THE CHURCH

Now that the church is before us all bd we are individually being urged bd reminded to attend it's services, is well for us to consider what it is bd what it means to us. People lmetimes criticize the church and in st that it amounts to nothing and is birth nothing to the town or commu- ty. yet invariably the person who lakes that remark would never move q community where he could not Ie or hear of church, notwithstand- Q he may never attend it. If you Ike the churches out of Prescott and it be understood that there will no more churches here henceforth, ithin twelve twelve short months, ere would scarcely be business buse left and three fourths of the Sciences would be vacant. When an her twelve months passed, the grass bud be growing in our main streets Id our buildings would be the hab- Its of bats and owls. On a moments Election you will know that this is t false argument. Then, it is eIess to insist that the influence the church is dead Even when is poorly attended and scantily sup |rted, it is the most powerful insti- tion in the land. Our people are rn worshipers and the God idea is firmly rooted in their very nature any ether attribute of our civiliZa- bn. Indeed it is the dominant fac D, the most compelling force in that Filization and the few who cry out (ainst it do so unthoughtedly and thout reason.
 Is such an institution as the church prthy of your support and does it serve the work of your hands and aln for portion of the time in or that 1t may prosper and become pre useful to men and have a wider hge of influence? How can you an Ter except in the affirmative Now the tune to do something for your prch. Go to church and urge others go. There is no demand for money. ere Is no cry for funds or support reason of which anyone may have fuSe to stay away. It is simply an ltatlon to come out and lend your esence for the sake of the example d the good of your soul and the up-
 or the church generally. Go to
 church of your choice and do your most to fill 1t so full that there will
 oe standing room left. Talk about 'hlhK about, pray about it, read put It, call attention to the window ua' the Streamers across the street, ephohe to your neighbors about it let everybody know that the spir- ai He of the community is not dead 'na' the church lives and is the '' 'lIaI factor in the religious, so-

A rather humorous situation devel-

business to be transacted. The only
thing which the five august judges, in
Guiding the chief justice, had to con
slider was row over the right-of-way

gro families.
A number of cases have been put on

ganized, but it happend Monday morn
ing that none was ready for trial.
Judge Luther Rosser, Jr., settled the

The sensational story of how E. H.

the family broke off all relations with
