Cisney to the stock market at South Omaha on last Monday evening. Thomas Nelson, the handy man at the Nickles lumber yard, has been keeping busy making feed bunks for the use of John W. Livingston for the feeding of a large number of cattle which he has now on the farm. J. D. Kelsey and the good wife of Farragut. Iowa, were visiting for Sunday and Monday at the home of Mrs. Henry C.

Walter Griffin and wife of Decatur, Earl Jenkins and family and Arthur Griffin and wife of Lewis, Iowa, were here to attend the funeral of the late Greene Piggott, which is noted elsewhere, and also were visiting with relatives.

Hatchett was spending a number of days during this week at Crocker, Missouri, where he went to visit with his brother and family for a few days. As Mr. Hatchett himself formerly resided there the visit will be of especial interest. W. G. Boedeker, who departed on last Thursday for the northwestern portion of the state where he was looking after the purchase of some cattle for feeding and while he found many very satisfactory he also founi the prices as being rather high when the risk is taken in feeding them no Glen did not make any purchase pre ferring to wait for better purchasing prices, returned home on last Mon day, having an opportunity to ride home with some friends whom lie met from Red Oak, Iowa.

The Base Ball Game. With the Murray Red Sox having played twenty-three games, winning nineteen of them, they have a very enviable record. On last Sunday they were to have a game with the South Side Merchants of Omaha and as they failed to appear until after Bible School Lesson Study! Sunday, September 27th By L. Neitzel The Spread of Christianity in Asia The lesson hour wil be spent to recapltculate the last twelve lessons. Much ground is covered. The early church was a very active church. The book studied is the acts of the apostles, but should rather be called "The Work of the Holy Spirit." This necessitates a study of the third per son in the Trinity. The Koly Spirit is much in'eidence. first at penticost, fulfilling the promise of Jesus; then in leading Philip cn the road to Gaza, where He converted that, black man. who carried the Gospel into Africa. Next He fills Stephen, who full of faith and wisdom, becomes the first martyr. Then He selects the first missionaries, and so carries on the work begun by Jesus. . Next we note the personalities mentioned in the lessons: There is Peter, who by his preaching at penti ccst opened the door to The Kingdom for the Jews. Then we have Philip, a great evangelist who had a great revival in Samaria. Then comes Stephen with his masUrful sermon that secured him the martyr's crown. Then the greatest man of all ages, Saul of Tarsus. Next we come to Barnabas, the first preacher at Auti cxh. who called Saul or Tarsus to his "aid; Who became the first mis Fionaries. Mention should be made of John Mark, who eventually became c great preacher and writer of the fJospel of Mark. The persecution is .f vital consequence to the church at Jerusalem, it caused the spread of the Gospel beyond the borders of Pal estine, into three continents, Africa, Asia and Europe. A map study is also involved, in following the workers from place to 1'lace. Samaria is first visited, then 'aesarea where the conversion of the f.rst gentile took place Cornelius. T)anea?ans. Antiocb. Seleucia, Cyp rus. Salamis, Papnos. Perga, back to Antioch, by Paul and Barnabas. The preaching of the apostles should be given careful study; in all their preaching the name of Jesus wan ex alted it was salvation through faith in Jesus Christ that the apostles r tressed; and we scMce that that of preaching is the panacea for 'the ills of the human race, and ever will be; it changes the lives of in dividuals, as also nations. It is good for body and scul, as proven in these lessens. The lessons on social service and temperance reveal how vitally relig ion is related to daily living. Shar ing with others who are in need had its real beglning with Christians. Today those who pass Jesus by give little heed to the needs of those about them. Benevolence originates in a heart attitude. The Christians made immediate plans when the Grecian widows complained and the poor saints in Jerusalem were in mind weherever Paul went in his journeys. Aiso the law of tlie harvest, that what we sow we shall reap is oper ative in every life. Reference should he made to the experiences of the missionaries; they were not all of a pleasant nature. They had some great victories, and hours of gladness, when they saw the n:ul. itudes turn from idol-worship to God; and they had to suffer when tre enemies of the Gospel would arouse the mob spirit in the unbe lievers, and prison and persecution end even stoning would be visited upon them. While we were studying the be ginning of the missionary movement, let the teachers emphasize the fact that the greatest missionary book in the world is the Bible. The greatest missionary book in the Bible is the Acts of the Apostles; the greatest missionary chapter in the Acta is the thirteenth; the greatest missionary verses in the thirteenth chapter are the first three verses. The greatest deed recorded of the Antioch church was the sending forth of Paul and Barnabas; these were the strongest men in the church. The spread of the Gospel and its victories, are full of thrills. The converts number by the thousands, and all this was accom plished in only twenty years time, indeed a marvelous achievement; proving the vitality of Gospel. The council at Jerusalem settled some pertinent questions, regarding the reception of the gentiles, without first submitting the ceremonial of the old - Mosaic law. Gooo Dol Murray Doll Park versus Cccby Clin Sunday, Sept. 27th Game Called at 2:45 The Cudahy Clix were runners up in the Southern League and were winners over the Cudahy Rex team. Admission - - - 25 the time for the game had been set, their manager, Alfred Gansemer, de parted for home, thinking there was to be no game.

Abies and family of Oak land, California, arrived in Murray last week and has been visiting at the home of her brother, Mr. Virgil Svdduth end family and were attend ing the county fair on Friday of last week. Califomians Visit Hera. Many people of Murray, Nehawka and Plattsniouth have been enjoying a visit of late from Messrs. Westley Davis and Win. R. Davis, sons of Raj Davis, of Fullerton. California, and grandsons of W. R. Davis, who form erly resided near Nehawka and who has been making his home on the west coast for some time. They were visiting here at the home of J. V. Pitman, and also O. A. Davis and wfe. Mr. and Mrs. Will S. Smith gave a reception in their honor on last Monday when they also had as their guests O. A. Davis and wife and Mr. and Mrs. E. S. Tutt. Doing A Very Fine Work. The Ladies Aid of the Christian church have been very busy with good works when not busy making quilts to keep some one warm when the weather is cold. They have been canning fruits and have accumulated more than a barrel of canned goods, the barrel being sent to the Child's Savings Institute in Omaha, for use there and the ladies sure will en joy the fact that their work will help feed the little ones. The- re mainder will be placed in the Nutri tion cupboard and will be saved for the presenting to those poor of the locality who may be in need during the coming winter. This we consider as doing a very noble service to humanity. For Sale. Corn Binder. Albert Young. Mur ray. Nebr. s!7-md2t Library Notes. The library was reopened Satur day. September 19th.

MURRAY WINS GAME While the weather of last Sunday caused a number of the Murray Red Sox from gathering for their battle with the South Side Merchants of Omaha, the visiting team arrived and the regulars of the Sox with a few of the ball enthusiasts who were pres ent, formed a team that took the Merchants into camp by the score of 3 to 1. One of the stellar features of the game was the pitching of Miller for Murray, he securitrs' fourteen strike outs and was supported by KeckJer back of the bat. Murray secured their first score in the second inning when Keckler scored on an error, the visitors ty ing the score in the seventh inning.
