APPRECIATION TO FIRE DEPARTMENT In spite of the intense cold and show-covered streets the Fire Department responded immediately to the call when our house. caught fire early this morning.

We are sincerely grateful for the splendid protection the town has along this line which could not have been better demonstrated than on this occasion. -Mr.

Phone 700 Summer Street Cheerful Chatter Greene Countians do not realize how much they are blessed with a mild, sunny climate until one of these spells of real winter weather such arrived the first of the week occur every few years. The mercury scurried down near zero and water pipes and cars froze difficulties, Greene County is and there, were all sorts of not prepared for real cold. Howturn ever, it was very short lived.

That is one of the wonderful features of the climate here, that. any unusual spell of cold or heat lasts only a few days at most. Truly we are very fortunate people. A fairy tale materializing into life before the eyes of the spectators with a most exquisite backi ground made under the direction of that gifted Marion Lawson was the entertainment at the Roby Fitzgerald School this week. Dignified Lucile Tilson staged and directed the production and Eunice Carter Sanders and Buddy Anderson had charge of the music.

All three seemed to have as much fun as the lovely little people dressed in striking and unusual costumes as peasants, ladies and courtiers of the court, bakers, tailors, etc. It was like a return to childhood and those who were responsible for the charming production are to be sincerely gratulated. This entertainment and the one staged at Crescent School, so entirely different and so lovely, are like jewels to be highly rated among the stage plays that have been produced here. Did you ever know a nicer man than Judge Roy Hickerson? He can hardly keep away from Greeneville, as his two attractive grandsons live here, and he has to collect new material every week or two with which to entertain his friends, so he slips off and spends the week-end with Joe and Kit and the boys. He will soon know all Greenevillians by their- first name, as like son, Joe, he never saw a stranger.

I understand that two of the best qualified baby sitters in town are Bill Waddell and Floyd Wayland. Both are excellent, especially as long as the child sleeps, else things do not go so well. I don't know whether they would get along with other youngsters as perfectly as they do with Titia and Benny, but baby sitters are very scarce, and this is just a tip to young parents, who would like an evening off, as both these gentlemen would like to have a chance at a little spare change. Tom Brabson has a pair of the most wonderful looking fur mittens that looked extremely comfortable this week when the thermometer was going down, down. Fay' sent them to him for Christand they look well with a mas, camel's hair overcoat and brown hat.

Of course, Tom is discor- always sartorially perfect with no dant note, and is the envy and admiration of all masculine Greene, Countians who to look like the last word in dress. Another very snappy masculine dresser is popular Fred Brooks. wonderful taste in suits, Fred has and they always seem to fit ex- lEas had full charge of her great nephew, months-ol Bobby Austin, while Daddy was in South America and Mother in Washington, and both Lucy, and Bobby had a wonderful time, Everybody agreed that the plate served at the Hunters' Club banquet was simply super, with delicious venison as the "piece de resistance." Paul Wakefield was there and was doing full justice to the meal when I looked in his direction. Much interest centered around good-looking J. 0.

Bales, and 1 never saw him look (better, He was wearing a well-tailored grey 'suit with pin stripe and red tie. Harla White, one of the skilled "hunters, looked exceptionally well too in gray, and so did George Stroud, who is one of the top men. Robert Britton was wearing dark grey with conservative tie end Chance Simpson had on dark brown with tie and handkerchief actly right, and be just the thing to wear. The very high praise given the local post VFW by the national commander this week is the of pride to all Greene Countians. Commander Starr made the unqualified statement that the local post had more than any other post the United States in a period of one year.

The boys have worked extremely hard, and their friends all rejoice with them in the amazing record of accomplishment which they have made Charlie Misiner has more fun with his little grandson and name sake, Charles Alter, than almost any man in town. The two are fast friends, and Charles can always depend on having someone to intercede for him with his parents if Charlie is anywhere in the neighborhood: Lucy Noel Brown does more nice things for people. In her family the is considered an ex pert nurse, and none of the mem(bers of the family feels the alightjest worry when youngster left in her care. This week she lEas had full charge of her great Rev. James Hankins To Resume Pastorate James E.

Hankins, former student pastor of The Little Parish of the Hills, has returned to Greenville to resume ministry to the Parish on a full-time basis. Mr. Hankins was graduated from Union Theological Seminary in New York, January 31 with the degree of Bachelor of Science Theology, While studying in New York he ved as South assistant minister in the Presbyterian Church, Dobbs Ferry, New York for one year as Director of Religious Education at The Congregational Church, Patchogue, L. New York for two years. While at Union, Mr.

Hankins majored in the field of Practical Theology with special emphasis on the rural church. When asked why he chose to return to the rural areas he said, "Those of us who love country life and the people it produces grow weary and disturbed when we see rural churches SO unmercifully exploited. For the most part, the rural church is the laboratory for the college student or seminarian- -merely a stepping stone something higher, It is often the refuge for the aged minister who desires a place of peace and quiet to spend his remaining days "And he says, "that little white meeting house in the hill is the seed plot in which the faith of millions is planted and nurtured. It is that same little meeting house that feeds the churches. in our largest cities.

1 trust some of this exiploitation can be eliminated." Mr. and Mrs. Hankins are happy to I be back in Greeneville, and they look forward to working with the rural people of Greene County. FIRST CHURCH GOD B. -Sellers, Pastor 9:30, Sunday School, Mrs.

It would be extremely interjesting to have a tour of the various lovely collections that Greenevillians and Greene Countians own.

ST. JAMES EPISCOPAL CHURCH You cannot road your New Testament without seeing that the Christian Faith not only made people live different lives, but also made them different people. And they were different because God had made possible for them to regenerate, that is to ray, renew. They were renewed in mind and in will. There was an outward and visible change effected in their liver, and Inside them a new life had begun.

It was this kind of change that gave to the early Church and to Its individual members such tres mendous power and influence, There was to be seen through them the visible evidence of spiritual grace, joy, love, long suffering, and peace. Christians were people marked with the mark of Jesus Christ. It is that kind of change inward and outward that the Christion Church and Christian, peoples desperately need. It comes best and steadiest through faithfulness, through devotion, through discipline. And the first step to gain it and to cultivate it, is to go Ito Church regularly, say your prayers regularly, aid read your regularly.
