There was large gathering at the NJ.
E. church last Sunday as it was noted
last week that a rededication service
would be held. The exercises were well
carried out. The choir was assisted by
Rob Ryder, bass, Miss Beth Ryder, alto,
and C. NJ. Baker, tenor. Several an
thems were rendered. The Congrega-
tional people were present in good num-
bers. Their pastor, Rev. Bailey, assist
ing in the services. The sermon proper
was given by Supt. Dow, who also spoke
in the evening. The church has been
thoroughly repaired, mostly by the
Ladies' Aid society. A steel ceiling has
been put in, new carpet and altar chairs
and pulpit and sofa; also chairs for or
chestra and the whole inside nicely
painted. This part was done by the pas
tor. 1t is now in fine order and with the
earnest efforts of the pastor ought to
draw house full each Sunday.
No rain has come to us as yet and
formers wear sober faces. Hay, what
there is, is being put in as fast as posi-
BILE. The extreme heat has made it al.
most impossible to push matters. The
thermometers at Nowton's central regis
tered 102 degrees on Tuesday and 80 and
50 at different places.
