Easter bags fund gospel work at Ottawa church
An unusual devotional project at the Ottawa Christian Church marked Holy Week. Judas Iscariot’s betrayal inspired 30 bags, each carrying a piece of silver worn daily for thirty days before Easter. The Easter service dedicated the bags to gospel work, totaling about $225. Local garden notes praise bulbs’ spring power and a fine display at 800 S. Main. Church gatherings included scripture lessons by Mrs. George Graves and a hostess event with Easter basket favors. Families traveled for holidays, with multiple social visits listed among residents and guests.

A four hour blaze destroyed most of Bowling Green Virginia’s business district on Easter. The 730000 fire echoed a 1900 blaze in the same area, leaving eight families homeless and injuring two. Several witnesses recalled youths fleeing the barn fire as flames burst forth. Local establishments including two restaurants, a ten cent store, drug stores, a clothing shop, a hardware store, barber shops, and a garage were consumed alongside a Red Cross office and a Masonic hall. Families and visitors from nearby towns were noted in social scenes amid the disaster.
