he is as good at the partnership as he is
leader for the Bethel A. M. e. church
the citizens of Davenport would certain
ly like to see him reelected to the same
high Office again.
The weather is certainly warm here
in Davenport, but don It let that worry
you, and stop you from coming to
church. Sunday is quarterly meeting at
the Bethel A. M. f. church. The new
