GIVES Up
WORK HERE

Rev. j. II. Mccartney, pastor of the
Christian church in Grand Junction
and one of the best known ministers
in the valley, has rendered his resig-
nation 10 the officials of the church
10 take effect us soon as new pas
tor can he secured.
Rev. Mccartney is forced to take
this step owing to the fact that his
throat has given him II great deal of
trouble for the past six or eight
months and he finds that in order
TO recover from the trouble he must
seek another and lower altitude.
The resignation of Rev. Mccartney
is deeply regretted by the great ma
iority OF the members of the church.
He is AN able minister, faithful
conscientious pastor and during the
year that he has been pastor of the
Grand junction church he has done
most effective work. There has been
an increase i'm the membership and II
strengthening and Al growth of all
lines of the church work.
Rev. Mccartney is very popular not
only among the members of his own
congregation but among acquaint-
ances and friends outside of his own
church.
Ihe resignation will be reluctantly
accepted and II new pastor secured Mt
an early date.
The great host of friends of the
popular pastor will hope for a speedy
recovery of his usual good health and
will wish him unbounded success in
whatever pastoratc he continues his
work.

with Boston. If one of these games
is not played by reason of the wealth
er or for other cause or if Boston
wins one, the pennant will go to Chi
cago for the third consecutive year
By winning all three New York will
exactly equal Chicagos percentage of
.641. Chicago leads the league with
.641; Pittsburg is second with .636
and New York. who did not play yes
terday, is third with .663.
The story of the victory is simple
one. Chicago garnered twelve hits
off Willis and Camhitz, while Brown
allowed Pittsburg bat seven. The
contest was cleanly waged through
out. The umplres decisions were
questioned only once and this in
orderly fashion, despite the intense
suppressed excitement under which
the players worked.
President Murphy of the Chicago
club announced the paid attendance
at 3O,241 This. Mr.. Murphy said i,
was the largest attendance ever pres
ent at a game of baseball in the
United States or presumably in the
world. 1t was nearly 1000 larger
than ever passed through the gates
of the West Side ball park.
In figuring on the possible out
come of the race it must be remem-
bered that there is still the famous
tie game played between New York
and Chicago on September "a which
is yet to be finally decided upon. The
arrangements of both teams have ap-
pealed to the board of directors and
on Monday a decision will be rem
dered.

Training.

At the meeting of the school board on
Monday night action was taken to pro-
vide splendid and complete equip
ment for manual training in our school,
and arrangements have been made to
have the equipment put in between now

Garden Grove high school good ways
in advance of any other school in this
part of the state, for it is already on
the accredited list and with this fur
ther great improvement, will stand
second to none. We are very proud Of
the great strides that have been made
in the progress of our school along
every line of work, we have efficient
conscientious instructors in all the de-
partments and excellent work is being
done by the pupils. With a manual
training equipment future is before
the students that will lay open wide
and varied field Of activity. Young
people should realize the inestimable
advantages to be derived from course
in manual training and be ready to
avail themselves of this fine opportun-
isy which lies at hand.-Garden Grove

Food purity.

The National Pure food authorities at
Washington are doing a good work in
educating people to demand quality in
the food they buy. The magazines and
newspapers are also taking up the issue
and emphasizing the need for care in
handling eatables.
This excellent work is measurably
the result of the establishment of the
"sealshipt" method of handling Oys-
ters, method and system which was
some years in advance of the present
movement for purity in foods.
"Sealshipt' Oysters are packed in
galvanized steel container which is
then sealed. Ice is put around the con-
tainer but no ice or water touches the
oysters. The oysters are kept whole
and perfect and their natural flavor and
color are retained, as ice does not crush
them, nor does water bloat or bleach
them, and "dope" is not needed to keep
them.
You will find "sealshipt" Oysters in a
Pure White Porcelain Case which bears
the Blue "Sealshipt" Trade Mark. We
sell "Sealshipt" only.

Go AFTER NEW DEPOT
The Commercial Club and Citizens
Should Take Up the Question of
a new Depot in this City.

Right now is the time for the Com
Aercial Club and the citizens of Leon to
get busy with the agitation for a new
depot in this city. The present frame
structure is entirely inadequate to
to the needs of this station, there is not
sufficient switch tracks, and this city
should have q new and up to- date depot.
Ii everybody will pull together and
make determined effort to secure a
new depot we feel sure that it can be
gained, even if it is necessary to have
the state railroad commissioners visit
this city and make all investigation. 1t
was announced last week that plans
had been prepared for a fine $4,000
depot which will be erected at Center
vile in the spring, and it was secured
by going right after the company and
staying with them until their request
was granted. In this city the present
structure consists of one small room for
passengers, and there is hardly day in
the week that the passengers at this
station could all get inside of the watt
ing room. There is no baggage room,
and the entire depot would not be any
too large to accommodate the vast
amount of freight which is received and
shipped from this station. At present
there is not even an excuse for side
walk leading from the foot of Main
street TO the depot, the cinder path
being used as driveway by the team
sters and passengers must wade
sIhrpugh mud shoe top deep whenever it
rains in order to reach the depot. 80
When the Des Moines and GAINESVILLE
line was built into this city the citizens
Of Leon donated 100000 in cash in addi-
tion to the tax which was voted on a
written contract which provided that
the railroad company should maintain a
depot within one half mile of the public
square and this agreement is recorded
in the county recorders cffice. The
company should be compelled to build a
passenger depot at the foot Of CONNER
cial street and if the grade there is too
steep for their freight trains to stop
they can maintain the old depot for a
freight depot and erect an exclusive
passenger depot nearer the square.
The Commercial Club which has al
ready accomplished many good things
for Leon can do another good turn by
taking this matter up and pushing it
along until success crowns their efforts,
and the members will receive the
thanks of every citizen of Leon and the
travelling public as we'll. 1t was large
u through the efforts of the Commercial
Club that the railroad commissioners
ordered the extension Of the Des
Moines-Van Vert train through Leon to
Mt. Ayr, and recently the commission
ors decided that they had under the
law full power to order the railroad
companies to erect new depots where
such were needed, and if they will in
!svestigate conditions in this city WE
have no fears but what they would
order new depot for us.

a result of being struck by street car
at Ninth and Main streets while dodg-
ing an automobile last night. He has
been taken from the receiving hospital

vey suffered concussion Of the brain

Angeles yesterday to remain with their

patch would Indicate. Mr.. Harvey has
many friends in Leon who sincerely
hope that his injuries are only slight
and that no serious results will follow.

Christmas will fall on Friday this
year and for that reason the ban
against meat eating on Friday by the
Catholics, will be- raised. 1t has been
the custom to raise the ban on Christ
mas, if that day fell on Friday. 1t is 4
very unusual act for the church to
allow the use of meat on Friday, except
when Christmas happens to fall On that
day. However, the privilege was grant
ed few years ago on account of some
celebration, which lent special signifi-
cance to the feast of the Assumption ON
August Is, and on Friday, sixteen years
ago, that privilege was granted during
the celebration of the 400th anniversary
of the landing of Columbus. No ruling
on New Years has been received, but it
is expected that the ban will not be
lifted on this date, as in the church
calendar, this day is the Feast Of the
Circumcision.
