‘THE MAJOR part of the church’s work is not done within its four walls,” said Harold Blake Walker, Evanston minister. He told that the real work of the church is accomplished when the spirit of the “Upper Room” moves out onto Main street, to touch the life of the world. Money does much, love does all. (Taken from the Chicago Sunday Tribune magazine.) ANGLER’S COVE has replaced a “noisy juke box,” and recently we enjoyed organ music from a “pump organ.” Patrons supply the music and some was done by Betty Ward . . . you know, wife of the noted Indianapolis attorney Seth Ward. Roger G. O’Malley,, who also did , his bit, is a very fine organist. He has a place on Ogden Island near ’ the Seth Wards. The music was enjoyed much , more than a juke box. Come sum- , mer time there will be more more Ogden Islanders, and, hopefully, more organ music by people in- . stead of from a box. We recall through former years that Mrs. Ward has composed mur , sic for services on Monument Place, Indianapolis, at Christmas ’ time. We also remember that some of her compositions have in past years been played at Thornburg’s drug and other places at holiday loud speaker.
