CHURCH PULPITS FILLED SUNDAY BY OUTSIDERS

Local Pastors Turned Over Their Pulpits to Representatives of the Anti-Saloon League. The Anti J Saloon League had the right of way in the churches Sunday, as all the pulpits were filled by representatives of this cause. The state Anti-Saloon League has county field days by which all the important churches of a county give up their services that Sunday to the temperance cause. Hon. R. 6. Minton, attorney, of Indianapolis, was at the Methodist church. Rev. G. W. Titus was at the Chritsian church: Rev. F. P. Leckliter was at the Presbyterian chureh, and Rev. E. A. Miles at the Baptist church. These speakers are all from Indianapolis. The union services at the court house was largely attended and Rev. G. W. Titus, one of the state field secretaries of the Anti-Saloon gave a very fine and inspiring address. Rev. Titus was pastor of the Christian church for over a year and his many friends in Rensselaer were glad to hear him again. The AntiSaloon League is working for county prohibition in the 92 counties of the state and are planning to make, the state dry.
