Antonio
last week-end viewing the new
1949 Kaiser and Frazer cars.
Messrs. Regan and Cook also took
in a Shriner’s meeting.
