Subject for 1 study, “Christian Speech and Conduct.” A. L. Dupler, supt. Morning Worship, 10:30. Theme ■ of sermon, “King Agrippa’s Address ’ to Paul.” Rally Day will be observed at the Presbyterian church Sunday morning during the Sunday school 1 hour. Rev. Salmon w’ill give the charge to the teachers and officers, with a response from a representa- ’ five of each class. A certificate of ’ recognition will be given to the : class or clashes having the largest percentage of their class roll present on this occastion. ' The apostle Paul, who was now a ; prisoner in the hands of the Roman Empire, had appeared before Felix and Festus and had established his innocence of the charges preferred against him. Now he is appearing before King Agrippa. Agrippa is so gripped by the account of Paul’s conversion and the power of Christ to cleanse and save that he is com- , pelled to cry out, “Almost thoupersuadest me to be a Christian.” : Almost a Christian, almost persuaded. How many there are today who are standing in this same position before Christ Jesus. These have heard His gracious call, they . know Him to be the Son of God, the Saviour of mankind and yet they refuse to take the last step with Him—that of surrender. Why is this? Is it not because so many of of us are so wrapped up in the . things of this world, seeking for pleasure, striving to gain wealth, trying to attain unto a place of ’ trust and honor? Have we not, many of us, closed our hearts to His gracious invitation and command, . “Seek ye first the Kingdom of God ( and His righteousness, and all these . things shall be added unto you.” . Shall we not be altogether persuaded . and take Hin at His Word? If you have no other church home we extend to you a most cor- ■ dial invitation to worship with us.

Frank Trice, age 71, one of North Liberty’s oldest merchants in point of service, were held from the Methochurch this afternoon. Rev. Harold । F. Pearson, the pastor, reading the I last rites. Burial was in the North ' Liberty cemetery. It was not generally known by Mr. 1 ' Price’s friends that he was in ill j . health until recently when he was I forced to relinquish his duties at the | Price and Houser hardware store. , where he was part owner with Har- । vey Houser. The end came Monday evening at eight o’clock in his home, death being due to Sarcoma. | Mr. Price entered business in North Liberty 4 4 years ago, after spending some time as a school I teacher. He has been very prominent in all civic, political and I church affairs. For many years he I was Democratic precinct chairman, president of the Trustees of the North Liberty Methodist church, | and was a prominent official in the I North Liberty State bank. He has ; always stood for the very best in- । terests of the community and used , his influence for good in all matters ; of progress. He was the teacher of ' the Men's Bible class at the Metho- , dist church for many years. Jonathan Franklin Price was born in Liberty township, January 18, 186 6. He was the sixth in a I family of ten children, his parents I being Alexander H. and Lydia Cordray Price who were early settlers and long time residents of the community. He obtained such educa- ' tion as the rural schools of that time afforded and after taking a short ; preparatory course at Valparaiso I University, spent seven years as a teacher in the public schools of the community. On December 26, 1888, he was united in marriage with Miss Ida M. Steele. To this union, one son, Earl, was born. A few years later his wife passed away. । In 1893, he entered the mercantile । business in North Liberty, which he 1 has continued until the time of his | death. For five years he was in : South Bend where his firm operated : a branch store, but in 1911 he re- ' turned to North Lberty where he has since resided. On March 30, 1912, he was married to Miss Maude E. Steele, from ' which marriage two daughters, Jane ' and Mary, were born. Surviving him are his wife, two daughters, Jane and Mary; one son, Earl; a daughter-in-law, Mrs. Earl Price; three grandchildren, Patricia, Don and John Price, of Buffalo, N.

Traffic Actuated Signal on Road 6 at Highland Bids will be opened Tuesday, Oct. 19. by the State Highway Commission for the Installation of traffic j 1 actuated signals at the interaction of roads 6 and 41 in Highland and I at the intersection of roads 30 and ; • 4 1 and Schererville. Both intersections carry extremely I heavy traffic is the three routes are ! main arteries in and out of Chicago । from the south and east. Use of the traffic-controlled signals at these intersections is expected to provide greater safety in the move- > ment of motor vehicles on the three' highways. Operations of the traffic lights will be governed by the movement: ( of traffic over control “pads” locat- j ed approximately 200 feet back from ‘ the intersection. Passage of ave--1 hide over one of the pads on a highI way where traffic is halted by a red ' light, operates an electric mechanism that within a few seconds gives i the vehicle a green light for cross- ’ ing the intersection. The installation of the traffic actuated signal at the intersection ।of roads 6 and 41 will replace the present marking which requires all ; traffic approaching the intersection to come to a full stop before enter- ' ing the intersection.

Main Street Gossip The World Serius is now a Has been ana most of the post mortem business has been taken care of, except one item and we have the answer for it. Grandpappy Robinson and Sam Baker have never been able to figure out why the Cubs lost out after their mid-summer lead of several games. They asked this Mainstreeter how come and we gave 'em our version of the whole matter, but they weren’t satisfied, so we had to get the low down for them. Last week, while the Chicago serius was on between the Norths and the Souths, we sent our scout over to get the facts of the case. Yes sir, we sent Earl William Leslie over, cause he rides on a Billy Oh pass, and did he get the low- down! He says it's all clear now why the little bears lost out. He saw them play Monday and the brand of baseball they put up was so low down it was putrid. They looked like a third rate high school team, says Hi, and he knows his baseball. Claude Cannonball Stull saved enough money on his Fire Prevention Week cigarless economy to buy a new Pontiac this week. Gee, | wished we could save on cigars like that boy can. The amiable proprietress of the Studio Dress Shop, corner Madison i and State. Walkerton, handed the ■ Streeter this bit of verse written by Francis J. Gable. editor of Good Business, which we are glad to j include in the column: IN THE FALL The heat of summer’s over. In the fall. And the blossoms deck the clover.

In the fall; And the birds begin their sighing For their annual southward flying In the fall. 1 The stars shine always brighter In the fall, And the air is fresh and lighter In the fail; Though to some It seems the saddest Yet to me the earth is gladdest In the fall. This calls to mind other poems dealing with the fall, like ' When the frost is on the pumpkin, and the fodder's in the shock,” by our own James Whitcomb Rilay whose birthday occurs this month, and that other one, * Old October's pert nye gone.” There's something about the fall that does: get into one’s blood and make him glad he's alive. But speaking of the fall and October, one of the saddest deaths to come to our attention lately was that of Jimmy Cover in South Bend. Jimmy was one of the sweetest singers we knew, and his happy-go-lucky disposition made him a “hail fellow well met” with everyone. Jimmy literally sang himself into the hearts of his listeners, and when he sang i “Brown October Ale,” he was irresistible. His work with the Scottish Rite choir and his solo engagements made him very popular in local musical circles. But for some । reason Jimmy who was so generous ! with his voice, was never able, per- ! haps never cared to, get into the ( pay end of music. It’s a real shame 1 1 his sweet voice has been silenced. I Long, after he has gone, when Octo- | ber rolls around, men and women of -) northern Indiana will recall with 1 pleasure, mixed with sadness, Jim- > my Cover and his “Brown October Ale.” May his soul rest in peace. . Hoffman Bros., North Liberty’s r oldest store, is celebrating its 50th . anniversary' this week. While this f Streeter can't go all the way back l [ to the beginnigs, we do recall the i days of the old soda fountain and i fresh roasted peanuts. As a kid we used to look anxiously in the columns of the News for the announcement of the annual opening of the । fountain in the spring. The an- । nouncement was accompanied with a ? ( coupon which entitled the holder to -a free soda. Those were the days )of the five cent sodas, but none . , other since has ever had the delectable taste those sodas had. And r when Eddy brought up from the I basement that peanut roaster full of i j fresh roasted peanuts, and placed it 11 right by the front door well, there I was no resisting it. It's goobers. i! and goobers my choice. t| Small school boy to his dad: ; “Say. dad. it must be alright to play ?!the slot machines.” J Dad: “Why do you think so?"

’ Boy: "I saw teacher doing it, but she didn’t get a thing.” Doctor Ward William Wisenbaugh North Liberty's largest and best dentist, has returned from an extended trip through the west. The tooth extractor deluxe was greatly impressed with the sights he saw, and came back to his daily grind with what might be termed an intelllgentia inoculation. Enroute home through the southwest he was most interested in the famed "dust bowl” and made some inquiries about same. Said one native, posessed with an enlarged sense of the dramatic, "Why, stranger, you ask me how dry it is around here . . . let me tell you it's so dry hereabouts that only yesterday I saw three trees chasing a dog.” And now we must lock up shop and get off Mainstreet before we run into trouble. Character is what we are; reputation, what we seem. True friendship is a plant of slow growth.
