Z We have recently learned that
there is a movement on foot to change
the location OF the new Methodist
church building from the corner of
Chestnut and East Normal Avenue
to location nearer the Normal. The
business men and the people gener-
ously subscribed s1O5,O 900 to have the
building located as specified. If there
is not ground enough, more can be
procured. A location near the Nor
NAL School would accommodate COM
paratively few of the church goers
while it would discommode the major
ity
A postal card received this week
from Peter Johnson. Jr., reads as fol-
lows:
"Dear little post card, swiftly go
Back to the land of ice and snow,
And bear this Christmas message
please,
To those dear friends of mine who
freeze:
Our California's fine-just listen.
You simply don't know what you're
missin'I ;"
There may be few drawbacks"
here in Kansas. but we don't have
nervous fits on account OF earth
quakes, nor are we expecting to find
a tarantula or centipede crawl up
our pants legs; nor do we have to pay
75c for small beef steak. We might
mention scores of things as the
reason why we are thankful that we
live in Kansas.

Lutheran Sunday School Christmas
Entertainment

Entertainment
zone of the best programs ever
given by the Lutheran Sunday
School" was the expression of many
who attended the Christmas exercises
Monday evening, December 20, at the
Lutheran church.
Santa Claus and his little boy,
Father Time, kiddies, beautiful
Christmas tree, candy boxes, apples,
music, recitations and other things
that make a program of this kind
worth while, were there to the enter
tainment and delight of everyone
Miss Helen Wilson's rendition of
the Night Before Christmas with pipe
organ accompaniment by Mrs. Malm-
berg, was a feature of the evening. A
surprise was sprung when Santa
Claus entered accompanied by his lit
tie boy. The latter was promptly
captured. c. W. Richardson talked
forcibly about the Relation of Chris
tianity to Business.
With Miss Helen Wilson as Musical
Director, Mr.. Malmberg as pipe or
ganist, with an excellent young peo-
pies orchestra and with E. J. Mon
tague as superintendent, the Luther
an Sunday School has developed into
a GOING CONCERN.

Methodist Episcopal Church
Glenn a. Baldwin. pastor.


Christmas and jubilee united in the
services at the Methodist church, last
Sunday, when it was announced that
$1O5,4O7 had been subscribed in the
canvass for the first hundred thou
sand dollars. The goal has been
reached three and half days before
the date set. This does not finish the
financial task for another fifty thou
sand dollars will have to be secured
for building and endowment; but this
does assure the success of the enter
prise and the preparing of plans will
go forward at once
Sunday evening service was given
over to the jubilee. The united
chorus rendered three musical num-
bers, closing the service with the
great Hallelujah Chorus from the
Messiah; ad Mr.. ad Mrs. H. E. Malloy
each rendered solo. In view on the
platform were two conceptions of the
new building prepared by one archi-
tect. The speakers were the pastor,
Rev. G. A. Baldwin, Pres. w. A.
Lewis, and DR.. l. A. McKeever of
Salina.
Three hundred and sixty-six sub
scribers joined in creating the amount
and the appreciation of the church is
extended to all of them. The last
forty thousand subscribed and the
twenty-five to be secured goes direct
ly to the Hall of Residence, and the
local church and the Centenary have
made possible the church building
proper. As quickly as mailing list
can be prepared the appreciation of
the church viii be extended to all
subscribers.
The week has been full of Christ
mas celebration. The primary and
Beginners Department of the Sunday
School joined around the Christmas
tree on last Thursday, the Junior De-
partment celebrated Tuesday after
noon, and the intermediate League
Tuesday night.

TIE RICE CROP.

Eat more rice:
Market rice efficiently
Southern rice growers have
raised two billion pounds OF the
cereal this year and can't sell IL.
Their predicament is little il any

growers. who have lost millions
through collapse OF the domestic
market.
To remedy matters. the South
crn Rice Growers Association
has completed plans TO establish
cor1plete control OF rice market
ing This viii bc accomplished
through contracts with every rice
miller in the country. The mill
ers will handle rice only through
the association. The millcd prod
net will TIN be sold only at fixed
prices.
The hest grade OF rice will be
delivered 10 wholesalers At q IL
cents per pound. Last year, the
retail price was around ~ cents
per pound.
The association. representing

save the average grower from
loss. On the contrary, the aver,

SAVIOR OE LEE.

Earnest persons disparage

1t is minated that a truly

wouldn't laugh at anything like
that.
Perhaps, some day. ordinary
humans will be so oppressed by
those who undertake oimprovc

that time comes, each might as
