CITY Is Very Quiet

During the forenoon today the PEN
dleton business section has been
wrapped in a Sabbath like stiffness
1t is noticeable that the center park
ing privilege is not widely used and
that the hotel corridors are all but
deserted, most of the travellers being
at their own homes for the holidays.
The busiest place during the forenoon
was at the postoffice where the gen
eraI delivery window was on the go
during the hour the window kept
open. The postman mail was issued
from the postmaster's private office
and line of local people were on
hand for belated letters and pack
ages.

THE LITTLE CHURCH AROUND
THE CORNER.

On Thursday afternoon last, "the little
church around the corner" held a goodiy
number of folks very much in earnest.
Their good Pastor M. R. Paradis with
that self-depreciation which true Chris
tians are apt to have Cooking unto Jesus
should make any mortal humble) had sent
in his resignation to the Presbytery, say
ing that he felt sure another man could
be found who would do the work better.
At his suggestion Rev. George Summing
was sent to look into matters. After
reading a chapter from the Bible which
seemed as if written for the occasion, and
prayer which in spirit said "Bow down
Thy ear oh Lord, we are telling all car
cares to Our Father. and then when every
body expressed themself clearly, Rev.
Geo. Summing found that the only one
that was not entirely satisfied with MI.
and Mrs. Paradis' faithful work was our
good Pastor himself. If he could only
burn a little self-confidence from some
of US who have enough and to spare, he
would be happier, and the blessed little
church would suffer from such anxious
fears.
