the large audlencs present. After re-
sponsive reading, hymns. and prayer by
the pastor, Prof. @. K. HOdgln told the
story Of the church from its beginning
in 1880 In the small house Of worship,
through its years OF growth till 1890,
when II erected its new church. and on
the crest OF the wave OF prosperity built
its parsonage 10 1891. In the fall OF 1892
came the FIRE, bat the church was rebuilt,
and re-dedicated May 81. 1898 Both par
sOnage and church we're burdened with
heavy debts, aggregatlng six or seven
thousand dollars. When the present pas
tor came, three years ago, II was Eve
thousand Now the debt Is all wiped out,
by this last heroic aud self sacrificing
effort Of this people.
Professor Hodgin told this story in the
quaint form OF a chronicle. which ought
TO be published for its historical interest.
Following this story came the crema-
ton OF the papers representing the debt
obligations, oyer which ceremony the
chairman Of She board OF trustees, Karl
A. Snyder, presided. Then came an adj
dress by Rev. +. II. Allen, adding con-
CALCULATIONS and dwelling on the value
and place Of the church in the commun-
ity, explaining some oil the difficulties
which a church meets In this community
not from foes only, but rom those who
should be its friends.
While this ends all interest bearing
debt. there still remains something over
$500, a debt OF honor due to its Church.

paid Ia annual offerings.

them, having such a degree OF pros
perity.

She tore the azure robe OF night
And set the stars of glory therei
She mingled with It's gorgeous dyes

Then, from his mansion In the sun,

And gave into his mighty hand
The symbol OF her chosen land.

And see the lightning lances driven.
When strive the wauiors Of the storm,
And rolls the thunder drum OF heaven
