The main question with which they were confronted was the conflict in the date set for the Bazaar. They were informed that the School Band Tag Day had been set the same as that for the Ba- zaar, November 13. : The Women decided that since | this date had been chosen some two months ago that they could not change it. The Bazaar will be held at the Chapel, 535 Francis Street, Nobember 13. Family Night Oct. 20 The Women are sponsoring a Family Night dinner each month also and the next one will be next Wednesday, October 20 at 6:30 . mm. This event has proven very popu- lar with the members since it gives them an opportunity to visit and eat together once each month. Each family brings a covered *|dish which is shared with their neighbors, Mrs. Ruth Evans and Mrs. Sally Padgett are in charge of these dinners. Out Door Service The out - door worship service at the Drive-In Theatre which be- gan last Sunday morning was well attended. Mr, James Gamble, Sr., is handling the amplifying system and worshipers can sit in the comfort of their own car and en- joy the music and service in the great out-of-doors. There is something inspirational about an early morning service which seems lacking in the servic- es later in the day. These services begin at 8:45 a. m. each Sunday morning and this Sun- day the Rev, Rogers will preach on “Science and Religion.” Youth Activities Mr. and Mrs, John Padgett are Proving popular with the young People as their adult advisors. They have already had one picnic this fall and plan some such af- fair each month.

This group meets each Sunday evening at 6:30 P. m, Sunday morning at ten o’clock Mr. Ralph Noble will have charge of the Sunday School at 535 Fran- cis Street. He has been exceeding- ly fortunate the last few Sundays without a single teacher absent. His attendance is running slightly above a year ago. He is anxious that any children without a church home take advantage of this reli- gious training program. Eleven O'Clock Service The morning worship service will begin at 11 a.m. Mrs. Tich- enor will be at the piano and spe- cial music has been arranged.

Chureh of Rock Bazaar Set For November 13 British Judge Hopes They Have Dogs In Heaven LONDON ® — Do dogs go to heaven? A British judge says he thinks they do—but if they don’t he won’t want to stay there. Judge Tudor Rees gave the opin- ion yesterday in hearing a claim for damage against Mrs. Lucy Prosser, former tenant of a house in suburban Banstead. Mrs. Prosser said she bred dogs, but after complaints from her neighbors she agreed not to let them in her house. “But that is like shutting out a member of the family,” said Judge Rees. “What is the use of having such a faithful friend if you cannot have him in the house.” “Tf unswerving fidelity and un- failing affection are passports to paradise all dogs will have hon- ored places there,” he added. “And if I do not find dogs in paradise, it will not be paradise for me and I shall probably apply for a transfer to the other place.” The judge found Mrs. Prosser responsible for the damage to the house but added: “I do not blame the dogs.” FLOODS IN INDONESIA Recece ae -t o” JAKARTA, Indonesia (®—Eleven people drowned in southwest Bor- neo when the Ambawang River overflowed after a heavy rain, flooding three villages, reports reaching here today said. Rogers will give the sermon and he has chosen for his topic “The Scanning Scientist.” The people of each and every age feel that they have reached the pinacle of knowledge and ex- perience only to find that they have only scratched the surface. Luke was an exception and while he was the “beloved Physician” he did have an open scientifie mind ! and discovered something in the religion preached by. the Apostle Paul that he could not explain scientifically. Visitors and service families will always find a friendly and cordial welcome at the services offf the Church of the Rock. POINCIANA BAPTIST SUNDAY SCHOOL, 9:45 A.M.
