UPPER CHAPEL

Doctor Raymond delivered a very
timely and helpful sermon in Upper
Chapel Sunday night on Friendship
with Christ. In his sermon he re-
minded us that we were often too
busy to form friendships among our
fellowmen, and even though we
sometimes begin such friendships
it is more likely that we would be-
come so busy with our worldly af-
fairs that we would not find the
time TO keep them. Just So too
many OF us do not take the time 20
form that strengthening and beau
tiful friendship with Jesus Christ.

Bratcher at her home near Berea,
January i3,, al 1915 p. m. She was
aged so years. & month and 10 days.
Loving hands administered every
thing in their power. but death came

the Silver Greek neighborhood, and
spent her school days in the old
Silver Greek school house, where,
under the preaching of the Rev. Mr..
James and Rev Holtsclaus. she was
converted about thirty-flve years
ago. Since that time she has lived
true and faithful Christian and a
faithful worker in her church
where she will be sadly missed.
In mind she was unique and
original; in her dealings. honor
able and fair; as a neighbor unex-
ceptioned and kind. as their
close attention in her last illness
testified.

We wish 10 thank our loving
friends and neighbors for their close
attention in the sickness and death
