Myrtle Station - There was a good atendance-at Sun- day School last Sunday, which was very encouraging to our fine superin- tendent and staff of teachers. We hope that: the weather- man has no more stormy Sundays to hand out to us for the remainder of the winter, as it is disappointing to the little ones as well as to the older ones to miss the lessons and. the sing-songs. On Sunday Rev. W. E. Honey gave the first of a series of sermons on the Apostles' Creed. His subject was Creeds of the Christian Church in general, He dealt on Sunday evening with the origin, as far back as A.D, 300, the Roman Church made use of the Creed. It was not until A.D. 500, after some necessary . changes had been mdde, that the creed was brought into use in the Protestant churches. There is a legend that each one of the twelve Apostles offered a part, which added together made the Apost- les' Creed.

It recalled the ory in the old Fourth Reader of Atri, "one of those little towns that have run half way up the hill beneath_the blazing sun, and then sat down to rest, as_if to say I elim no farther upward, come what may." A large gang of men shovel- bridge, hearing the fruitless efforts of the little ehgine, and knowing that something was wrong, senrried up the steep banks and down the field to the 'rescue. But the plow refused to be forced or even coaxed back on to the track again. So the men returned to their own work.
