JUNE 8 is BETTER HORSE DAY

All farmers who are interested in
better horses will help celebrate bet
ter stallion day" which will be held in
practically every county in the state
on June 3. This is urged by Guy T..
Morrison, livestock specialist of the
State College extension department.
He says: IF you own a pure bred stall
lion, show him. If you do not own one,
go to the show and see what is being
produced in your county. We can
grow better horses if we demand bet
ter stations"

tural engineering, Forestry, Poultry

The minister spoke from the
words of st. Paul in the 18th chap

GOLF CLUB CHANGES
DATE FOR PUBLIC
RECEPTION
Friday Too Near Christmas
And New Years Day
Decided Upon

The opening of the new club
house of the Marietta Golf Club
which was scheduled for this Fri
day has been changed by the direc-
tors of the club to the first day of
January. This change was decided
upon because it was thought that
Friday would be about the next
busiest day Oh the year ana be in
convenient for so many people TO
attend. 1t will be a rush day with
all the stores and most of the peo-
pie will be busy making final pre-
parations for Christmas.
January 1st will come on Monday
and be a holiday when everybody
can attend, and as it is the desire
of the club to have just as many
people as possible come out to the
reception in the afternoon il was
decided that this would be an ideal
day.
Everybody in Marietta is invit-
ed
The reception will last from two
to six in the afternoon
Refreshments will be served.
And just let us add right here
that this club is going to have the
classiest little home that was ever
gotten up for the money spent. The
foundation of the house was already
there and that saved weeks of time
and several hundred dollars of ex-
pense and the building is a little
beauty. And the view and-well
just you go out there on January
first We would rather you would
be surprised
If you are included in the word
everybody this is a personal invi-
tation to you from the club.

BILE position he holds and is tire
less, energetic worker, and will have
splendid aid in his work by his
wardens, Lindley w. Camp and Guy

past.

Mrs. A. S. Clay announces the

and handsome new building erect
ed, which will he occupied by the
bank.
The plans of course. cannot yet
be announced. as Mr.. ]. E. Massey.
President of the bank, says that an
architect will have ito figure out
the best kind of building to erect.
1t will be two or three stories, now
ever, and il necessary for the pro-
per housing Of this strong financial
institution, the entire first floor
may be occupied by the bank.

PUBLIC IS CORDIALLY
INVITED To CHRISTMAS
SERVICE At ST. JAMES

At st. James Church on Christ
mas Day, there wnl be a service
and sermon in commemoration of
the birthday of the Savior of the
world. Just a little thought will
reveal the great need of such a ser
vice. You will realize that the re-
ligious Specification of the Day is
passing out of fashion. Among
Christians, scarcely one in a hun
dred observe it as a day for praise,
prayer and worship. With the
many, it is day for unusual eat
ing, or Incorporate drinking, or
exceptional noise-self indulgence
Among children, the impression is
made that it is a day for Santa Claus
and Christmas trees. In stores, you
go to the counter where they tell
you are thousands of Christmas
cards. And there will not be found
one with a picture of the New Born
King, or of the Holy Family. There
is only Santa Claus or Holly Ber-
ries or a turkey or a bottle.
The choir has made special pre-
paration practice for the Christmas
service. Your presence will make
our worship more joyous, and per-
haps it might make your day hap
pier.
Especially, We invite all Chris
