by other churches of the state. That is system of weekday musical instruction.
 A handsome piano was placed in the new church by the officers and members and MT. Ashcraft suggested that all the members of the church should be receive the maximum of benefits from this instru- ment. He argued that many families were not able to own a piano and se- cure the benefits of musical training for their children, and he suggested that the more fortunate young ladies of the con- gregation conduct regular weekday in- struction classes for young girls and children free of cost
 The idea was popular one, and the young ladies and women readily volun teered to give their time and services to the labor of love and community uplift.
 The results have been wonderful. They are twofold. The poorer classes are not only greatly beneftted, but the better classes are given an opportunity to get in closer touch and to feel more sympathy for those that are more unfortunate
 The work has been a great power in strengthening the influence of the church and in the general elevation of the com munity.
 Mayor C. w. Ashcraft Is superintendent of the Sunday school and is an active leader in the other departments of the churchs work
