IN THE HOTEL LOBBIES

A year or so ago Frank CLANCY went
out to n of the country towns neal
Fargo to spend Sunday and he took
with him his hopeful, a lad Of not
many years.
Being a good church member Mr..
CLANCY n his son attended the o
try church at the morning service.
The minister was one Of the old
time kind who preached right from the
shoulder and he was most practical.
I just wonder how many of you
people prayed last night for your min
lister? How many of you prayed, /
say, for your pastor?" he asked.
OF course there was no one answer
cd and no answer was expected, but
after the preacher had asked the ques-
ton the second time, the CLANCY
youth reached up his hand and held it
up SO that everybody in the congrega-
ton. including the pastor, saw 1t.
AT h close Of the meeting the min
lister met the little fellow and he said:
Sonny, l was glad to see that you
prayed for me, Would you tell me
what you prayed about?"
The little fellow scratched his head
a minute and then drawled out:
Il just didn't pray for you exactly.
You see always pray on Saturday
night about our preacher. I ask the
Lord not to let him preach long on
Sunday"

the former used to travel out Of the

old friends: 1T just seems like get
ting back home when we come to
Fargo said S. e. Jones'" and we both
like to visit here. We just came in
the night before from the twin cities
and thought we'd stop off, see the show
ana attend the convention and pay our
dues. Lisbon is a fine little city and I
don't think there is prettier n in
the state than a be found there.
There are many people who come to
our town in the summer time just to
enjoy themselves and | believe that
the Southwestern gets to run
two trains zach way a day there
will be more visit our town. / feel
that the railroad will do tits
during the coming spring, and it is
something greatly to be desired. l
don't believe that 1t will hurt our bust
ness down that way in the least. as
appear to think, but on the other
hand it win make it better. Lisbon
people n people all along the South
are greatly handicapped in
coming to Fargo by the fact that so
far there has been only one train a day
each way on the line. Business in our
line has been excellent and I ook for
unusually good business during the
spring and summer. We all
had good crops down that way and we
got them all harvested and threshed."
