HUNDREDS ATTEND ALLDAY MEETING

Of the Christian Churches at Wilkinson Sunday School, Missionary Talks and Basket

Dinner All Enjoyed.

The all-day meeting at Wilkinson Sunday was attended by about 1,000 people. This was the best meeting since the four Christian churches of Wilkinson, Nameless Creek, Warrington and Shirley have been meeting each year, and it is' looked forward to with much joy by those who have attended.

The Bible school was not so well attended as the church seryices in the afternoon. They were planning to

have

a large school, but on ac­

count of bad weather many did not attend. At the morning church service, F. M. Rains, secretary of the Foreign Christian Missionary Society, of Cincinnati, was the speaker, and he told of the condition of the foreign country that he visited while he was on a tour, visiting the different mission points of. the Disciples of Christ.

Dinner was then served on the grounds and a large number were there with well filled baskets and the dinner was enjoyed by all. In the afternoon Mr. Rains spoke on the growth and conditions of the foreign countries since he visited them eleven years ago and one year ago. Mr. Rains is a very fine speaker and kept his audience interested. Mr. Rains has been in the foreign missionary work for almost forty-five years and he has dedicated more churches than any other man in the Brotherhood.

These churches which met Sunday have supported a native helper for some time and an offering was taken up for this work. The brethren at Wilkinson are raiping money to build a new church and it is believed they will do it from what is heard. All the churches are in a prosperous condition. A large delegation from Shirley was preseu:.

The next large gathering in this part will be the annual anniversary meeting, at Nameless Creek, held in September. The speaker will be Robert Hopkins, of Lexington, Ky. He is one of the best speakers in the Brotherhood.

Plans are on foot to organize the four churches in the southern part of the county, namely, Greenfield, Charlottesville, Shiloh and Sugar Creek, into a yearly meeting. It is a good thing for the churches f.o come together and much good can

IT HAPPENED IN GREENFIELD

And is Happening to Greenfield People Every Week.

The case told below is not an un common thing. The same occurs frequently and will continue to happen as long as folks have kidneys and overtax the kidneys.

D. E. Jack3on, 211 E. Osage St., Greenfield, Ind., says: "I was in bad shape three years ago when I began the use of Doan-s Kidney Pills, procured from Quigley's Drug Store. I suffered from a severe attack of kidney complaint, and my back was so lame th€t it was almost impossible for me to get about. I could hardly get up after sitting for a while, and stooping or lifting was a difficult operation. I had trouble from kidney secretions, the passages being too frequent, both day and night. In some way Doan's Kidney Pills were brought to my notice and I began their use. The contents of two boxes entirely relieved the lameness in my back and corrected the trouble from my kidneys. I publicly recommended Doan's Kidney Pills at that time, and as I have had no serious attacks of kidney complaint since then, I am glad to give them my re-endorsement."

PPV

Fair Sized Crowd Heard Rev. Leslie J. Naftzger at the Christian Church Sunday Night.

The first union church service of the summer months was held at the Christian church Sunday evening and notwithstanding the rain that begun to fall just at church time, there was a very fair sized audience.

Rev. Leslie Naftzger, pastor of the Bradley M. E. church, conducted this service, and preached the sermon, the Christian church choir furnishing special music.

Union church services during the months of July and August have become a fixed custom in this city, and they show great advancement over a few years ago, when it was very unusual for a minister of one denomination to preach in the pulpit of another denomination.

The union services concentrate the work and interests of all the churches while many of the members of the various churches are away on their vacations. The Christian, Presbyterian, Methodist Protestant and Methodist Episcopal churches are engaging in the union services.

George L. Higbie, MantQ*, Mich., used Foley Kidney Pills for kidney and bladder trouble. He says: "I find for my case no other medicine equals Foley Kidney Pills for beneficial effect." They are a safe and reliable medicine for kidney trouble and rheumatism. Contain no harmful drugs. M. C. Quigley.

The ladies of the W. G. W. C. most delightfully entertained the members of their families with a patriotic program July 3d, at the home of Miss Jennie Jessup. On account of the inclement weather it was decided to give the program in the barn, which was most appropriately arranged for the occasion. It was lighted with Japanese lanterns and candles. First on the program was singing by a chorus of young ladies. Two scenes, representing colonial life, were then presented. The characters were father, mother, daughter, little boy, girl and grandmother. The room was typical of colonial times, with spinning wheel, flax wheel, winding blades and other old time things around the room. The first scene opened with the mother and her daughter preparing supper before the old open fire place, and grandmother sitting in the corner carding wool. Soon the father came in and they surround the home-made table, covered with home-spun cloth and partook of their meal from old pewter dishes. The second scene represented an old-time courtship, in which the young lady received her lover on Sunday evening. While the scenes were being acted, the story was read. During the social hour that followed, refreshments of ice cream and angel food cake were served.

^he members of the Nameless Creek C. W. B. M. met with Mrs. Anna Hittle at their regular monthly meeting Wednesday afternoon of last week. Mexican conditions, especially mission work, was considered. Discussions on the subject were given by Mrs. Nancy Walker, and Mrs. Anna Haney. Refreshments of cream, cake and punch were served. Thirteen members were present, with Miss Eva Walker, Mrs. Anna Williams and children, Miss Ethel Harvey, of Greenfield, and Mrs. Reece, of Pratt, Kas., as guests. w!1#fr*

SCHOLARLY ADDRESS BY PROF. RUSSELL.

Spoke on "Immortality" at Friends Church Sunday Evening, and His Talk Was Appreciated.

"If a man die shall he live again?' This was Prof. Elbert Russell's opening sentence. He treated the question from the standpoint of a Common humanity, not trying to prove it by the Bible or by the arguments of the philosopher. Mankind in all ages and countries has believed in a future existence of some kind.

early Hebrew and

Greek lookca upon it as a shadow. Later it we regarded as a continuation of the happiness of this life, without its griefs. The Indian had buried with him his pony, dog and other necessaries for the "happy hunting grounds." The effect of evolution in the last twenty years has been to evolve the human soul into an eternity of happiness, where the material is dropped and the spiritual, untrammeled, goes on in an eternal growth.

Prof. Russell used all the arguments of science to prove that we are immortal. He closed with the only example of history to prove the resurrection Jesus Christ. It was a scientific and masterly address, such aa his audience never before heard.

A. M. Nason, farming near Canaan, Me., was badly crippled with sciatic rheumatism due, he says, to uric acid in his. blood. "Foley Kidney Pills entirely cured me and also removed numerous black specks that were continually before my eyes." Foley Kidney Pills are a uric acid solvent and are effective for the various forms of rheumatism. M. C. Quigley.

700 Feet of Trenton Rock. The drill at the deep oil well being put down in the Doddridge neighborhood reached the depth of 2,300 feet last Saturday, having gone through over 700 feet of Trenton rock. Mr. Brandt expects to find the oil sand within the next hundred feet. The work progresses slowly at this depth. Cambridge City Tribune.

The following persons made up a picnic party Sunday and visited the Mounds at Anderson: Mrl and Mrs. E. V. Toms, son, Lowell Mr. and Mrs. Earl Binford, Mr. and Mrs. H. E. Leecfi, Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Steele and son, Erwin Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Gordon and Frank Craft and family, of Charlottesville.

Twin Babies One Dies. Twin girl babies were born to Mr, and Mrs. Grover Wickliff, of Blue River township, Sunday. One child died in a short time.

Made Another Record. Dr. Carl McGaughey made a record last week by killing six squirrels at five shots. Today he made another record by killing two squirrels with eight shots. That is getting down where folks have no doubt about the story.
