all that It should do in this important
work without a modern plant.
B.-Why Build Church Now
/. Building material is no higher in
proportion to prices paid for products
than it ever was. And there is little
chance of it growing cheaper.
2. 1t takes time to get such an en-
terprise under way. There must be
a period of preparation.
8. Liberty Bonds can be used in
payment and thus make the money
spent in a patriotic way do double
duty.
a. The church in Liberal has
reached its limit of growth until it
has building to adequately take
care of the people.
5. The church must do a great work
in the reconstruction period follow

can not do so without an adequate

THE NEW METHODIST CHURCH
(By Rev. A. M. WILKINSON

(By Rev. A. M. WllklnSOH)
Let us call your attention this week
to all that we have been trying to say
during the last four weeks. The hour
approaches when you will be asked to
subscribe to this building. And we
want your decision with the whole
matter before you in concise form.
A.-Why Build Church
l. To adequately take care of a
fast growing Sunday school.
2. To make possible a wholesome
social and recreational life for the
young people of the community to
help form the constituency of the
Methodist Church.
3. To adequately represent the
church in the community. An anti
quated church building amidst mod
ern business plants can never give
the right estimate of values to the
people of the community.
4. To minister to the community

! C.-The Value of the Church in a
Community
/. 1t is an economic force. 1t fights
against all kinds of vice. 1t is the
policeman placed within that does
more good than the police outside.
2. 1t offers service to all the peo-
pie. 1t is the democratic institution
of any community. Its doors open
wide and all people are welcome.
3. Its byproducts are worth while.
The music, the social life, the friend
ships, etc., are all valued products of
the church.
A. 1t is an investment in life. The
church produces manhood and wom-
anhood of the highest type. And an
investment in a church plant is an
investment in the most precious stuff
of earth-life values.
D.-The Relation of This Church to
the Southwest
/. This is the head of a district.
The conference has thus expressed
its faith in this church as leader.
But to lead we have modern plant
to be the nerve center of this South
west country.
2. Liberal is responsible for the
moral and spiritual life of it's trade
territory. Eight thousand square
miles of territory look toward Liber-
al as leader. And most of these peO-
pie are ministered to by the Method
list church. We must assume the re-
sponsibility and do our part in the
religious life.
3. The Centenary movement of
the general church expects to invest
fifty thousand dollars in this district
within the next five years. And the
Liberal church is to be the leader in
this great forward movement of the
church. All of this makes the new
building imperative.
E.-How Can We Build
/. By all giving something. Every
member and friend of this church
should have a part in its building.
2. By accepting Liberty Bonds in
payment. The money now invested
for patriotic purposes can be used
again for the good of this communi-
ty and the nation.
3. By giving time for payment
The payments will extend over a
period of three years. This gives
each one a chance to help and work
it out as they go.
A. By collecting certain amount
before commencing the actual build
ing.
The plant will cost fifty thousand
dollars. At least one-half shall be-
collected and in the bank before
building. This insures the best prices
on material and labor. And it makes
it sure that your investment will be
given the greatest value for each
dollar invested.
The case is before you. We be-
lieve if you think it thru carefully,
you will come to but one conclusion.
Methodism needs thus building in
Liberal The community needs it..
We can build it by each one doing his
part. And the time to commence
collecting the funds and looking to-
ward the building is now.
December eight is the big day.
Brother Ward, former pastor, will
be with us. Other speakers will be
present. 1t will be a high day in the
history of this church. 1t will mark
the day when a new forward march
begins. You what part in it. 1t
will always be regret if you miss it..
Watch this space next week for spe-
cifc announcement of the services of
the day. Come and bring your
friends and help sing and shout the
victory.
Sunday December eight will be a
date remembered by the Methodists
of Liberal. Plan now to be present.

DEATH OF JAMES SHEETS.

Last night at II o'clock James Sheets passed away at the home of his daughter, Mrs. R. B. Hooking, on Main street. MT. Sheets had been a long and patient sufferer from heart trouble, and while his death was not unexpected, his many friends, and they were numbered by his acquain- tances, sustained distinct shock when the news of his demise became known this morning.
 Funeral services were held at the residence of MT. and Mrs. R. B. Hooking this afternoon at o'clock, conducted by Rev. w. B. Hays, pas tor of the Methodist church, burial following at Walnut Grove cemetery, where the order of Odd Fellows, of which MT. Sheets was a faithful and valued member, had charge of the services.
 Mir. Sheets was born at Grayville, Illinois, 67 years ago, and came to Newport eight years ago. He was engaged in the timber business here, and was prominent in his line of en- deavor and respected for his manner of fair dealings. He gained the friendship of everyone with whom he came in contact. Gentle by nature, possessing a Christian spirit and a bright intellect, which made ac- quaintance with him interesting, the presence of MT. Sheets everywhere meant added sunshine.
 The deceased is survived by his devoted wife, and daughter, Mrs. R. B. Hooking, granddaughter, Miss Mary Madeline Hooking, and broth CT, George Sheets, who resides at Grayville, Illinois, and who was un- able to reach Newport on account of illness.
 To these surviving relatives the Independent joins host of friends in extending the tenderest of sympathy.
