C., in May to give the women 'equal rights' with the men in the church. It is not stated how many sign'ers it got here-probably not many?'' Why ? Maybe the Methodist wo men in Newberry believe that the Apostle Paul in his first epistle to the Corinthians was right when he said (14:34-35): ''Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted nto them to speak; but they are commanded to be un der obedience, as also saith the law. And if they will learn anything, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.'' WANTED.-A young lady or young man to do office work.
