70 REMOVE OLD LANDMARK
Green Mountain Church Will Be
Moved From Present Site Into VIII

moVGd from FToScHL OHIO t1Ao WI
lase.
At a special meeting of the trus-
tees of the Green Mountain Congre-
gational church 1t was decided to move
the church from Its present site into
the village of Green Mountain, n half
mile south from the point where the
church has stood for over forty years.
When the church was erected there
was no village. and the place of wor-
ship was to Accommodate those liv-
ing In the country for miles around.
Later the Great Western line was
built, village formed, and now the
population is such that the majority
of the trustees thought the require
ments of the people could be better
met by moving the church into town.
There Is difference OF opinion, how
ever, and the question has been dis
cussed for several weeks. The ma
.iority of the trustees favored the re-
moval, and so voted, so the church will
be moved into town us soon as the
weather will permit the work to be
done.

COMMITTEE IS PLEASED.
Inspection Committee Of tho 9. a. r.:
PAYS Annual Visit to the Soldiers

pays Annual Visit to the Soldiers
Homo.
The inspection committee, repre-
sentine the Iowa department OF the G
A. r., spent Wednesday in the city on
it's annual visit to the Soldiers Home.
The visiting gentlemen were at the
Home all day and went thru the pulio-
dngs Inspecting the quarters nos
pital and other departments. Those
here were Adult. Gen. George A. New
man, of Cedar Falls; Phil Schaler. OF
Sac City, and l.. B. Cousins OF Coun-
Gil Bluffs. The members OF the COM
mittee left for their homes last night.
Adtutant General Newman, who, be-
sides being high in the ranks OF the
G. A. r., and for many years secretary
of the senate, was seen by TimeN-
Republican reporter, and voiced the
feeling of the committee when he said:
1--WE found everything in excellent
shape, just as we always do, altho
there are some things needed at the
Home that the state should furnish In
the way of additional furnishings, es-
pecially in the old peoples building.
But as whole the veterans are cared
for in the best of shape, and Colonel
Horton seems to be especially well
adapted for the management OF such
an institution. While the committee
was at his office today It had a chance
to see his method of dealing with one
or two individual cases, and his atti-
tude toward the Home members Is
much as that Of father would be to-
ward his son. Our visit this year was
not as important as 1t would have
been had the legislature been in ses-
sion. During the years Of the legis-
lature the department always takes
up the needs Of the Home with the
Legislature. Our committee will make
it's formal report of it's visit at the
annual encampment Of the department,
which Is to be held in Oskaloosa in
May"
Senator s. H. Harper, OF Ottumwa,
Wapello county, was also at the Home
on Wednesday,, but his visit had MOTH
ing to do with that Of the committee.
Senator Harper is candidate for de-
partment commander, and Is formulate
ing his campaign.
Department. Commander st. John,
of Riceville, was to have been here
with the committee, but is i'll Of ap-
pendicitis at his Home. -Comman-
der l.. B. Raymond Of Hampton, is in
Oskaloosa on business and could not
be present, and Colonel Abernathy. of
Usage, is at present in Tampa, Fla,
and was unable to be here. These
three were also members Of the COM
mittee appointed at the last encamp-
ment.
