historical EVIE w
OF SALEM CHURCH

Baptist country churches today. Dur
ing the Rev. Mr.. Fishers pastorats
plans were made by the little congre-
cation for securing a lot and erect
ing a permanent house Of worship.
This was contaminated in the build
ing of the present old structure on
Mill street and was dedicated in Oc-
tober 1884, the Rev. Lewis e. Peters
preaching the dedicatory sermon.
In 1887 the Rev NJ. A. Summers
was chosen pastor and took up his
residence in the town. He also served
the Victory and Sedalia churches as
pastor. The Salem church took an adj
vance step during this passionate in
that it sustained twice month Sun
day service, and, largely increasing
the pastors salary. The Rev. Mr..
Summerss pastorate lasted only two
years and he took up work in Ohio
in larger field in 1889 and the Rev.
L. W. Holden was chosen pastor, who
served the body for three years, and
was succeeded by the Rev, John 4.
Reynolds, who was the accepted pas
tor from 1892 to 1898. One question
always confronting the church In
those days was the need Of a resident
pastor, who could live Elm the town
and do the necessary PASTORAL work.
In 1898 because of falling health
the Rev. Mr.. Reynolds resigned the
care of the church. The member
ship selected from their own number
his successor in the person of W. NJ.
Blair, who was ordained to the full
work of the ministry May &c. 1898.
During his pastorate the church took
many progressive steps and the
broad foundation laid and the work
ers trained for the larger work and
usefulness Of this modern church.
AS to gain in membership and mater
ial prosperity of the body during
Pastor Blairs service we quote from
the Church News. a monthly paper
published by the church and edited
by two members when the church was
pastorless, the following: The pas
tor came from the pew to the pulpit
in 1898, the church sustained one
fourth time service with total mem
bership of eighty. The first progress
i've advance was change to preach
ing twice month. and then to full
time service The growth in mem
bership has been steady and the
records show a net gain in member
ship of fifty-seven, or membership
of 1877 at this time. In the way Of
improvements, a Baptistry was built.
a neat parsonage erected. The church
house underwent extensive repairs,
re-roofed. re-painted and the audience

ton largely influenced the religious
life OF the town and surroundings I'M
til about 1880, when other churches
became active in planting and deve-
opinE their work.
The early agitation for Baptist
church at Salem was promulgated by
the Rev. w. E. Powell. who was born
and reared near the city. and at that
time was an active minister of the
4 denomination When a canvass for
prospective members was made TWEEN
ty persons were found who were will

On April %. 1882, an organization
was effected at the old Seventh Day
Baptist church in Salem and twenty

to establish and maintain Baptist

WE'RE ALL CRAZY
A dispatch from Greeley says:

A dispatch from Greeley says:
Are you crazy?
Probably you are slightly-or-not
normal-and don't know it. Every
one is more or less "off" at times,
according to DR.. Lightner Wilmer, an
expert on mental diseases, and lee
turer at the State Teachers College
summer school.
Playing with pencil while you
talk, pulling lock of hair while at
work, lingering a dress ornament or
a button-all these are Enthusiastically
signs of temporary insanity, little
lapses from the normal, says DR.. Wit,
mer, whose speciality is the study ant
observation of detective children in
public schools.
''It is more important that children
should first learn to use the tooth
brush and then the pen" he said
while discussing the subject here re-
Gently. Sane minds are found in sane
bodies. The line of demarcation be-
tween the sane and the insane is
like a hair, and once or a dozen or
more times day the hand of the
mental indicator swings over just a
trifle.
''Do you play with pencil? Dc
you toy with your watch chain? dc
you pick up trif.es and twist and turr
your fingers about them? Do you
drum your fingers on your desk or
table?
''Of course you do. We all do. And
we are all just trifle unbalanced
when we do it. The delicate me-
chanism Of the brain is easily thrown
out of poise. The little, common,
everyday acts such as those / have
mentioned prove mental lapses. You
may cali 1t nervousness; you may
call it Just foohng'; but the Stub
born fact remains that the pace of
today is telling on the nerve CEN

Elephants Little Trick.

The almost human intelligence Of
the elephant was we'll exhibited by
the school boy sort Of joke common
ly played on visitors by the big fellow
in the Jardin des Plantes at Paris.
His house opened upon an enclosure
containing a pond, in which he would
lay himself under the water conceal
ing every part except the very end
of his trunk-a mere speck that would
hardly be noticed by stranger to
the animals habits.
A crowd would often assemble round
the enclosure, and. not seeing him in
it. would watch in expectation that he
would soon issue from the house;
but while they were gazing about, q
copious sprinkling of water would fall
upon them, and ladies and gentlemen.
with their fine bonnets and coats,
would run for shelter under the trees,
looking up at the clear sky. and won
dering whence such a shower could
come.
Immediately afterward. however.
they would see the elephant rising
slowly from his bath, evincing, as 1t
seemed, an awkward Joy at the trick
that he had played. In the course of
time his amusement became generally
known; and the moment the water
began to rise from his trunk the spec
tators would take flight, at which he
appeared exceedingly delighted, get
ting up as fast as he could to see the
hustle he had caused.
Gilpin observer., 1913-08-14

is not hard to persuade him that it
will increase the price of everything
he sells. He forgets that the things
he buys are produced by manufacture
ers who find it easy to combine and
raise and maintain prices to the full
level of the tariff wall, while he and
his fellow farmers never think of
combining, and dispose of their pro-
ducts in competitive markets and re-
ceive the prices fixed by the law of
supply and demand.
A Needed
Object Lesson.
The Democratic party has placed
wool and wheat and other products
OF the farm and range on the free
list, not because it wishes to injure
the farmer or the sheep man, but be-
cause it wants them to know that
their prosperity is not dependent on
high protective tariff. Once you
get the farmer to understand that
these protectionists have been fool
ing him-that when he buys in a pro-
tected market, and that when he
sells he sells in free trade market
the temple of protection will be de-
prived of most cf it's foundation.
A rather striking illustration of the
way the tariff effects the farmer
was given in the U. S. senate the
other day. Penrose, the standpat
senator from Pennsylvania, anIounc-
ed that concern in his state which
makes cream separators, would move
it's plant to Germany should the Un-
derwood bill pass. These Pennsyl-
vanfa cream separators, according
to Penrose, were selling from S25 to
$50, and the Germans We're prepar-
ed to supply our farmers with an ar
ticle just as good for $14.
Senator Ollie James suggested that
these would-be glad tidings for the
poor American farmers who were beS
ing held up on the price of their
cream separators, but Penrose con-
tinued to bewail the destruction"
OF a great industry, until Senator
Stone produced an interview with
an official of the separator company
flatly denying that they cor,emplat-
ed moving to Germany, and insist
ing they would continue to do busi-
ness at the old stand, tariff or no
tariff.
Thus another protective roorbach
was disposed of.
