A. H. McLAIN RETURNED
FROM BUSINESS TRIP EAST


A. H. McLain returned home last
Friday night from a business visit of
between five and six months duration
in Iowa, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin
and other states in the Mississippi val
ley He made his headquarters in
Chicago, and during his absence visit
ed most of the important towns for a
distance of hundred and fifty or two
hundred miles north and west Of that
city.
Mr. McLain says the people in that
section are now enjoying an unusual
degree of material prosperity and are
correspondingly happy and contented
in consequence. The banks, according
to Mr. McLain, have plethora of
money in their vaults and everybody
has more or less of the "long green"
in their pockets, a condition due to
the good prices and the big agricul
tural crops Of the last few years. De-
spite the fourishing state of affairs
in the East Mr.. McLain expresses sat
isfaction at being in Colorado again,
which, he, asserts, has a host of at
fractions peculiarly her own.

COUNTY SUNDAY SCHOOL
CONVENTION AT FLORENCE

To the energy and enthusiasm of
Prof. L. D. Eichhorn, president of the
association is due much of the sue
cess of the Fremont County Sunday
School convention, held in the First
M. E. church at Florence on Tuesday
and Wednesday of this week. Presi-
dent Eichhorn was ambitious to have
at least one representative present
from each Sunday school in Fremont
county and he more than succeeded
in his purpose. Florence people gave
the convention a cordial welcome and
were generous in their hospitality to
visiting delegates, thereby contribut-
ing to the good fellowship and enjoy
ment of the occasion.
Mayor Fletcher delivered the address
of welcome, which was followed by
short talks from various speakers in
relation to the work of the convention
At the first days session Rev. ]. G.
Carmen of Denver spoke on the sub
ject, THE Educational Reconstruction
of the Sunday School and on "The
Power of the Teacher" Superintend-
ent Pressey on "The Competent Teach
er, What He Must Be and Do" Judge
J. D. Blount on "The Sunday School
and Public Morals;" Rev. H, r. O'Mal-
