CHURCH UNION NEWS

Large congregations have answered
the efforts of local city-wide evangel-
istic committee of six churches for
the coming campaign April IA. The
first service was held March in the
Presbyterian church. The Rev. E.
Crusius of the Evangelical church
preached the sermon. He compared
the people today to the Israelites of
old who under Joshua were gathered
on the banks of the Jordan but lacked
the necessary courage to brave dan
gers. The spies of today brought dis
torted examples of the dangers as did
the spies of Israel.
The second meeting was a union
prayer meeting at the Methodist
church last Thursday night. The
chapel was filled with about 100 peop-
lie. The Rev. Mckinley of the Con-
gregational church led the meeting.
1t was characterized by hearty sing
ing and earnest testimony of convlnc-
ing power of a personal Savior
The third service was Sunday night
in the Congregational church. This
large church was filled with an over
flow in the gallery. The chorus choir
under Mrs. McNelly led the singing
Win MIS-. AlC at IH6 organ. "A CHOll
anthem and solo by Mrs. McNelly,
the Prodigal Son, were we'll rendered.
The preacher was the Rev. John Biz
rell of the Methodist church. He
spoke on the personal character of
the Holy Ghost. He stated that it was
common to attribute power or in
fluence to the Holy Spirit which was
absolutely wrong and heretical. st.
Paul said to the Ephesians: "Grieve
not the Spirit of God by whom We were
sealed until the Day of Redemption"
He argued that one could not grieve a
power" or an influence" but one
could grieve a person because grief
was IAN emotion of love-"
The next meeting is union prayer
meeting at the Baptist church Thurs
day evening at 1880 and next Sunday
evening the sermon will be preached
by the Rev. A NJ Mclaughlin at the
Methodist church.
The chairman asked the people to
pray and give both of their time and
sympathy to this movement which is
moving so manifestly under the pow
er of God.-***

Highway Comm. FavOrs the

MUSCODA-A new free bridge for
Muscoda is now practically assured.
The Wisconsin Highway Commission,
after due consideration, has found
that the present Muscoda bridge is in
adequate for all practical purposes
and has found that a new bridge is
necessary.
The bridge is to be 1850 feet in
length and 20 feet wide, to cost $780,
900, of which the town of Eagle and
the village of Muscoda will each pay
100000, psread out over many years.
Automatically, Grant and Richland
counties each will pay 100000, also
spread out over number of years,
and the state will pay the remaining
100000.
Muscoda citizens may well feel Ella

given preference over other bridge
propositions now before the commits

A REQUEST
FOR CHILD
EDUCATION
John Kelley of WOOdman,
Lover of Childhood, Re-
members Little Friends.

The will of John Kelley of Wood
man, filed for probate on March 8,
shows that the big heart of the for
mer county road commissioner ex-
tends beyond the grave in the form of
requests to further the education of
childhood.
John Kelley was self-made man.
Like many self-made men who did not
have full educational advantages, he
placed a high value on same. In his
will he provides for the aid to an ed
ucation of number of boys and girls.
In addition to numerous family be-
quests, Mr.. Kelley's will provides the
following:
VIM, Robert and Betty Kelley,
grandchildren, receive 500 each.
Paul, Lloyd, Raymond, Dorothy and
Donald Glynn receive 500 each.
Harold Kelley, nephew, receives
$500 to assist him in his education.
Milton Devlin receives 800 when he
finishes Fennimore high school.
Pauline Devlin receives 500 when
she obtains a diploma from the Little
Green or other district school.
Lorraine Lull receives 500 when
she graduates from high school.
Leola and Elizabeth Budack, Cliff
fore Rands, Patrick Kelley, Mildred
Riley, Ellen and Ruth Weir, all re-
ceive 500 upon graduating from high
school.
Alice and Elizabeth Glynn receive
500 in aiding them to attend school,
Helen McGuigan receives 800 as

that the lucky children will always
remember the kindness and friendly
interest of John Kelley.

A New Slant
On Education.

Percy Marks, author of significant
book called "The Plastic Age" which
deals with problems of college young
people, gives a new slant on college
crowding. Mr.. Marks says, very
blunty, that large percentage at
tend higher schools who have no bus
mess there because they have neither
the mental gifts nor the desire for
learning that makes an individual
stand out as one needing college
training
In an address before the student
body at Madison Mr.. Marks said good
plumbers were being cheated out of a
job and good cooks spoiled by col
leges and universities. Going to col
lege has become the thing to do, there
fore it is done like number of other
conventional things without rhyme or
reason.
Among other things Mr.. Marks says
the young people of today are not as
great in SHINING as their ancestors,
but have worse manners. Girls in
class rooms take notes copiously-no
one knows why. Boys go into a class
room, sit on the napes of their necks,
look at an instructor belligerently and
say. damn you, interest me if you
can"
At the close of his sparkling, sizz-
ling address, Mr.. Marks gave vent to
something really fine. 1t was:
An education is matter of learn
ing how to live-nothing else. If in a
college you find some understanding
Of yourself, of life, of the beauty in
life, then your college days have been
worth while"

a blast, which he was using in blast

face over a log and received the full
