Of rs, Members Of All Saints Congregation,
gcther This evening to make n farewell offer
ing to you, our dear and much venernted
Pastor.
FoY over forty-three years yours has been
the sacred duty to lead this flock, ana with
unfaltering zeal you have performed The
task Ms a true shepherd lii the service OF His
Divine Ma8ter-for orr temporal as well AS our
spiritual welfare hNs been the object of yOur
highest interest. Now the burden of years
compels you TO lay aside your work amongst
us and sorroN fully do we look to the parting.
All partjngs are painful, but this is excep-
tiona,ly o.seeiug that we had all along cher
ished the hope that you would end your days
with us; but rs it has pleased God in His
Wisdom, TO order it otherwise, we bow our
heads IN humble submission to His Divine
viii, and though You be removed from us
vet there remains thnt which neither time
nor space can ernse-the fond memory that
r your exemplary aud holy life loaves with us.
We beg your acceptance of this small
'Souvenir" Of our affection and esteem,
which, though insignificant in itself, we hope
you will regard as IN outward expression
of the love end esteem we have for you, and
which we trust will serve to recall to you
this congregation with whom your memory
will ever remain fresh aud green.
We all hope for your safe arrival i'll the
home of your children where we are sure
you will be permitted to enjoy q much need
ed rest, and may the peace of God ever
abide with you.
On behalf of the Congregation,
Yours faithfully,

PROSPERITY : so THEY SAY.

The Idaho Industrial Review, for
this month, contains the following:
Meridian Through their vast
livestock and grain shipments this
year, the farmers of this section are
enjoying the fullest measure OF pros
perity. From two to three carloads
OF hogs arc being shipped out each
week and cheese shipments Of local
factory average about two carloads
week. This industry has become
one of large proportions and is now
buying dairy products from some
$50 farmers. The entire country for
miles In every direction shows high
ly developed farms with modern
homes, complete barns and cement
silos. Meridian country has assum-
ed a measure of prosperity compar-
able to the more highly developed
farming communities OF the eastern
and middle western states"
The Meridian times. (Meridian, Idaho) 1909-1938, 1916-12-01
MONEY SEEMS PLENTY.


Boise has s10.4S2,000 on deposit
in its six banks, as against $7,35S,-
900 a year ago. 1t is said there is
$2,0O0,000 ready to loan.
The Statesman says there is ten
dency to reduce the interest rate on
commercial and livestock loans. The
average has gone down about one
half OF one per cent. Farm loans
are being sought for BY mortgage and
trust COMPANIES and the rate of inter
est has dropped to per cent. Many
mortgages drawing per cent are
being rewritten at the lower figure.
Although the federal reserve bank
law allows the national banks the
right to make five-year loans on
farm lands, none of the banks of
Boise have taken advantage of it.
One of the reasons for not doing it
IS that there Is too much competi-
ton for this kind of security to make
the loans attractive at per cent.
There is a general feeling OF opti-
mism among the bankers. The work
ing out of the reserve banking law
has been quite satisfactory on the
whole, and will preclude any posi-
bility of a currency Panic such as was
experienced in 1907 they believe.
