Baptist Church
The Sunday School begins prompt-
ly at 9:45. The officers and teachers
will be present ahead of time to
greet their pupils and new pupils.
With the coming of fall we plan an
enlargement in every phase of Sunday
School work, both in renewed interest
and increased attendance. All Baptist
people and those who prefer the Bap-
tist Sunday School are cordially urg-
ed to come and do your part in this
great work, without which the com-
munity would suffer immeasurably.
Teachers and officers of the Sun-
day School meet regularly on Wed-
nesday night and have a soulful dis-
cussion of the lesson and are thereby
much better fitted to teach its out-
standing and practical lessons. If
you have no Sunday School home we
cordially invite you to come next Sun.
day.
The pastor is assisting this week
the pastor and church at Klondike in
their revival meeting. The spirit and
prospects of the meeting are en-
couraging and some are giving their
lives to the Savior. The prayers of
all are desired that this may be a
great revival and glorify Christ.
Sunday morning the pastor will be
in his pulpit at which time we hope
to have a great service with every
member of the church present, to get
a vision of great opportunities that
lie at our doors. Further announce-
ments concerning the evening services
will be made.
Visitors, strangers, and the public
cordially invited to every service of
the church. Those attending the
Teachers Institute are especially in-
vited.
J. A. KIDD, Pastor.

Presbyterian Church
After having spent the most stren-
uous summer 1 have ever lived
through, 1 am, without any rest or
vacation, ready to fill my post of duty
and service again next Sunday, and I
hope to meet many others in their
pews with that glad hand of greet-
ing. Now is the time to gird up our
loins and lay prayerfully our plans
for the best and largest of which we
are capable.
We call upon every member of our
churches both in Cooper and Lake
Creek to consecrate his life anew to
the Lord. If the fires have burned
low upoo the altar of our private
devotions, shall we not come with
humble prayer for ourselves and for
one another and lay upon the altar the
fuel which God has provided?
The pastor comes to you with zeal
and determination by the grace of
God to give to the church and Christ’s
causes in general his best. He wishes
every member to bear him up in your
prayers and sympathetically cooperate
Fir»t Methodist Church
_ IS KILLED IN
(W. S. DABNEY, Pastor.)
Last week I mentioned the fact that j
only about one-third of the popula- |
tion of Cooper attended church any- '
where on Sundays. Now us to the
cause of this effect.
In one word it is the lack of con-
version or regeneration. I read in
Romans 8:9, “Now if any man have
not the spirit of Christ, he is none of
His.” We need the spirit of Christ—
the spirit of Christ to guide our
thought, cur words, our acts. The
spirit o' Christ to teach us to act,
and act bravely in the defense of
every evidence of the devil’s work, and
then the spirit of Christ to forgive—
even those who have not the spirit of
Christ, and have acted contrary to
the spirit of God.
We need a sort of new perception of
what Christ would do if he walked
down the streets of Cooper today.
How would He use His automobile
and how would He regard the various
amusements and pleasures that so en.
gross our lives on the Sabbath?
Would He go to church and Sunday
School, or would He use it as a day in
which to rest by engaging in those
things that make it necessary for
others to work on the Sabbath in
order that we might do them. If He
were a garage owner, or a keeper
of a gasoline station, would He keep
it open on Sundays just because some-
ope else did and He would lose a few
dollars? Isn’t .that serving dollars
instead of God? Would He keep his
drug store open on Sundays just be-

The Gideons
The Gideons of the First Metho-
dist Church continue to grow in num-
ber and interest, there being a twenty,
five percent increase in attendance last
Sunday over the preceding Sunday,
and all showed a lively interest in the
class activities.
This class is under the direction of
Rev. Dabney and he gives short lec-
tures, after which the members dis-
cuss the lesson in their own words
and express their own thoughts as
they see them.
There is a membership campaign
flow being engaged in, Dow Stockton
and Jess Pugsley being the leaders
of the two divisions ofthe class, and
at the close of the campaign the los-
ing side will treat the winner's to a
banquet or some other form of en-
tertainment to be announced later.
The Stocktonites started with a lead
of 25 points last Sunday, but this
was only the beginning and the bat-
tle promises to be a warm one be-
fore the campaign is over.
All young men not. in Sunday Selvol
are urged to come and assured tHt
they will receive a warm welcome r I
profit by the lesson.
Junior Bible Club
The Junior Bible Club had their
first meeting of the club year with
Mrs. Winston Fly as hostess last Fri-
day afternoon. Sixteen members an-
swered to roll call.
Mrs. Ed Adair was the leader for
the afternoon, a portion of the New
Testament being used for the lesson.
Mrs. Cleveland Ratliff, who fosters
the club, gave an excellent paper on
Texas Art.
For refreshment a salad course was
served.

Oh, how we need an applied Gospel.
We know the verbal part of it.
We invite you to the Methodist
Church where you will hear an ap-
plied Gospel.
(Clarksville Times.)
J. T. Phillips, aged seventy, well
known Red River County citizen, who
was the Democratic nominee for jus-
tice of the peace at Detroit, and a
negro boy about seventeen years old,
son of Will Fulbright, were killed in
two accidents which occurred within
an hour of each other Thursday aft-
ernoon, near Detroit.
Mr. Phillips’ neck was broken when
his team ran away and he was thrown
under one of the wheels. The ac-
cident occurred between Bagwell nd
the sawmill, where he had gotten a
load of lumber. He was killed in-
stantly.
The other fatility happened about
an hour earlier. The boy was driving
home north of Detroit in a car "n
which his father and two negro wo-
men were riding, and he was killed
when he lost control of the car and
it went into the ditch. One of tne
women was badly hurt, but not fatally
it is believed. The other two occu-
pants escaped.
T. E. L. CLASS
Mrs. W. W. Robinson, assisted by
Mrs. J. K. Gibson and Mrs Ed Mar-
tin, was hostess to the T. E. L. Class
Wednesday afternoon for the monthly
business and social meeting. Seven-
teen members answered to roll call
and piiid their monthly dues. The
treasurer’s report was read which
shows a balance of $96.60 in the bank.
The personal service report for Aug-
| ust was:
Sick visits, 7; trays, 9; kind deeds,
1; flowers, 2; garments to poor, 15.
The picnic was postponed until fur-
ther notice. After a short business
session the meeting adjourned for the
social period. The hostesses served
a delicious cream course.

THAT NEW STATE
ROADTOLADONIA
(Commerce Journal)
The recent opening of the road
through from Wolfe City to Ladonia
gives a connection through Hunt
county of importance beyond, the
realization of the people who have
only casually noted the fact that this
road was being opened.
Hunt county officials and Com-
mercial interests along with Wolf©
City Merchants and the Chamber of
Commerce, have labored to bring thjs^
road in as a state highway with most
active aid and leadership by Ladonia
and Honey Grovecifizen*.
A meeting was called at Honey
Grove Wednesday to discuss glans
for carrying this road into Oklaho-
ma and the building of an interstate
bridge across Red River in carrying
forward this project. ■.
