CHRISTIAN CHURCH

| Regular services at the Christian
church next Sunday. The sermon
topic for the morning will be "The

The lecture on Wednesday night,
April 9th, will be upon the work Of
the Beginners Department of the
Sunday School. The Cradle Roll
and Beginners Departments of the
Sunday School present specially
fruitful fields for religious educa-
ton. The influences thrown around
the children of these ages are char
acter determining influences which
count greatly for the future. The
public school commences to take
care of their general education
about the time they are ready to
leave the Beginners Department
of the Sunday School. Their edu-
cation of whatsoever kind, up to-
this time must be taken care of in
the home and the church. Let us
study our problem together and
try to fit ourselves to assume this
task in a manner which will be
commendable. These are years
when the child is absorbing the at
mosphere of mis- environment like
sponge absorbs water. Letu us try
to make this environment whole
some intelligently. Our books
from the state library have come
and we want to commence making
use of them,

nevolent institutions amounted to

FREE HEAL Til CLINIC
IN EXTRA, APRIL 9TH
Noted Specialists Will Be
Here to Make Exami-
nations

At the Health Clinic held in Au-
dubon January 21, 1921, the at
tendance was so large that a great
number did not have an opportu-
nifty to be examined. For the ben
eft Of those and others that might
like to consult a specialist, a simi-
lar Clinic will be held in Extra at
the Extra Public School, April Sth,
1921, from 8 am. to 6 p. m.
DR. John Fl. Peck, president of
the Iowa Tuberculosis Association
and DR.. Scarborough, superintend-
ent of the Oakdale Sanitarium will
have charge Of the chest examina-
tions. Some special reasons for a
chest examination, are:
If you have had grip, influenza
or pneumonia.
If you tire easily; catch cold cas-
lily; if you have a cough; clear
your throat often; if you are losing
weight; if you have afternoon fe-
vers or spit blood.
DR.. G. A. May, ear, nose and
throat specialist, will examine and
give advice to those presenting
themselves at this clinic.
DR.. ]. A. Dysen. child specialist
from Des Moines, will examine
children and advise parents on
child care.
At the Audubon Clinic we felt
the need Of a doctor who could ex-
anime cases of general character,
and have been fortunate in secur-
ing DIR. johnson of Omaha, who is
general diagnostician, and will be
in charge of such examinations. \
The County Clinic affords your
physicians an opportunity to COM
pare his ideas with those of other
physicians who have specialized in
tuberculosis, child care and dis
eases of the nose and throat,
The Clinic will benefit persons
who now have a disease, because
it furnishes diagnosis and recom-
mendations thereon. 1t benefits
the person who is not aware that
anything is the matter with him
because it discovers conditions that
need remedying, and refers him to
the service of the local physician.
The Clinic is of great service to
the general public because it
arouses interest in health, bringing
to the community health conditions
which exist throughout the county
and impresses in the mind of the
reading public the Importance of
periodical medical examination. 1t
affords means Of conveying to
the public knowledge about simple
rules of health and suggests incen-
tives for their observance.
Children under twelve years
should be accompanied by an
adult.

She united with the Christian
church at Extra in the fall Of 1919,
Of which organization she was a
true and faithful member, always
lovingly, willingly and kindly do
ing the work assigned to her. She
aad filled the position of secretary
Of her Sunday School for about
Jour years. Her duties in this po-
sition seemed to be a Joy and a
pleasure for her, and she endeared
herself to every member of the con-

member of the sophomore class in
the high school she was much loved
by both teachers and classmates.

OF the immediate members of
She family, she leaves to mourn her
departure, her father and mother,
one sister, Nettie, and two broth
ers, Willis and Ri hard. In addi-
zion to these, there are d number
of other near relatives and an un-

her going is a deep and lasting
bereavement. The whole commu-
nifty is bowed down before the GO
ing of this beautiful and service

loss, but we know that our loss is

She is at rest,
In Gods own presence blest,
Whom, while with us, this day we
loved to greet.
Her tolls are DER,
She counts the years no more,
Times football is not heard along
the golden street.
That strange "new song
Amid the white-robed throng,
Is flowing from her harp in living
tone;
Her seraph voice,
Tuned only to rejoice,
Floats upward to the emerald
arched throne.
No passing cloud
Her loneliness may shroud;
The beauty of her youth NAV
never fade.
No line of care
Her sealed brow may wear;
The 3oy-gleam OF her eye no dim
ness e'er may shade
Her faith is sight,
Her hope is full delight,
The shadowy veil of time is rent
in twain.
Her untold bliss
What thought can follow this!
For her to live was Christ to die
was gain.
A little while,
And she, whose loving smile
Had melted meath the touch of
lonely woe,
Shall reach her home
Beyond the star-built dome;
Her anthem they shall swell, her
Joy they, too, shall know.

BEST VEGETABLES TO PLANT

Some beginners in gardening be
come very enthusiastic in early spring
when they look through seed cata-

every kind of vegetable deliberately
described and favorably illustrated.
As a rule not more than - or 20
kinds of vegetables should be planted
in the average home garden. say sDe-
ciGliStS of the United States Depart

also realize the importance Of we'll
prepared seed beds. PulveriZe the soil
