REV. O'BIERNE RESIGNS:
TAKES UP S. A. WORK

Rev. c. e. OBierne, the well-knowll
Baptist Rusk county pastor, whose
headquarters have been in Ladysmith
for 3 years, has resigned to accept a
Salvation Army field in Clarksburg,
West Virginia. The transition came
very suddenly, but Rev. O'Bierne felt
that the field offered much wider op-
portunity for service than did this
hence the early acceptance.
1t is needless to say that Rev.
OBierne and his family will be much
missed here as well as in Glen Flora
and elsewhere in the county. Rev.
O'Bielne and family certainly have the
best wishes of many friends, who feel
that what is Clarksburg's gain is GER
tainly their loss.
