RODMAN

In response to a brief, yet pointed
talk from our pastor at a reception
given by the church, assisted by the
/ Methodist church and the people at
| large In the school room last Friday
night, April 21. This social was given
for the special benefit of Rev. Wiley F
Martin, who has been our faithful and
| beloved pastor for the last two years
but who HOW feels the call OF the Holy
Spirit back to his old home IN Pensa-
cola, and he will preach his last SER
mon to us the fifth Sunday in this
month. which will be next Sunday.
At the close of the reception, after a
few brief remarks, Brother Martin was
showered with a host of gif1s which
to those who presented him with same.
During the evening ice cream and cake
were served In plenty. and all present
seemed to have q real good time.
The church and community at large,
in fact the whole town of Rodman,
has immensely profited by Brother
Martins administration here with US,
and within the past two years he has
greatly endeared himself to us by his
amiable character and earnest devo-
ton to duty, and the hearty interest
he has manifested in our welfare as a
people; therefore, we consider 1t a
great loss to lose Brother Martin, but
as we are taught The closest friends
must part, ana when we think of this
we must consider that it is for the
best that Brother Martin IS leaving
us. However, we feel like our loss is
west Florida's gain in having this no
BILE and great preacher go back
amongst them.
From the pulpit he has been faithful
in presenting the precepts OF our reli-
gion, and he has warned us against
the evils that constantly beset us, and
has earnestly pleaded to seek out true
happiness In the paths of rectitude and
peace, and right here we can say that
the church has been greatly revived
by the coming OF this faithful servant
of God
In our homes he has been our sim
cere sympathizing counselor and
truest friend. In our hours of pain and
sorrow he has spoken soothing and
gentle words to or troubled hearts
Our children have been helped by his
instruction, and his benedictions have
and business affairs and in all things
he has proven himself our competent
pastor.
We know that he has been led by
the Spirit of God. and the Spirit has
actuated and controlled him in the
act of resigning our church as pastor
otherwise he would not leave us. We
all have learned to love him and re-
greet to give him up. but. as he said
in his talk, the best OF friends must
part. but with the hope of meeting
again. We know wherever his lot il
cast he will prove great blessing to
those with whom he may come in con-
tact, as he has been to US. our prav-
ers, our sympathies will follow him
and as the years come and go and we
pass out one by one, only a few years
and we VIII meet him beyond the river
where the surges cease to roll and live
In the Home of the Soul" the home
he has so often spoken to us about

LEARNING FROM FAIRS.

Almost everyone in Wisconsin has
gone to some county. state or regiona
fair this year and this may be good
time to talk about the real usefulness
of fairs
We once knew a farmer who had been
to hundred fairs, but though he saw
much, he never let it influence his man
agement of his farm. He saw the fine,
sleek cattle, the fat sheep the prize
hogs and all the other perfect or nearly
perfect things that were shown at fairs
and promptly forgot all Of them.
Then there is the other farmer who
says most of the incentive for improv-
ing lis place has come from attending
fairs. He went over the Poland China
hog exhibits one year, selected the best
looking pigs and got in touch with that
breeder to buy stock. Now his hogs
are OF that strain He saw some UNI
usually fine barley and he took pains to
get the name of the exhibitor. Now
this choice barley in staple on his
own farm. He has already picked out
a variety of Barred Plymouth Rock
chickens as his favorite and his exper-
fence at one fair started him on the
route to purebred poultry.
Fairs are capable of the greatest use
fitness. OF course. they also give a
chance for little vacation, for recrea-
ton and for meeting friends good and
desirable things. But the specific pur-
pose is to educate city and country peo-
pie in farming and precious few of us
get the real good out of fairs that we
should.

ALWAYS A SAFE GUIDE.

Every driver of an automobile knows
the Importance of keeping on the right
road. A wrong turn at a fork will take
the tourist many miles from his desti-
nation unless he discovers the error
and cuts over into the right road. The
church acts as help in life to every
man woman and child in this commun-
ity. 1t helps show which is the turn to
make when the sign posts on life's road
are indistinct. 1t also points the correct
way when we have taken the wrong
turn.
Regular church attendance is the best
way to keep in touch with the influence
which holds us to the right course.
