of the bills he contracted while he
was pastor of the Methodist church
in this city six years ago. One
merchant here said he thought there
would be as much room in hell for a
preacher who failed to pay his Just
obligations as for any other man who
has done as Freedline has done
People here would think more of
Freedline if he acted on the square.

The Dallas Center Times comes to

seven column folio. This is a great
improvement over the six colmn six
and gives it's readers almost third
more reading matter. The publish
er, Elmer A. Emmert, is one of the

fishers of Iowa and he is determined
to give his town the best Newspaper

neater, cleaner newspaper published

the helm many years and is giving
his town a newspaper that would be
a credit to community twice its
size.
