Canton's Roundhouse.

Canton at last has a round house.
For years past a ronnd house was
somthing that Canton needed very
badly. but the Milwaukee did not
deem it necessary to put n in, but
perfered to have their engines stand
out or else drag them farther away
and when there was a call for them,
the people would have to wait. The
new round house will accommodate
two engines and still have plenty of
room for repairing and it is nicely
located on the south side OF the main
track and not In an out of way place.
This means more people for Canton,
better service, and last, but not least,
a better opening for manufactures, as
Canton is the only logical point in
South Dakota that easily can be reach
ed by any o%utlaying point and the
round house only betters conditions
and freight service.

The Gospel Meetings.

If the expression ''safe and sane
were not a good deal overworked we
would use it again to describe the
! work and the results of the special
meetings at the Methodist church
which are still continuing with I'M
diminished interest and power. 1t is
being demonstrated that al appeal tC
the thoughtful Judgment of men, tc
their conscience and sense of right,
is forceful and effective. A great
scene was that Of last Friday night,
when after a strong sermon by DR..
Shepherd the call for those who de-
sired to begin the Christian life to
come forward was answered by a
great company of young and old who
packed the open space in front of the
platform and filled the aisles neal by
on either side. Conversions have
taken place every night since first
the invitation has been urged but
this and the ingathering of Sunday
morning we're the greatest that have
so far been seen. Decision Day was
held in the Sunday school on Sunday
for all the grades above the primary
and when the invitation was made to
stand in token of acceptance of Christ
as a personal Savior the whole school
rose unanimously and most OF those
not already members of the church
enrolled themselves upon invitation
to the step.
Wednesday night of this week was
business mems night and in spite OF
the stormy weather a goodly number
of the business and professional men
of the city heard the sermon on "a
Shrewd Merchant" founded on the
parable of the pearl of great price.
Thursday afternoon is Old Peoples
Day, and on Friday evening the pupils
and teachers of the high school will
be the especial guests. The meetings
will close on Sunday evening and
Prof. Gilmore, who has rendered such
good service and won a place for him
self in the regard of all attendants Of
the meetings will depart on Monday
for other fields of usefulness.
