Rev. Groves at Washington, G. H.

Washington Court House papers
come to our desk with familiar
face on the first page-that of
Rev. G.. e. Groves. The Church Of
Christ of which he is pastor has
just dedicated fine new church
and a most interesting account is
given of the splendid dedicatory
services The church is a very at
tractive looking building. 1t is of
classic design, is built of brick
trimmed with Bedford limestone
1t is 100 feet long, so wide and
33 high and in addition to the main
floor has two balconies and a base
ment. It is modern in every re-
spect and splendidly equipped to
meet all needs. The cost of the new
edifice is almost $4,000. $4,000
of this amount in cash and pledges
has been raised since Rev. Groves
began his pastorate there. Jan. l,
1916. On dedication day more than
$4,000 above what was needed to
wipe out ali indebtedness was rails
ed in cash and pledges. The pas
tor may justly feel proud of the
achievement of his congregation
and his many friends here will read
with great interest of the good
work at Washington, c. II.

Two ExceIlent Addresses

Mrs. Lucy Van Kirk, of Granville
editor of the Ohio Messenger, spent
Sunday in Malta, and was the speak
er featuring publicity day for the
Woman's Home Missionary Society
Mrs. ]. N. Barlow, president. Mrs.
van Kirk has most pleasing pres
ence, and even before hearing her
speak, her audience felt drawn to
her by the kindly radiance of her
countenance. Her address at the
morning service was to tell of the
service the w. II. M. S. is doing in
this country in the effort to Christ
ianize and Americanize our people.
She presented the story so clearly
and with such a beautiful Christian
spirit permeating every thought and
utterance, and with brightness
and with warm genial touches that
all who heard her were very inter-
ested and pleased. In the evening
service she told the story Of Morde-
cal and Esther, making in her own
char acteristic way application of
the story to the thought and pur-
pose OF the days services. Mrs. Van
Kirk believes the world is getting
better; that there are more good
people than bad; that temperance is
here to stay; that the persistent ef-
fort to discount national prohibition
in just the wriggle of the snake af-
ter it has been killed. The Irishman
said of a snake-"He's dead but he
don't know 1t yet." and so it is with
all these efforts of Incorporate peo-
pie. Mrs. Van Kinks two addresses
were an inspiration to the society
which she represented and to all her
hearers. While here she was the
guest of Rev. and Mrs. Frank Gilli-
Ian.

The McConnelsville w. C. T. U.
was very pleasantly entertained
Tuesday, April 4, at the home Of
Mrs. Ida Pyle. 1t was meeting
of unusual interest, but cannot be

program was presented by Mrs.
Mary Bingham. Topic-"Increased
Membership-It's Purpose and Pow
er." Plans were consummated for an
intensive membership drive. This
drive will begin on April 26, and
will close May 16. Every member
is expected to give three hours to
the membership campaign and use
her best efforts to secure three new
paid up members. It is important
that we not only push the member
ship drive, but that we carry on
campaign of education against the
bringing back of wine and beer.
The vets are sending out invita-
tons for new members in their or
ganization, known as the associa-
hon opposed to prohibition, and are
working hard to bring back wine
and beer. They hope to have
referendum vote in Ohio this fall on
this very measure. and their aim is
to annul our prohibition laws. Ev-
cry woman who loves God and home
and humanity is needed in this cru
cial hour and should make certain
she go to the polls next November
and cast her ballot for members
of congress who stand for the en-
forcement of prohibition laws.
