Aveleigh Inaugurates Season of Evangelism Aveleigh is in full swing of the Evangelistic season being observed by all the southern Presbyterian churches. Beginning February 11th, Aveleigth congregations have been un usually large for the winter season and inclement weather. An evangel istic program has been outlined by the Session and adopted by the con gregation. The Diaconate has been unusually active in recent weeks pre paring for the annual .Every Member Canvass. Four special meetings have been held in planning the new year’s budget and others are on schedule for near future. Two of these meetings have been dinner-occasions, one at the home of chairman, A. T. Neely, and the other at the Manse. On Sunday, February 11th, the congregation was asked to pledge it self to regular church attendance for at least 9 weeks, and a whole-heart ed response was bad. Daily Bible reading, regular congregational visit ation, prayer, general church loyalty and cooperation are parts of the program. The choir plans special contributions to the worship program each Sunday, including the purchase of new hymnals for the church. Last Sunday 10 people, representing as many departments of the church program, stood and pledged loyalty and cooperation for their group dur ing the season.

Shealy Motor Co. Newberry, S. C. - Prosperity, S. C. Phe SgatAnCLEARANCE SPECIALS MATERNAL DEATHS ARE CUT Columbia, Feb. 17.—Four years ago, the maternal and child health division of the state board of health began a statewide program to make motherhood safe in South Carolina. The urgent need for such a program was evidenced by the fact that more than 300 maternal deaths were oc- curing in the state each year. And added to this distressing toll were more than 2,000 babies born dead and more than 3,000 who died before reaching one year of age. Most of these deaths were preven table. Practically all of them could have been avoided with proper prenatal, postnatal and infant care. Specific causes of these preventable deaths would require a long and technical list, but fundamentally all of them could be attributed to two general causes: ignorance and neglect. In attempting, therefore, to re duce the high maternal and infant death rates it was neccessary to deal primarily with ignorance, poverty and superstition. Accordingly, the MCH program started with and still continues the following basic fea tures: intensive educational activities and demonstrations through actual service; establishment of free prena tal and well-baby clinics in every county in the state, clinics to which every indigent expectant mother and every indigent child can go for examination and medical advice—eli- minition of superstition and incompe tency in the practice of midwifery by elimination from such practice of an old negro midwives and substitution of others who are young and well trained. As a result, there are today only 2,000 registered midwives in South Carolina as compared to 6,000 ten years ago. The fact that about 45 per cent of all deliveries in South Carolina were and still are, attended solely by mid wives made it imperative that the practice of midwifery be brought un der the supervision and control of the State board of health. Conse quently, all midwives now are requir ed to register annually with county health departments, where they are issued certificates of registration. They are required to attend monthly classes conducted by field or county nurses and to attend certain one-day institutes. A two weeks course is re quired of each new midwife and four such Institutions are conducted an nually by the state board of health.

Shealy has announced that he will be in the race for county supervisor and with the announce ment has named as -his campaign manager a brand new bouncing boy, S. W., Jr. While the new manager is likely to take “S. W.” far, far into the night sometimes it will be noth ing new for him for it is said that two years ago he campaigned often until daybreak. A new broom sweeps clean and S. W. expects to sweep the field with this new manager. Mr. Shealy is the father of 10 children, four of whom are boys but this is the first one to bear the name of Junior. were nominated for ordination and in stallation at an early date. Names of recently received new members will be announced soon. A second congregational meeting will soon be announced for consideration and adopting the church budget. During this season, church attendants are registering their names with a reg istration committee as they enter church. The pastor, Rev. C. A. Cal- cote, is bringing brief, evangelistic messages and dismissing the congre gation in time for hand-shaking and fellowship before going home. To date, no finer spirit of loyalty and cooperation has been felt in the church, and with the unusual attend ance, a great season of revival seems to be in store for Aveleigh. The ser vices begin at 11:26 with organ pre lude. Last Sunday, Rev. C. A. Oalcote, pastor of Aveleigh, spoke to his peo ple on, the subject of “Everlasting Team Work,” using as his text the singrular statement made of Gideon's 300 men at work for God, “And every man stood in his place.” He stated that the 32 thousand men of Gideon’s army was resentative of the church army, out of which only a small por tion could be counted on to “wear church harness” for God. Twenty-two thousand of Gideon’s men went home in invitation to go if they didn’t care to fight for God, representing the 2-3 of church memberships today which cannot be counted on. God does His work through His leaders who lead His people heroically, it was stated and through followers who are will ing to put the Christian fight first instead of secondary interests. It was pointed out further that these 22 thousand men going home, afraid of the fight, were not necessarily bad men, but just “spineless men,” afraid of difficulty, inconvenience and sacri fice for the Lord. Not mean men, but men who missed the plaudit, “Well done!” Not fragrantly sinful men, just useless men, who being like the Lord’s fig tree, will be finally cursed for lack of fruit-bearing. Concluding the pastor stated that the angelic hosts must have chanted the Doxo- logy over a second time when God saw “every man standing his place.” That 300 loyal soldiers willing to play the game “follow the leader” to get God’s work done, and be counted among Heaven’s faithful — every church member in his own place!
