SEVEN SPRINGS

Sunday Oct. Sth, was the appointed
day for the dedication of the house Of
worship at Seven Springs. Notwith-
standing the gloominess of the early
morning, the people commenced to as
semble from different parts of the
county. At 9 o'clock DR.. Powell, Of
Louisville, KY, arrived, whose ser
vices we had engaged for this special
occasion. Bro. Griffith led the congre-
cation with vocal music, after which
DR.. Powell proceeded to the devotional
exercies Of the day. He in his usual
manner, addressed the audience with
a very able sermon, after which a col
lection was taken up to relieve the in
debtedness on the church building
which was $4,000. More than this
amount was very soon raised. The
people, it seemed, were ready to come
to our relief and very ready responded
to this important call. and for this
donation can safely answer for all,
that we were indeed proud and thank
full to God and this people for what
they have done for US. And now we
want to say that we can never ex-
press our heartfelt thanks to DR..
Powell for what he did for our church
for we believe that he is the right
man in the right place, and we believe
this to be God-sent ealing for him
from our Lord Jesus Christ, and we
were so proud to have other preachers
with US, besides brethren and sisters
from other churches, together with
our beloved pastor, Rev. u. G. Hughes.
At IL O'Clock sumptious dinner was
served, prepared by our good friends
and neighbors. In the afternoon Bro.
Clark preahed very impressive sermon
We suppose there was ne one went
away from this place without their
dinner, for the good women had pre-
pared plenty for this occasion, and the
writer did not want single individual
to go from this place without partak-
ing of the food so necessary to life.
Now in conclusion, we say we are
thankful to the building committee
and to the many people, who contribu-
ted SO literally and also our good pas
tor for what he Ii doing and what he
may yet do, and may he be spared to
hold up the banner Of our living God
to a lost and ruined world, and when
life's journey is ended and we go
home to live with God and the re-
deemed host of God, | want to see
those people there that met with US on

this memorial day, and now we see
through a glass darkly, but then face
to face we shall meet them together
with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ
to whom we want to give all the honor
and the praise for giving us a being
in the world. -MRs. NOSE l.. PATTON.

With the certainty that Chicago's in

receipts for the 10 weeks about to close
OF approximately half a million dollars,
announcement was made last night
that the public which has paid in this
money will be rewarded by an even
greater company, better artists and
larger repertoire next winter.
The uncertainty which has existed
about a continuance of the grand op-
era company another year was swept
aside definitely last night when careful
figuring, based on the big sales expe-
rienced in st. Paul, where the company
is now playing. convinced General
Manager Andreas DIPPED there would
be no deficit.
THE Chicago Grand Opera company
has made good" said DIPPED last night.
THE Chicago public has shown con-
clusively that 1t appreciates grand OPP

be found a public SO appreciative of

tres of that country. the two in Berlin
where the expenses are about the same
as in Chicago. and which. in addition,
have a government subsidy. do not
show the receipts that we do in Chi

LARGER COMPANY PROMISED.
Next year we will have a larger
company and better artists. Letters
and reservations already received show
$4,000 more a night than the present
season, which averaged $4,000 a night
That means we can figure on nearly
$4,000 night next winter With these
additional funds we already are plan
ming big things. Some of the innova-
tons in view are Tristan and Isolde"
and THE Walkyries" in English. Also
the Humperdinck opera, The Kings

Other possibilities next season are

OSCULATORY COMMANDMENT
NEARLY DROWNED PUCCINI.
All Masculine Members of Opera Com.
pany Sped Composer Seward.

When Puccini. the italian composer
who did the music for the grand opera
production Of ''The Girl of the Golden
West" sailed for home from New
York he was most extensively kissed
up.
Headed by Gatti-CasazZa, the direc-
tor, and Amato, the baritone, forty OF
the men singers and chorus men of
the Metropolitan organization went to
the pier to see their cOmpatriot off.
There were no lady song birds there.
The hour WAS too early. But couple
of hundred of Puccini's enthusiastic
fellow countrymen stood on the string
pieces and checred.
When the shore bell rang the kissing
started. In a body the Metropolitan
group charged on Puccini. Like a
brave man he met them. with arms
extended and lips pouted.
4 sound like somebody taking of a
pair of wet galoshes in a hurry.
That was Gatti-Casazzis double kiss,
one for each cheek of Puccini.
A sound like Bessie the Brindle pull
ing her hind foot out of the mud.
That was Amato's fervent salute.
A sound like somebody strOpping a
razor rapidly!
That was Scott. the basso. putting
seven or eight quick ones over.
A series of sounds suggestive Of
drowning kittens in a well,
That was the minor stars taking
their turns.
A succession Of sounds like 5000
harelipped actors drinking their chow
der from the end Of the spoon.
That was the chorus men.
a grand medley. slashino. crashing,
smashing liquid sounds like the waters
coming down at LAHORE,
That was everybody kicking in at
once for q last chance.
Puccini drowned game. He was res
cued as he went down for the last
time with a low. gurglinG cry, taken
to his stateroom. pumped out, dried off
with rough towels.
But il was Il close call.
