An Appreciation of Lincoln \

BY R0berGms Love

q OMEWHAR down thar round Hodgenville, Kaintuoky,
Or tharabouts, a hundred year ago,
Was born a boy ye wouldn' thought was lucky;
Looked like he never wouldn' have a show.
But y y y I dom know.
That boy was started middin' well, I'm thinkin'.
His name2 Wy, it was Abraham-Abe Lincoln.
DORE whites his folks vast Yes, as pore as any.
Them pioneers, they want no plutocrats;
Belonged right down among the humble many,
And no more property than dogs or cats.
But y y " maybe that's
As good a way as any for a startin'.
Abe Lincoln, he rz middlin' high, for sartin!
q OMEH0W I've always had a sort O. sneakin'
Idee that ~peddygrees is purity much
Like monkeys tails-so long they're apt to weaken
The yp that drags 'em round. No use for suchl
But = y y beats the Dutch
How now and then a lad like Little Ably
Grows up a president-or guvnor, maybe.

CHRISTIAN CHURCH
1888 IN SUNDAY SCHOOL
BOASTS or THE LARGEST EN-
RoLLMENT IN THIS PART OF
THE STATE - 1923 ACTUAL
NUMBER OF MEMBERS = SIX.
TY VISITORS.

In response to the appeal of It's
Superintendent, J.. W. Dry. last Sun
day week ago, that the 972 mem
bers then enrolled in the Sunday
School be present and that each
make It his special duty to bring a
new pupil the next time, the total
enrolment Of the First Christian
Church was swelled to 1923 and
the attendance to 1893, Sunday
new members added to the enrollmen
and with the 60 others, who were WIS.,
itors, the attendance was a record
breaker. This Sunday School now
boasts Of having the largest enroll
ment Of any Sunday School in this
part Of the State.
Much enthusiasm was displayed, In
spite of the fact that no special pro-
gram was prepared for the occasion,
but only the regular Sunday School
lesson was studied. So great was
the emotion caused by the large at
tendance that some of the older mem
bers wept with Joy, while others said
they could hardly keep from
shouting when the total was made
known by the superintendent. Both
old and young, and many who ha
not been to Sunday School in years
were out and the day was n OF
much rejoicing.
About a year ago considerable at
~tention was attracted by this church
when its pastor, the Rev. Walter
NJ. White, and the Sunday School
superintendent began advertising in
the local papers for their Sunday
School. About this time 1t was also
announced that an attendance Of
1000 by June list, 1909, was hoped
for. Ever since a persistent cam
paign for new members has been in
dulged in by the members and es
pecially the pastor. its superintendent
and the ladies' of the church, and
efforts were not in vain, as was
SHOWN by the total attendance Sun
day.
One feature of the attendance
should be noted and this is the en-
rollment of the two adult Bible class
es, the Mexico Mems Glass and the
Twentieth Century Bible Glass. Thu
former had an enrolment OF 175
while the latter had 276 members
to their credit.
