 Rev. Fred Chelan and wife will leave this week for their new home in Chandler, Arizona, where Rev. Che Ian has been called to take the pas torship of the Christian Church. Rev. and Mrs. Chelan have made numerous friends during their stay in Carlisle, who will regret to know of their de- parture from Carlisle, but whom the Independent joins in wishing for i them pleasant and successful future in their new home. Rev. Chelan has been very successful in his work here and leaves the Christian church in this city in much more thriving con dition than when he came here a few months ago. He is a rustler and be- lieves in publicity for the church as we'll as for any other organization
