Having disposed of Mineola High

Freeport High School football team
has only Baldwin between it and
h perfect season. The annual con-test,
postponed from Election Day
because of rain, is to be played on
Thanksgiving Day morn at 11:30
o'clock.
On its record Freeport 'should
win without a great deal of diffi-culty,
but there is no predicting
the outcome of a contest between
two such bitter rivals as the Red
Devils ant! Baldwin. The result
probably will remain in doubt un-til
the last minute of play.

but the Father of all. He
said that to the words so familiar
In church life, "trustees," "elders,"
"ushers/' a new term had been
added, "Invltor." He added that it
was the function of the usher to
escort the worshiper to a seat, but
that it was the duty of the In-vitor
to meet .the potential wor-shiper
at his place of business,
in the street or home and urge
him to go to some place of wor-ship
where the usher could. greet
him at the door and escort him

He said that Hitler was misusing

was saved from mis-use, there
would be no opportunity for wor-ship.

Mayor Worden E. Wlnne this
week issued a proclamation call-ing
on all the people of Freeport
to attend divine worship in Uic
churches of their choice Sunday
morning or in Temple Israel on
Friday night, Dec. II.
It follows:
"Whereas, the Village of Free-port
has the unique honor and
distinction of having within Its
midst the Inter-faith Clergy Coun-cil,
an organization composed of
fourteen ministers in Freeport,
representing the Jewish, Catholic
and Protestant faiths, and
"Whereas, Uiis pr^RhizaUpn],1^ji
Joint .movement, he contin-ued,
did not prevent any from re-serving
the right to preserve and
improve their own faith, but from
doing so arrogantly.
Superintendent of Schools John
W. Dodd aaid he was confident
that talks given by the clergymen
at the two assemblies In the high
school Monday had met witri %
wholesome reception by 'the 1,800
boys and girls who heard them.
The Rev. E. A. Pollard Jones,
minister of the Freeport Metho-dist-
Church, as
o! the go-to-church campaign, said
he hoped Sunday^ atjbendance
would "Out-Easter Easter." He de-clared
there was a very definite
return to religion as evidenced In
many ways. He asserted there was
a need ,of organized religion. It
isn"t enough to be religious alone,
and assert one can be a Christian
without going to church, he said.
