site, Jackson WEIGH and others. OF the.
charter members only A. J. Smithson
and wife and Mrs. Eva Libby Norris
remain in the neighborhood.
Without question very early In the
history of the church a number Of others
soon joined some Of whom are here now.
We are speaking especially Of the char
ter members and families of the church.
There was the usual struggle of the
matter of building proven by the long
subscription list and those yet residing
in the neighborhood could tell Of their
experiences such as hauling material
from other towns and the various Incl
dents attending such an undertaking and
the memory Of Individual ministers pre-
siding here.
The total amount of money expended
is reported at $16O9.74 Of which amount
$435.O0i came from the Presbyterian
Board Of the church erection, being the
equity of the church at large still re-
tanned in the local property.
The original subscription paper is
dated September %, 1889 and on Sunday
January 10, 1890 the house was solemnly
dedicated to the worship of the AL
mighty God.
The clergymen taking part in the de-
dication services were Rev. r., N. Adams
D. D., now gone to his reward; Rev. s..
R. Ferguson, now of Cedar Rapids,
Iowa, ana the man VINO naQ most 10 90
with gathering the congregation, organ
izing the church and plotting through
the building period Rev. David E Evans,
now pastor of Calvary church Of Minne-
apolis.
The memory of people here recalls
with gratitude the work of these men
as we'll as that of others who came and
served later including Rev. w. F. Finch
and Rev. r. prysdale, both Of whom
are yet in their prime: and active in the
Masters service. Cor.

The religious work of the community
until an organization is formed may be
and generally is irregular and often
spasmodic and unrecorded.
We have no record of the work here
in Roseville earlier than 1889.
EVangelistic services were conducted
by w. w. Wales of Minneapolis and
Rev. D. b. Evans early that summer and
followed by a few months of preaching
A Rev. Mr.. Vanderbeak being the minis
ter.
Then Sept. 4, 1889 the church was or
ganized. The charter members were as
follows: Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Christie,
Mr.. and Mrs. G. w. Hudson, Mr.. and
Mrs. L. E. Daniels, Mr.. and Mrs. w. e.
Libby, Miss Eva Libby, Miss Ada Libby,
Miss Florence Swihart Mr.. A. Grant,
Mr.. Harry Jones and O. w. Parker.
c. w. Hudson, Charles Christie and
A. J. smithson were elected ruling
elders and Mr.. Hudson was for several
years superintendent Of the Sabbath
school.
inst where services were first held
is not indicated, but later in the same
autumn they are definitely known to
| have been held in the Long Lake school
house and evidently no time was lost
in preparing to build a house of Worship.
At this time there was no English
| speaking church with house Of worship
of any denomination any where in the
| country outside of Willmar.
Hawick and Burbank were built the
same season and dedicated the same day,
| January 10, 1890.
The earliest of the documents pertain
ing to the legal organization of the

for election Of trustees in the Long
Lake school house and is dated Nov

bers of the congregation: A. J. Smith.

w|LlMAR SCHOOL NOTES

The Dental Clinic which was. conduct
ed in Willmar recently for the benefit
Of school children revealed some very
startling conditions. Out of 277 child
rem examined only six were found to
possess perfect set Of teeth. In some
cases children of years old had lost
nearly all of their permanent teeth, If
the same proportions hold good through
only 40 children out of 1900 who have
perfect teeth. Surely condition like
this Is alarming and should lead par
ents to do all in their power to take
care of their children's teeth.
Last Sundays edition Of the Minnea-
polls Tribune contained essays on Thrift
together with pictures of the youthful
writer's. One Of the essays written by
Willmar School pupils was also publish
ed. This essay was written by Julian
Alderman, a pupil in the fourth grade
of the Lincoln School We all feel very
proud Of him.
The high school basket ball teams
played two games last week. On Fri
day, January 18th, the second team took
on the Maynard basketball team. At
the end of the first half Maynard had
the long end Of the score, so that it
was necessary to run in a few first
team players in the second half in order
to win. The final score was % to 16 in
favor of Wi1lmar. On Saturday even
ing the boys played at Benson and lost
by score of 20 to IL. This week we
play at Hancock on Friday and Muir

Mr.. E. M. Phillips, state high school

The site of the building was donated
by jackson WEIGH who then owned the
farm lying east and south of the build
ing site. The erection of the building
would seem to have been a very spon-
taneous and popular movement. r..
There is no question but that two
things predominated Of these leaders Of
thirty years ago. S>-
The feeling that the true welfare Of
the community demanded the corrective
and inspiring influence of the church
and that they needed for them selves
and their children the educational and
spiritual discernment and force which
the church gives.
In the second place these men en-
joyed spirit Of unity and cooperation
that was certainly most commendable.

DROPSY TREATED FREE
BY DR.. Miles, the Great Specialist Who
Sends q 1915 Trial Treatment Free
Many Reported Cured After Doctors
Failed

At first no disease is apparently
more harmless than dropsy; q little
swelling OF the eyelids, hands. feet,
ankles or abdomen. Finally great
shortness OF breath, cough. faint spells
sometimes nausea and vomiting, and a
lingering and wretched death is the
dropsy II not cured.
DR.. Miles has been known as lead
ing specialist in these diseases for 80
years. His liberal offer of $3.75
Treatment free to all sufferers is GER
tainly worthy Of serious consideration.
You may never have an opportunity
again.
The Grand Dropsy Treatment consists
of four dropsy remedies in one also
Tonic Tablets and Pura-Laxa for re-
moving the water. This treatment is
specially prescribed for each patient
and Is three times as successful as that
of most physicians. It usually relieves
the first day, and removes swelling In
six days in most cases. Delay Is dan
gerous.
