ANNUAL SESSION Election of Officers Held at the German Reformed Church Yesterday CHURCH PROSPERS And is in Best Financial Condition It Has Ever Enjoyed The annual business session of the German. Reformed church was held yesterday at which time officers were elected for the ensuing year and are as follows: M Kirsch, elder; H. Sellemeyer, deacon; Fred Mutchler, trustee; Peter Kirsch, treasurer. Reports from the different committees were read, the most interesting of which was the treasurer's report, which shows that the church is is excellent financial condition, all debts having been paid and a neat sum still in tne hands of the treasurer. A very important feature of the meeting was the decision to the effect that beginning at the present time a building fund will be created which will be used either to remodel the church or build a new one. In consequence of either the German Reformed church will be modern In every respect. The congregation ocnsists of 159 confirmed members, which is an increase of twelve over the preceding year, which is indeed a creditable advancement. Rev. L. A. Hessert, the valuable minister, has handled the reins of the church in an efficient manner and every department thereof has prospered and in fact the religious organization is among the most flourishing in our city. - — - - ■ When you think of Indigestion think of Kodol, foi* Jit is without doubt the only preparation that completely digests all classes of food.
