of their five years of untiring
service rendered to the Glendale

In the words of George Grim, the
Kinks say They Like 1t Here"
Five years ago this month, Rev.
and Mrs. A. l.. Kirk came to
Minnesota. One month later a
little girl. Wilma, was born. They
had come to pastor what was
known as Beacon Light SDA
church. There was no church
building. the small group was
meeting in rented quarters with
an annual income of 500; and a
building fund of $500.
Today, after five years under
the leadership of Pastor Kirk,
there is a new church building
valued at more than 1876 900.
There is no mortgage and no out
standing debts. The church also
has new name, it is the Glendale
Seventh Day Adventist church,
located on three beautiful corner
lots at Glenwood and Fremont
Ave. North. Minneapolis.
In 1850, the income was $22,-
1865 with an addition of 26 new
members. In 1851 we are looking
forward to finishing the building.
There is need of little more
than $4,000 to dedicate the new
building.

his sermon last Sunday morning
Rev. c. NJ. Sexton, dwelt at
length upon the Importance of
the layman in the success of the
church's forward progress. He
spoke of the grim determination
of men who were laymen. that ii
was accomplished. In the early
days the layman had no voice in
the forming the policies of the
church and it was only when the
Reformers who were laymen,
voiced protest of that condition

GOOD HEALTH.
PLENTY REST
HALTS T.B.

Tuberculosis, striking oftenest
during the prime Of between
ages is and 34--is best prevented
by excellent health and good re-
,sistance, states @ bulletin from
3 Minnesota State Medical as
citation. Because TB is contag-
BUS, 1t Is best to stay away from
fiiown cases Of the disease. It is
kpread by germs carried in the
bputum (coughed-up discharge)
7of a person with active TB.
Here are reminders for forming
good health habits:
1. Get plenty or rest and sleep.
the proper amount of sleep should
be 10 or IL hours for most chill
dren, eight to 10 for adults. II
you feel extra tired, get extra
sleep and rest to build resistance.
A daily nap is often helpful.
2. Be sure you get a balanced
diet. including something from
each Of the basic seven foods
daily; milk and milk foods; but
ter; protein dishes; green and
yellow vegetables; potatoes and
other vegetables and fruits; the
vitamin c foods; whole-grain
foods.
3. Drink plenty Of water,
4. Cleanliness in daily life is
essential. Wash your hands often;
do not use common drinking cups.
Keep your surroundings clean.
5. Get plenty Of fresh air. Inn
properly ventilated homes,
schools and offices help give TB
q chance TO infect.
Sunshine is important to good
health. Sunlight makes you feel
fit--it is a great tonic, helping TO
kill many germs, including tuber-
culosis bacillus.
z. Outdoor exercise should be a
daily habit. II keeps the muscles
In good tone and helps the blood
TO circulate rapidly. Exercise
should not, however. be overdone.
8. When you see your doctor for
your regular check-up, be sure to
get a chest N-ray. A tuberculin
test is also a safe, accurate way
Of discovering whether the body
contains TB germs.

Garland To Carry Mail

The motorship Garland will return to the westward mail run on Jan. 10, Heinie Berger ! Distributing Company an- nounced recently.
 The Garland will relieve the Pomare, currently attempting to complete a run from Se- ward via Kodiak to the vest ward. The Pomare has ex- perienced considerable diff culty in missing the rocks and reefs along its run.
 On the arrival here Christ
 mas night, the vessel went a. ground twice in St. Paul's
 harbor in an effort to get
 turned around and dock.
 Earlier the Coast Guard Cutter Sedge dragged it from the beach in Ouzinkie narrows. The Garland, a 450 ton ves- sel, was on the westward run until June of this year when the contract passed to the owners of the Pomare. That contract has now been given up and the last run of the Po- mare was under a negotiated contract.
 The Garland will carry mail to the westward until 1854, under terms of the new con- taact negotiated, by the Ber- ger Distributing Company.
 The Garland will carry mail freight and passengers and will operate on a monthly schedule.
