Jasper County Democrat, Volume 2, Number 12, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 1 July 1899 — State S. S. Convention. [ARTICLE]

State S. S. Convention.

The fifth annual State Sunday school convention held in Columbus, Ind., was one of the largest and best conventions ever held in the state. Every order of the program was carried out to perfection. The Bartholomew county Sabbath school parade was a glorious sight to behold. All mass meetings, prayer and praise meetings were filled with the spirit of God and those who attended these meetings felt it was well to be there. There was a debt of S6OO hanging over the state, which was cleared by collection, and all joined by singing “Praise God From Whom All Blessings Flow.” We could not find space in our county papers to speak of all the good things that was in store for us. The meeting was filled with the spirit of God from beginning to end, and all went home feeling more determined to raise our banner higher and try to make every township in our county and every county in our state a banner, and our state, a banner state. A Delegate. I have private funds to loan on real estate at low rates for any length of time. Funds are always on hands and there is no delay—no examination of land, no sending papers east—absolutely no red tape. Why do you wait on insurance companies for 6 months for your money? I also loan money for short times at current bank rates. Funds always on hand'
