and Mrs. Collier of Eastern Star Baptist Church, Mrs. Mary Coleman of the Eastside Better Business and Civic League and others. In closing I would like to leave these words for thought which came to me from a message delivered by Rev. Stephen Wells, ' pastor of Corinthian Baptist! Church Sunday morning: “In 1962 let’s not make excuses for ourselves but make excuses for others.” Rev. Wells said that this attitude should be illustrated in church and organization work. Jacquej. Sneed is doing a fine job as choir director and organist at Corinthian, j To my surprise, Miss Mary Elaine Wells, the pastor’s daugh-1 ter, can really sing. She closed the service with a touching number. Mrs. Nina Thomas informed me that the new usher uniforms I were purchased in November. Hav- | ing served as president, super-, visor, instructor and organizing 1 13 usher units, I am sincerely interested in the work and certainly watched the moves of all ushers— some knew it, } think. Monday, Jan. 8, members and guests of the Eastside Better Business and Civic League will be entertained by Mrs. Beatrice Holifield, 142 W. 43rd at 7:45 p.m. A fine speaker has been chosen for installation services. This will mark your scribe’s 25th year as president and Mrs. Viola Mills, financial secretary’s, 27th year. Friends are invited.
