Of Mt. Vernon, Ind ana, is the guest

just returned from an extended "trip
through the Canal Zone and the trop-

vision absorbed much of pleasureab!e
interest. 1t has been the pleasure of
a number of Welsh folks this week
to read very interesting descriptive
letter which the Rev. Father wrote to
his home paper, the Western Star,
published at Mt Vernon. Father
Luebbermann's health has not been
the best Of late, and he has relin-
qu shed active church work to a great
extent, for the lure of travel. He
has visited here "a number of times
during the years past, cultivating
friendships which welcome his return.
