The Baptist church will in the near
future build Sunday school accommodations
to the church. The addition
will be in the form of a long building
crossing the rear of the present house,
making a "T" shaped structure. The
Sunday school annex will likely contain
six rooms. Under the leadership
of the Rev. B. S. Funderburg this
church has always been a power for
good in the community, and is doing
more and better work each year.
Quite a good deal of excitement
was caused yesterday morning among
the Order of the Sons of Rest when
Clarence Catoe was caught digging a

The order went into executive session
! at once and Clarence is now under suspended
sentence with the definite
promise that he will not engage in
any work for the remainder of 19Id.
