MRS. w. N. Jameson, living in Mon
treal,. Canada, widow of one of our
ministers, the Rev. W. n. Jameson,
has given three sons to the service.
AS she was living in Canada, financial
reasons led them to enlist in the Ca
madam army. But her heart and that
of her sons is here in the states. To
the editor she writes this beautiful
letter, which is worth handing on to
the mothers of America as display
ing the finest spirit of heroism. In
part she says: They wished greatly
to enlist under their own. flag, the
Stars and Stripes, but financial rea-
sons made it necessary for them to
enlist here. They are hoping to be
permitted to transfer when they reach
France. l have just one boy left and
he hopes to don the khaki in May
next, when business and mother can
better spare him. l have not dared
to say them nay The Via Dolorosa
is crowded with mothers, all pressing
forward bravely with heads high,

SO why not /? / shall be so glad if
you can add my boys 'names to your

MOTTO CHANGE SERVICE
Swedish Lutheran To Continue
Using Same Languages In
Their Church

Voters of the Swedish Lutheran
church held the adjourned business
meeting in the church parlors last
evening, and discussed annual bust
ness matters left over from the reg
ular annual meeting. The questions
of changing the languages to be used
at services, and changing the name
of the church was left on the table
for future consideration, and services
will continue as at present, Swedish
services being he'd at the church on
Sunday forenoons, and English serv-
ices being held on Sunday evenings.
The questions were not voted upon
last night.
Women have never been allowed
the vote in the Swedish Lutheran
church, but now, by an amendment
to the constitution, passed the first of
the year, women will be allowed to
vote on church matters from now on.
Repairing of the church was dis
cussed and the financial secretary
reported that the annual contribu-
tions would not be sufficient to have
the repairs made. A voluntary con-
-tribution was Immediately started and
resulted in SITS for the needed church
repairs being raised within a few
minutes. Soren Johnson started the
contributions with donation of $50.
At an informal meeting following
the regular business session officers
for the Mems club were elected as
follows: B. S. Boman, president; o.
X. Monson, vice president; A. G..
Persons, secretary; Alfred Sangren,
treasurer. The officers form a COM
mittee to prepare program and ar
range for luncheon for the first Mems
club meeting which will be held at
on early date. Adoption of a consti-
tuition and bylaws will be taken up
at the first meeting
