1 1 Methodist Rev. E. W. Strecker, pastor.—ls you are on time at Sunday school you wDI be present promptly at 9:30. The summer attendance is good; morning worship hour 10:45, theme: “When Prayers Are Out of Palace”; Epworth League, 6:30, topic: “Lessons from the Poets,” leader —Mary Jane Brown; evening service, 7:30, theme: “The Shining Light.” The Sunday morning service was well attended last Sunday but all too few were at the evening meeting. Every member of the church should, not fail to attend at least one service each Sunday and both services if you can. This would pack the .church each Lord’s day and would lend great Inspiration to the cause. You cannot afford to make the Sabbath a day of pleasure; it has a higher purpose and lays great responsibility on you. “Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy.”
