Doings in Church Circles

A good congregation worshlpped at
the Methodist church Sunday morning
The attention was exceedingly fine.
and there We're marks of deep devotion
manifest in the congregation.
Al the evening service the crowd
was small and the pastor stood down in
front out of the pulpit and talked out
of his heart on the necessity of spirit
ual exercise in order to grow strong
in the kingdom
Ii exercise maintains and perfects life
in the animal. vegetable, mental and
physical world. of course exercise Is a
necessity in the spiritual.
We study hard and increasingly
work in order to grow mentally, physi-
eally. commercially. socially and polit-
ieally but We cease to study to present
eur selves approved unto God
There are men in Dermott who can
and do make things buzz in the com
mertial and Industrial world They are
stuiias. accurate in their judgments in
all matters pertaining to business.
Eur the wheels of their Thinking
Machine stop start still when propo-
