On account of the absence of Rev:
Dunham. pastor of the, NJ. E. church
the Methodist people are uniting for
two Sundays in worship with the
people of the Congregational church.
Last Sunday goodly number of the
Methodist people came to the Con-
gregational church. At that time
he service was wholly in charge of
the Congregational people, who were
plad to welcome their Methodist
brethren in this way. The Congre-
gational choir sang. Mr.. Cave sang
a solo very acceptably. The SER
mon was preached by Rev. A. E. Fish
on What It Means To Be A Chris
tian." He laid down the proposition
that it means to be loyal to the cause
of Jesus Christ, that that cause was
the cause of Good against Evil, the
welfare of mankind against the suf-
ering of mankind To be loyal TO
Jesus seems to have as the guide If
our life the welfare of others, the
advancement of His Kingdom.
Next Sunday, August 1st. the
Congregational church viii go to the
Methodist church. The time will be
the usual time for worship at the M.
E. church at 1920. The closing ex
ercises in the Congregational church
Sunday school will be omitted so that

time, The sermon will be preached

SAVING MONEY NOW AND
IN "THE GOOD OLD DAYS

That it is easier to save money
now, notwithstanding the high cost
of living, than it was years ago, isl
ings Committee, which has just isl
sued schedule Of prices and wages
paid centuries ago to prove it's as
sertion.
In the middle of the 18th century
eggs were two cents dozen, goose
cost 6 cents and hen cents. But
ter was 2 cents a pound and beef a
half cent. Milk sold for 2 cents a
gallon and cheese for one cent a
pound. By the sixteenth century
butter had gone to cents a pound,
beef and pork to one cent a pound
and sugar to 27 cents, In the eigh-
teenth century chickens had advanc-
ed to 81 cents each, butter to II cents
pound, cheese to 5 cents a pound
milk to l cent pint and meat to 6
cents pound.
In spite of these prices however
it was just as hard to get the where
withal to buy as at present, fol
From 1900 to 1900 A. D. the average
wage for unskilled labor was s cent.
day. In fact in 1347 wages hat
dropped to cents a day for Ions
days work but after the grea
plague of the Black Death they ad
vanced to cents day, continuing
to advance until they reached s.
cents a day in 1900
|, The worker of the old day was un
, able to secure interest on his say
ings nor was he offered a safe op
, portunity to invest. Government Sav
ings officials here pointed out tina
the present day workman not onl
could save money because of hig
= wages but that he had an opportun
: ty to secure interest on his saving
= They declared the working ma
;. ;. could not find a safer investmer
= now than War Savings Stamps.

PANIC AVERTED

The railroad reorganization law
enacted by the present Congress
saved the United States from a
financial panic according to the re-
cent statement of Representative
Israel M. Foster of Ohio. "The
railroads cost our Government ST.
100000 for every day they were un-
der Government operation" he states.
They were going into bankruptcy
with 25 per cent of all the railroad
bonds owned by the insurance COM
panies and savings banks. In other
words the average citizen who carries
life insurance for the protection IF
his family had his money invested
IN the very securities which were
about to be destroyed. In my judg-
cement the Cummins-Esch law will
prevent breakdown of our trans
portation systems during the transi-
| to private management,
tion period from Federal operation
