Barn Yard Golf.

National championships in barn
ward golf" or pitching horse shoes
are to be held at st. Petersburg, Fla.
beginning February 22.
The aristocratic sports of Europe
had to have their manufactured
quoits to play this ancient game in
their polished way, but the farm
hands of America have had as much
fun in their simpler fashion. They
would pick up the rough and rusty
old horse shoes kicking around the
barn, and improvise essentially the
same game in the coward and thrill
the neighborhood.
Pitching horse shoes was favor
tie sport at noon hour at many old
time factories. Workmen that got
the kinks out of their systems in
that way, never got worked up by
soap box orators. Pitching horse
shoes is not as easy as it looks. A
good shot calls for a Judgment Of
distance and drop that would bother
many rifemen to excel at a 500 yard
mark.

DIR. HAWKINS A
GIFTED SPEAKER
Special Services at Methodist Church
Ended Sunday Night and Rev.
Hawkins Returned to indie
pendence.
NEW PROGRAM
TO BE CONTINUED
On Friday Evening a Reception to
the New Members Will be Given
at the Church.

The two weeks series Of special
services at the Methodist church
came to an end with the evening ser
vices on Sunday night. The Rev. Mr..
Hawkins returning to Independence
on Monday.
| In spite of the heavy fall of snow
Sunday the last service on Sunday
was attended by a crowd which near
ly filled the church. DR., Hawkins was
at his best and made a fervent and
stirring presentation of the gospel
closing with an appeal that all yield
their will and by consent and in prac-
tice live their lives by the Christian
standard. At the close of the service
an informal testimony meeting was
held and all who desired gave ex-
preston to their appreciation of the
meetings. DR.. Willett of the Congre-
gational church, who had closed his
evening service that he and his con-
Methodists, spoke enthusiastically of
the meetings and specially of the SER
vices of Rev. Mr.. Hawkins. From
all parts Of the church were given
testimony to the helpfulness of the
meetings in personal religious ex-
perienceS.
So generally has DR.. Hawkins in
gratiated himself into the affect
ions of the people by his straight
forward, earnest and pleasing presen-
tation of the Gospel, that, by request
from many of the people of all de-
nominations who have enjoyed the
services, the Official Board appoint
ed M. ID. Whitney to state that an
opportunity to make free will of
fering to Rev. Hawkins would take
the place Of the usual offering. In
spite of the fact that the subject
was not announced until the last
service and the crowd was compare
lively small on account of the storm,
the offering to DR.. Hawkins amount
ed to $500. Dr. Willett presented
the offering to Mr.. Hawkins who ex-
pressed his appreciation. The offering
came as a pleasing surprise as DR..
Hawkins came with the understand
ing that his services were to be gra-
It's and only railroad fare and en-
tertainment were to be supplied.
The Fathers and Mothers meet
ing III the AFTERNOON brought out an
audience which filed the church de-
spite the storm. The Fathers" were
ushered "To the Right" and the "Mo-
theirs" were ushered ITO the Left"
on entering the church. There was
some criticism that it was an ar
rangement uncomp limentary to the
women to send them to the left, to
which criticism Mr.. Hawkins diplo-
stated that the order would
be reversed in the last day.
The morning service was cele-
brated as a Membership Service"
and an opportunity was afforded
those who desired to do so to unite
with the church. A total of twenty
one was received into membership
either by letter or by confession of
faith. Those uniting by Confession
