Brother Moore stated in last
weeks papers that by turn the
Thanksgiving service would be
at the Presbyterian church; but
with his characteristic modesty
be refrained from stating that it
is the Baptist preachers turn to
preach the Thanksgiving dis

musical interest shown every

celebration this year.
1t was pleasure to greet DR..

had the good fortune to listen to
an earnest talk from Captain
Painter two weeks ago. They

METHODIST

The Rally at Artesian was a
decided success. A fine day and
great feast at the noon hour
and crowd that filled the house
as full as it could be and many
out side. A great day.
Our new song books are here
and we are enjoying some good
music as we have a good Choir
and with good music they furn-
ish the public with something
worth while.
The League service on Sunday
evening was especially good.
We will finish the plans this
week for the special meetings to
De held through the month of
January. Rev. Maitland is hav-
ing great SUCCESS this fall in his
meetings. His dates are filed
far in advance showing how he is
wanted over the state. We had
to engage him one year in ad-
vance.
We all enjoyed the Lecture
Number. We did not expect a
sermon but the reader gave us a
sermon in one reading, THE
Small men," No one who really
thinks wants to be small and if
men are small it is because they
are centered in themselves and
what they have to deal with.
This church will welcome you.
We have more transient attend
ance at our services here than we
have ever had id any charge we
have served. We welcome the
stranger and they must tell 9TH

yet appeared. Each animal is
examined daily by veterinarians.

nifcance and make appropriate its observance
with more than ordinary soemnity and rey
erence.

custom, l, George II. Hodges, governor of the
state of Kansas, do hereby join the president of
the United States in designating and setting
apart Thursday the twenty-sixth day Of No
vember, A. d. nineteen hundred fourteen, as

Him; devoutly praying also, that in His wisdom
an end may be brought to the terrible struggle
that is now involving the nations of Europe.
In witness whereof, have hereunto set my
hand and caused the great seal of the state of
Kansas to be affixed.
