METHODIST CHURCH

A mans power for good in the com
unity does not depend on the Office
he may hold, but it depends nthe
moral Wilderness of his character.
. Two reasons why some people dc
not attend church is laziness on the
one hand, and stinginess on the other
one is too lazy to get up and get
ready, the other is afraid it might cost
him quarter; stinginess and laziness
are both sin; and sin kills; kills the
best that is in US.
Pastoral calls will be made when
ever desired, by the pastor of the
Methodist Church. | am always read,
to visit and pray with and for the sick
Sunday School and Church attend
ance keeps up well, Notwithstanding
many are away on their vacation.
Our only business in Yerington is te
preach the gospel and live a hedpfu
christian life
Why are not the interests of tn,
soul looked after with the same in
telligence that men manifest in thu
temporal concerns of life? Answer
Most people forget that they have /;
soul. But forgetfulness does no
change the fact.

joke.
The head Of the Iowa town was
here today to take a look at Hamil.
ton and make sure that he was the
individual who sojourned al Columbus
Junction a few weeks ago lie decid.
ed that such was the case after taking
one look at the prisoner az the coun
ty Jail.
In Iowa the mayors Of cities have
powers as police magistrates when
they care to exercise them The may.
or of Columbus Junction is one OF
those who exercises this prerogative
A few weeks ago, in the course of
events, there came before him this
same Hamilton, on the charge Of be.
ing drunk. There was no defense.
Hamilton incidentally had been drunk
and he did not attempt to eyade a fine.
The amount was fixed at $40.
Hamilton drew a iong face. He said
he had only 81 with him and as be
did not know anybody in town he
feared he was up against it. Finally
he suggested that he had a pay check
for $50 with him and he said 81 he
could get someone to identify him he
would cash it and pay up The mayor
examined the check and il looked so
much like the real thing that he did
not hesitate for a moment to himself
endorse il. Hamilton got the money,
paid the so fine and departed joy
fully with the $40, vowing that he had
learned a lesson which would teach
him TO sin no more
In due time the mayor had the
amount of the check to make good
and so, being out $40 on the deal. he
has a personal motive for wanting TO
get Hamilton back into Iowa
