Are You Proud of Your Shoes?
You may justly be proud of your foot-wear if you use
the proper care in getting- the right shoe dealer. No matter
what the quality of a shoe, it must be . nttea to your leet
properly to answer the purpose for which it was intended. In
making1 shoes the leather is stretched over the last, which is
a wooden foot; and just like the different shaped feet there
are different shaped lasts. We have shoes made over a last
shaped like your feet. It doesn't cost you any more. Now,
let us prove this; and it won't cost you any extra for a stylish,
satisfactory and long wearing shoe.

Dedication of the Presbyterian Church.
Sunday was tho red letter day for
the Presbyterian church in this city.
It witnesssd tho series of events,
arranged by tho pastor nnd committee,
for tho setting apart and dedication of
their beautiful now house of worship.,
Last Friday's issuo contained a do
cription and cut of the church. But
as the pastor, under whoso adminis
tration the work has been completed,
was not mentioned, ho may bo
mentioned in this connection.
Rev. George Franklin Williams, M.
A., wna raised in this state, and
received his education in Bellcvuo Col
lego and Princeton Theological Seminary.
He also did post graduate work in
Princeton University. He was ordained
by tho Presbytery of Omaha, in
September, 1899, at Bancroft. Mr.
Williams is a son of the manse, his
father, Rev. Geo. Williams, D, D.,
laving been an early and aggressive
lomo missionary in this Synod. The
building of churches seems to give
him satisfaction. During h!sfour years
pastorate in Lexington a beau
tiful church was erected and dedicated.
Mr. Williams has been five years in
the Kearney presbytery, of which ho is
tho stated clerk. Having spent all his
ministry in this state ho has become one
of the best known of tho younger min
isters of his denominations, and has held
mportant trusts therein. He is a man of
positive convictions and in tho work
of tho church stands for progress. Ho
is a young man between thirty-five and
forty. In his eloven yoara in tho pas
torate he has helped three congregations
improve old or build new houses to a
total value of $50,000. While through
ly loyal to his own he- is fraternal and
catholic in spirit. Tho printed program
of dedication events contained the fol-
owing items which'aro of interest to
many.
At a meeting held in the Baptist
Church, of North Platte, on Juno 5,
1873, this church was organized by the
Rev. N. C. Robinson, Superintendent
of Missions for southwestern Iowa and
Nebraska. There were ten charter
members. The congregation continued
to worship in tho Baptist Church until
tho autumn of 1877. It then worshipped
in tho Court House until the summer of
1878 when it moved into its new church
on Spruce, now Dewey Street. Tho old
building was moved in 1905 to the Bite
of the present edifice and was torn down
this spring. Tho following ministers
have served tho Church: Rovcrcnds
Geo. A. Hutchison, James A. Gerhard,
G. M. Darley, John H. Burlinson, H.
C. Baskerville, John F. Hopkins, C. C.
Hart, John C. Irwin, A. W. Vernor
and Thomas B. Greenlee, Ph. D., who
closed his labors September, 1908.
Large audiences greeted tho speakers
at each service. Dr. Thomas B.
Greenlee, a former pastor, preached
the dedicatory sormon, which was ap
propriate and eloquent. Dr. Willinms
of Lincoln, who was to have rendered
that service being unablo to bo present.
Following the simple ceremony of
dedication Dr. W. H. Kearns offered n
beautiful prayer in which the building
was sot apart to tho service of God.
The afternoon fellowship service wbb
participated in by all thepaslors of tho
city. Their addresses wore short but
full of the spirit of christian fellowship.
Letters of greeting wero read from Dr
T. L. Sexton and Rov. J. C. Irwin, tho
latter being a former pastor. Much re-
grot waB expressed that Dr. George
Williams, of Llincoln, could not be present.
Tho evening sorvico was one of in
spiration and power. Dr. Turner is an
eloquent and forceful speaker, a scho
lar and thinker. His ''Layman's Mes
sago" dealt with the "Citizen in tho
Making" and emphasized tho need of
broad and deep culture as an equip
ment for right living in civilized socie
ty. He viewed the man in relation to
society, business, politics and religion.
His nblo address called out many words
of appreciation.
Tho church choir of twenty-four
voices, led by Mrs. Lcininger and Mrs.
Schiller sang special numbers at each
of th6 three services, delighting the
congregations that filled the house to
overflowing. The big organ skillfully
handled by Mrs. E. A. Cary added
much to the joy of tho occasion in the
worship of praise. As an evidence of
appreciation by tho congregation tho
following items appeared in tho
souvenir program and should bo -noted
here. Tho corner atono was prepared
and presented by W. C. Ritner. The
following committee selected the organ:
Miss Belton, Mrs. E. A. Cary, Mrs.
Ora DeFord, Mrs. W. H. McDonald,
Miss Mary Strahorn. 4Mr. Perry SItton
acted as superintendent during tho
entire period of construction. The
beautiful individual communion service
is tho gift of the Philathea girls. The
piano given some years ago by Eva S.
Baldwin is in the assembly room down
stairs. Tho organ and a part of the
furniture of tho old church aro used in
tho Sunday school room. By action of
the congregation tnoro aro no memorial
or presentation windows.
