1 THE COMMUNITY CHURCH NEWS VOL. 1 FRIDAY, AUGUST 17, 1934 STOW, OHIO NO. lib MINISTER'S COLUMN Elderberries are ripe, the golden-rod is in bloom, here and there is a tinted leaf indicative of the stern reality summer is waning, winter comes again. All of Nature prepares for this great change, the bird goes south, the squirrel stows away a food supply, the trees shake themselves of the summer foliage, withholds its sap and sleeps till spring. The sun is slow getting up and goes to bed earlier. And the human race, some providential and diligent a great class will move on through the bleak, cheerless season as peacefully and serenely as the chip-monk in a hollow tree or the robin in the land of flowers. Others, myriads of them, will be cold, poorly fed, nomads, wanderers on the earth cursing God and man. Now, my enlightened brother, come along, time rolls us on, whatever we hope to do in life's little day must be done quickly. To the men of the Community Church, take hold, let us have our best winter, resolve that our richest achievements are before, not behind. Team together, men, two by two by two quietly, no fuss,' no stir, a still hunt for men. Be in earnest, be sincere, get results, let us have fifty men for teacher Phelps to instruct, a mighty worthy teacher is he. Be ashamed of less, buck up, men, now let us have a class. Now our ladies' class, you good women never fail when you purpose to accomplish a task in the church. Why not a goal of fifty women? You hold your teacher in high regard, you are proud of her, then say it with members, two by two by two quietly, systematically every week meeting women of the Stow area, bringing in human sheaves. Young folks class, take the hint, nothing can stop you if you get under way. We need you, can't keep house without you. Organize, systematize, get in step, two by two is the old Bible way. Enroll fifty, it can be done. And the boys, if so minded they can move the whole camp. No tree too tall, no hill to steep. How marvelous the agility of youth. Now boys, contact the other fellow, you chaps are kingdom builders, fall in line go two by two by two for other boys, fifty new ones, that's the count. Can you sing? Come over and help us. My we are proud of that little Mrs. Judy. Help her two by two by two that is the way the seventy worked. Fifty in the choir, just right for a chorus. So now all together. Let us have a church. Come along, everybody gether in all kinds of weather and gether in all kinds of weather and see what can be done. GEO. M. HULME, Minister CHURCH CALENDAR BIBLE SCHOOL Sunday, 9:30 A.

In the garden are beans, beets, broccoli, sugar peas, 2000 tomato plants and between 8 and 10,000 cabbage plants. The fruit crop is a failure except grapes which have been seriously damaged by hail. The farm has 5 head horses, 22 cows, 4 heifers, 50 hogs, 500 chickens and chicks, 20 turkeys an«t not to be forgotten six cats and; eight kittens which are quite valuable around a large barn such as at the County Home.
