very enjoyable musical afternoon at

The past week in Douglas has been
slightly stormy with rains the fore

rain the latter part There has been

people scurrying for their coats and
extra blankets for the bed. There has

REV. SIMONSON
WILL NOT LEAVE
CHURCH

Following period of many weeks
during which it has been reported
that Rev. E, w. Simonson was tc
leave his position as rector of ST
Stephens Episcopal church, the pio-
neer Douglas churchman faced almost
his entire congregation at great
church meeting at the Parish house
last evening and told them tilat he
will not leave his people and ST
Stephens.
Rev. Simonson, whose rectorsnip in
Douglas has now extended over %
years, received a call about q month
ago to N}come the general secretary
of religious education for large
unit OF the Episcopal church. The
territory comprising the field extends
from Colorado to the Mississippi and
from Kansas City and St. Louis to
the gulf Tt is Gre OF the most
outstanding positions within the offer
of the church. When Douglas people
learned that Mr.. Simonson had been
chosen to this position they reared
that it would lead to the breaking
of the tie which has so long bound
the rector of st. Stephens and his
family to the fellowship and CO.
operative enterprises OF this city.
Last evening, at a meeting of his
congregation, Mr.. Simonson an
nounced that he had declined the
offer and would remain here. This
announcement was received with an
outburst of applause; and Douglas
as community will share in the
pleasure which his decision has given
those to whom he ministers.
A 20 odd year pastorate, particular
ly beneath the success and the in
fluence of the Episcopal church in
this city, is something beautiful in
itself. 1t is compliment to every
one, old and young, who are thus
associated in such mutual enterprise.
1t is register of the enduring thinos
of the community In Douglas it
marks the transition from ''the be-
ginning" to the advanced civic estab-
lishment of today. The Dispatch is
glad that such associations as those
which have characterized these long
fruitful years are not now to be
broken, and wishes for the rector
and members of this church further
long years of happiness and success.
st. Stephens church, with it's rec
tory, its lawns and it's Parish house,
form a pretty center in the town.
They are, together monument to
the harmony, the Industry and the
social consciousness of the congrega-

these many years. The spiritual tie
symbolized by these lis the main factor
contributing towards Mr.. Simonsons
