Lovelock tribune. (Lovelock, Nev.) 1898-1912, 1910-09-01
METHODIST MINISTER'S
LOUD in PRAISE OF
LOVELOCK
By Rev. A. P. CopPRDcE

Il is hardly worth while to enter
into detailed account of the Mission
meeting held in Lovelock last week
The program as printed was followed
closely in the transaction OF business.
Bishop Hughes presided in his usual
happy and inmitable way, a way
which secures for himself the love OF
all his preachers.
The reports made by the superln-
tendent land pastors show that the
fyear just closed has been one OF hard
work and that a fair degree of success
has rewarded these earnest efforts for
the cause of Christ and the good OF
Nevada.
The addresses of the visiting
brethren were thoughtful, earnest and
helpful to the brethren and added
much to the pleasures of the occasion.
We would like to say word Of
special commendation for the address
ses of Rev. Dexter, pastor at Gold
field and superintendent of the Anti
Saloon League. Not that 1t exceeds
others in oratorical merit, but because
the cause represented is one OF such
vital interest to the people of this
state at this time.
For the resident pastor and his
wife only good has been heard.
They have labored necessarily for the
comfort of their guests and backed by
what must have been host, of good
people, they fed those hungry preach
ers to the verge of dyspepsia, while
sleeping accomodations were foun-
ded by the good people of Lovelock.
All meals were served in the church
dining room. One Of the best cooks
in Nevada presided in the church
kitchen, and the most dyspeptic
could not resist the tempting yiands
and soothy drinks evolved by herself
and her capable assistants.
There was good natured contest
over the selection of place for hold
ing the next meeting, Reno, Green
vile, Winnemucca and Big Pine,
asking for it the merits of the various
places were set forth in glowing terms
by the pastors of those towns, but
nothing could resist the soaring elo-
quence of the pastor at Big Pine and
that place was chosen. Little Marcie
White made it her business to furnish
sweet pea blossoms for the button
holes of all the clergical coats pres
ent, and this petty attention was very
pleasing to the grave and renewed
D. DIS. and L. L. DIS.
The appointment of ministers to
various chasges was announced at
the conclusion of the Sunday even
ing services Alex McAllen who
has been preaching in Southern Cal
ifornia was appointed to the Love-
lock charge. In making the appoint
ment the Bishop stated that Rev. Nc

musi cian.
