Christian Endeavor is called to
meet at $50. fifteen minutes earlier
than regular time. The evening church
service will begin at 7:15 instead
of at 1880. The reason of the earlier
hour is that the pastor, who has a
part in the Elks' memorial service.
may be at the opera house for his
part. We believe this arrangement
will not inconvenience any of our
church goers and will give all an
opportunity to attend at the close OF
our regular service.
