TwENTY-sIx TAKE THEIR vow
Class Of Boys and Girls Confirmed at
IKnuntHe Memorial.

Class Of Boys and Girls Confirmed at
IxOuntze Memorial.
Holy week services began Sunday morn
ing at Kountze Memorial Lutheran church
with interesting confirmation services, in
which the holy vows were taken by
class Of twenty-six boys and girls. The
girls were dressed in white and comprised
about half the class The altar was taste
fully arranged with palms and flowers,
commemorative Of Palm Sunday. The con-
firmation services were preceded by
musical program by the choir. The sub
ject Of Rev. ]. E. luminous address was
"The Confirmation Vow"
1T is not my purpose TO undertake at
this time theological discussion upon the
purpose and nature OF the confirmation
vow. 1t is merely a rate or ordnance of
the church and is not especially com
manded by the Lord Jesus Christ" said
he. THE early church used IL as a rite
to bring men and women into the church.
Its Significance means that these young
men and women make a public confession
of their faith and their enlistment for ser
vice under the banner of the Christian
religion and the cross Of Jesus Christ and
shall forever be their hope and Joy. There
are different conceptions as to what the
confirmation certificate is for. Some are
prone to look upon it as a free passport
into heaven. Others look upon it with
indifference and simply seek the rite of
confirmation with some chum OF friend
with whom they desire TO enter the
church.. Better for them that they would
never take this vow of enlistment under
God II they accept It only for a service
Of six months, year or for just one cam
paign. Its true meaning is to enter the
service of the Lord Jesus Christ for life"
Then followed the administering of the
confirmation vow to the class and the lay

APOSTLE OF SUNSHINE is THE SPEAKER
DIR. A. A. wiIIits Delivers FOrcefuI
and Eloquent Address to an
Overflow AssembIage
of Men.

The first Of the regular services in the
new home of the Young Mems Christian
association at Seventeenth and Harvey
streets were held yesterday afternoon and
the new assembly room was dedicated with
an address by DIR. A. A. Willis of Phila-
delphia and Dayton o., who is better
known throughout the entire country as
the Apostle of Sunshine"
The main entrance to the new building
was used for the first time as well as the
spacious and artistically decorated as
sembly room, and the dedication exercises
were attended by an overflow assemblage.
After tenor solo by Lucius Pryor, so
loist at the First Congregational church.
Dr. Willis delivered what was regarded
as the most eloquent and forceful address
Of it's character ever heard in Omaha, and
his auditors were enthusiastic In their
praise Of the Apostle of Sunshine"
Il am delighted to have the privilege of
consecrating this hail." said DR.. Willis.
TN 1t 1 see such a grand opportunity for
advancing the kindom of God by the con-
secration of young and noble men,
II am trying to preach the gospel Of JOY
and that Christianity is a blessing here
and not in the hereafter, as some misguided
persons would have us believe. A man be-
comes sick sometimes but refuses to have
minister until nigh unto death, thinking,
wrongfully, that he does not need Christian
aid until he approaches the great iron gates.
That man is trying to use Christianity as a
fire escape.
Program for Everyday Life.
What we should do in our everyday life
is first, to make our peace with God and.
second, TO count our blessings. Lots of
Christians are too gloomy They make
Christianity look so much like a dose of
castor oil that no one wants to take it. Men
are studying and hunting for joy, and God
provides it for us. My Bible teaches me
that troubles are sent as discipline, neces-
sary and wholesome; so count your bles-
sings and don't put on a sour face through
life, for God doesn't put bitter drop in
our cup that isn't. wholesome and neces-
sary.
Il like that good, Christian Methodist
woman that said, Brothers and sisters, I've
got troubles and trials. but they don't
trouble me-

NO STRIKES OR LOCIOUTS

BOTH SIDES MAKE SOME CONCESSIONS
Journeymen Get Five Dollars n Day
and written statements Are
Given by Neither
Party.

The Journeymen plumbers and steam
filters who we're locked out four weeks
ago because their union would not grant
the masters a signed statement promising
to engage in no sympathetic strikes during
1907 will return to work. today. This was
finally decided on yesterday afternoon at
meeting Of the plumbers union in wash
ington hall, when the union cohcurred in
the action OF its committee Saturday. when
committees representing the iourneymen
and masters met and reached a definite
agreement
The terms on which the men return to
work are that the journeymen agree not to
engage in any strikes, sympathetic or
otherwise, for a year from date; the
masters agree not to call any lockout dur
ing the same period. The men are to get
s. a day, which is an advance of so cents.
This advance, however, will not apply on
any work on which the masters have
figured at the old wage.
No signed statements. It was reported
entered into the settlement. each side agree
ing to- take the verbal statement of the
other. Before the lockout was called the
journeymen gave the masters a verbal
agreement they would not engage I'm any
sympathetic strikes during the year, but
at that time the masters association IN
sisted on signed agreement
Open shops VIII Exist.
In the settlement Just made the matter
of the Business Mems association or Build
ing Trades council did not enter into the
negotiations. although these organizations
were thorns in the flesh before and during
the lockout 1t is understood by each side
that open shops will be maintained. The
journeymen have agreed not to quit work
because non-union men are in shop or
on a job and the masters have agreed to
hire union and non-union men alike.
The first tangible suggestion of a settle
ment came from the masters association
last Friday. Twelve shops are represented
in the masters association. and it was gen
orally reported Friday and Saturday that
at least half Of the masteTsN association
was anxious for a settlement. 1t also is
a matter of record that the plumbers and
steam filters of Omaha are well organized
having practically all the skilled journey
men of the city in the union.

Letter to Santa Claus.

Among the many letters we see,
of children to Santa Claus, there
are always those that strike us as
being more forceful than others,
or more amusing Sometimes the
scope of desires of children ex-
pressed in such letters is very
broad, and sometimes they ask
for but single article.
A letter that came to our hands
at this time, we rather deem the
most profuse in 'sweet" request
that we have ever had brought to
our attention.
1t reads like this:
Logan, o., Dec. 10, 1907.
Dear Santa Claus: | do want
You to be sure and bring me lots
of real nice candy; carmels, nut
candy and bon-bons. Oh, say,
bring me whole bushel of bon
bons. / want two dozen nice, big
oranges, basket full of nuts, a
great big bunch of bananas, a
whole pan of cranberries, and two
plates full of good brown turkey
and bowlful of gravy, three
punches celery, can of good peach
preserves and can of spiced
cherries, a bushel of sweet apples
and a pound of figs, whole
barrel of grapes, big green
bunches that come in saw dust.
And Dear Santa Claus, | want
whole lots of peach butter and
apple butter and olives. | want
10 pounds of sugar for mamma to
make me some fudge. Please
bring me nice red basket for me
to put some of my fruit in, for
papa. And, dear good Santa
Claus, bring me any other
fruits or candies or preserves that
you might think of that | have
not mentioned.
NELLIE.
p. ST forgot to tell you, dear
Santa Clause, that you can get all
these things at Comly's in Logan,
and please get all of them the

DR.. L. A. Matthias Dead.

Doctor Matthias had died at noon
on that day, his host of friends
were most feelingly shocked. He
had been in the house for week
or two, having laid off from his
mail route, but nobody thought of
him being seriously sick until the
last few days. The severe cold
that he suffered with, developed
into pneumonia and having a
weak heart, he sank rapidly, and
died at noon Monday.

Herb lies and Jerry Han
sci Died Last Night,

When our people awoke this
morning they were shocked to
hear of the death of Herb lies,
and also of Jerry Hansel; he
former at $3.50 o clock this morn
ing, the latter at 9:30 last night.
For several days it was we'll known
that Herb lies would have a
struggle to pull through the grim
hold that typhoid fever had on
him, but his friends hoped and
hoped that he would have the
strength to battle down the dread
ed monster. Hemorrhnges set in,
and rendered his case extremely
serious. Three.physicians worked
hard to save him, but at $3.50 this
morning deatirconquered.
The funeral will be held from
the home, Sunday morning. He
leaves a wife and two boys in his
immediate family. He was an
Elk and n Red Men.
The death of Jerry Hansel has
been expected, we might say for
more than n year, but not until
the last two weeks did he give up
to 90 to bed. He was sufferer
of Bright's disease, probably re-
sulting from his work as locomo-
tive engineer, and he has been a
familiar figure on our streets walk
ing about in his declining health.
Jerry had lots of friends that
hoped that some way might be
opened for him to recover his
health, but the dire malady had a
death grip on him, and human
power could not save him. He
was an Odd Fellow and Red Man,
The death of he and Mr.. lies com
ing at once, they being cousins by
marriage, brings double grief on
their families. The funeral will
occur Friday from the M. +.
Church, at 2:30 o'clock.

The Lot Sale a Success

We are glad to announce to TIN e
people of Logan and Hooking
County that we were able to sell

on Saturday.
We will be able next issue to give

the number of lots purchased by
each person.
We hardly expected that we
would be able to sell seventy lots
when we considered the season of
the year at which time we were
offering these lots for sale, and,
especially, is this true, when we
took into consideration the present
money stringency and the sup.
preston of business generally.
To those who patronized us we
extend our highest appreciation.
We still have few choice lots
left which we will offer for sale
through our statesmen, George p,
Work and Frank Rose, who will
be found in. the oflice..on the ground
for the next ten days to come and
who viii take pleasure in showing
these lots, yet unsold, to anyone
who may desire to purchase the
same. EDWIN D. RICKETTs.

1t is not enough in the game OF
