The pastor has been elected as
Bible school superintendent for the
coming year and we are expected to
make few changes and we ask your
hearty cooperation to make the school
better. The Unified Service" will be
given trial beginning Sunday morn
ing. All the scholars are urged to be
present promptly at 1890 a. m, one
hour earlier than usual. Parents
please bear this in mind and see that
you and your children are present on
time. Following the study period the
pastor will give sermon usually on
the lesson of the day, and the whole
service will last only one hour and

spare this time for the Lords work.

Obituary-Jeramiah Mcpherson

Jeramiah Mcpherson was born in
Hancock Co., Ohio, Oct. IL, 1910, and
died at his home, a mile south of
Green's church, in Orleans township
Saturday night, December %, at nine
o'clock, death being due to an attack
of heart failure of which disease he
had suffered for year. He was mar
ried at the age of twenty-five to Mrs.
Hester Kinney, she dying twenty-sev-
en- years ago. Seven children were
born to this union, two girls passing
to the Great Beyond.
Mr.. Mcpherson was converted thir-
teen years ago and was firm be-
lever in the doctrine of Free Metho-
dism. His last testimony was that
he was never going to die, but that
he would live on and on.
A short prayer service was held at
the home Monday, and Tuesday the
remains were taken to Perrinton
where the regular services were held
in charge of Rev. j. Fred Iulg. The
interment was made in the cemetery
at Perrinton.
Those left to mourn their loss are:
John Mcpherson of Perrinton; Joe of
Toledo, Ohio; Herman of Orleans;
Mrs. Mary Crawford of Orleans and
Leonard Mcpherson of Belding; also
nine grandchildren and two sisters.
A precious one from us has gone;
A voice we loved is still,
A place left vacant in our home
Which never can be filled.
