On Wednesday of last week at the beautiful country home of Mr. and Mrs. C. M. Reed, was held the reg ular meeting of the Ladies Aid So ciety of the Christian church. A large and very much interested num ber of the members -were present and a very worthwhile time was had The hostesses served a very fine luncheon and' entertained the ladies in a very pleasant manner. One very pleasing feature of the afternoon was the address given by Mrs. O. T. Leyda who treated the subject of law en forcement and especially the eight eenth amendment to the federal con stitution and which is generally known as the Volstead law, and with the array of tacts at her command occupied some forty-five minutes in the delivering of the address. All were pleased with the masterful manned in which Mrs. Leyda han dled the subject. Wisdom in Counsel Acts 15:22-29; Gal. 2:1-2-9-10. The church of Jesus Christ has at all times had some vexatious questions to settle. At the time of this lesson, her activity had reached out into the heathen world and her success was phenomenal. The question arose among the Jewish converts and trou bled some a great deal, how the con verts of the Gentiles should be taken into the church. The Jewish Chris tians would advocate the application of the Mosaic law circumcision. Peter, Paul and Barnabas testified that God had baptised the converts with the Holy Ghost, the same as the Apostles, and he stressed the point that justification was by faith and not by works. This condition brought about the first council of the church, which was convened at Jerusalem. After the council was called to order, James the Just presiding. Peter was recognised and he related his experi ence at Casuria, in the home of Cor nelius, bow, while he preached Christ, the people had listened intently, and Jow, by faith in the word, they re ceived pardon of their sins and the gift of the Holy Ghost. Then Paul and Barnabas related the experiences of their first mission ary tour, how men were justified by faith and were added to the church. Paul had wisely taken six brethren with him, when he went to Casarea; Paul had Barnabas and John Mark as witnesses to prove their case. Then a silence fell "on the assembly; the recitation produced a profound effect. Finally the chairman arose and sum med up the case in a well chosen ad dress (which should be read,' Acts IS: 13-21) and at Its close introduced a resolution, which was unanimously adopted and sent by a delegation con sisting of Paul. Barnabas. Barsabas and Silas to the eburehes at Antioch. Syria and Celicia. to explain the acticn of the envrch. These men staod very iffc ia tk ckurch. By tote resolution, kese converts were net to be eurdsnei'by - observing $kf ol Mosaic law, but to abstain from sac rifices to idols. The whole matter was considered prayerfully and the Holy Ghcse gave consent. If all laws were passed in this manner, we would have more just laws and not so many unenforceable ones on the statute books of the state and nation. These laws have not been repealed to this day, neither have they been amended, proving that they were well consid tred and were for the good of man kind. This resolution as passed by the Council was very essential for the Gentile Christians. The first provis ion, that of abstaining from things offered to idols, was necessary because there was not to be any encourage ment given to idol worship. The whole breaths the act of brotherly love and kindness toward the new converts. The latter part is very significant. In writing to the Galatians, Paul re lates his going to Jerusalem. During this visit occured the great council fourteen years after his conversion. To the leaders of the church, he re hearsed the great work done among the Gentiles, and the mighty outpour ings of the Holy Ghost upon the con verts to which Barnabas and Titus could testify. These men extended to Paul and the others the right hand of fellowship, and were told that thy should have for their field the heath en, but that they themselves would confine their labors to the Jewish na tion; only that they should remem ber the poor, which Paul promised and conscientiously carried out. We learn from this lesson the fol lowing facts: (1) There is wisdom in counsel, exchanging ideas and hear ing the opinions! of others; (2) Many misunderstandings could be avoided by and through conferences; f3) Christians who hazard their lives, like Paul and bis co-workers, sre sin cere; H) It is possible for Christians to differ and yet be friends: () From the very berieniag the ehureh has tsktn a keen interest ia the unfor tunate and the needy. Making Very Nice Place. The ladies of the Murray Public Library, have added some forty books to the library and also have had the interior painted and decor ated, making a very nice place for the library and while everything is spick and span on tbe inside, they are hoping some of the men inter ested in city of Murray and of the library will volunteer to paint the exterior of the building. Mrs. G. M Minford has given the price for the purchase of a new book for the li brary. Returns To the West. T. J. Brendel and the good wife on Sunday morning departed for Franklin where Mr. Brendel is an inspector for the state in the mat ter of the road construction for the new highways which is being built there. During the fore part of the summer Mr. Brendel was inspector near McCook. Murray Indeed Fortunate. The city of Murray is indeed for tunate in that they are to have Mr Vac Mickluskey and son remain as their blacksmiths. Mr. Mickluskey repcrts that he has just layed in a stock of wagon materials and other needed things for the blacksmith shop and is prepared to get your wagons ready for the corn picking, which is coming sooner thnn for merly. When he is not busy with other work he is manufacturing need ed farm articles such as hounds standards and bolsters for farm wa gons. Mr. Mickluskey is a rare blacksmith and the farmers and other people who need work in this line are very fortunate in that they have such an excellent workman Will Attend Wesleyan. Willard, the son of Mr. and Mrs. B. H. Nelson, who concluded the -ourse at the Nehawka schools last year, has entered the Wesleyan uni versity at University Place and was accompanied on last Sunday after noon to Lincoln where he registered as a student. Willard is an excellent student and young man and we are certain he will succeed in his school work. Will Have Nice Place. Charles V. Barrows who. mad? such a good success In the conduct of the Rock Creek Service Station, is soon to have a completed service station four miles north of the Rock Creek station and at the curve east of Mynard. Mr. Barrows is building a very nice place and is also install ing a workshop as well as a gas eta tion and will be prepared to service your car in all your requirements. He will be ready for service in a short time. Watch for announce ments. Found Crops Very Fair. Last week C. M. Reed and Roy Gerking returned from their trip in the west where they visited many places in Kansas and Colorado and were impressed with the beauty of the country and also with the very good crops there. They visited at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Iver Standish, Mrs. Standish being a sister of Mr. Reed and found them enjoying the home there. They have good crops and are liking the country- very much. They visited at the home of John M. Chalfant and looked at his one thousand acre field of corn which was looking fine and as well to keep out of mischief, Mr. Chalfant also sells farming machinery.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE The subject cf the lesson-sermon read at all Christian Science church es and societies on Sunday, Septem ber 13, was "Substance." The selec tions read are intended to convey the concept of substance as that which is eternal, unchangeable, and indestruc tible, and that material things do not conform to this higher idea of uhst.mre. and therefore lack the permanency of God and His spiritual creation. One of the citations read from the Bible is in part as follows: I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be forever: nothing can be put to it, nor anything taken from it." (Eccl. 3:14) One of the cita tions read from "Science and Health with Key to Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy (p. 349) is as follows: In Christian Science, substance is understood to be Spirit, while the op ponents of Christian Science beliebe substance to be matter. They think of matter as something and almost the only thing, and of the things which pertain to Spirit as next to nothing, or as very far removed from daily experience. Christian Science takes exactly the opposite view." CRITICALLY HURT IN WRECK Lester Lansc-n, twenty-five, Whit ng. Ind., was ac Dr. Bailey's san,itor um Sunday night in critical condi tion from a cerebral hemorrhage re sulting from a car crash about mid night Saturday a mile south of Weep ing Water.

Max Kirst and John Hansen, Havelock, were not injured. Kirst and Hansen, who said they. were employes ; of the Asphalt Pav ing corporation, told hospital attend ants they had hired Lanson, who was driving to Lincoln, to bring them here. Lanson was driving the car when it was wrecked. Nothing known of the young man here, it appears.
