FoR a TELEPHoNE 80
a Meeting Held for she Purpose Of seeGr-
ing This Much Needed Improve
msut in GoodIaud

Z c. CulP, OF Salina, Kan, was here
Friday and Saturday representing the
National Automatic Telephone CON-
pany- A meeting was held Friday
evening at the Union State bank rooms
aud quite a delegation Of citizens was
present. Mr.. CuIp explained his bust
ness and the merits Of his system fully
and the proposition OF putting IN a
telephone system in GoOdland-
Another meeting was held Saturday
and a committee was chosen to go TO
Norton and inspect aud report on the
system IN use there, which was put in
by this same company. The committee
we're: J W Handley, William Walker,
Jr., and Dr.. F. H. Smith.
The only drawback seems to be to
get some one to put up the money and
organize a company. Mr.. Culp esti-
mates that $500 capital viii be needed
to put in the telephone system. 1t is
proposed to charge = per month for
instruments in business houses and 81
per month for residences. Serenity i've
subscribers could be secured, and as
GoOdland needs a telephone system
there seems to be no reason why it
cannot be had.

REVIEWS WORK OF CHURCH.
me 1LsEhodist Pastor writes About what
Has Rsen AccompIIshed During
the Confsrsnes Year.

To TIE REPUBLIC: According to
promise wiz give q short account Of
what has been done in the Methodist
church In Goodland the past confer
ence year. Ny sickness from July to
October hindered from preaching as
many sermons as I should have done,
aud my continued lameness has kept
me from making as many calls as did
last year. I have preached 81 sermons
and made 100 calls, attended eight fun
erals and married I've couples.
We have papered and painted and
vanished the inside Of the church at
an expense Of 800, and put in four
gasoline lamps and put up q fine grad
Uated tubular lamp In front Of the
church; put down a good four-foOt
walk on the north side Of the church
lot All the benevOleuees viii be paid
in full as also the presiding elders
salary We owe no man in GOOdland
The Sunday school averages an attend
ance Of Is, and all expenses are paid
up to April 1.
I collected SIG for church repairs
without one refusal or sour look from
anyone. The street lamp was bought
and put up by the kindness Of Dr.
FaFrOw, who also made the first sug-
gestiOn in regard to repairing the
church and who has done Us many acts
Of kindness. Engineer Al Taper went
out and got s97 subscribed from the
railroad men without a refusal from
one.
In regard to thanks, 1 don't know
who not to thank for all have done
their utmost to make my stay in Good
land pleasant and profitable. My
Ladies' Aid society has been forward
in every good word and work. They
have been the best I have had in my
. years Of preaching.
Nine members have been added TO
the church. All has been perfect har-
mOny in the church the past two years
and during that time I have never had
to speak TO anyone for misbehavior
Neither has there been one tobacco
stain on the church carpet. For all
this prosperity I desire to return
thanks to our Father and the people
Of GOOdland. @. H. WOODWARD,
Pastor First NJ. Z. Church.
