Dr. A. E. Monger, pastor, read a number of letters and parts of letters from former Methodist pastors in Greeneastle. All expressed the belief that the church is making a long stride forward and many recalled incidents during their pastorate. One was by Dr- Houghland who recalled that he had 29 invitations for a Thankk.-'giving dinner while here and .-evrral held up their hands Monday night as being among those who had
extended those imitations.
In mentioning former pastors, Dr. I Monger expre.-sed the regrets of Dr. j and Mrs- Salem B Town at being ! unable to be present, because of illness. Dr. and Mrs- Town became members of the Greeneastle church in 1862 and have been loyal members since. Dr. Town also served as pastor of the local church for a number of
years.

minor details remain to be completed, it is believed the worst of the church debt situation has l>een solved. Details of this solution are given in another

Like all good historians, Dr. Longden urew largely upon source materials—reminiscences. The two parallel pictures of himself and President Oxnam in the Daily Banner three nights ago, he maintained, reminded him of medicine advertisements “before and after taking,” with himself the former. Yet he would remind his audience that while portraying a een tu - y hack, he had not been an eyewitness of it all, and did not yet deserve the cognomen "patriarch.” No cause, he said, has ever suceeedhI “without the might of the eternal yesterday." The might of yesterday for Indiana Methodism he thought lay largely In the strong- rugged -ouls who gave their lives to it. The itinerant preacher was chief of these Dr. Longden told of his father, one of the less remembered from among them. While not a Peter Cartwright, nor a Francis Asbury, he too rode swollen streams, he too braved snow, ice, sleet, and storm, and he too was evet giving himself that others might become Christians. Nor, thought Dr. IsJiiguen, should the preacher's wife ' be forgotten Like the “pioneer ! mother” her life was one of self-sac- [ rifite. Her husband receiving less I liian $30*1 u year, it was her task to i build a home as well as a parish, and | it was a home that under the eld discipi'iie was changed every two yeats.

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 24, (UP) The administration's highway bill was sent to the Indiana house today after having been approved by the senate,
28 to 6.
The bill was one of 13 passed in the upper house yesterday afternoon. Three other bills were advanced to engrossment. Sen. Chester A. Perkins, South Bend, only Democrat to oppose the administration measure, and John V. Sherwood, Mitchel, Republican caucus chairman, led a feeble fight against its passage. The hill provides for an entirely new highway commission of three full time members instead of the present four man part time body. It contains a clause enabling the highway department to purchase cement and other materials made in state penal institutions and provides for many reductions in personnel. The bill is intended to save the state $500,009 annually. “It is not a ripi>er bill, but a constructive piece of legislation," explained .Sen. Jacob Weiss, Indianapolis, onp of the authors.

DUBLIN. Jan. 24, (UP) The Irish Free State went to the polls today in a general election after a campaign marked by the must bitter animosities since the civil war ten years ago. Republican supporters of Kamon de Valeia and the party of William T. Cosgrave both predicted victory. A record poll was expected. The center party was expected to hold the balance of power between the Repub-
