CHURCH DEDICATED
A New Home for the Silver Bow
Park NJ. e. Worshippers.
A LARGE CONGREGATION
Exceedingly Interesting Services Con-
Quoted by the Rev. w. w. Van Ors-
del OF the Helena District.
Debt Nearly All Paid.

The new Silver Bow Park NJ. +.
church was dedicated yesterday after.
noon. A large congregation was in at
tendance, and the services. conducted
by Rev. w. w. Van Orsdel, presiding
elder of the Helena district, were of an
exceedingly interesting character. The
church sprang up so quickly that COM
p~aratively few people outside of the
Silver Bow park locality knew such an
edifice was building. The church is To-
Gated near the Greeley school. 1t was
started in the first week in March, but
work has been pushed so vigorously
that the building was completed suf-
ficiently for dedication yesterday. The
church is a frame structure, "a by 30
feet. and, though small. will be ade-
quatc for the needs of the community
in which it is located. The building
was erected at a cost of about $500. and
the feature most pleasing to the church
society is the fact that at the close of
the dedicatory services yesterday there
was a debt only of about SIS on the
church.
The dedicatory services commenced
in the afternoon at 3 o'clock. AT z
o'clock a special car conveyed Rev. Van
Orsdel and the other ministers who
were to be in attendance, together with
quite a number of the members OF the
Mountain View NJ. f. church. to'Silver
Bow park. Among the ministers We're
the Revs. Lounsberry, John Boyle,
Professor Hastings of the Washington
school, George Tibbets and b. Crowl of
Walkerville.
The services commenced with a SER
mon preached by Rev. Van Orsdel. who
took as his subject, The Giving OF a
Tenth and preached a strong sermon
especially appropriate to the occasion.
He dwelt principally upon conservation
| of life, in which the thought he sought
to impress upon his hearers was that
as a church is dedicated, so ought a
people be dedicated to the service of
God. He also touched upon the indif-
ference of the church to Christian en-
terprise i'm large cities. and made a
strong appeal to the people OF the To-
cality to prove themselves worthy of
the opportunity now afforded them by
establishing a Christian community OF
stable character.
At the conclusion of the sermon Rev.
Mr.. Van Orsdel asked that a subscrip-
ton be taken up to assist in raising the
debt incurred by the erection of the
church. and in a few minutes more
than $500 was raised, leaving the debt
as stated above about SIS.
Rev. Mr.. "a Orsdel then read the
regular dedicatory service of the
Methodist Episcopal church, which was
followed by the mmunica partak-
ing of the of the Lords Sup
per. In closing the service, the presid-
ing elder paid a tribute to the society
which built the church, and said that
i'm all his experience he had never
known a church whose society had so
few members to begin and complete a
church in so short a time and with so
much success.

THE SNOW SHOVEL At SEA.
amiIia Implement Of Land Use Found
ON Waters rs Well.

From the New York Sun.
The common idea of a snow shovel is
that IL is used to clear the sidewalk
and hat sort of thing. but the snow
falls on the sea as well as on the land.
and IL there is a. ship in the way of the
storm, of course. falls on its decks just
as it would fall on anything ashore.
1t may be that the snow that falls on
the shi will be washed off by the sea.
or il may be necessary to clean IL of,
so as to give a better and securer foot
hold on the decks and to facilitate the
working Of the ship. This is often done
with snow shovels, which are carried by
probably nine out of ten of the deep
water ships, from one to three each,
according to the size of the vessel.
The snow shovels used aboard ship
are made especially for that use. They
are not non or steel shod along the edge,
as most of the snow shovels used along
the shore are, and whatever metal Is
used i'm their construction Is so placed
that il cannot come i'm contact with the
deck. No iron o is ever used on a
ships deck.
As a matter of fact. the snow shovel
is used on shipboard mostly when the
ship is in port, where she may remain
for a period of weeks, discharging and
~reloading: but when the vessel sails the
snow shovels are slowed away In the
large lazaretto aft, or under the fore
castle deck forward. On a ship bound
for San Francisco the snow shovels may
be needed when she is rounding Cape
Horn. where snow sometimes falls in
summer. Snow that falls ape the deck
in the waist Of the ship is likely TO be
washed away by the water she takes
aboard; the decks more likely to need
shoveling are those higher above the
sea, the forecastle deck and the quar-
ter deck. In a time of snow squalls the
captain would perhaps keep a man
standing ready with a shovel to shove
off the snow after every squall. There
might be times when the decks were
iced and slippery, when the captain
would have ashes strewn upon them TO
give a securer foothold.
