Delegates enjoyed instruction and social hours, with meals provided by the Ladies Aid. Officers were elected, including Izetta Alsdorf as president and Mildred Cole as first vice president. Rev. G M Derbyshire urged Bible study, mission awareness, and Baptist history while urging youth to avoid an inferiority complex and to lead church initiatives.

Limestone Delivered to Marion Farmers Back Door
Marion county farmers near the Rock Island Railway can secure limestone at a saving by delivery on the right of way or at a crossing near their farms. This eliminates up to five miles of hauling and saves about 15 dollars per car. A special train of ten to twenty cars can be arranged if enough orders exist, with each farmer supplying two men to help unload. A limestone meeting will be held next week at Garrett Ryke's home near Otley to explain the program titled Limestone Delivered at the Farmers Back Door.
