On next Sunday, August 18th, will
occur the dedication of the beautiful
new Methodist Episcopal church
erected in our city. This is an occa-
sion which should engage the careful
thought and consideration of every
citizen of Red Cloud. About two
years ago this enterprise IA under
taken by the congregation of Metho.
dist people of this city and in building
the church they have endeavored not
only to provide "A suitable place of
worship for their own congregation,
but have erected IA church which is an
ornament to the city and will fill a
long needed want of Red Cloud as a
place for public gatherings of differ
ent kinds.
1t has cost something over $4,000 to
give to the public this church. At the
present time the load is being carried
by u few citizens who had the courage
and public spirit to take hold Of the
matter, advance the funds and carry
forward the enterprise, and it Is now
up to people as citizens to deter.
mine whether or not the debt of this
church shall be lifted and Red Cloud
have free of debt this long needed,
we'll furnished and commodious
church.
The Red Cloud chief., 1905-09-15

Every citizen of Red Cloud should
feel that he has an interest in this
church building, for indeed this is a
fact, and every citizen owes it to him
to be present on dedication day to
assist in a substantial way to raise the
funds necessary to pay TIE debt re.
naming against this church.. There
is not a property owner in the town
but what this church will enhance the
value of his real estate, and the
church building is one that all can
point 10 with pride, and it will GER
tainly be a comfort to know that one
has assisted with his money in build
ing and giving to the city of Red
Cloud a church building which is
surely a thing of beauty and a joy for
ever.
1t is hoped that the citizens will
turn out in mass, go down into their
pockets and pay every dollar against
this church building, and il every
citizen will do his duty and pay his
just proportion, the outstanding
Indebtedness can be easily paid aud
we will do ourselves an honor as citi-
zens and will have a church that is
not only a credit to us but will cer.

Ernest Chambers.

One of the saddest deaths which it
has been our duty to chronicle was
that Of Ernest Chambers, son of Mr..
and Mrs Thomas Chambers, who live
near Blue Hill, which occurred Satur-
day afternoon at his home on the
L. ID. Thomas farm, near Cowles. Mr..
Chambers had been sick for about a
week with appendicitis. and it was
decided that an operation was neces-
sary. Saturday morning the opera
ton was performed, but the shock was
too much for his system and he died
in the afternoon. A particularly sad
feature of the death was the fact that
his wife, to whom he had been married
only a little over a year, was lying ill
in the same house, she having given
birth to a son but a week previous.
Funeral services were held at the
home Sunday afternoon, conducted
by Rev. G.. w. Hummell and Rev.
Hutchins, and interment was in the
Cowles cemetery.
Deceased was born near Blue Hill
twenty four years ago, and is survived
by his wife and child, father and
mother, sister and two half brothers.
He was a nephew of S. j. Chambers,
who built the M. L. church here, and
was also a cousin of DR.. e A. Thomas.
A. J. Means.
The funeral of Andrew j.. Means,
who died last Friday morning, was
held Sunday afternoon at 2:3O, from

of the greatest of Hawaiian orators
today, has been selected by the Anti

Mr.. Wolley, who said in part:
Clean hands are a condition prec-

THE shame of our country today is
, that too many of our priests and
! Judges and elders have reversed Gods
order in this respect and are making
no intelligent effort rightly to compre-
bend the relation of the government to
! the liquor traffic. We are praying
tremendously to God and curse it, but
we are putting up hands to God that
are unclean. There is nothing more
hopeless than that kind Of prayer.
IF a man is watching the church
with one eye and the political machine
with the other, he would not know
God II he met him on the road.
Don't mind your neighbors: get your.
