CHURCH OBJECTS
T0CALLS Of FORE.
THE HIDGEWAY PREsBYTERlANs
NEAR DIES MONIES MAKE
TROUBLE FOR GOLFERS

Des Moines, June "a tragedy IN
real life that goes hand In hand with
the expansion Of growing city AS
brought to light when William Molli-
son was granted an injunction by
Judge James A. Howe in the equity
division of the district court restrain
ing the congregation Of Hidgeway's
Presbyterian church from moving the
edifice from its present location eight
miles north OF the city.
For years the pious community
north of Des Moines has met each
Sunday for the weekly devotions IN the
little church standing in clump OF
trees across the road from the new
Hyperion club. The tones OF the bell
have brought Joy and sorrow to nearly
every family in that vicinity and the
church and tiny graveyard beside 1t
have become land mark.
Since the building OF the Hyperion
club and the preparation Of the golf
course, the Sunday morning prayers
have been rudely interrupted with the
"fore'' Of the golf fend, while the
tones OF the wheezy organ have been
drowned by classy ragtime played
on the piano in the club house across
the way.
The attention that Is usually CEN
tered on the sermon has been sadly
distracted by the side glances at some
golhst attempting a hazardous stroke.
And, worst of all, some of the boys
are learning the game and playing
truant from Sunday school.
AS the result of an agitation started
by r. D. Wilson and Jasper Rutgers,
two Of the trustees of the church, the
congregation voted to move the
church one mile south towards the
interurban railroad This is objected
to by several members of the congre-
cation, who hold that the location of
the church is satisfactory for the re-
form OF the club members and that
the object Of the congregation should
be to bring religion into the neigh
boring club as well as the church.
William Mollison, owner of the
ground on which the church stands,
was one of those who seriously OBJ
jected to the change and with view
Of restraining his fellow churchmen,
he appeared before Judge Howe and
secured an injunction preventing any
move on their part.
