pEpIcAroRY sERvlcE.

The dedication of the Methodist
Church South at West Liberty, KY, on
Aug. 22nd was truly a great success.
DIR. E. G. B. Mann, with the Presiding
Elder Rev. C. F. Oney from Lexington,
was the preacher. Dinner was served
on the ground and there was enough
food to have fed twice as large an au-
dience.
DR.. Mann certainly did his part well.
Out OF a small audience, made up
practically of town people, sum Of
$4,000 was raised to rid the new brick
structure from all its Indebtedness.
The Methodist people have now a
nice brick church costing some $4,000,
free from debt, and we predict bright
day in the future for this church and
people, May her walls stand long and
may the people and community at
, large be helped by this enterprise. F.

Pikeville and lost by a score Of to O..
on Friday they played the Prestons-
burg team at Prestonsburg and won by
a score OF IA TO 3. On Saturday they
played a double header at AuNier
against the Auxier team. In the first
game the score was TO 4 in favor OF
Auxier and in the last the score was 3
to in favor OF Louisa. on Sunday they
played at Van Lear against the Van
Lear team, winning by score Of to

boys took three of them, which Is very
good. and really more than the Louisa
fans" expected OF them, owing TO the
fact that several OF Louisa's best play
ers were not with the team on this
trip.
Louisa expects to play Pikeville on
the Louisa grounds next week, when
they will likely have their regular
lineup, and the game promises TO be
the best OF the season, as both the
PikevilIe and Louisa teams have made
a good record this year.

GATHERING.

At the regular annual meeting of the
Executive Committee of the Lawrence
County Sunday School Association held
in the lecture room OF the NJ. f. Church
South on Thursday evening, August
18th, 1915, the following business was
transacted:
The time for holding the County

church, we will move to the Court
House. The C. & o. Ry. company, it
is believed, will make special rates from
any station along its line in the coun-
ty.
The work of saving boys and girls is
the greatest work in the world. Come
and show that you are interested in
this great cause, vast numbers are vol
unteering across the water, to kill, and
burn, and drown. Reader volunteer for
one day, not to destroy, but to save and
make good citizens out of the boys and
girls of Lawrence county.

LATER: Since the Lawrence Coun-
ty Fair Association has selected the

knows not the different places OF the
abode of the Keiths during their alb

present home is Alva, Oklahoma. Near
ly year ago his worthy wife died, and
lately he was seized with a desire TO
visit the old home on Sandy. En- route
to Floyd Mr.. Keith stopped in this city,
where he was the guest of his old
friend Mr.. r, T. Burns and was also
entertained by Capt. Frank Freese. Mr..
Keith is a very intelligent man, genial
in manner bearing evidence of pros

Mr.. Keith's visit recalls to the minds
Of some of the baldheaded, graybearded
members of Louisa Chapter or Royal

by his father, the Rev. William Keith,
deceased. Rev. Mr.. Keith, called by
many the John The Baptist of the San

vent to his feelings with shouting and
