Walter Stege of the Farmers and

in Elm wood on last Sunday and as
Monday was Labor day and he was

The stcry is told that there were
three p.pole in Alvo last Monday
to look ;f;er the town that the Gyp
sies or Indians did not carry the place
awav, the remainder having gone to
Lincoln to enjoy the state fair, and
fomd man many people there, even
more than attend a picture show in
Alvo on Saturday.

thirteen an unlucky number for
when C. D. Ganz. A. B. Stromer
Earl Dreamer and Alfred Snedgen
had ciucht twelve very fine fish,
tluy were very busy during the last

in taking. Tiiev were fishing in the

for sem of their friends, for we- are
r.sur'.-d th.'.t the mavor. Mr. Arthur
Dir.M-s has a fish bone in his throat.
But he got it out and is all right.
Resolved that the wisdom and
ability which he has exercised on the
aid of our organization by service,
contributions, and counsel, will be
held in greatful rembrance.
Resolved that the sudden removal
of such a life from among our midst
leaves a vacancy and a shadow that
will be deeply realized by all the
members and friends of this organiz
ation, and will prove a serious loss
to this community.
Resolved that with deep sympa
thy with the bereaved relatives of the
deceased we express our hopes, that
even so great a loss to us all may be
overruled for good by Him who doeth
all things well:
Resolved that a copy of these re
solutions be spread upon the records
of this organization, a copy printed
in the local paper, and a copy for
warded to the bereaved family.

Farmers Union
Picnic Was a
Grand Success
Interesting Speakers, Band Music,
Dinner and Contests Were in
Order During Day,
The annual picnic of the Farmers
Union of Cass county was held at
Krafts grove south of town on last
Thursday and was a big success, the
attendance being good and the in
terest great. The Farmers Union
band of Louisville, was one of the
most popular attractions of the day.
and was under the leadership oi
Bandmaster F. R. Kraeger, of Weep
ing Water.
Two interesting speakers from out
of town were present, C. A. McCar
thy, state president of the Farmers
Union, and Mr. Milligan, who is the
nee agent of the company.
both of Omaha. They spoke on sub
jects of interest to the farmers and
were heartily applauded.
Rev. David Simpson, pastor of the
M. E. church, at Louisville, who has
had a wide ministerial experience in
Canada, spoke interestingly and in
telligently on the subject of the Ca
nadian Wheat Pool, which is a sub
ject he has given much thought and
study.
The Riester sisters. Irene and Dor
othy, whose songs delight their audi
ences whenever they appear, sang a
"Nebraska" song that brought down
the audience and called for a hearty
encore. A very attractive little dance
by the children of Mr. and Mrs. Otto
Schaefer, grandchildren of James
Terryberry, was very pleasing and
much enjoyed.
The basket dinner was the main
event and everyone had a good time
renewing acquaintances. The young
er folks took active part in the var
ious contests which were very amus
ing and a ball game proved of great
interest to many.
While the program was shorter
than usual, the band numbers more
than made up for any lack along
tint line and the members of this
band should feel encouraged to even
greater ecort by the warm reception
they always receive when they play.
The picnic was up to the usual stand
ard in every way and will long be
remembered as a very enjoyable
event. Louisville Courier.

bur and Belmont, while working as
yard foreman for the Burlington rail
road. When Mr. Zimmerman arrived in
Eagle records showed eighty-eight
resident members. To this list he has
added sixty-one. With his Sunday
school staff he has built up an at
tendance that cannot be boused in
the church. One class meets em the
large porch of the banker, another at
the home of the village blacksmith,
one at the parsonage and four in a
house across the street, its use being
donated by a member of another
church in Eagle.
Two hundred and seventy were
present a few Sundays ago making
the tenth new record established ,
since Jan. 3. 1927, when 123 were :
in attendance. The largest previous
record, 115, was made the Sunday be
fore Christmas 1923, and seventy was
the largest previous average attend
ance. The average for this conference
year, with its small beginning is 132
but 226 is the average for July ami
August as compared with 66, the
average for these two months last 1
year.
Mr. Zimmerman has organized the j
first orchestra the Sunday school has
ever had. It has fourteen Dieces. His ;
church school baseball team, which i
includes a girl pitcher, has lost but j
two of the tweive games played in i
the Cass county league and one i
against the home town team.
Church finance at Eagle has been ,
uphill business for a few years. Con- ,
solidated school taxes still heavy, a
few le-an crops and many people fleec- i
ed by blue sky salesmen left the I
church with a deficit as the new year j
was started. Graveling streets in i
front ef the church and parsonage
had to be paid for, two furnaces in
stalled, 140 new song books and
music for the orchestra beiught. Still
the stewards hope to close the year
with all bills paid.
Of the small town church Mr. Zim
merman says: "When I think of th.
small town church I also think of
the small town, and those living
around it. The population of many of
these small towns is somewhat de
pleted. It is drained of many of its
most enterprising elements. Hardly
a home but what has some represen
tative in the cities. And many homes
are occupied solely by old couples
who are near or have passed the al
lotted three score years and ten.
"This is a day of high specializa
tion. But how can the small town
doctor specialize? He makes man
calls and each call represents a dif
ferent case, except in epidemics. His
critical cases go to the city special-

the Degree of Chivalry of the Re-

"Like the doctor, the small town
preacher must generalize. He finds
the emotional and financial response
of these parishioners in inverse ra
tion to their needs. His time is oc
cupied by a multitude of things and
unless he forces himself to take time
to study he is likely to get into a
rut.
"Xo sketch of the small town
church could be much more interest
ing than that of the Methodist Epis
copal church at Sprague. Not many
years ago they promised their preach
er $200 a year and paid all but $75.
A change came with the finding of
leaders, the first being a Sundav
school superintendent
Then for a treasurer a banker
was chosen who indicated that the
business of the church must be run
on a business basis. And until be had
taught them the need of giving as
God had prospered them, he assisted
them by having a check made out to
present for their signature when they
came into the bank. Perhaps a few
held their breath when they saw the
amount, but they generally signed
and liked him for it.
"In 191S I went there as a student
pastor, and was immediately handed
a checkbook and told that my salary
was in the bank. One Sunday morn
ing in June I presented the centen
ary budget and asked for a pledge of
2.865. Pledge cards were handed
out as they left, with the request
that they be brought back that eve
ning signed for at least the amount
asked. When we counted the card??
that evening, we found a pledge of
$4,250. And Sprague, with its 112
population still pays well and still
pays in advance. Why? Because many
believe and practice the giving of
the tithe.
Many small town churches are
having a struggle to exist, and some
are being closed. If this is the only
church in the community, this should
never be allowed to happen. Too great
