Up at Canal Fulton all the protes-
tant churches of the village have unit
cd to storm the citadel Of Satan and
they are rescuing many brands from
tha burning. The meetings have been
going on for some time and the results
are flattering. The religious excite

ance at the meetings Is large. None
of the churches is large enough to hold
the people. Union meetings are held
and denominational lines have been
forgotten for the time.

and day on Il vast network of lines and
the sympathies of tens Of thousands of
peaceful little homes go with them on
their runs. The great public must have

Mr.. Jack Rumsey, of Council Grove,

he bears q loado of worries that makes it
necessary for him to seek help to keep
his excited nerves from wearing him out.

Mayer shoes have high standing
