We have been requested to suggest the in

about one year ago. We are glad to learn
that it is still being considered.

Our market reports during the past two
weeks have probably been taken to be an
enigma, gotten up with more than ordinary
intricacy. In both issues they were over
looked on acc punt of the pressure Of work
incident to the change in the paper and how,
and when, we ever managed to write the I'M
ineligible nonsense at the head of them, we
are at q loss to say. However, they appear
ut last in paoper shape and we call special
attention to them.

RE-DEDrcATED. After having boon. clos
ed many weeks during the process OF paper
ing, painting, carpeting and otherwise beau,
tifying the interior, the audience room of St.
Johns Lutheran church in this place was
formally opened and rc-dedicated ON Sunday
morning last. Rev. L. A. Mann, Of Middle
town delivered the dedicatory discourse on
Sunday morning and services held again in
the evening.
On Monday tho Middle Conference met
and organized and with the work of the con-
ference during the week was intermingled a
series of exercises devoted especially to the
Luther Centennial Celebration, a complete
program of which appeared in THE CLAIR
ION two weeks ago.
A very great interest in these exercises
was manifested by our people generally and
those who attended were well rewarded as
the excellent program was full observed and
all having part therein seemed to be imbucd
with desire that the celebration should be
marked and effective.
The music rendered by the choir received
unmcasured compliment and the Sunday
School was not forgotten, but had it's allot-
ted share in the celebration.
The room as it now appears, is very
handsome one the entire floor being cover
cd with carpet, neat in figure and color and
fine in texture; the walls and ceiling are
finished with delicately tinted paper, trim
med with deep, dark coored cornico,
wainscoting and panels about the windows,
otherwise entirely plain. BY successful ap-
plcation of art in paper hanging, the per-
spectivc Of the recess pulpit is perfect this
was only secured after second attempt by
one more artstically educated in the paper
hanging trade.
We feel called upon to speak in terms
more than ordinarily complimentary of the
painting done Ivy our home workmcn, the
Mackley Brothers. It's excellence has been
remarked by all and parties well qualified to
pass judgment upon the work have decided
that it was done Ivy n master hand.
The entire cost Of the late improvements
is about $50, the major part of which has
been accumulated by the Mite Society attach
