TRINITY LUTHERAN CHURCH
Twenty-fifth Anniversary


The outstanding event in the life of
the Trinity Lutheran church of Grant
wood was the celebration on Sunday
of the twenty-ffth anniversary of its
founding, and it's congregation rose
nobly to the important occasion.
Due to the lack of sufficient seating
capacity in the Grantwood church the
celebration was held in st. PauPs
church, Seventh street, West New
York, which owes its organization to
the same founder as does the Grant
wood church, Pastor Dallman, now of
Milwaukee, Wis.
Between 400 and 500 people attend
ed the special service on Sunday aft
ernoon at o'clock. The altar was
beautifully decorated with palms and
chrysanthemums, furnished by the
Young Peoples Society of Trinity
church, and Pastor Frank Schwartz
of that church officiated in the new
gown which was presented to him by
the congregation in honor of the occa-
sion.
The other ministers who oficiated
were Pastor Dallman, Pastor Frank
Jena and Pastor E. C. Weinlaeder,
who preceded Pastor Schwartz in the
service of the Grantwood church.
The program was as follows:
Prayer, Pastor Schwartz; hymn, con-
gregation introit prayer and Scripture
reading. Pastor Weinlaeder; congre-
gational hymn; sermon, Pastor Dali
man. The text, "Ye Are the Temple
of God"
Letters of congratulation were read
from sister congregations. Mrs. Won
Schenck sang a solo, "The Lord Is MY
Light"
Handsome anniversary booklets
were presented to each of the con-
gregation telling the story OF the
church and including the program and
the photographs of each of the pas
tors who have served it in its twenty
five years of life.
The printing of these booklets was
contributed by the Sunday school OF
the church, each organization doing
its share in some way to insure the
success of this celebration.
Pastor Schwartz and his wife and
two little ones came to Grantwood in
February, 1922, finding the church in
poor condition as to interest and
finances, and his earnest efforts nave
been given since then to its upbulld'
ing.
With high spiritual ideals for both
the older and the younger people OF
his church, especially in regard to the
latter, who he feels are the future
pillars of the organization, the fruit OF
his labors is evidenced in the largely
increased membership and attend
ance and in the improved finances OF
the church, which latter. through his
instrumentality, are now a matter OF
regular subscriptions and not raised
by sundry entertainments. His new
members receive careful instruction
and training through many months,
and he is very much liked by young
and old alike.
I Rev. Mr.. Schwarz and his wife had
their seventh wedding anniversary
last Saturday, and it is hoped that
thew NAV celebrate many more in
Grantwood.
Meetings This Week
The usual meetings of the church
will be held this coming week, and the
Ladies' Aid Society will hold it's meet

KENTUCKY HOLDS
 QUIET ELECTION;
 ONLY ONE KILLED

HAZARD, Kentucky, Nov. IF. (P)- Captain Wooten, of the Kentucky Ma tional Guard, left with twenty-four men for Hyden, Leslie county, in the mountains, to disperse a mob seeking the slayer of Sheriff Joe Morgan, kill ed Saturday.
 Dave Steel, accused of the staying, is reported barricaded in the Citizens Bank of Hyden, while friends of the dead man are maching up and down the streets armed, and uttering many threats of vengeance Steel said he would surrender if assured protection.
 The staying is attributed to the cleo tion of successor to the man, later slain. Morgan's wife, who was run ming to succeed her husband, was de. feated by two votes
 Steel, an influential lumberman of eastern Kentucky, as precinct election officer, refused to count number of votes for Mrs. Morgan on the ground they were spoiled.

BOBBY JONES AS INFANT WAS
 ROCKED BUT NOT TOO PETTED

ATLANTA, Nov. IT. P-Bobby Jones, national amateur golf cham pion, when baby was rocked more than modern physicians would have approved, but was not "petted too much"
 Mrs Robert H. Jones, mother of the golfer, made this statement in connection with a discussion in Alt lanta relative to present day meth ods of caring for babies as compar- ed with those 25 years ago.
 She disagreed with a young ma tron that "the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world" no longer is true. In Mrs. Jones' opinion, ba- bies still are rocked and mothers can find time to do their part of ruling the world even if they spend large part of their time in nurseries.
 Bobby was rocked because he was a delicate child, and young Mrs. Bob- by Jones rocks her six months old daughter, christened Clara Malone but already known as Bobby" when she is sick or needs "extra babying."
 Grandfathers, in the opinion of Grandmother Jones, still are the prin- cipal causes of spoiled babies-but they are not to be blamed, for they know nothing of rearing babies.

DERBY HAS FINE BEAR HUNT ON
 MONTAGUE ISL,

CORDOVA, Nov. IT. (P)-Despite be. ing stormbound for ten days on lonely Montague Island, Dr. Richard Derby, son-in-law of Roosevelt, was intensely pleased with his Prince William Sound hunting trip.
 He shot brown bear, photographed relics of an ancient sea otter hunting settlement.
 Richard Holbrook, formerly with L. Lane, was a member of the hunting party
 Cordovas first snow fell Sunday.
 Henry Lucas, guide for Dr. Rich ard Derby, returned to his local head quaters last Friday on the Alaska and reported the brown bear shot by Dr. Derby to be over seven feet in length. While not a real large specimen, Lucas said it was a very good trophy and the hide was in par ticular was in fine condition.
 Leaving Seward about two weeks ago, Dr. Derby and Lucas went to Latouch where they were met by Frank Cunningham, gasboat owner and fox farm man. They then sail ed for Nellie Martin river, on the North side of Montague Island, where on the second day pr. Derby got his bear, completing his quota of three, having secured two previously on the Kenai peninsula
 The gasboat Shamrock was used on the trip. Rain prevailed turnout the entire hunt, it is stated, but this did not dampen the ardor of Dr. Der by, for he told, Guide Lucas he was planning to return again to Alaska, within the next two years, at which time he anticipated going into the h. terior for a big game hunt. From Montague Island Dr. Derby was taken to Cordova by MT. Cunningham, where Southbound reservations were made on the steamer Alaska.

WIRELESS STATION
 AT FOX RANCH NOW
 OPEN FOR BUSINESS
FIRST PRIVATELY-OWNED PLANT IN ALASKA IT WILLIAMSON
 RANCH MODERN

The commercial wireless station, owned and operated by the William son fox ranch at Kusilof, announce ment of which installation was made in the Gateway last week, is now op- ened for business, according to in- formation received in Seward yester- day. The Williamson ranch is the only fox farm in the Territory to own and operate an independent wireless station
 Visitors to the splendid fox ranch are loud in their praise of the modern conditions existing there. It is doubt full, it is stated, whether in the entire Territory will another fox farm be found which would compare favorably with the Williamson ranch, insofar as modern methods are concerned. An electric light plant furnished power for fifty lamps. Hot and cold running water, not only in the dwell ing but in the fox kitchen as we'll. In this kitchen will be found a large stove for cooking the fox feed; cool CT for the feed; a bone and meat grinder operated by power; also a good sized meat house. The fox pens are large, each of them 20 by 100 feet, with running water in every pen.
 John Luyben, former wireless opera tor of Libby, McNeil & Libby can- nery at Kenai, is the Williamson Sil- yer Fox ranch wireless operator.
