BAPTIST ASSOCIATION
MEETING AT BELLEVIEW

What viii be known as the biggest,
best attended, wide-awake conference
o. association ever held in BeIleview,
took place Wednesday and Thursday
of last week. when the Baptists of the
district were royalty entertained by
the Belleview Baptists and their
friends.
Wednesday morning found the
crowds gathering and when the hour
for the opening business meeting ar
} rived, there were delegates from ev-
cry church in the district, a notable
fact, as this was the first time in the
history Of the association that every
church had been fully represented at
conference. They were here this
time, though. One or two delegates
accompanied by from two 20 dozen
or more Of his own church members,
made up this splendid showing from
every church.
At ten o'clock Col. r. F. Rogers as
monitor, offered prayer and called the
meeting to order, and when he looked
at the crowd already arrived and
heard the cars coming up regularly,
bringing more delegates and friends,
then remembered that there were only
two days in which to handle the af-
fairs of the association, he knew
there was work ahead.
At IL O'Clock Rev Boatwright of
Anthony, preached. He held the at
tention of the audience with ease as
bis words were well chosen and deliv-
cred.
At II o'clock word was passed that
dinner would be served on the
grounds and it was spread long to
be remembered. The town people
turned out en- masse, most every FAM
lily bringing or sending something
good to eat. Pies, cakes, hot coffee,
even the Methodist fried chicken was
there and how those Baptist preach
ers did partake of the special Metho-
dist dish. BUT as tho by appointment,
o gentle Baptist rain was falling to
keep them ever reminded of their
faith.
At three o'clock there was another
business meeting and at six supper
on the grounds, and there were eats
in abundance.
At 7:30 there was sermon by Rev.
Burnett of WiIliston. that simply took
the house by storm. It was rumored
around that he was the youngest
preacher in the conference. We didn't
hear what age, however. but he car

so? Yes, indeed, they did. For he
mingled among the crowd as a
preacher among preachers, well liked
and knowing he had been well sup
ported, which gave him encourage
ment and confidence to push forward
with the good work he had under
taken.
The members of the Baptist church
take this means of expressing their
sincere appreciation to each one who
helped in any way during the confer
ence. Their every kindness counted
in making the affair the complete
success it was. Reporter.

Aberdeen Angus Association Backs
Plan to Help Farmers During

Aberdeen Angus Association Backs
Plan to Help Farmers During
the Credit Stringency.
+ St. Paul, April 21.-Another GROUP
Of Minnesota farmers today announced
it's intention of putting into practical
operation one of the financial policies
demanded by American agricultural
interests.
| w. E. Morris, secretary of the Aber-
deem Angus Breeders association, no.
titled the Minnesota Farm Bureau
federation that the association men,
bers had agreed to support fnanc-
ing plan by which farmers can pur-
chase pedigreed stock on long time
credit.
"American farmers have been de-
handing long time credits as absolute
ly vital to agriculture" Mr.. Morris
said. "The Angus Breeders associa-
ton wants to prove that the farmers
themselves are willing to practice
what they preach. Rather than see
many farmers lose the opportunity to
buy pedigreed stock that might be
building up fine herds in the north
west, tbs association will help make
necessary credit arrangements"
The Minnesota Hereford Breeders
association, through the farm bureau
federation, was the first to announce
a long time credit plan for northwest
farmers. Offices of the Angus asso-
citation are at the University farm,
St. Paul.
