TO CLOSE SUNDAY Classis of Reformed Congregations Holding Excellent Sessions at Magley ORDINATION SERVICE Will be Held Sunday Morning—Three Adams County Men to Enter Ministry The Zion classis, composed of the Reformed congregations of Fort Wayne, the Salem and St. John s, Huntington, Decatur, Magley, Vera Cruz, Garrett and Auburn, is having a most interesting meeting at the Magley Reformed church. The convention opened on Wednesday evening, with the Sunday school department in charge. The Sunday school program continued until the close of the Thursday afternoon session. Thursday evening an address by the Rev. W. C. Beckman, retiring president, was excellent, and the session elected the following officers for the year: President, Rev. C. H. Scherry, Vera Cruz; vice president. Rev. F. W. Knatz, of Fort Wayne; stated clerk, Rev. F. W. Hoernemann, Berne; corresponding secretary, Rev. R. B. Meckstroh, Huntington; treasurer, M. Kirsch, Decatur. Mr.- Kirsch has been the treasurer twenty years or more. Friday’s sessions were devoted to the parochial reports, which were very optimistic, and showed a wonderful growth in all the churches for the past year. Friday evening Rev. R. B. Meckstroh of Huntington addressed the classis, his subject being “Stewardship.” The Saturday morning session was devoted to the routine business of the classis. The Sunday morning service will probably be the most interesting of the gathering, it being the occasion of the ordination service, when three young men —all of them Adams county boys and members of the Magley church, where the classis is being held—will be ordained as ministers of the Reformed church. The service will be held at 10 o’clock, and Rev. F. W. Knatz. of Fort Wayne will preach the sermon, though other ministers of the classis will have a part in the service. The young monRev. John Conrad. Rev. Charles Reppert and Rev. Elmer ■’ Jaberg—are graduates of the seminary department of the Reformed Mission house at Franklin, Wis. It is quite probable that the Sunday service will be very largely attended. “The Young People in the Church” will be the subject of an address on Sunday evening by the Rev. R. R. Elliker.
