Special Service.

On the fourth Sunday in July a specla
service for old people will be held at the
Cumberland Presbyterian Church, and
promises to be one OF the most inter
esting services held in Union City IN
recent years.
The songs used in this service will be
old-fashioned hymns, such as were used
forty and fifty years ago.
One OF the Oldest ministers OF the
church has been invited to preach the
sermon on that occasion, and if his
presence is secured, the sermon will add
very largely to the interest OF the days
service, since he is veteran OF many
conflicts in the Lords work and man
OF marked piety and ability.
The old people of the community are
invited to make suggestions for the
days service, to the end that the day
may be made one that shall be long re-
membered both by the old and young
people alike.
Please be free with your suggestions
for the service, as we desire to make
the service a success from every stand
point. Either see me personally or call
me over the phone (No. 676) or write

administration demands relative to
Americans safety at sea.
So far as German-American trouble
is concerned, it was said confidently
that all danger was considered prac-

this did not necessarily mean there
would not be a good deal of diplomatic
correspondence With a satisfactory
outcome virtually assured, however. 1t

a formal communication could be
transmitted.

the State Department has received all
the news it looked for concerning the
Arabic incident until the arrival of
the London embassy's full account by
