Memorial Windows.

We understand that three Of the win
dows OF the new Methodist Church on
Try street will be taken as memorial
windows by John 7. Walker, DIR. c. w.
Miles and I. L. Bransford, these gentle
men to pay for art glass windows at a
cost OF $500 each, and the money SO
paid to be used by the building commit
tee in the purchase Of art glass for other
windows, so as to give the church uni
form appearance. The contract for the
building OF the church does not call for
art glass windows, and the selling OF
these three large windows is done for
the purpose Of securing fund with
which to provide other windows OF the
same character. All this is done to
augment the building fund, These win
dows, after they have been provided
with paintings, will cost approximately
81, 900 each, but the building commit
tee is to receive only $500 each for
them. Undoubtedly the new Methodist
Church will be handsome work when
it is completed.

Feast or a Famine.

You take town that has two teams,
In two leagues has place,
And there are bound to be extremes
AS TO the pennant race.
When both teams win on the same day
Joy fills each townsman's life.
Fans smile and rdy-gurdies play
And happiness is rife.
But when both teams at once go down
Beneath the hand Of doom,
The bands are silent and the town
Fills up with wholesale gloom.

won't object.
There are lots of other small

Underwear that was $1.0O is 55c.
Some for even less.
The point is that we can't keep
