IMPROVEMENTS
Abe Being Made on the Country Club
House.

A number of important changes
and improvements are being made in
the club house of the Country Club.
The west wall of the small room on
the east side Of the first floor has
been torn out and this room is now
a part of the sitting room. This
adds large amount of floor space to
the sitting room and will make it
very nice for the winter dancing
parties. Hard wodd floors are also
to be put in over tsk entire building
and the door between the north par
lor and the sitting room has been
made much larger so that the entire
down stairs part of the club house
has an entirely different appearance
from that of old. The improvements
will be finished in very short time
and the club house will again be op-
en- for visitors.

TOO MUCH IRREvERENCE.
He Believes, Even Among Some of
the Ministers of the Gospel
His Remarks.


last evening a fair sized congrega-
tion heard the Rev. III. II. Hadley,
pastor of the church, deliver a SER
mon which was a strong and eloquent
protest against the common sacrali-
gious use Of the sacred name OF God.
Those who were so fortunate as to
hear the splendid sermon were deep
ly impressed.
The Rev. Hadley took as the text
of his sermon, "Holy is His Name !"
He spoke Of the devoutness of the
ancients and their respect for every
thing holy, how the Hebrews never
mentioned the word Jehovah, their
name for God, aloud nor wrote it.
"Perhaps," said the Rev. Hadley.
"that would be considered in our
day as carrying devoutness to the ex-
treme, but the custom would In all
probability do away with irrever-
ence.'
Continuing he said that the names
"God" and "Jesus Christ" had
been given to a body of men and
women called Christians to guard
and to keep holy and that it is their
duty to do so. He said that no mat
ter how mneh people It other sects
differed from the Roman Catholics
there was one thing that they must
be respected for, and that was their
respect of God AS Christians they
have a charge to keep sacred names
holy, "and," said Mr.. Hadley, 'They
have taken good care of their
charge.'
"To know God personally is not
to know Him Familiarity the con-
gregation was informed, elf this
morning I had announced carelessly
the sacred name of God in the title
for this evenings sermon there
would have been a big crowd pres
ent to hear me or if 1 had also an
nounced that I was to speak on a
sermon recently delivered by pas
tor of one of the local churches |
presume there would have been a
large gathering present, but I did not
do that as it is not my place to use
Gods name in a title for a sermon
or to criticise the words of any
Christian Minister
The Rev. Hadley said that it used
to be that any man who used pro-
family was considered no gentleman,
Or Christian, but that did not Seem
to be the case now and about the
only thing that profane person can
be accused of in this day and year is
Of not being Christian. Concluding
the Rev. Hadley said that it was not
his intention to denounce any one,
but to protest against the profane
use of the word God, against the
telling of vile stories, reading ques-
tionable stories in the newspapers
and repeating conundrums which al
luded to Bible quotations.
