MOVING into Their
fine new QUARTERS
The Parkhurst & Lavender Auto
Company Will Soon be in
Their New Location.

The Parkhurst e Lavender Auto
company are moving from their old
quarters on Seneca street to their
fine new home which is being COM
pleted on Second street. The new
| building is one of the finest auto
garages in the state and is thor
ughly equipped from basement to
street floor. At the rear of the base
ment is a repair bench at which
four cars may be repaired at
a time and which is lighted
by sky lights fitted with prism
glass, and by electricity if
necessary. In the basement is also
a room where cars may be washed
and there is similar wash room
for cars right above it on the first
floor. There is also space to store
thirty cars in the basement in the
back part of the room. In the CEN
ter of the basement on the west side
is vapor steam heating plant of
which the proprietors are proud, as
it is the first of it's kind in this city.
The heating plant heats the build
ing and could also heat an addition
al floor. The radiators in the build
ing are hung from the ceiling, so
that the heat will not blister paint
on cars or in any way injure them.
Beside the heating plant is large
coal room capable of holding forty
five tons of coal. The building is
completely equipr ed with electric
lights, the system being one of the
finest in the city. In the front part
of the basement along the east side
is the machinery for making the
doormats which are made by this
company, while farther in front are
pieces of machinery run by electric
ity with which practically all parts
of autos may be duplicated. This]
machinery places this garage in the
front ranks of garages in Iowa,
there being only one garage, and
that in Des Moines, that can do the
work that this company can do |
along these lines. The front end of |
the basement is lighted by sidewalk |
lights and underneath the walk is
placed 600 gallon gasoline tank
and the looms for weaving the door
all the space is taken up with stor-
age for cars. On this floor, however,
there is balcony on which is plac-
ed large vulcanizer, the size which
is used in the factories, and will be
run by an expert who will arrive in
the city the first of March. He will
take charge of this work and tire
troubles of all kinds will be handled |
by him. On this balcony is placed
a large compressed air tank, which
will be piped to various parts of the
In the front room, which
is being finished in quartered oak,
there will be show space for autos
and balcony to be the main Office
for the company. Immediately under
this balcony there is to be strictly
private rest room for the use of la
dies, open at all times to strangers.
This fine structure is on the base
ment floor forty-two feet wide and
one hundred thirty-eight feet long,
while the upper floor is forty-two
feet wide and one hundred and four
teen long, and is well worth taking
the time to inspect.

ShoeD ept.

union presented Mr.. and Mrs. Met
calf with a silver baking dish of
very beautiful pattern and rich de-
sign. The ladies of the church pre-
sented Mrs. Metcalf with a dozen
sterling silver knives. The presen-
tation was made by Mrs. H. l..
Hampton in the following brief re-
marks:
Pilgrim, you have reached a mile
stone on your journey and we who
travel with you in the way, would
pause and help you celebrate your
happiness and join you in thanks
giving and prayers for blessings on
the day. We have not come far to-
gether and of the tolls and strife
which may have lined your path we
do not know, nor would not know,
for they are best forgotten. We
would rather have you think of ev-
cry flower that blew and bird that
sang beside your way, of every
friend proved true since your blest
wedding day. This little gift we
bring you is no measure of our love
or friendship, just token merely to
remind you in all the years to come
of the friends who paused here with
you, and whose blessings and best
wishes ever follow, follow ever to
the portals Of our home.
The men of the church presented
Mr. Metcalf with twenty-five bright
silver dollars. The coins were ar
ranged in the form of the number
25 on a back ground of black velvet
and made very unique gift. The
presentation was made by Mr.. o. j.
Henderson. Mr.. Henderson spoke
very impressively of the work which
Mr.. Metcalf has accomplished during
his four years of pastorate in Web
ster City and it was easily apparent
that his words of appreciation We're
heartily echoed by every one pres
ent.
I have been requested on behalf
of the men of this gathering and of
your congregation to convey to you
our best wishes for your future
health and prosperity, and our sin
cerest hopes that you will have oc-
casion times without number to cele-
brate the anniversary which occurs
on this date; and in that connection
to present you with a modest and
humble token of our appreciation
and regard. 1t is only fair to say
that on an occasion like this our
thou ghts turn not so much to you,
as they do to your worthy spouse.
1t is true that in the routine of your
daily toll you manage to keep in the
forefront, and, generally speaking,
you are the one who is in sight, and
in her becoming modesty she is con-
tent to stay largely in the back
ground: notwithstanding which We
occasionally manage to peek around
the corner and get a view of her.
But on this one occasion. at least,
when our thoughts turn to the more
intimate affairs of your domestic re-
lations, we are led to think primar-
fly of the cares and burdens and re-
sponsibilities that she has borne
now for a quarter of a century.
1t has been thought since time in
memorial that a minister of the gos-
pei is not only subject to the uni
versal law that men cannot live by
bread alone. but he has often been
expected and required to live prac'
tically without any bread whatever!
But in these degenerate times VIZ
have at length come to the conclu
sion that even our spiritual advisers

A. S, Butler Seriously Ill.

a. S. Butler, who has been en-
ployed in the Ellingson e Mathre

at his home in the west part of the
city with an attack of heart and
stomach trouble. His condition is
reported very alarming.

Postpone Election.

On account of not receiving an
order to hold the election which
was scheduled for last evening at
the armory for the purpose of elect
ing a second lieutenant in Co. c,
the election has been postponed, the
exact date of which is not yet fixed.

are to some extent of the "earth,
earthly" that they do secretly covet
that which is material, and that
they must needs have their fair
share of a nations bounty. And so
We have thought to present you a
gift which is not only material in
its nature, but grossly so. We have
determined to present you, by your
leave, twenty-five pieces Of silver,-
not thirty pieces of silver,-but
twenty-five pieces, each designed to
represent year of the quarter cen
tury we are celebrating in your hon
or tonight.
l would prefer to put this upon
the plane of purely voluntary gift.
But I fear that it cannot rise much
higher than mere acknowledge
ment of our Indebtedness to you.
You have brought to our community
Ia new philosophy-an invincible
philosophy. You have" given us
new optimism. You have bred in us
a new faith, not only in the things
that pertain to the spiritual realms,
but a new and abiding faith in the
inherent goodness and integrity of
our fellow men. You have stirred us
to a renewed patriotism, in these
times of storms and stress and of as
saults upon our institutions. You
have given us new religion, or
rather the old and original religion,
stripped of the confusions and
metaphysics with which the dark
ages surrounded it. You have preach
ed to us, Sunday after Sunday, not
theology, with its hopelessness, but
religion, with it's hopefulness. You
have elevated our pulpit to an ex-
allied plane of pulpit oratory. You
have simplified for us the precepts
of our religion. These things can
not be accomplished in a day, but
slowly and surely your message is
seeping into our minds and con-
sciousness and eventually it will per-
meate unto the furthermost corners
Of our community.
So. l feel that, more important
than the mere delivering over of
these pieces of silver, is the assur-
ance that in your labors you have
the sympathy and support and ap-
probation of your parish.
l ask you kindly to accept this
modest gift at our hands, and dis
pose of it to such purposes as may
seem to you most agreeable.
Flowers and letters of congratula-
tion from friends in the city and out
of town, were also receievd by Rev.
and Mrs. Metcalf.
The receiving line consisted of
Rev. and Mrs. Walter Metcalf of
Blarsburg. Miss Eta Metcalf, Mrs.

ing school at Grinnell, Iowa, arrived
on a late train in time to greet
large number of guests before the

mage to-day in preparation for the
Amherst game tomorrow. The men
were drilled in blocking punts ana run
