covered losses suffered in the initial trading

responsible for the first decline, which was
shortlived, there being good demand. This
was based on a belief that after recent
drastic liquidation prices were entitled to
a rally. Heavy selling again developed fol-

AMERICAN FALLS CHURCHES
BY REV. J. WESLEY MILLER.

Christian work In American Falls
has kept pace with the industrial de-
yelOpment and the city can now boast
OF having eight church organizations:
The Methodist Episcopal, German Bap-
fist, German Congregational, Episco-
pal. st. Johns Lutheran, English Bap-
list, Catholic and l.. ID. S. Also seven
church buildings and two parsonages.
The Methodists are the pioneers OF
the Evangelical denominations having
entered the field officially in the year
1898, and organized their church on
December 10th OF that year with DR..
}. ID. Gillian (now district superin-
tendent OF the Boise district) as pas
tor, and with the following members:
Mr.. and Mrs. s. l.. Mabee, Mr.. and Mrs.
Edward y. Stoddard, Mr.. and Mrs. John
H. McKown, Mr.. and Mrs. William f..
Legler, Thomas h. ST. John and Adel-
bert ID. BabcOck.

first church building, which was dedi-

being the church building now owned
by the German Baptist church. Later
the parsonage, now occupied by the
minister, was built and Is said to be
the best parsonage ia the Pocatello

for some time and have waited for
the time to come when it would seem
it was oportune to organize. The Rev.
A. b. Minaker, convention pastor of
the Baptist church for Idaho, is the
acting pastor.
The l.. d. S. church was organized
December 22nd, 1907. They built their
present church building in 1910, and
own property valued at $4,000. The
bishop in charge is w. w. Becksted
under whose leadership the church
has prospered.
The Presbyterians maintained a pas
tor here for some time and built the
church building now owned by the
st. Johns Lutheran church, but felt
that it was an Overlapping of forces and
withdrew from the field. This action
on the part of one denomination in
favor of another shows a beautiful
christian spirit that should be more
largely cultivated.
The total membership of all the
churches is about $50, with an atten-
dance in the Sunday schools of near
ly 600, and a property valuation of ap-
proximately SIG, 800. There is a grow
ing sentiment towards the church and
the things for which the church stands.
