CITY PASTORS
BACK TO WORK
Only Few Of Them Extending
Their Vacation Until
September

Now that the hot weather is passing
and the vacation times Of most persons
are drawing to a close. the churches
which during the summer have partially
been closed are reopening for the fall
and winter work. The duties of the
average minister Increase daily, and with
growing congregations the demands OF
visiting, participation in the activities
of the church societies and sick calls,
not forgetting the constant effort OF the
sermons, are firing and a strain physi-
cally and mentally. After the labor OF
the winter the vacation Of the summer is
a welcome change. and to escape for a
few weeks from the demands Of city life
is as essential for the health Of the min
lister as for the average man.
While ministers are away their charges
are usually filled by assistant pastors or
visiting pastors give special sermons. AS
the congregations dwindle during July
and August, while the seashore and
mountain resorts are busiest, Il is NOT
necessary to have as frequent services
as in the winter Most Methodist min
listers have returned. and with the ex-
ception Of the Rev. II. w. Kellogg there
are few ministers away from home. AT
the churches of other denominations the
case is practically the same. The Rev
F. NJ Kirkus is enjoying his vacation
and the Rev. Alexander Alison, of Wes
Presbyterian Church has not returned
home.

Mice and matches caused a fire last
evening in the grocery store and maca-

northwest corner Of Fifth and Walnut
streets. A loss of about $1,000 was en-

was confined to the grocery store and did
not reach the macaroni factory on the

forfeit and for which crime a man is
now serving long term in prison.

NOW DRAWN UP

City Council will probably consider
new ordinance drafted by Chief En-
gineer Porter, of the Fire Department,
on next Thursday night. The measure
has to do with the assignment of boxes
to the various companies The new
measure was drawn up as a result Of
the complaint made by the Water
Witch Fire Company to City Council
that the new fire alarm card was not
printed in accordance with the ordi-
nance.
The Friendship Company complains
that it was cut off several boxes and
in explaining this Chief Porter says
that he made the change so that the
company might be saved some long
runs and also so that it could be kept
in its district more.
