Chicago, Sept 26-Ten thousand Christian Chinese troops and thous- ends of other Chinese, both Christian Sani non-Christian, gathered in Honan province in a monster open-air pray CT me neeting for rain, according to representatives of the Methodist Elpis- copa1 church, working in China.
 Continued droughts during the spring and early summer in Honan province aroused fears among the Chinese people of a return of famine and whole villages went on pilgrim ages to the temple of their rain god in Yu Tao He valley to pray for rain.
 Major General | Feng Yu .Hsiang, member of the Asbury Methodist Epis- copaa Church of Picking and com mander of the Eleventh division of the Chinese army, sent Gut an invi- tation to all Christians to meet with ais troops in prayer for rain.
 A grand review of the Eleventh di- vision was held. The national an- them was sung and an address was given and General Fend prayed that the sins of the Honan people be vis- tied upon his head and the punish ment of drought be lifted.
 It happened that two hours after the meeting closed a heavy rain fell, missionaries report

SERVICE APPRECIATED

The following letter from the May

the readers of the Tribune 1t in part
is as follows:
Napoleon, Ohio
To Mayor Oakley and Council:
At the request OF the Village Coun-
Gil OF Napoleon, | am writing you to
express our appreciation of your
fine service to US on the morning of
Decmeber 31st, 1921, when it seemed
as though half Of the village were
doomed to the ravages of fire. We
all here feel that the Wauseon Fire
Department just saved US at the
critical time, and we shall always
stand ready to reciprocate in any way
possible.
Please forward expense at your
convenience.
Very truly yours,

Dear Mayor and Council:
In reply to yours of recent date, ]
took up the matter with Council and
Fire Department. We have no bill
to render for fire on Decmeber 31st,

bunch that wanted to make charge.
We were glad we were of service to
you.
Very truly yours,

STATE AID
WHERE 1T WILL GO

The County Commissioners will
leave Monday for Columbus where
they will meet the Director of High
ways and an outline of the work for
this year will be gone over. The State
will make known where Aid will be
given at this time and County Com
missioners from every county in the
state will be present on Tuesday and
Wednesday.
The aid that was to have come to
Wauseon for West Elm Street will
probably be used in other places in
the county as there are several places
that have applied for State Aid and
are ready to make use of it.
This town had chance to get over
$4,000 from the State for aid on
West Elm street and the tax that is
paid into the state is about $4,000. 1t
is evident that this aid is lost for the
town and that it will go elsewhere.
The time is not far off when this
street will have to be built and it
looks now as if the property owners
will have to build it themselves.
