A brief biblical verse reads Wherefore he that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall from First Corinthians chapter ten verse twelve. The note emphasizes caution against pride and self confidence in faith.
The community mourns the death of Dr. Robert Neil Baird former pastor of Boyce Memorial ARP Church after a long illness. He led with character and cared for youth, with his class naming a special hour in his honor. The Herald extends condolences to his wife and family. The column then shifts to North Carolina politics and local civic notes including voter registration, party dynamics, and Merchants Association discussions.
The Herald notes the Junior Chamber of Commerce has become a leading civic organization. Much credit goes to Jacob Cooper for his hard work over the past year and the program's growth in the community.
The Memorial service sponsored annually by the United Daughters of the Confederacy will be held in the high school auditorium on May 10, 1938. The April Legion Auxiliary meeting was at Mrs. James S. Ware home with Mrs. Lloyd Phifer as co hostess. The Junior Womans Club met at the club house with Mrs. Paul McGinnis and others hosting. Mrs. Grarly King and Mrs. E. W. Griffin traveled to Gastonia where Mrs. King served as a judge at a show.
