Rev. G. W. H, Smith, who for
many years was pastor of the Presby-
terian church of this city, arrived
Wednesday afternoon from Kend-
rick, Idaho, to close up some busi-
ness matters here and to renew old
friendships. Rev. Smith looks as we'll
as ever, and his new charge in Idaho
seems to agree with him, if outward
appearances count. He was greeted
by many of his old friends, and en-
joyed shaking hands with all the
"boys" just as he did when he was
in the ministry here. South Bend
people will always remember Rev.
Smith as a minister that is little
different form the ordinary type of

came down to the store to get some
bread when he found the door of the
store broken in and the safe and

Wheels of Progress
Moving in Kendrick

That little old town of Kendrick
is no more. A new town is coming,
business activity is at hand. Every
store building in town is rented
and the ones who leased them are
making preparations to occupy them
in the very near future. The Hotel
Kendrick building has been rented
and the new man is now doing busi-
ness. The Collins building which
was recently vacated by the Ken
drick Auto Company has been rent
ed to H. N. Roberts, who formerly
conducted a confectionery in this
city, he is now remodeling the build
ing and WI IL move in soon. The
Lauterbach building has been rent
ed to A. K. Carlson for an imple-
ment building. The butter factory
is running and turning out the best
butter ever made in the west. The
city is having new concrete cross
walks built. Jess Collins will start
the erection of a new concrete block
house the first of the week. The
light man is here working on the
ground work for his electric light
plant. The Barnum Theatre has
been leased for two nights each
week for a moving picture show
which will soon start. Now if this
does not sound like the town had
been reserected from the dead and
had begun to come forth in the right
light, we would like to know what
does. Now comes another subject,
in building the new concrete walks
a parking strip should be arranged
for the town could be made beautiful
while the improvements are going
on. IL is a most important thing to
look after while you are making the
J new changes. We have the trees
now make room for a little grass.
The Water Company have made it
possible for plenty of water to
sprinkle with and beautiful parking
strips and lawns are now possible.
A moment more, what is the matter
with having the streets graded and
placed in some kind of a condition
that they will at least be smooth in
stead of so rough. The wheel that
we have always been talking about
has commenced to revolve and now
let everyone get behind it and keer
it going until Kendrick comes to the
light and makes one of the best
towns in the country. 1t has the
goods and can deliver them, if gone
after right.

School Notes

The Kendrick Public Schools
opened with a rush last Monday
morning. In the High School the
enrolment is 38, breaking all re-
cords, while in the grades the en-
rollment is as follows: Miss Hupp's
room 80, Miss Abrahansen's SO,
Miss Mellison's 80, Miss Longs 26.
The six extra desks placed in the
high school have all been filed with
one exception and it is expected
from present indications that the
enrolment for the year will reach
the fifty mark.
The unprecedented attendance
and strong demand for a science
course necessitates the employing
of an additional teacher to relive
the congestion in the high school.
The board Of education is now in
communication with two strong
applicants for the new position and
they hope the teacher may arrive in
time to begin work next Monday.
With this addition to the teach
ing force the Kendrick High School
takes rank among the first class
schools of the State and offers four
full years work in each of the fol-
lowing courses: English, Latin-Ger-
man and Science. Sufficient labora-
tory equipment will be installed in
a few days in order to make the new
science course as practical as pos
sible. The following sciences will
be offered this year; General science,
botany (agriculturaD and physics.
The board of education as we'll as
the citizens of Kendrick and the
community are to be congratulated
on their wisdom and foresight in
offering to their young people the
opportunity to. get an education
without spending considerable
money for it elsewhere.
On account of the Fair next week
the school will be closed on two
half days, Tuesday and Thursday
afternoons. The parents are
urgently requested not to excuse
their children from school at times
when it is in session during the fair.
An interesting and instructive
entertainment will be given by Miss
Jennie Hazel Goude under the
auspices of the school, Saturday
evening Oct. 9th. The following
comment on her work is taken from
the Wilbur, WASH, Register-"T The
performance of Miss Jennie Haze
Goude elected the highest praise

7rJBIIE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
by BEN NEWs0ME

their Offering should be to God alone
and not to his messenger. Manoahs
object in recalling the angel for q sec
ond visit was to hear with his own
ears the specific directions for the
care and training OF the promised
child. This was repeated minutely,
the conditions being that the mother
should Keep herself ceremonially un-
defiled and that the boy should be
Nazarite from his birth. The Nazarites
were a sect who believed and prac-
ticcd physical conservation to God,
taking a vow of total abstinence from
strong drink and other impurities, and
were distinguished from other people
by their uncut hair and beard, be-
cause no cutting tool was ever al
lowed to touch the natural growth or
the hair on their bodies
The Strong Man.
And the woman bore n son and
called his name Samson; and the Lord
blessed him" Thus began the life Of
this wonderful man whose career has
proved an inspiration and warning
throughout all subsequent years. The
story is too we'll known to need re-
peating. We all know of his prodigi-
Gus feats OF strength the havoc he
his unhappy woolng experience, and
the final sacrifice of all his glory and
miraculous power &c his infatuation
for a treacherous Philistine woman.
Ills miserable end as blind prisoner
in the hands Of his enemies, fallen by
his own act, and in his last moments
committing suicide 6s final act Of
revenge, teaches US anew that the
higher we climb the harder the fall.
1t also warns us that the man who,
having been exceptionally gifted with
power and opportunity for good. yet
lays down his heavenly commission
for the qualification Of the lusts of the
flesh, is doubly condemned. Pic
turesque and dramatic I'm war, in con-
fict with man or beast. as we'll as In
love-making, he was even more so In
his degradation and disgraceful death.

Lesson text, Judges 1886; "a, 20.
Passing over several repetitions or
the same experience, an alternate
lapse into idolatry with it's consequent
oppression by some of the surround
ing tribes, followed by repentance and
the raising up of leader to bring
them freedom again and a religious
revival that maintained until their
Judge died, we come now to a period
of 40 years during which the Phil
istines were dominant in the land. This
time redemption came through the
tribe Of Dan. Manoah and his wife
had no children, and to the woman
an angel appeared and announced
the birth of a son who should bring
deliverance to Israel from the Phil
istines. Like Gideon, this man and
woman OF Dan asked for proof that
the message came from God. This
was given in the acceptance of their
sacrifice and the disappearance OF the
angel in the smoke from the altar. 1t
is distinctly recorded that the angel
refused their material hospitality and
dccried the apparent reverence for
Him, insisting that their worship and
