THE MAN WHO SAVES TODAY PROVIDES FOR TOMORROW
Here is a Sure, Easy Way to Get
bo « on
j The Xmas Money You Will Need j
<x> It is hard to be broke at Christmas. nn
A Christmas without money is like June without
sunshine. , , .
Somehow it chills us and leaves the day that is joyous
and cheery for others empty and without warmth or
pleasure for us.
Join Our Christmas Savings
Club, Which is NOW OPEN
And make sure your Christmas money.
RtAD HOW SIMPLE AND EASY IT IS
You can do either of six things you wish.
Join Class No. 2 and pay 2 cents the first week, 4
cents the second week, 6 cents the third week, and so on
for 50 weeks. Then at the end of 50 weeks we will pay
you $25.50.
Or join Class No. 5 and pay 5 cents the first week, 10
cents the second week, 15 cents the third week, and so on
for 50 weeks. Then at the end of 50 weeks we will pay
you $63.75. . . . , .
Or, if you wish, you may begin paying the biggest
payments, and pay less each week.
Still again, you may join both classes, beginning with
the lowest payments on one and the highest on the other.
Or join Class 50 and pay 50c each week, or join class 100
and pay $1.00 each week.
Let every member of the family join one or another
of the Clubs.
YOU CAN JOIN RIGHT NOW.
Call and let us tell you about our plans.

The Township Sunday School
Convention
The Township Sunday school
convention, held at v Pleasant
Valley school house Sunday, Oct.
29th. was largely atfended. The
house was literally packed and
many failed to gain admittance.
This part of the county has ^a
strong township organization,
ranking at least second best
among the township organiza-
tions of the county.
The program published in The
Clipper two weeks ago. was fol-
lowed as far as was possible, al-
though some whose names were
on the program were unable to
attend. Aside from the talks, as
announced in the printed pro-
gram, was an interesting and in-
spiring talk on "Soul-Saving,"
by Mrs. Lynch, and an enlight-
ening talk' on "Mission Work,"
bv Mrs. .1. T. McCaleb. The talk
by the county president, Mr. L.
A. Ferrcl, was much enjoyed, as
were also the two vocal solos
b\ Mrs. Agnes Dunlap. When
.\irs. Dunlap sings, she stirs the
souls of folks. There's a message
in every* one of her songs.
The president of the Town-
.sliip organization, Clias. Good-
pasture, is to be highly coin
mended for the able manner in
which he handled the work^lt
was a good convention. **
