The people of Berkeley are urged TO
prepare more exhibits for the Chicago
Land Show. Mr.. Theodore lmbach, of

ter them, and he is anxious that the

this matter than they are.
So far Hampshire county leads all
the State along this line. The peo-
pie of that county have prepared the
largest variety OF exhibits they ever
have. and win have them ready for
shipment when the time arrives. In
their list will be found everything the
country produces, and those who have
prepared them have taken special
pride in their work. They expect good
results from Chicago
Jefferson county closely follows
Hampshire, while Berkeley is so far
behind that she can scarcely bee seem
Why there is so much opposition to
the show is more than can be learned,
and those who are working for the
show are anxious that the county
make a special effort between now
and November 10 to increase the list.
Mr. lmbach viii ship all exhibits
free of charge to Chicago. they viii
be sent by express, leaving this sec
ton on November Is, and he urges ali
TO be ready when that time comes. He
has left a frank number at The World
Office which can be gotten by those
who decide to be represented. Or

RECEPTION TO
REV. MR.. GLUCK
New Pastor of Reformed Church
Makes Favorable Impression on
Notable Occasion

Rev A. NJ. Gluck, the new pastor
of Christ Reformed church, was tend
cred a reception by the members Of
the congregation last night from s to
1890 o'clock During that time near
Is five hundred people passed in and
greeted the new minister who recent
ly came here from Emmitsburg, Nd.
The reception was held in the chap
ell at the rear of the church and
which was deliberately decorated for
the occasion. Around the room and
the three galleries was gracefully
hung mass of autumn leaves and
vines. The pulpit in the chapel had
been removed and on the platform
was banked a profusion OF palms and
ferns, while cut flowers here and there
adorned the room. The electric bulbs
were covered with paper of varied
hue, producing 1ightt effect that was
soft and beautiful In fact the dec
orations were all in consummate
taste and were much admired. 3
Standing on one side of the large
chapel was the receiving line, consist
ing of the deacons and elders of the
church, with Rev. Mr.. Gluck at the
head They were Messrs. James B.
Fisher, Martin l.. Brown, George s.
Hollida, William d. Myers and X
Poole, deacons, and Messrs. John T.
Reynolds, William b. Cushwa, E. ID.
Rauch and d. NJ Kilmer, elders AS
the people entered the chapel from
the vesdbule they passed along the
receiving line, greeted by each church
officer in turn, and lastly introduced
to the pastor himself. at the head of
the line. For every one he had a
pleasant word of greeting, and little
chat in almost every instance. Nearly
all of the ministers of the town and
their wives called to greet the new
pastor and all were niost cordially re
ceived. This was a marked feature
of the reception. Rev. Mr.. Gluck was
in high spirits and his frank, cordial
and friendly manner made most
favorable impression on all.
After the introduction formalities,
the people passed behind the receiv-
ing line and were served with light
refreshments. This pleasant diver
sion relieved any stiffness that may
have been experienced and paved the
way for general coommingling of
the people in a social hour that was
enjoyable in the highest degree, and
fulfilled one of the purposes of
the reception itself.
At intervals during the reception
the Thursday Club, Miss Emma Stall
ey, leader entertained the people. with
some pleasing musical numbers, The
orchestra was at its best and the mus
ic was feature of the happy occas-
ion.
There was a sprinkling of children
at the reception and il was noticed
that Rev Mr.. Gluck showed them
marked attention, evincing beautiful
fondness for children.
The reception the first one Of the
sort held by the congregation for
more than a generation, was well ap.
pointed and most successfully carried
out, and the event win linger long as
a pleasant memory in the hearts of
all.
Too much credit cannot be given
the ladies for the beautiful Gecora-
lions and the thoughtful entertain
ment of the people, all of which con
spired so much to make the affair the
complete success it was
