Your pilgrim ventured to Trinity , Lutheran church last Sunday. Aug. ; 7th. It was a great day for the con gregation, because a new pastor was to be in'ducted into his offi?e as shep herd. It was a beautiful day, from far and near the faithful members cf the Lutheran church came to en : joy this memorable day. It was a very impressive solemn and spiritual service. The Rev. Thordore Hartman officiated, who in his forceful and iru , prersive manner, delivered a master- f ul sermon, based on the first chapter j cf James Epistle, setting forth the : purpose of the church, and how this : end may be reached, namely: by j prayer, by faith, by a holy, desire to . do God's will. A praying church is a i successful church, a believing church j is a victorious church, and where there there is a earnest desire, things ; will be accomplished.

THINK THIS OVER Commenting on study of the cost of government made by the Xational Industrial Conference Board, Magnu. W. Alexander, president of the board says: "While the federal government simultaneously with its drastic tax reduction program since 10 21, liar utilized more than 21 per cent of it. total expenditures for debt retire ment, the state and local governments combined, since 1 f 2 1 have spent less than four per cent for the purpose of meeting maturing obligations. "It is this policy of piling up new; indebtedness without retiring appre-' ciable portions, of old debts that, threatens to create unbearable tax; burdens unless the fiscal policies of. local and state governments undergo a radical reform. ; "Only the most drastic check to these mounting expenditures will prevent the tax lulls cf our state .and local government from becoming an intolerable burden to business and to tii individual taxnaver.
