from such.
The intimation that (or the
Church) have taken this stand merely
in spite against any institution of this
or any other town is false. The Meth
odist Episcopal Church has warned
against the dance for several genera
tons before the oldest inhabitants of
Big Springs were born. This church
opposes bootlegging and stands for
strict enforcement of the prohibition
laws. BY like logic the "bootleggers'
might imagine it was seeking to work
snite against them. This church
stands on principles and convictions
learned from the teachings contained
in very old BOOK. The pastor has
all his ministry warned against the
dance; he did not begin lately.
The rumor that the Church demand
ed that an institution of this town be
closed. is false. The pastor has ex-
pressed himself as earnestly wishing
that some splendid amusement in
which all could conscientiouslv coop

dance feature. Surely that is fair.
