Church News

Rev. ]. E. Abbott, pastor of the
First Presbyterian church, at the
conclusion OF his sermon Sunday
morning, announced that he had
accepted the call OF the Presbyter-
ian Synod of Missouri to serve as
state evangelist, provided the con-
gregation would release him. He
had received this call three times
before and said that while he pre-
ferred to remain in Marshall he
felt it his duty to accept the place.
The matter will be considered at
congregational meeting on. Sun
day morning, Jan. I'd. Rev. Abb
bott is no doubt the right man for
the place he has been asked to fill,
although he is very much liked as
pastor also and the Marshall
church seems 10th to part from him
Miss Eleanor Lynch, sent out by
the First Presbyterian church as
a missionary to China, leaves San
Francisco on Dec. 2Sth on the Jap
anese steamer Tenyo Marn. In
honor of the occasion the prayer
meeting service at the First Pres
byterian church will be held on
Tuesday evening, Dec. 2sth, in
stead of Wednesday evening, and
will be in the interest of her mis-
sion.
The Baptist Sunday School will
have its Christmas cnter ainmen:
Friday night.

Hair Rat Saved Her Life

Miss Lillian Kreiser, of Kansas
City who teaches here every Fri
day and Saturday, had fall on an
icy walk in Kansas City on Mon
day that rendered her unconscious
and bruised her SO badly that she
was confined to her room till Fri
day. She said she fell backward
and her head struck the hard pave
ment but the force of the fall was
much broken by the fact that her
hair acted as cushion.

tends to press the bonnet outward.
Sometimes, TOO. the fastenlngs are
not very good, or occasionally the

case IL is no wonder the air currents
caused by the high speeds make the

frequently used on racing cars, a
