organiser and founder of the International Baraca movement. The Baraca class of the First Baptist church waa perfected and received It charter about, this time. Under Mrs. Ducketf leadership tlie class had a phenomenal growth. Much more far-reaching, however, In Importance was the training and development of the large group of young men constituting the class.

It wa Mra. Duckett purpose and aim to "make of each Individual man a Bible student; a man with conviction and an avowed purpose to live up to his conviction in hi daily life; one with confidence to stand erect tion hut feet, express himself publicly, or lead a prayer; and a man not ashamed to do personal service at any time and anywhere. She labored indefatlguably day In and day out to accomplish this Her boys, as she called them, were her constant thought. Her. tele phone kept her In constant touch with large groups of fellows, and there waa scarcely a day that some of them were not called upon to do an errand of love, to hunt up and Influence some other man for good, or to go home and search up something from the Bible.

To say that they obeyed would be expressing it mildly. The fellows fairly delighted to do her It was nothing uu usual to find in the class or men a mauy a 3Q, men, wtUJng lead a public prayer or to present a thought. There, are many men to day, active- la, savers! the churches of the town, who owe th best of their training to the efforts of Mrs. Alice Duckett.

In addition to her religious work, Mrs Duckett was a leader and an srdent worker in the community, in effort, in behalf of education. health and. civic improvement. Her life, her labors, her Influence merit genuine tribute a community can offer. d.
