The MORGAN MEETINGS

The Evangelical meetings being
held by DR.. j. M. Morgan in the town
hall are well attended, and much in
terest seems manifested. The doctor

ings.
DIR. Morgan has seen much of the
world and its ways and his efforts to
advise and admonlsh his hearers how
to live that life may be the better and
the final reward greater, has had good
effect in many places and if we are to
judge by the numbers who are attend.
ing his meetings, there will be much
good result from his work in Perrys
burg.

ideals, ever ready to minister to the
welfare of the needy and distressed,
whose charities and kindnesses to
those less fortunate have endeared
her to the hearts of manv who now
deeply deplore the passing of con,
scientious, faithful, christian, woman,
a devoted, lovable wife and mother.

day
The righteous fall asleep; death can.
not come
To her untimely who is fit to de-
The less of this cold world, the more OF
heaven
The briefer life, the earlier immor.

HOME COMING WEEK.

1t was great pleasure to receive a
visit from Shelly and Ernest G. Miller
last week. They came from st. Jo-
seph, Mo-, and Denver, Col, respect
lively, and were much interested in the
advancement of Perrysburg and the
welfare of Perrysburg people, and
while here were much interested in
the evidences of organized effort in
the upbuildhng of Perrysburg, and
suggested that, as the Perry Centen-
nial was to be celebrated in this sec
ton this fall, that it would be splen-
did time and occasion for holding a
Home Coming Week in Perrysburg.
They spoke of many people who would
undoubtedly make a special effort to
get back to the old home town for that
week, and suggested that there is
probably no town in Ohio that could
bring together larger party of
wanderers" who would gladly come
for the purpose of visiting the old
town and again meeting the many
others who are also located else
where.
They suggested that this might be
a good project for the Civic Associa-
ton to take up at once and commence
the preliminary work of advertising
the scheme.

1t is now thought possible that
General Huerta and General Diaz
of Mexico may start another revolu-
tion, and those who have been watch
ing the Mexico news are much in
clined to hope they may do so, and
that each may succeed in killing the
other, and that the same process may
continue until the last Mexican on
earth may become tired of being a
Mexican and will eat 30 many hot
"tamols, that he may dry up and blow
away, and then, perhaps, there may
be peace in Mexico-provided there
are no "pieces" left to be resurrected.

are used in lieu of the masculine cuss
