Of high character and business
ability, respected by the other de-
nominations of the town, and liked
by the public in general, possess
ing that happy faculty of being
able to meet the children of the
town upon the streets and calling
them by name, and they all know
and love him.
We regret indeed to lose him,
hut %cheerfully commend him to the
people and church to which he
may be sent as a faithful pastor
and a true man, one worthy of
their full confidence and esteem,
and trust that his labor of love
in his new field may be blessed of
God as it has been with US.
Therefore, be it resolved, that
a copy of this be given to each

COMING!

We are and have been having a
feast of mind at our Ch%autauqua
Mrs. Pickett's great address will
linger in the memories of peo-
pie until death. The next event
will be the revival at the Chris
tan church, beginning the first
Sunday in September, to be con-
Quoted by the pastor, assisted by
Ed. e. T. Mcfarland, one of our
hest pastors and evapgelists. Come
and hear him and you, will be
blessed in the coming and the
hearing. v
After the above date, Sept. S,
1909, there will be preaching ev-
cry evening at 1880. Our members
are earnestly ~entreated to be in
attendance from the beginning to
the close. Our friends are cordi-
ally invited and will receive a
hearty welcome. w. A.. Mclean

AS the four year limit will re-
quire our pastor, Bro. H. d.
Thompson, to leave us for other
fields of labor at the close of this
year, the official board of the
church feel it proper and just at
this time to give expression of
our appreciation Of the most ex-
cellent work that Bro. Thompson
has done in our midst during that
time.
We do not recall in the twenty
years or more that we have been
acquainted with this church of a
period in which the church has en-
ioyed a greater degree of pros
perity. The spiritual and temporal
interest of the church have been
advanced to a marked degree, and
to-day Montgomery City church
is ranked among the best in the
Conference, due largely to the I'M
firing efforts and ability of our
pastor. We recognize in him a
Pastor of sterling worth, a man

united with the M. E. church South

A husband, son, sister, three

Her tasks complete at life's high

She leaves us for the home on

Bequeathing, though, a wond'rous

A life we'll lived that cannot die.
And by this mighty bond may we
Be drawn to higher, nobler

Till we, perfected, her shall see
Where loves perennial beauty
springs.

A E SCHOOL.

The recent summer term of the
State Normal School at Kirksville
enrolled more than 600 teachers,
and had $50 of them present in
the closing program, Aug. 10, thus
breaking all records. Out of over
one hundred graduates, all but
three have positions such as they
desired, and the School has calls
for more than fifty teachers in
high schools and rural schools that
it cannot furnish. Some thirty or
forty OF the graduates had offers
of from three to five good posi-
tons each. 1t is evident that the
demand for teachers next year
will still be greater than the sup
ply. Hence great preparations are
made for teachers courses in the
coming year.
There will be numerous classes
in the advanced phases of good
old-fashioned Arithmetic, Gram
mar, History, Composition, Letter
Writing, etc.
The Commercial Department will
be crowded with ambitious stu
dents learning Shorthand, Book
keeping, Commercial Geography,
Typewriting, etc.
Seventy-five teachers took work
in the laboratories of the Agricul-
ture Department during the sum-
mer. Its Library, Laboratories and
Gardens are among the best in
the country.
The last graduating class fur
nished supervisors of Music and
Art for public schools in five diff
ferent states. Graduates in other
courses have choice among the
best high school positions and SUI
perintendencies. Several gradu-
ates OF the Elementary Courses
have rural school positions at
from $50 to $50 per month, while
those who have attended one year
all get good paying positions Of
the kind for which they prepare
themselves.
Tuition So per term of IL weeks.
Room and board, 1925 to 1878 per

GASOLINE ENGINE FOR PLOW.
Owing to the scarcity of labor,
Brice Muir, a farmer near Salina,
Kansas, has equipped his farm
with a gasoline engine and a six
disk pillow. This piece of machin-
cry promises now to solve the la
Dor problem and revolutionize the
work of preparing wheat land in
large tracts. With this pillow Mr..
Muir can turn IS to is acres of
ground in a day of ten holrs, at
less expense than employ ag men
and teams. A gallon OF gas oline to
the acre and the time of one man
is about the only expense attached
to running the engine and pillow.

FERTILE LANDS AT LOW PRICES
Western Kansas and Eastern Colorado
Land Within the Reach Of All.

AS the country becomes more
thickly populated, and the prices
of really good farm land continue
to go higher, it becomes necessa-
ry for men of moderate means,
| who desire to w a farm of their
| own, to follow the course of en-
| pire, which it is said takes it's
way westward.
Perhaps there is no more desir-
aole land, at a low price, than
can be found in western Kansas
and Eastern Colorado. Realizing
that there was a demand for such
land, Mr.. w. r. Pennington of
this city made an extended ossi-
ness trip to that part of the coun-
try during July and personally
Investigated the land that was to
De had at a reasonable price. He
finally decided that the soil, eli
mate and ABUNDANT water supply,
taken in consideration with the
price, made the land about Syr-
acuse, Kansas, and Towner, Colo
RADIO, about the best proposition
to offerto farmers and home
seekers that could De found.
The firm OF Pennington & Jones
of this city now are in a position
to offer the public 100000 acres
of fine, rich, fertile land, deep
soil, at the very low price of
$3.50 per acre, in tracts of 100
acres or more. The land is a choc-
olate loan, 50 inches deep, and
will produce as large crops Of
wheat, corn, ETC., as the oottom
lands of this state. 1t also pro-
duces three crops of alfalfa a
season and is particularly well
adapted to the production of po-
tatoes and vegetables. An abun-
dance OF pure, soft water is found
at a depth of ABOUT IS feet. The
annual rainfall is about the same
as in Missouri. If you are looking
for a location and want to buy
really desirable, productive land
at a low price investigate this
land.
Home seekers excursions the
first and third Tuesdays of each
month. Round trip tickets from

commercial supremacy which is
now centering around the Pacific,
and it is intended that the dis
cussion of this question at its
meeting will develop a memorial
to be presented to the national
Congress setting forth the necess-
ity Of such adjustment as will
remove this embargo upon
American industries.
The United States is at the
same time one of the principal
silver producing countries, and
China and India mostlargely i'm.
port their bullion from us. An
extended use of silver, which
would befollowed by an enhanced
priced, would enable America to
assume a commanding position
with reference to Oriental trade.
No more important question
could be taken up for considera-
ton by the American Mining
Congress, and the discussion of
the subject by such men as Sir
Moreton Frewen, the eminent
English economist, John Hays
Hammond, james ]. Hill and
Others, ought to result in its be
ing brought forcibly to the
attention of the national Con-
gress.

After a thorough test Of the
single gold standard, forced up
on the American people by the
Wall street manipulators who
control the financial policy OF our
government, the business men of
the country are awakening to
the fact that they have once
more been lured into the sugar
coated trap set for them by the
money kings, and that it is abso-
lutely necessary that some action
be taken at once to restore silver
to it's rightful position as a
standard, and not as a subsid-
larry money subject to fiuctua-
tions of value for the benefit OF
the money lenders and bankers
of New York, London and other
financial centers.
At d coming session of the
American Mining Congress to be
held at Goldfield New, in Sep
TENDER, noted men in the ma
tion's industrial political life will
engage in a discussion of the re-
lation of the value of silver to
the adjustment of trade relations
with silver using countries, and
of giving to silver as money such
extended use and stability of
price as will greatly reduce, if not
entirely eliminate, the high mar
gin of exchange Oriental silver
must now pay for our gold.
These phases of the silverques-
ton have no relation to the
"Free Silver" doctrines so prom
inent in national politics in the
nineties. At that time American
bankers and business men, so
thoroughly averse to the use of
silver in measuring values,
sought to relegate all discussion
of the silver question, but in the
light of more recent years, when
our trade is in such dire peril of
being swept from the Orient,
when manufacturing industries
are being transported bodily to
Asiatic countries where cheap
silver purchases cheap labor,
there arises an imminent necess-
ity for such adjustment OF trade
relations as will enable the mer-
chant supplying more than half
the human race to buy American
products on a gold basis.
From time immemorial the
money of the worlds people was
silver. Formerly these peoples
were not considered as impor-
tant factors in the business OF
manufacturing countries, but
now the merchant sees in them
his most fertile field for trade.
Yet these markets are closing be.

of silver with its consequent pro.

gold.
