SPEND DAY IN
A NOVEL WAY
Gary Young Men Will Put
Concrete Floor in
House of Worship.

The young men Of the Gary Con-
gregatipnal church have decided upon
a novel way for spending their
Thanksgiving. Under the leadership
of their pastor, the Rev. A. J. Sullens,
the young men will don overalls and
jumpers and go to the First Congre-
gational church, which is now under
construction and there lay a concrete
floor in the basement of the church.
1t will undoubtedly be much fun for
the young men, especially those who
have never handled a shovel in their
life. Many of the young men are en-
ployed in Offices and naturally their
hands are very tender. and by the time
they finish handling the heavy con-
crete their friends promise that they
will have a good oppetite for their
Thanksgiving turkey.
The invitation to work for the bene-
fit OF the church is not confined to the
young men, the Rev. Sullens having
also extended it to allow the skilled
laborers who care to lend their aid
to the church.

he has no fixed principles and no we'll
