between a Saranac pastor and one of
his leading members, who is a justice

should perform marriage ceremonies.
The contest has been going on for a

the elder was at the store of the JUS

The justice was called out and told
that the couple wanted him to marry

stay in the store for few minutes.
The justice then took the couple to his

 The new Methodist church will be so far advanced as to permit the using of it for Christmas eve. A bright pro- gram is being prepared for the Occc- sion. A tree will also be in evidence. when Santa Claus will appear arrayed in his customary splendor to distribute the tokens of rememberances from church and Sunday school.
 The Presbyterian Sunday school will not be found wanting this year any more than in the past in recognizing ''this day of days" when renewed light and spiritual splendor dawned anew upon earth, and may the ancient mes sage of "Peace on Earth, Good Will to Men" be heard once more in every home within fhe borders of this broad land
