Norwood Methodists to
Haze Beautiful Church

The only three dates 1 remember"
confessed DR.. w. f. Price, are the

| obedient husband. and when the Nor
wood Methodist church formally
launched q campaign for funds to erect

One might easily confuse this with:

When someone sailed the deep blue
sea.
Nor is it essential to this record that
the exact dav be recalled when DIR.
Price claimed his bride from coterie
of teachers at Athens college. 1t

what day the Norwood campaign was
launched. But me, oh. MY If it was

The great happiness is that DR.. Price
really won the hand of charming Ida
Bell and that Norwood church has al
ready subscribed more than sA1. 600 to
ward the erection of a 100000 edifice.

when Bishop Atkins sapologized for

THANKSGIVING

do not thank Thee, Lord, that in my life
No tempests beat-no swirng blast with hands
Of wrath pucked hard at all the things loved.
L., do not thank Thee. Lord, for sun-bright days
With fleckless skies-for days whose very breath
Was like enchanting wine to rosy lips.
But oh, thank thee most of all for this
That when the storm beat fiercest on my head,
Beneath Thy wings | crept-a shelter safe;
That when my eyes were blinded with the rays
That seemed celestial, from the of JOY
laid my face close to Thy throbbing heart.
My storms my suns, Thine, to send, withdraw,
AS seemed the best, to shape my life for Thee"

Il HAVE NEVER
SEEN ITSEQUAL"
THAT is WHAT MRS. COPE SAYS
OF TANLAC-ALL HER TR0U-
BLES ENDED

1T is certainly wonderful how
quickly the right medicine will get a
person to feeling right again., said
Mrs. Mary G. Cope, residing at 274
North Hicks street, Los Angeles, Cali,
in a recent statement regarding the
benefits she has derived from the use
of Tanlac.
II am now seventy-two years of age"
continued Mrs. Cope, "and have had
lots of experience with medicines, but
l have never seen the equal of Tan
lac. Why. since it has helped me
so much, / just tell everyone that
needs medicine about it, and so many
out here in my neighborhood are taxi
ing it that we are a regular Tanlac
colony.
During the past six years l have
had lots of trouble with my stomach.
/ could not eat anything without bloat-
ing all up with gas and feeling miser-
able. / was also troubled with this
gas at night until / could not sleep or
rest. / was very nervous and so run
down and weak that / just felt badly
all the time.
II had read a good deal how Tan
lac had helped in cases like mine, and,
going on the idea that, whats good
for one is good for another" l tried
it and 1t certainly has proven to be the
right thing for me. l have only taken
four bottles so far, but / am feeling
as good already as ! ever did. My
stomach is in fine condition, no gas
forms, and l can eat what / want and
enjoy it and that tired, nervous feeling
has all left me, too. l sleep. soundly
every night and feel strong and well
all the time. Tanlac has acted with
me just like the person whose testi-
monial read in the paper that caused
me to take it, said it did for her. 1
am glad to recommend such a medi-
cine and hope my statement will cause
others to find relief"
Tanlac is sold in Bonners Ferry by
c. d. Simonds, druggist and at Lenia.

Inter.Churc County Survey

The state council of the Inter
Church Movement has appointed Rev.
G. II. Wilbur the chairman of the In
ter-Church Survey in Boundary Co.
This survey is to include all the
churches and communities of this
county. In order to forward this
movement it will be necessary as soon
as possible to organize local county
council which will work in conjunc-
ton with the state council.
The object of this movement is to
find out the religious condition of the
county so thus to understand the re-
ligious needs of the communities and
supply the same.

Farmers Bulletin 964, issued by the
United States department of agricul-
ture, suggests a grouping Of expendi-
lures which is logical, yet not cumber-
some In its detail. After you have
kept your accounts for a time you will
perhaps originate some other classifi-
cation which may satisfy your needs
more fully. This is suggestive out
line, however, that bears study and
will aid in drawing up your other
plan.
/. Food: ~ Animal: ~ Fruits and
Vegetables; (3) Cereal Products; "a
Other Groceries
II. Clothing.
III. Household Furnishings.
Nv. Running Expenses.
V. Advancement: ID Recreation: ca
Education; go Benevolences; (D
Incidentals; C5) Savings.
Then in your account book you will
have record like the one in the "box"
accompanying this article.
At the end of the month, the sum
of the entries in the column headed
Cost" will show your total expendi-
lures, and the other totals will appear
In the special columns.
Cards In Third Method.
The third method of keeping ac-
counts Is by means of card system.
1t varies little from the method al
ready given, except that the headings
are placed on cards instead of In a
book. On one card would be the
heading Food. 80 per cent, $500" Cor
whatever percentage of the income
planned for in the budget. On the
other cards would be "Clothing. :. per
cent, S.; Household Furnishings, -.
per cent, S.. Running Expenses, -.
per cent, ST., and Advancement, -.
per cent, S." If general summary
! for the month is desired a card with
all the headings could bear the totals
taken from the various cards. At the
end of the year, the months totals
could be summarized and kept for
reference
The woman who keeps accounts will
know after a little experience just
what information she wishes and can
adapt any of these methods to her
own needs.
This will be easy to total at the
end of the week, month, or year, and
thus will give total expenditures, but
will not tell you at glance in what
line you should economic or answer
the question, "How much did 1 spend
this year on clothes?" A summary
may be made, however, In which each
item is entered in its proper column
az the end of each month or at the end
of the year.
Classifying an Entry.
The second method includes classifi-
cation as the item is put down. 1t
requires larger book, such as an or
binary account book, so that all the
group headings may be across the
two pages facing each other. For the
following months items, the tops of
the next pages may be cut off SO the
headings on the first page may be
used again.
