BISHOP WARNE At HAMPTON
Noted Methodist Doctor Delivers Two
Addresses in Hampton.

Special to Times Re publican.
Hampton, May 1S.-Fortunate in
deed were the people of this city and
vicinity Sunday in having the OPP
portunity of hearing Bishop Warne,
of India, who was kind enough to
come up from the conference at Des
Moines and fill the pulpit both morn
ing and evening.
He arrived in America only a
week ago. just from the far away
lands of India, Mesopotamia, Persia
and others OF that region. The mes
sage he brought of the needs of that
great field for Christian effort made
a great impression on his hearers.
He has spent thirty-three years in
India. Evening services at other
churches were discontinued and the
congregations were invited to the
Methodist church.

well afford to put in several acres.
Many farmers have contracted to
double their former acreages, and
