Hear Strong Memorial Sunday Dis
course by Rev. ]. Jas. DePree

The weather man in his wisdom
withheld the all too oft recurring
showers during last Sunday forenoon.
This may have been to honor the day.
it having been set apart for the time
of the union services held to recall
the heroic services of the Northern
veterans who sprang to arms to pro-
tect the nation in the troublous times
of l860-65. Be that as it may, the
birds sang cheerily from the trees,
and all nature responded to the rays
of the sun. and an ideal day seemed
at hand.
BY resolution passed some time
ago Rev. j. j. DePree, pastor of the
Presbyterian church had been re-
quested by the post to give the
Memorial sermon. the old soldiers
we'll knowing that a man so filled
with love of country. whose record
in the community has been so con-
sistent with his professions, would
deliver an effort worthy of the occa-
sion In this particular the patriotic
orders and the people who crowded the
Presbyterian church last Sunday were
not disappointed. 1t is always q
beautiful sight to see the worthy Ex-
Union soldiers march to the church in
a body, followed by the Sons of Vet
Grams and the W. r. C. Itgives evil
dence that the spirit of loyalty will
not soon die.
The opening prayer was made by
Rev. LaReau of the Baptist church
and the special music given by Miss
Hazel Nash and Mrs. Adeline Luney
Friend. They sang very we'll. The
sermon covered goodly range of
ground Gone of the leading thoughts
came from the bible history when God
commanded the Children of Israel to
set up memorial stones after their
successful crossing of the Jordan tc
the Promised Land. They were tolc
to be we'll posted themselves SO that
when the children asked what the huge
piles of stone meant. they could tell
them. Facing the present prosperity.
with peace. the nation united. it was
we'll to explain that this came through
the heroic sacrifices of the loyal men
of the Civil War times. These men
were true to the flag. to their convic-
| zion of right. With much force the
speaker urged his hearers to stand
now for sound principles and CIVIC
righteousness. Many took occasion
to personally thank Rev. DePree for
the sermon. which ranks with one of
the best delivered in Denison on a
similar occasion.

THE BACCALAUREATE ADDRESS
Dr.. J. Il. Senseney Delivers Great Sermon
to the Graduates on Sunday Even.
ing at Presbyterian Church

Upon puplit platform beautified
with plants and flowers and the '09
class colors. white and red. in profu-
sion displayed, DR.. Senseney of the
Methodist church delivered the Bacca-
laureate sermon before the High
School last Sunday evening. The
event took place in the Presbyterian
church and it was crowded so that the
ushers contemplated turning people
away. The special music was given
by the High School Glee clubs of the
girls and boys. and they showed many
excellent voices.
On being called on at recent
gathering for an address, DR.. Senseney
declared he disliked to talk without
some thought on the subject at hand.
1t was evident from his address on
last Sunday evening that he had given
that thought which always seems to
have preceded his stated appearances
on the platform. The sermon was
based On the parable of the talents
from which the lesson drawn by the
Master was plainly seen to be. that
one must du the best he can with
the abilities God has given him, and
that then He is satisfied. In apply
ing this to the graduates. the speaker
reminded them that they had been
given great talents and opportunities
in that they had the education of the
Denison schools. He then called to
mind that our country was never
greater and stronger than at the pres
ent time. There were the greatest
posi- biities for the brightest minds
in hundred different avocations in
life. Problems in science. mechanics,
practically applied, are needing to be
Investigated and solved. In setting
these forth, DR.. Senseney showed
broad comprehension of what has been
going on in the scientific world, and
all hearers were enlightened. The
class could not have failed to have
been helped in the future activities.
That DR.. Senseney rose to the occasion
is said by all who were able to attend
the exercises that evening.

Mr.. George Sprecher has rendered
his resignation as Deputy Postmaster
of Denison. to take effect on July
18th. Mr.. Sprecher has been in con-
tinuous service at the Denison Office
between nine and ten years. He was
Deputy under Mr.. Boynton and he re-
tanned the position under Mr.. Meyers.
He has been popular and efficient
clerk. always CHEEKY and acccommo-
dating and he is young man of
scrupulous honesty. He is possessed
of considerable means and there is no
question but that he has ahead of him
a successful business career which
will pay him much better than a SAL
aried position. For the benefit of any
who may be looking for trouble, we
would say that there isn't any. The
postmaster and the deputy have been.
are and will continue to be very good
friends. Mr.. Sprecher feels that his
experience in the Denison office will
be valuable asset to him but that he
can now employ his time and capital
to better advantage. He has not de-
cided upon his future course but
after rest up he is sure to get
busy and we sincerely hope he will
find in Denison the opening he de-
sires.

Put the sugar, salt and scalded

give it shape, as well as to more thor
oughly mix the ingredients, and then
set 1t to rise in room of 70 degrees
Fahrenheit. Cover it closely with an
old tablecloth, that the top may not
dry out, and leave it in peace for
eight hours. Most people like to put
their bread to rise over night, mixing
1t late in the evening and baking 1t
the first thing in the morning. Or one
can mix 1t in the morning and bake 1t
just before dinner.
II 1t has not risen sufficiently in the
allotted time 1t is sign that the room
was not warm enough during some
portion of the time Of rising. On the
other hand, too warm room or too
long a period of rising will sour the
dough. The proper amount Of rise is
just double the original bulk.
Before baking, knead the dough for
five minutes on bread board, to dis
tribute the large bubbles and so make
the bread finer grained. Mixing
knives are now more generally used
than ones fists for this operation.
Lastly, shape 1t into loaf by doubling
the edges under again, and again until
you have a smooth, oblong mound,
place 1t in an oiled baking pan, let 1t
rise quickly in warm place until 1t
again doubles itself, and bake in an
oven which is hot at first, but which
gradually decreases in temperature,
for an hour and a quarter.
