FAREWELL RECEPTION.

On Sunday morning, Rev. SIN Wiz
son, preached his farewell sermon at
the First Presbyterian church, to very,
large congregation. The members of
the Nj. E. church united with the Pres
byterians in the morning services on
this occasion aid there were many from
other congregi tions. DR.. Wilson took
for his theme: The Two Conditions of
Progress" and his sermon was very
able one.
Rev. Wilson has been pastor of the
First Presbyterian church since Janu-
airy, 1901, and under his very able work
the congregation has increased in mem
bership and the church fiourished.and
has grown stronger year by year. The
work and responsibilities also became
greater in proportion until he felt that
it was more than he could undertake,
considering the many years he had
given to the ministry. He submitted
his resignation six weeks ago, much to
the regret of the church mem bers. He
has accepted the pastorate of the First
Presbyterian church at Reedsburg,
Wis, to which city he will go next
week
Last evening farewell reception was
rendered DR.. and Mrs. S. N. Wilson by.
the church congregation. Every room
in the church was brilliantly lighted
and very large number of citizens,
generally, turned out to bid farewell
to Rev. and Mrs. Wilson. The follow
ing program was carried out during
the evening:
Piano solo. .-....... Miss Wanda Hopp
Solo-"The Nightingale's Song" Neyin
Miss Sadie Rosenberg.
Reading-"The Gypsy Flower Girl'
MISS Marie BRANDS
