C.W.B.M. DA.YOBSERVED'
Local Congregation Joins With The
Christian Churches of the World.

1t is the custom in the Christian
church everywhere, to observe what
is known as c. w B. NJ. Day, each
year. At this time, the services are
in charge of the Woman's Missionary
Society and some one is chosen to
present their work to the people. The
morning service on Sunday was given
over to the OskaloOsa auxiliary of
the Christian Women's Board of Mis-
sions and Mrs. C. H. Morris of Mar.
ishalltown, first Vice President of the
c. w. B. NJ in Iowa was the speaker.
She also talked to nearly one hun
dred young ladies durin gthe Bible

OF the pastor of the Christian church
at Marshalltown where they have
done an exceptionally fine work They
are both natives of Canada but grad
yates of Drake University. Mrs. Nor
ris being Dean of Women there for
two years, since her graduation. Mrs.
Morris has an attractive personality,
| is a consecrated Christian and an in
teresting speaker and her visit here
was most helpful to all with whom
she came in touch. At the morning
service, a solo was given by one of
our former church girls. Mrs. Verda
Minkler Weisman, which was enjoy
ed by all. A letter was read by our
| Living Link, Anna Cowdrey of Kul-
pahar, India, and 1t brought the PEG.
| pie and their worker nearer together
as we listened to her earnest message
from dark India, and realized that
even with the heavy burdens there,
she was remembering us on this day,
and praying for those at home. Mrs.
Morris met again with the girls pre-
ceding the evening service, and al
though the unpleasant evening kept
many away, twenty-one young ladies
gave their names as members of a
Girls Circle" Many others. We are
sure, will become members and it is
hoped that the Oskaloosa church may
soon have two enthusiastic mission
circles for girls. The audience at the
evening service was excellent Rev.
Farley spoke upon the question,
Shall the Saloons In OskaloOsa be
Reopened?" He read numerous re.
plies from the men Of OskalOosa and
with two or three exceptions, the
answer was a decided No" Many
good reasons were also given in the
letters-why the men were opposed
to the reopening.
Mabel Ware and Jessie Reid sang
duet at this service, +
On Wednesday afternoon the 10y
al Women's class will hold their
monthly social at the church. The
midweek prayer service will be at
the regular hour upon Thursday
night, with a meeting of the teachers
and officers of the Bible school, pre-
ceding it. Friday night all the young
ladies of the church are invited to a
social in their club room. The girls
of the Philathea, Cleaner and Dorras
classes, and the young ladies who
teach in the Bible school, are es'
pecially urged to attend. Refresh
ments will be served and a good time

Sister Vessel, Also Hit by Missiles,
Tries to Aid courbet,
But Sends II to

Berlin, (via wireless to Sayville),
Jan. 12.-Again the submarine has
proved the master Of the dreadnaught,
and the pride of the French navy,
the dreadnaught CouTbet, one Of
Frances only four warships OF this
class, lies at the bottom OF the Medi-
terranean after an attack by the Aus
TRAN submarine No. IL.
The Courbet, only a year old and
of 23,500 tons displacement, is the
second largest warship sunk since the
war began, the British dreadnaught
Audacious having been larger by 1000
tons.
9ss Men Believed Lost.
To the plan of the Teutonic allies
to white down the nayies of their
adVersaries by sinking one formid-
able battleship at a time is laid the
destruction of both ships.
The Courbet had a complement OF
1898 men, all of whom are believed to
have gone down with the ship. After
the attack by the submarine, the
dreadnaught's sister ship, the Jean
Bart, tried to tow her to port, and
during her maneuvering the Jean Bart
rammed the Courbet. With her COM
partments already filled by the blow
from the torpedo, the huge vessel
could not Withstand the added blow,
and sank.
1t Is believed here that the Cour-
bets crew, expecting to reach port
safely in tow Of the Jean Bart, re-
NAMED on board the ship.

bet come in the following statement
given out by the official press bu-

believed here that the engagement
was that which took place on Deem
