DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 0, 1926,

CALVARY CHURCH IS REOEDICATEC ; •i Large Audiences At Serv- ' ’ ices; Large Sum Pledged To Building Fund Iho rodedtcatlon of the Calvary Evangelical church east of Decatur, last Sunday proved a groat day for the church. Large audiences were present both at the morning and afternoon services. The downpour of rain during the noon hour prevented many others from coming to the service in the afternoon. Bishop M.T. Maze, of Harrisburg, Pa., preached two powerful sermons, his theme In the morning being “The Joy of Sacrifice,’’ based on Mark 14:8, and in the afternoon the theme was, ‘God’s Provision for the Supply of All Our Need,” based on Phlllppians 4:19. These wonderful messages wjere greatly appreciated by the attentive audiences. The men's quartette and the junior choir rendered a number of special selections which were very highly appreciated. At the noon hour, the ladies of the church provided, in the basement, a feast of good things to eat, which were supplimenfed by the baskets brought by visiting friends. There seemed to be no end of the tempting dainties. The amount of cash and pledges secured previous to Sunday was i $1,635. Os this, the members of the church, during the past year, had pledged $770, the Sunday school had given sll4 and the Ladies' Aid. S3OO. I The trustee board also had a fund of $451. On Sunday morning. SI,OOO was asked for in order to pay all outstanding bills and to complete the ! work. During the day, approximate■'ly $1,200 in cash and good pledges ’ wcie given: one-third of the pledges ' to be paid, if possible, by July 1, one--1 third one year later, and one-third in two years from July 1. A few pledges • .will still be secured, it is believed, • I which will enable the building com- • mittee, composed of William Miller, ! Otis Shifferly, James Darr, Charles ' C. Miller and Fred Harmon, to com- | plete the entire building, including . the erection of a belfry and bell, the 1 placing of a ceiling in the basement, a and other details, necessary to put f the building in the best of condition. | The Calvary congregation, with a membership of only 45. deserves . 1 great credit for this project which i has nearly trebled the value of the | property. They greatly appreciate .'the help’given by the community and I especially the financial help which the members of the Evangelical | church at Decatur, and other friends of the community and elsewhere, gave on Sunday. The total cost of all improvements will exceed $2,700. A reasonable estimate of the labor which will be nonated until the work is completed, I would be close to SI,OOO, making the 'entire improvement {post $3,700, at

Besides giving S3OO in cash and sub- i scribing SIOO more, the Ladles* Aid I has papered and carpeted the church < at an expense of $l6O. They have t but 18 members in the Aid. Under 1 the auspices of the Aid, the Young | Peoples' Missionary Circle of the 1 Decatur Evangelical church will give a play ut the Calvary church on i Friday evening of this week, at 8:00 1 o'clock standard time. The play? i which Is entitled “Janey.” lias u grlp-L Ding power which holds the audience with wrapt attmtion throughout and conveys a powerful lesson in Christian Ihlng. The play lias been given twice in the Decatur church, and at Linn Grove. Chattanooge, Mt. Carmel, and recently at Van Wert. The entire community is invited to enjoy the evening’s entertainment.. A silver offering will be taken. Calvary Evangelical church is pro paring to serve her community in things religious as never before.

Why do I have to have these ugly pimples, blotches ami blackheads? “If I could only find something that would clear up my skin and give me back my soft, rosjAomplexion, I know I would be the happiest girl in the world!

You can build red-blood-cells so fast that the impurities that cause breaking out on the skin hardly get into the system before the pure blood annihilates them — bills them right out —stops them trom breaking out through the skin. And then this rich, red. pure blood feeds and nourishes the tissues of the skin and keeps it looking healthy. That’s all there is to it. Healthy, vigorous./ _ _ —, \ red blood such as S. S.

with material progress and the rural communities have us great a religious obligation as do the cities. Bishop Mazo stressed the Importance of maintaining the rural churches if the nation is to be kept safe for democracy aud pointed out the tact that any communty's main asset is her boys and girls. He heartily complimenied the Calvary church upon her vision and faith in modernizing her church plant and in undertaking the newer religious tasks of the day. There urea fine group of boys and girls in the community and the church purposes to give them the best moral and religious training in
