 Rev. Charles w. Wolfe writes in- terestingly of his new pastorate at Wyanet, III. "The location is in the country-no village. The church is stronger than the village churches; the people of the church the most prosperous farmers in the world. Land sells at $2OO an acre when it sells at all. Many farmers have $5OOO worth of corn in the cribs now. Almost all drive autos, so can get to church quickly. They have instan. taneous telephone connections with everybody, two phones in the par sonage, which is next door to the school'' '' The membership of his church in Detroit trebled in the little less than two years he was there, but for the sake of the children and be- cause the city life was a strain upon them all, when this opportunity offer ed they thought best to accept. They are interested in the place here and the old friends, who, we know, are interested in them.
