The Paxville Methodist missionary
society was held on Wednesday after
noon, the 6th, at the home of Mrs. T.
W. Gunter. The president, Miss Jes
sie Curtis, presided over the meet
ing. Miss Leatha Edmunds very beau
i ifully presented the Bible lesson,
"The Challenge at a Time of Great
Prosperity and Possibility." It was
the study of the'story of Solomon's re
ceiving and availing himself of God's
wonderful challenge, "Ask what I
shall give thee," with its implied as
surance that his desire would be
granted. Like Solomon, we are com
manded to ask. God has no favorite,
and he is still eager to bestow upon
his needy servants the fullness of his
gifts.
Mrs. W. R. Keels, our faithful treas
urer is doing the best work in the
history of the society. The work is go
ing steadily on notwithstanding the
claims of war. New responsibilities
will not hinder the fulfilment of form
er claims and obligations, and the wo

in the form of a quiz which proved
real interesting. - I hesitate to men

was presented by our leader: "Can
anybody present give the name of the
first missionary sent out by American
Methodism in 1819? What country
did he go to?" Mrs. Hattie Durant l
thinks she answered correctly. We are
waiting for a positive correct state

a social half hour was enjoyed, dur
ing which the hostess served apples
and nuts.
The next meeting will be held at
the home of Mrs. Henry Curtis, the I

the request before her death that the
following anthems be sung at her fun

'Leaning on the Everlasting Arms."
