Big Day at New Sharon.
July 8rd, 1915 will go down in the
history of New Sharon as one Of the
largest days il ever knew. The larg-
est crowd in the history of the town
witnessed the efforts of the people
who took part in the whole days pro-
gram. At nine o'clock in the morning
the grand automobile race took place
with fifty cars making a grand show
ing. In the city park the New Sharon
band and the G!ee Club furnished ex-
cellent music for the occasion, and
the address by the Hon J. H. Carr of
Ames was one of the most interesting
features of the day. At the fair
grounds in the afternoon the crowd
was at its best, everyone being in the
best of spirits and ready for all the
fun. II was one continuous round of
pleasure from start to finish. In the
contests the winners we're the hap

SERVICES OPEN
Sunday Evening Band Concerts To
Be A Feature.

! Union open air services we're held
for the first time this season, on Sun
day evening on the west side of the
square. The space in front OF the
tNfahaska Statue was set apart for this
purpose by. the city council instead of
lhavin gthem near the bans stand as
last year A small stand was erected
at the curb for the speakers and on
THE north side, the Iowa Brigade band
was seated on folding chairs. Prior to
the regular service and while the peo-
pie were gathering, the band gave a
special sacred concert. Rev. G. s..
Farley of the Christian church was
in charge of the service and Rev. K.
j. Evans, the County Missionary Of
fered the prayer. Seated on the plat
form we're Rev Alexander McFerran

church. Here one of the Union Gospel
teams took charge and plain and yet
forCable talks were given by Henry |
Van Velson, a railroad engineer, by |
George Gilbert, by A. +. De Witt and !
lastly by G NJ. Criswell, who gave the
invitation. While there were no con- |
verts. this service was in some re- |
spects remarkable. in that each of the |
speakers had only been Christians for |
a few years, comparatively, and while |
their experiences we're all different, |
they were all positive and outspOken |
In their interest for the cause OF
Christ.
.. Afternoon Service.
At the United Presbyterian church, |
on Sunday afternoon, a mems meeting |
was held by another Union Gospel
team In charge of A. L. Crawford. |
During the service short talks were
given by w. g. Wilson, Frank Hatch,
L. l.. Porter. w. II. Bovee and Frank |
Terrence. All of these talks were
most interesting andhelpful. At the |
close, DIR. l. o. Kembie and A. F. De |
Witt spoke to the men regarding theI
Sunday evening Open Air meetings
and urged the support and co-opera
ton of all Of the men, In making these |
services not only helpful to the gem
erai public but an aid in an eyangelis-
tic sense in the Gospel Team services
that are TO be held each Sunday even
ing afterwards.
During July these after services
are 70 be he.d ir the Central NJ. E. |
