MISS STRAHM DESCRIBES MISSION WORK CAMP STAY “It was a lot of hard work, but it was sure fun,’’ Miss Rosemary Strahm declares when she tells about her month’s stay at the summer work' camp at the Redbird Mission in Kentucky. Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Strahm, 339 .North Ninth street, Miss Strahm was sponsored by Indiana Central College in Indianapolis, where she will be a sophomore in September. Central paid her traveling expenses and room and board while she helped, along with 12 other young people, in the mission’s farm school and church work. Since returning to Decatur, she has shown slides of their mission projects at a Sunday evening service at the Trinity Evangelical United Brethren church and has also spoken to the'WSWS of the Trinity church at its recent meeting. Terming her stay at the church mission during parts of June and July “one of the most gratifying experiences I have ever had.” Miss Strahm describes the projects the seven girls and six boys worked on during that month. Their

main project was a 40 by 200 fopt poultry house for the mission farm, which the boys, helped by the mission farmer, began early in their stay. Later on the girls pitched in when the heaviest work was completed. “On the side,” the girls painted dormitory rooms and the boys helped build an irrigation ditch for the mission farm. On Sunday?, the thirteen circulated among nine local churches, of which the Redbird mission church (the Beverly church) is the center. The young people presented special music and gave talks at the services. 3,4 Miss Strahm, the only student from Indiana Central to take part in the Redbird mission work camp, was chosen after she filled out an application blank, telling, besides giving other information, why she wanted to go. The summer work camp is a part of the “summer volunteer service program,” offered from the church office at Dayton, O. College students help during these summer programs in two of the three E.U.B. church missions, in Kentucky and New Mexico. BAPTIST WMS TO.BEGIN COMFORTER-QUILT PROJECTS Eight members of the Pleasant Mills Baptist church Women’s Missionary society met at the home of Mrs. Richard Young Wednesday evening, deciding during the business meeting to adopt projects including making quilt scraps and knotting a comforter.

The members approved these three projects; cutting out 500 quilting scraps the size of a post card; knotting a comforter for the missionaries, and showing a missionary in Puerto Rico with hankies and a larger gift, from the society as a whole. Mrs. Harry Young, the evening’s guest, won the door prize. Refreshments were served by the hostess, assisted by Mrs. Lowell Noll, and the meeting was closed as the members clasped hands in a friendship circle and repeated the Mizpah benediction.
