			DEATH OF THURMAN FOSTER

   The home of Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Foster, was made very sad Tuesday night, 
when the death angel entered and claimed their youngest son Thurman.
   He was suffering from a fall from a tree last Saturday, and physicians
advised an operation, and he was taken to Texarkana, late Monday night, but 
after examination it was found he could not undergo the operation and 
gradually grew weaker. Loving hands administered to his sufferings he 
lingered until 4 oclock Thursday afternoon, when God, who doeth all things 
well, and who said "Suffer little children to come unto Me" called Thurman
to dwell with Him.
   Thurman was just 12 years of age and was loved by all for his kind and
sweet disposition. Besides the heartbroken parents he leaves three brothers
and six sisters to mourn his going away.
   Funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon at the Methodist church
conducted by Rev. Burnett, interment following in the city cemetery.

			THE METHODIST CHURCH

   Now that indication of progress is seen, in every class and department
in our Sunday school, let us not slacken in our efforts. Every individual
in Stamps ought to be in some church and Sunday School.
   Our hearts go out in sympathy to Bro. J. F. Foster and family in the
untimely death of their splendid son Thurman.
   Will have our Sunday School 9:45. Preaching 11:A.M. and 7:15 P.M. Senior,
Junior and Intermediate League 6:15 P.M. next Sunday. The public are welcome
to all these services.
   We are still praying and hoping that Brother and Sister George Holmes will
soon be restored to their wanted health and can be back in their usual places 
in the activities of the church.
   Do not forget your check for the wornout preachers.
