CHRISTIAN CHURCH

Regular services at the Christian
church next Sunday morning and
evening. The sermon topic for
the morning will be Goods Esti-
nation of You" The topic for
the evening will be "a Touch with
the Real Life and Experiences Of
Men Today" The experiences Of
men today are having no small de-
gree of influence upon their opin-
ion Of Christianity and their own
religious life. It has been my op-
portunity to undergo some Of these
experiences for the last four weeks
while enduring my vacation. A
vacation Is of little value either
to minister OF to the church
which he serves unless he can
bring back from that vacation
something of real value to the
thought life of today as it touches
the actual activities Of men. I
feel that l have been living among
the actual activities of men for
the last few weeks and shall try to
bring back to the church some Of
my impressions on next Sunday
evening. | shall be glad to meet
with a large attendance at all SER
vices. Let us all be in our places
on next Sunday with renewed zeal.
Our next few weeks should be full
of preparation activities for the
fall work which will soon be here.

HERE IN SEARCH OF
BOYHO0D FRIENDS.
After Twenty-fonr Years,
Former Exiraite Tries
to Locate Old Chums

Mr.. Byron E. Butlin, of East
Aurora, New York, is visiting old
friends and schoolmates here. Mr..
Butlin lived here over thirty years
lago with his. father, W.. H. E.
Butlin, when Byron was but a
small boy. Byron visited Extra in
1897, twenty-four years ago, and
at that time knew and got ac-
quainted with lot of the young
people here.
Mr.. Butlin says old Extra is not
the same to him as'it was in those
days, for the reason that he is not
able to find many of his old
friends. The greater share have
moved away, some are dead, and
those that are here are married and
are fathers and mothers, and in
some cases, are grandparents; and
SO he says it makes his heart ache.
Byron says time makes changes
and we change with time. Mr..
Butlin has lost two wives and one
son since he was with us twenty
four years ago, and has been a
wldower now over two years with
two beautiful little sons back in
New York state of whom he is
very proud.
He has been touring the U. S.
the past seven months; went south
first, then west to California and
up the coast as far as Washington,
back by way of Salt Lake, and is
now on his way back home. He
tells us he has had most won
derful trip over the plains, high
ways, mountains and seashores; in
fact, most everything in the south
!; and west he has seen. He says the
things he has seen have broadened
his views of life to great extent.
He is stopping at the Park Hotel
and wishes to let his friends know
that he would be pleased to have
them call on him and, in case they
can not conveniently do 50, he will
be glad to look them up if he can
locate item:

BADLY INJURED WHEN

had Accident Befalls Dean
Roe While ON Way to
Lakes with Friends

Dean Roe was badly injured in
an auto accident last Sunday when
he turned the car which he was
driving into a bank to avoid col
Hiding with another car in turning
q corner
The accident occurred at the
Nels Christensen corner, seven
miles north of Audubon. In the
car were Dean and his brother,
Lloyd, Miss Stacey Lang, of At
aantic, and Miss Leona Moore, of
Omaha.
When the car stuck the en-
bankment, it turned completely
over, throwing the occupants out.
Miss Moore was severely bruised

aies in serious condition. He re-
ceived a deep cash on his face,
"a cut on his head and severe
bruises about his neck and shoul-

cause of the high weeds, did not
see the approaching car in which
were Mr.. and Mrs. Gus Forsbeck

avoid a collision, Roe steered his
car into the embankment. The
car, which was a Paige coupe, was
completely demolished.
