ELKHART COUNTY MAN HAS LARGE PEACH ORCHARD Each year at this time the people from northern Indiana flock to Michigan for the annual crop of peaches and it is the general concensus of opinion that the fruit is not a success in Indiana. W. W. Kercher of just south of Goshen is proving that peaches can be raised nearer home and is supplying many of the local grocers with choice fruit. Last Sunday the editor took a trip into Michigan and viewed several of the orchards and then on Labor day took a trip through the Kercher orchards and for a good orchard the Kercher place is way ahead of anything seen in Michigan. Trees on the farm near Goshen are loaded to capacity and the trees show an excellent color for health. At the present time the South Haven is the peach being marketed but later Elbertas and Lemon Free will claim the attention of the buyers. Mr. Kercher has 1800 trees in his orchard and thinned the fruit during the season in order that when the crop became ripe a larger size would be obtained and now the orchard is well worth visiting. Visitors are welcome and anyone desiring to see a real peach orchard is advised to take a trip to Goshen in the near future.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE SERVICES "SUBSTANCE” is the subject at the Lesson-Sermon in ail Churches of Christ, Scientist, oo Sunday, September 9. Among the citations which com* prise the Lesson-Sermon is the following from the Bible: “Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts" (Isa. 55:7-9). The Lesson-Sermon also includes the following passages from the Christian Science textbook, “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures,” by Mary Baker Eddy: “God’s thoughts are perfect and eternal, are substance and Life. Material and temporal thoughts are human, involving error, and since God, Spirit, is the only cause, they lack a divine cause" (p. 286).
