BOWERS

This community was visited with SON e
very cold weather the past Saturday and
Sunday evenings; having produced two
very light frOsts and skin of ice. We
presume that famous iceberg that put
the i'll fated Titanic out of commission,
is still on its mission of destruction and
has entered our capes and is on its way
up the coast trying to put the farmers
in this section out of business, but so
far there has been no material damage
reported.
Our minister, Brother Mathews gave
us a grand talk last Sunday afternoon
and it was very highly enjoyed by the
GOd-loving people and church-goers in
general. We do sincerely hope that our
members and citizens of the surround
ing community will continue to come to
church and listen to the strong and con
vincing arguments that our pastor gives
to US with love and eloquence. Our
superintendent Mr.. A. Minner is getting
the Sunday School here in fine working
order and would like all the parents to
come ard bring their children and help
make the Sunday School at this place a |
grand success. Brother Minner wants |
the children's day service this year to !
excel any previous year in the history
of this church and all he asks is the =
assistance of the children and theft
parents. Now please don't forget tn 4.
