Church was burned, that the peo-
pie, and especially the young, used
to assemble themselves together in
the old temple in what was called a
mld-Week prayer and praise meet
ing. At these old fashioned gospel
meetings, great good was accom-
plished. The young members were
trained in the ways of the Lord.
The older ones who attended were
strengthened from a spiritual stand
point. The general outcome from
these gatherings was a moral i'm
provement in the community at
large. Since the loss of the old edi-
flee and the building of the splendid
new church it seems that the good
old times experienced in the old
house of God have become obsolete
and have no part whatever in the
services of the new church, as now
conducted. Would it not be well for
the Christians of Glendale and COM
munity to go back to the old mode
of worship and install in our new
church the same kind of devotional
meetings as characterized the old
one? Would it not help in a large
measure to alleviate those things
which are so harmful to our young
people of this day. Two days are
none too many for Christians to as
semble themselves together and
study ways and means to combat the
influences which are being put forth
by the evil one during the other five
days of the week. Think about it.
Revival services will commence
in the NJ. E. Church, Glendale, on
Sunday evening, November 9Th, at
1880 p. m. The pastor, Rev. Conrad
Hamer desires the presence of the
entire membership during these
meetings.
Rev. Conrad Hamer, pastor Of the
NJ. e. Church here, is preaching ex-~
cellent sermons each Sunday. The
attendance is growing in numbers,
yet it is far short of what it should
be. 1t seems the people of this day
are losing that love for church go
ing which used to characterize our
fathers and mothers of old.
The missionary services last Sun
day morning were in charge of Sun
day school class, No. 4. Miss Grace
Harper, teacher. The program as
rendered, was fine, and reflects great
credit on all those who took part in
the exercises. Those who are not
attending these monthly meetings
are missing rare treats.
Halloween was celebrated by our
young people on Thursday evening
of last week. The streets were full
of the boys and girls dressed in the
most grotesque costumes, represent
ing most anything of a comical ma
ture. They had lots of fun in trying
to find out who each other was, and
in visiting many of the homes of the
town. Such innocent pleasure is to
be commended. Go to it young folks,
you will never be young but once.
Sunday. the 18th of November, |
will be a great day in Glendale.
People will assemble from all parts
of the county to help celebrate the
7th anniversary Of the Ellendale M.
E. Church.
We notice an item being publish
ed in several of the newspapers of
the State, stating that dogs on
which the tax had not been paid
were being killed in large numbers.
If the one who is engaged in de-
stroying a part Of the canine race,
will visit our town and vicinity, he
will find enough worthless ours rum
ming at large to keep him busy for
a week.
While quail and rabbits seem plen-
tiful, very few of our citizens gun
for them any more. Our young men
don't seem to have any love for the
sport. The farmers raise the game
and our city friends come down bag
it and carry it away. We are certain
Iy a hospitable people.
Don't forget that chicken pie made
in the old fashioned way will be
served at the supper to be given by
the Ladies Aid Society in the White
Hall, Friday evening, November 9Th. ;
Also remember that the bazaar will
contain many beautiful things suit
lble for Christmas present.
ankle agony" seems to be the
lew disease which is attacking the
of short skirts. If the la
lies abbreviate their dresses, much
more the next ailment to assail the
air sex will be "knee agony" When
will the women of the present day
earn to dress in a manner to meet
he cold blasts of autumn and win I
er and not expose their persons in
uch a way as to invite the presence i
f rheumatism, pneumonia and kim
red diseases?
If some genius would invent spec t
acles which would enable people to ]
ee plainly where darkness prevails, f
e would be able to do a large bus
less in this town. Most all the citi- 7
Ems need and would gladly buy iC
lasses of this kind.
The revival services which have d.
cen in progress at New Market NJ. S.
Church closed Sunday night. The
