Mr.. Bryan's BeGirrinQs

My first ambition was to be - Baptist
preacher. | dropped that ambition af-
ter l had seen Il baptizing when | was
still Il boy, but my Republican friends
have been mean enough to say that my
giving it up WAS due to the natural
aversion of a Democrat for water. My
next ambition was to be Il farmer, and
my third to be a lawyer. l fell into poll
tics accidentally. but stayed there by
choice. | had no intention when | went
to Nebraska of going into politics. 1t
is easily proved by the fact that at the
time | went there the State was Repub.
lican, the district Republican,, the coun-
ty Republican and the voting precinct
Republican, and l regret to add that
there has not been SO great a change in
their political complexion as / would

Work Of Woman's Union Prayer
Circle.

Work Of Woman's Union Prayer
Circle.
On Friday, May II, the Bird an.
niversa ry Of the woman's union
prayer circle Of Mexico was held at
the home of Mrs. Orear.
The annual report, prepared
and read by Mrs. Hinde. showed
that there had been held during
the year seventy meetings, with an
aggregate attendance Of I,156.
These meetings were held in vari-
Gus Christian families. These were
held in Methodist homes, 27, Pres
byterian homes, II; Christian
church hOmes,2l. Baptist homes,
10. One meeting was held with
the Kings Daughters in the Bap-
fist church, and in June, in the
lawn of Mrs. Orear in coniunc-
ton with the w. G. r. U. and the
Kings Daughters, Flower Mission
Day" was observed with an attend
ance of 200, many of whom were
invalids, and old ladies, "the shut
ms" of our city, whose hearts were
made glad by the buggy rides, flow
ers, and refreshments that were
furnished them on this occasion.
The ministers of the gospel pres
ent contributed much to the enjoy
ment and profit of the gathering.
One of the good things worthy of
mention was the contribution of
twelve dollars to the mission work
carried on at Trelo ar Hall, on
Sunday p. m.
These union prayer meetings,
under the leadership of Mrs. A.
Hughes, have been an inspiration
and great spiritual blessing to all
who have attended them; and in
deed their influence has been indi-
rectly felt in all the churches, and
in the entire community. AS a
factor for good, inspiring, and
building up the Christian life of
the women of Mexico. there has,
probably, been no movement in
our city, for the past three years,
that has accomplished more than
this wOmen's union prayer meet
ing. Visitors from other states
have been blessed in these meet
ings, and at least one similar or
gauization in the state of Ken
lucky was the result of the inspir-
alton received by Il lady visiting
Mexico and attending these meet
lugs. Who can set a limit to the
waves of influence that have been
set in motion by these devoted
Christian women! If every Chris
tan woman in Mexico would occa-
siOnally at least, drop into this
Friday afternoon prayer circle and
come in touch with these earnest,
working women, l am sure she
would feel her spiritual life quick
ened, and all the churches of our
city would come into Il higher
Christian experience and a more
fruitful service to the Master. May
the Lord continue to use these
good women for the advancement
of His kingdom. OBSERVER.

compels us to conform ourselves to
the ruling of the most high God
who doeth all things we'll.

resolutions be entered in the min
utes of this Lodge, a copy be sent
to the bereaved family aud that a
