At the Union services last Sunday
night that sweet solo, Face to
Face, was sung for the pleasure of
the large congregation by Mrs. Fan
ME Walker.
The congregation at the Presby-
terrain church last Sunday was ad-
dressed by the pastor whose sermon
was Of an exposition type. The text
was taken from Eph. 2:19, I've are
no more strangers and foreigners, but
fellow citizens with the saints and
members of the household of God.
This chapter in Paul's letter gives a
description of changed life. In
the first three verses he describes the
sinner before his conversion. In the
verses from four to ten he tells us
how the sinner is changed to a cit
izen Of the kingdom of God. Thi,
is done by the grace of God, not
through ourselves or through any
works that we may do. In the last
verses of the chapter Paul teaches
us something of the privileges Of
Christianity. Among the many, hon
ors God confers upon us is that one
that we become the habitation Of
God. The hero Of the Greeks was
the dwelling place of some particular
god who worked wonders through
mortals. The christian becomes tn,
dwelling place of his God and Goo
can work through mortal man.
Sunday morning Mrs. G. P. Nog
gle favored the audience at the FRS
Presbyterian church with a solo
"Show me the Way, Oh, Father,
which was well rendered and much

May Postpone Building Owing to
the agitation and the uncertainty
about the location of the new govern
ment building which may be erected
at Jamestown in the near future, the
trustees Of the NJ. E. church may de-
eide to postpone building operations,
intended to be commenced in the
spring in the site Of the church
grounds, u0til fall. This is owing to the
fact that the church property is an ex-
cellent location for the government
building, should one be erected here
according to the bill introduced by
Senator McCumber for SIS, 900 struc-
ture. The plans for the new M. E.
church improvements have been de-
cided upon but another location near
the present one is favored by some of
the members. The church owns
quarter of a block that is expected to
be valuable for business purposes and
too valuable on which to erect a per.
manent church building in the view
of the members. The property has
l25 feet frontage on 5th ave. and 40

A Novel Proposition-The7 Farm

build themselves and becomes then
property after the grain stored there
10 is shipped. The elevator will pay
for wheat after weighing and grad
ing it but they can not store 1t 90
account of lack of cars for shipping
wheat already bought.
>. After recounting the efforts Of the
N. P. to get fuel promptly into the
town Of Maddox, en- notice OF the
shortage from the Commercial club
of the town and the fact that the
lailload company sent a car load Of
coal by express the Standard referring
to the fuel situation says:
"In looking at the fuel question In
all its phases it would seem that the
railroad companies want to teach
farmers and fuel merchants the vir-
tue Of responsibility. Last summer
the coal merchants we're notified to
get in their supply early before the
cattle and grain shipping seasons
opened-as the crop reports indicated
that there would be heavy fall and
winter business. but they failed to
heed the notice, fence the present
trouble. The only concern in Mad
dock handling fuel to make any at.
tempt to supply the market was the
Northwest Lumber company.
"The Powers Elevator Co. at Hes
per last summer got in large supply
of wood before the fall rush came on:
and they are now in shape to help
relieve the situation.
This should teach farmers and fuel
dealers to get in their supply early in
the season hereafter"
