SPEND Pleasant Afternoon With Pastor

The home of Rev. and Mrs. G. H. Schles-
selman was the scene of merry party
Tuesday afternoon. A number of the
members of his church and their friends
gathered at the parsonage shortly after
eleven o'clock with baskets filled with
all thegoo things of earth and proceeded
to make spread that would do justice
to king. The occasion was the Both
birthday of their pastor, and the dinner
hour, and the few succeeding hours
were spent in a most pleasant manner.
Rev Schlesselman has endeared him
self in the hearts of his friends to a
wonderful extent, in the few years that
he has been'with his congregation, and as
an expression of their high esteem of
his noble character and excellent
leadership, he was presented purse of
$l25O. This the pastor accepted in a
manner that convinced the donors that
he appreciated the gift but left unmis-
taxable assurance that their loyalty and
friendship was of much more pleasure
to him than any amount of money that
they could have given him.
