MRS EULYS BISHOP SHOWER
The ladies of the Union Missionary Baptist Church showered the new bride, Mrs. Eulys Bishop in the home of Mrs. Lona Smith Tuesday afternoon. Several from other churches co-operated.  A composition of the "Life of the Bride" was prepared by Mrs. F. B. McMath and read, and contests and toasts were enjoyed. Little Earline Longmire and Kathleen Nix were each blacked and dressed  as a piccaninny, and bore many huge baskets of gifts which they called "the washing."
Mrs. Bishop beautifully expressed thanks for the remembrances. Mrs. Earnest James presided at the punch bowl. Mrs. Loza Smith proved an ideal hostess and everyone present has a delightful time.

Bishop Saves a Finger

Eulys Bishop came near to losing the index finger on his right hand Monday morning when he was working with the engine on his car. He touched the fan belt which was not moving, and it moved instanter and pulled his glove and hand with it breaking the bones in the end of the finger and cutting the flesh to the bone.
Mr. Bishop went to Baylor hospital where doctors set the bones and sewed the flesh back in place and dressed the other portions of the hand, which were bruised a great deal. To forestall lockjaw a serum was administered. He returned home Wednesday. He certainly came near to losing a finger.
