PREbLE TRUSTEES ASK
PERMISSION TO SELL
OLD COUNTRY CHURCH

EATON, O., April S.-With the
passing of the oneroom country school
house for the more modern central
school building comes, apparently, the
RAISING of the small country church
for those in more populated communi-
ues-the villages and towns-at least
in preble county.
Judge A. C. Risinger. in common
pleas court, has just authorized, upon
petition of the trustees. sale Of the
First Christian church of Paint Creek
and Casper township. Few members,
building delapidated, no services for
several years, and many members are
attending the Eaton Christian church,
are reasons for the sale. The property
Is TO be sold at public sale at tho
court house in Eaton to the highest
and best bidder E. NJ Burson and
Emma l.. Kelley are trustees of the
church.
Within the last few years probably
half dozen rural churches of various
denominations have been sold by All
thority Of the courts. In each instance
the membership had become depleted
churches, the building had stood idle
for years and had decayed 10 such a
point that repair was impractical.
Joining in the progress Of the
church world and furnishing a new
departure. the Church of the Brethren,
branch of the Dunkard church. has
well-developed plans for establishing
| P house Of worship in Eaton, which will
mean abandonment Of its rural church

The church's plans are to purchase
n site in Eaton and build a church.
Solicitors are at work now endeavor-
ing to secure contributions in the
aggregate of $4,000, which would in

Brethren Use Church.
For time, when the Eaton Uni
yeHSalist church was without a regular
pastor, the congregation of the Church
Of the Brethren held worship in the
local church With the arrival of a
regular pastor at the church, some
months ago, the Brethren congrega-
| lion vacated.
The meetings in the local church re-
suited in a growing power of the
| brethren denomination. a greatly in
creased membership and interest that
! inspired the heads and congregation of
the church. This led the church to
resolve. If possible, to establish a per
manent house of worship in Eaton, in
ropulace center of the county.

progressive branch of the Dunkard
church and the local church's con
