ance Was Greatest In History
OF The Church.

The fifteenth anniversary of the
dedication of the First Methodist
Protestant Church of Milford, was
celebrated with special services last
Sunday. At a. m. there was a
large attendance at the Sunday NOR
ming class, when many of the older
members as well as those who are
younger were present and testified
concerning the great ferVor of the
meetings when the church was
started, and they were happy to
know that this church has continued
to worship God in manner which
shows deep spirituality.
At 10 a. m. the largest number of
persons in the history of the church
attended the Sunday school. There
were 800 present in the school at
that time.
At II a. M, Rev. J. L. Nichols, of
Crisfield, Md, who preached the first
sermon in a tent, seventeen years
ago to eight people, preached the
sermon. The congregation filed the
large auditorium and overfowed in
to the Sunday school room. The
sermon was a strong one and was
well received by the large congre-
cation.
At D. m. an interdenominational
mass meeting was held, when Rev.
Frank Herson, pastor of the Avenue
M. e. Church, and Rev. Samuel C.
Welsh, pastor of the First Baptist
were present and assisted in
the services. Rev. H L. Bunstein,
pastor of the Presbyterian Church,
sent word of his inability to be pres
ent. Rev. DR.. E. C. Makosky, presi-
dent of the Maryland Annual Con-
ference of the Methodist Protestant
preached the sermon. This
was DIR. Makosky's annual visit, and
his sermon was a strong and help
full one, and was enjoyed by a con-
gregation which filled the auditorium
with some in the Sunday school
room.
DR.. Makosky is a forceful preacher
and is very popular among the
churches of his conference. He was
the pastor of the First Methodist
Protestant Church, Newark, N. J.,
for fourteen years just before he was
elected president of his conference.
At GAS p. m. three Christian En-

ESPRE DE CORPS

A wonderful tribute from one branch of Uncle Sam's service to another:
 Much credit and honor is due to the Signal Corps for the no small part they play in the everyday ser vice of communication between iso- lated points in the interior of Alas ka and civilization.
 In many places their stations are the sole means of law and justice and haven of rest and comfort to the weary traveller or prospector and in many respects compare fa- vorably with their more famous cou- sin of the Royal Northwest Mounted Police
 What vast, beautiful, but deso- late land, our fair Alaska would be, when our long winter spreads it's hoary mantle over the great Interior, were it not for these same Signal Corps men who, no matter whether it sleets or the snow falls 1O-foot deep, or the thermometer falls to 70 below zero, carry on just as though, it were, an every day occurrence Captain Ralph R. Guthrie, s. c. Off, ficer in Charge of this Corps of men, can we'll be proud of their great re- cord of wonderful achievements, as they are loyal and4devoted to him.

The Signal Corps is contemplating raising funds for the purchase of a beautiful loving cup to be known as the Signal Corps Trophy" for pre- sentation to the winner of the ann ual dog derby being held at Fair banks under auspices of the Fair banks Kennel Club. The silver loving cup will become the permanent pos session of the first successful person to win three races. The name of the winner will be engraved each season upon the cup and without a doubt this cup will become more famous than the famous Borden Cup of Nome.

needy farmers with seed grain and
feed was recommended for passage
by the senate committee on state
affairs today.
The bill, introduced by Senators w.
f. Martin, Morton county, and A. A.
Peck, Mclean county, is intended to
assist farmers whose crops have been
damaged or destroyed by drouth and
hail.
The amount of seed acreage is
limited to 200 acres, and the bill was
amended to restrict the amount of
feed to each farmer to $500. The
bill carries an emergency clause.
The committee also considered a
bill completely rewriting the state
pharmacy regulations, but deferred
action until number of amendments

Quint Saturday Night

Bismarck cagers will travel east
ward this weekend to meet two OF
the strongest teams on their seasons
schedule and to fight for victories
from them. Valley City, Mandan's
nemesis, will be played tomorrow
night and jamestown will be played
Saturday.
BY defeating Mandan p to y, the
Hi-lners showed that they are a cage
aggregation of real power this year
and an aggregation which should go
far in the state tournament.
The old familiar jinx still hovers
over the Valley City Bismarck game
but local cagers believe that il they
fight hard enough they may be able
to keep the score close. II the De
mons do lose to the Hi-lincrs, they
will have suffered no disgrace, for
the Barnes county school has team
which is one Of the best in the state
The Demons will have the same
disadvantage as Mandan to contend
against in this game--the larger size
Of the opponents. The Hi-liners are
a husky outfit and there are severa
men in the group who top the six-foo
mark, according to reports. Agains
such a team, hard work every secont
of the time will be required.
