nANTE,C INFERNO

DAN lint LIb4NOt
Are the people of today headed
toward Paradise or Perdition ? That
is the big surprise angle OF this
modernized version OF the noted
classic.
To attempt to convey in words an
adequate idea of the majestic gran
deur of this eye-tilling production is
futile. AS a spectacle-as spur to
the imagination-as splendid
example of unsupported possibilities
now within the power of the motion
picture camera, it stands unique. 1t
begins and ends with a modern
story, which has been skilfully in
terwoven with the scenes which take
place in Inferno.

BRUNO FOLKS HONOR
PASTOR WHO LEAVES
Rev. C. Ward Simpson Goes
to ulu t h.-Four
Years at Bruno.

A farewell party was given at
the Presbyterian church Friday
evening for Rev. C. Ward Simp-
son. About 1876 of his friends
gathered at 8 o'clock and the fol-
lowing program was rendered
at 9:
Song by all; scripture reading.
James Zbytoosky; prayer, Mr..
Hendricks; piano duet, Hattie
Skinner and Fred Murphy;
speech, Mr.. Hendricks; vocal
duet, Mrs. Rist and Miss Osborne;
history of the church, Mrs. Jno.
Stafford; vocal solo, Arden Ga
briel; piano duet, Hattie Skinner
and Fred Murphy; Poem, Mr..
Adams; vocal solo, Mrs. Denie
Douglass. Arthur Hanson made
the presentation speech.
Rev. Simpson responded with a
brief speech but one that will
long be remembered. He spoke
of the tie that would long bind
him to the hearts of the Bruno
people and here where he began
his first pastorate, would always
hold dear to him, and in a few
words made plain that his de-
parture from Bruno was an ans
wer to Gods call and to be will
ling to break the loving home
ties here and go to a new field
of much larger and greater op-
portunities to work for his Lord
and Master. He said he had no
vocabulary that would express
his appreciation to the people for
kindness, hospitality and loyal
support they had given him dur
ing his four years here. After
Rev. Simpsons speech they all
sang God be with You Till We
Meet Again. Lunch was then
served.
We would like to be able to

would like to have had published
this week. but lack Of time did
not permit. We hope in the next
issue or so to have his farewell
sermon published. The church
was filled almost to the limit
Sunday, and no one left the build
ing disappointed for Rev. Simp-
son as usual delivered a sermon
such as many do not have the
privilege to listen to. The people
here surely have been greatly
blessed in the past four years to
hear sermons such as Rev. Simp-
son delivered, and no one who
listened to him can. when they
meet their God. say II am lost
because Simpson failed TO make
plain that the way of the Cross
is the only way that leads to
Cod, but rather will have to
say, mot one Sunday did he fail
to warn us but we are sorry now
we failed to follow the teaching
of his sermons. May the people
in Duluth, he goes to minister
unto, be permitted to enjoy his
services as we have and may our
loss be a great spiritual gain to
the people there.
Rev. Simpson left on the noon
train Thursday for his new
work.

pen the words spoken by Mr.,
Hendricks but cannot. The
thought carried through his talk
was the working of Gods great
plan in the life of each individ-
ual; how God called Rev. Simpson
to leave his home friends and all
in Utica, Pennsylvania, to come
to Bruno to do the work He had
planned for him here; how he
himself came from Iowa here to
do the work God had for him,
etc. Then he spoke of how those
whom the Lord had in his service
were welded together by the ties
of Christian fellowship and each
fitted into their particular place.
Arthur Hanson spoke very fitting
words in his presentation speech
and the poem written by Mr..
Adams by special request appears
herewith. The music by the diff
ferent ones was greatly enjoyed
also, and the whole affair will
long be remembered by all those
present. Rev. Simpson was pre-
sented with a beautiful genuine
leather brief case and a check
with which to buy a couple of
books he desired.

WE'RE SENDING HIM AWAY!


Dedicated to c. Ward Simpson by E. w. Adams
We're sending him away our preacher friend
The joy we have today, must sometime end
We've tried to use him right;
That's why we're here tonight
To wish him well, his future to portend
Twas some four years ago, since first he came
In that short time know he can't win fame;
But better still he's won
Respect of every one,
And where he's going now, he'll win the same.
He's been friend to all, both here and there
He's heard our every call. no matter where.
He's helped us all along.
With counsel, praise and song
Inside the church out he did not care.
We've tried to give to him, as well as take,
Although his form is slim. we've tried to make
1t hold doughnuts, and custard pies
And chicken legs of monstrous sze
With buildings, sauce and every kind of cake
He's found out where we keep our charity
And also had peep at our popularity.
He's found how bad the good can be.
And in the bad he oft may see
The things he thought most often were rarity.
We're letting him go away much as he came,
He hasn't changed today, single name
Among our bunch of maidens fair,
Nor does he seem at all to care
Just where each jealous mother puts the blame.
We're sending our good will, why shed a tear?
He's going forth to fill larger sphere;
Though leaving all of us behind
We know we're often in his mind,
For distance makes our recollectons DEAR
Well say adieu, but not fond farewell;
A friend that's true we'll never have to tell
When he is lonely or is here about
He'll always find our latch-strings hanging out,
And from our arder most welcome smell
We're sending him away, just out of sight.
For after hard day, he has the night
The night that's made for rest
May his efforts all be best
And may he say. "Old Bruno used me right"
