Granite Falls Has
Passed Over Top
A telephone message from Granite Falls yesterday stated that
the Methodist church there had raised over $8,046 and expected to reach $10,000
before night. Its allotment was $6,500 and Chairman D.H. Warlick and his
workers went over the top before the morning service. The news of Sunday’s good
work was confirmed in a message to the Record
today from Mr. A.M. Martin.

Hickory Church Has
$16,000 of Quota
With $16,000 of the $25,000 allotted to the First Methodist
Church to be raised in the next five years, canvassers out yesterday and today
reported a total of $16,000 to Chairman W.H. Nicholson today, and there would
be little doubt that the full amount would be secured. The committee members
reported interest in the work and practically every member seen promised to
help the cause along.
The percentage raised here was higher than that reported
throughout the territory of the Southern Methodist Church as a whole, and
probably better than the average in this state.
Charlotte reported a full quota and West Hickory and Granite
Falls are far ahead of their quota, it was announced today.
The campaign will continue here until the full amount is in
sight.

West Hickory Church
Exceeds Allotment
West Hickory Methodist Church, with $940 allotted to it,
raised $1,300 yesterday for the centenary fund, Rev. J.A. Peeler, pastor,
reported today. The members were enthusiastic. Mr.W.P. Whiting was chairman of
the soliciting committee, the others being Messrs. Frank Benfield, Jackson
Moss, W.L. Newton, W.R. Icard, Boyd Keesler, Harley Chester and D.P. Bolick.
