TOWN AND CITY BET MIXED MAIL. FREIGHT, AND EXPRESS OF THE TWO PLACER NISSENT •r Syracuse, New York, and cur own Syracuse, Indiana, are a scource of considerable trouble to each other through the going astray of mail matter, express packages, and freight. At several times freight and exprss shipped to the Journal office from Chicago, has mysteriously disappeared only to turn up after many days from the New York city. Several days ago we received a letter which after opening proved to be for the Syracuse, New York, Journal. A 'more peculiar coincidence is the case of Mrs. Abbie Buchholz, who recently had a letter from her sister in Ohio. The letter had been wrongly sent to Syracuse, New York, and had been delivered to a Mrs. Abbie Buchholz there, who after finding that the letter was net her’? forwarded it to the person it was intended for here. So if your freight, mail or express does not arrive when it should, the chances are that it is on its way to the eastern city. WILL MAKeIxTENDED TRIP PLAN TO GO TO CALIFORNIA IN AUTOMOBILES S. C. Lepper and. A. L. Miller of Syracuse, and L M. Neher of Milford are planning for a long automobile trip in June of 1915.

It is expected that the party will be increased to six cars by the timt the start is made. Old Time Revival It is said by many nowadays, that it is impossible to have an old time revival. They say people are progressing and times are changing, which is true, but thanks be tc God. He never changes; His promises are yea and amen unto ail them that believe. It requires the same Holiness as in,days gone by. People can change their way of worship, but cannot change the word of God Everyone wfip fie weighed in the balance, with4he word in the judg ment. For Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my word shall not pass away. Mat 24:35. It was my privelege, to enter into an old time revival at Mt. Tabor, 7 miles southeast of Nappanee Jan. 4, continued until Feb. 10. The power of God fell on the people as at pentecost The saints were made to rejoice in his love and 40 souls were born into the Kingdom; 20 heads of families, one 75 years old. A few days after the revival, a donation was brought to the parsonage, amounting to about $65. Friday Feb. 20, 33 people came to the home in three sleds, brought with them many good things to eat for dinner. Our lips cannot express the heart felt thanks, to them for the offering and many other kind acts. Also our hearts are lifted to God in thankfulness for an old time revival. A. J. Esbelraan, Pastor.
