While here they saw Mrs. Jaeger's brother, George Kruse, who is working on a farm west of Mur dock. While Eddie Craig, the barber, was sweeping out his Ford Friday morn ing, the long broom handle" fell out of place and tried to go through the windshield.

New Home Nearing1 Completion The house which is being built by Matthew Thimgan for Louis Wendt is now nearing completion and when it is done and ready to move into we will give a detailed account of the new homeTwhich is to be modern and arranged for convenience. Just now, Mr. "Thimgan is commencing a new building near Ashland for Richard Riem, which .will be of brick veneer construction the-same as the -Wendt home, patterned along the popular Old English lines. The excavation for this home has been completed and the foundations are being construct ed at this time. Tendered Beception by Friends The neighbors of Mr. and Mrs. Con- radt Baumerartner. who are soon to leave for Los Angeles to spend the winter in a milder climate, tendered them a farewell reception last Sat urday night, a large number coining to enjoy the evening and bringing an abundance of good things to eat with them. Mr. and Mrs. Baumgartner came to the vicinity of Murdock in 1892 and have resided here ever since, spending practically all of their married life in this vicinity, where they have a large number of friends. In depart ing for the southwest they take with them the best wishes of all. Rev. John Baumgartner, father of Conradt, was the first pastor of the Trinity church 2 miles north of Mur dock, coming here in the year 1892. He served in that capacity for seven teen years, until 1909, when his ad vancing years compelled his retire ment. Rev. Baumgartner was ordain ed to the ministry at Huntley, 111., where he served for some time and where the son Conradt was born. A few years after the latter's birth, the family moved to Buffalo county, and Rev. Baumgartner was pastor of a church near Kearney until the time of the removal of the family to Mur dock. Upon the retirement of Rev. Baumgartner the church here was served by the Rev. J. W. Peters for another seventeen years, being follow ed by Rev. Zoch for six years, then by Rev. Krey who is the present min ister. Spent Sunday in Omaha Mr. and Mrs. Charles Kupke went to Omaha Friday of last week, re maining until the following Tuesday for a visit at the home of their daugh ter, Mrs. Martin Bohlson and family. On Saturday, Columbus day, Messrs Bohlson and Kupke made a trip to Shenandoah, going down the Iowa side through Council Bluffs to Glen- wood over the scenic hill route tra versed by the paved highway. From the high points along the drive they were able to get a fine view of the Missouri river bottom and the Ne ' ( ' , , hi .. braska shore line. -- Continuing" on from Glenwood, they went to Sidney and thence eastward to Shenandoah over an all paved route. After spend ing a few hours in the radio city, they returned to Omaha, having had a most pleasant trip. Hunting Pheasants at North Loup Lacey McDonald and a party of friends who like himself are greatly interested in the outdoors and par ticularly in hunting, left Saturday af ternoon for North Loup, where Mr. and Mrs. Harry Gillespie reside, ex pecting to visit there over the week end and spend the day Sunday hunt ing the elusive pheasant. The season opened yesterday with the usual large number of hunters out and pheasants reported even scarcer than last year. Many Enjoy Fine Playlet Last Friday evening at the Murdock school building, the first, second, third and fourth grades presented a play entitled "Land of Dream Come True." The children had been coach ed by the teacher and made a fine showing considering their ages and the difficult scenes to be enacted. A crowded house greeted the presenta tion and all were ,well pleased with the acting of the little folks. Anniversary at Murdock The thirtieth anniversary of the oragnization of the Ebenezer Evan gelical church was ushered in with an ideal day last Sunday. The Sunday school had its rally day in the morn ing with a splendid program, every class participating. Promotion will follow next Sunday. The decorations were simply beau tiful, representing a "harvest home" scene. This Sunday school was orga nized at the time the church was organized. H. R. Schmidt was its first superintendent and during all these thirty years there have been but five superintendents, all of whom are living and took part in the exercises. They are Mr. Schmidt, Gottlieb Baur, O. H. Miller, Leo Rikli and John Schlaphoff, the present superintend ent. The good it has done and the in fluence it has exerted will be known only when the books are opened on "that day" in the future. The morning program showed what an earnest, consecrated corps of Sun day school teachers can do. This two million unpaid, often little appreciat ed army, are the recruiting officers of the church and without them the church would soon be dead. The evening service brought a "full house" of friends together, all rejoicing in the achievements of the church. We were especially glad to have the first minister, Rev. II. Pieper, now living in Elmwood, as also the first Sunday school superintendent, H. R. Schmidt, with us. The guest speaker, Dr. E. S. Wegner, of Lincoln, delivered a fine address, full of sound sense, encouragement and advice; if followed out by the members it will make the church a tremendous fac tor for good citizenship as well as all its members heirs for the Mansions in Glory. As this is the only church in Mur dock, her responsibility is very great, but she is doing good work and rea lizes what is expected of her and she could do more good if all our citizens would come and give her a chance. We have the room and the equipment to serve all, and we are anxious and eager to be put to the test. . The church needs you and you need the church. Let's get together and make the community an example in Godliness. Mrs. Nancy Buck Lies Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Buck and other nembers of the family were in Greenwood last Tuesday to attend the funeral of the late Mrs. Nancy Buck, who died at her late home there on Sunday. Burial was in the Green wood cemetery. A further account of the death of the departed lady ap pears elsewhere in this issue. History of Murdock Ebenezer Evangelical Church (THIRTIETH ANNIVERSARY) Ever since the, days of Jacob Kus- che, the first Evangelical missionary to this part of our state, the work of building the Kingdom of God has gone forth with pioneering faith, daunt less adventuring against obstacles, with a spirit to do and dare for God. Under his leadership a great work was begun, which later resulted in the establishment of the church of the Nebraska Conference. The Evangelical people of .this sur rounding community worshiped in the earlier years in the Louisville church. Great good was accomplished and spiritual power and growth was manifested. Meetings were read in various parts and different classes were organized. Ministers were sent, from time to time, to preach the Word of God, with power and holy zeal and to lead the people forth in the beauty of holiness. The church branched out and in later years the Callahan and Elmwood congregations were orga nized. To this day, they are work ing effectively in their respective spheres. In 1904 Rev. II. Piefer (now a re tired minister at Elmwood, Nebras ka) was stationed by tlie Conference to serve the Louisville constituency. At that time, it was recognized that a considerable number of that congre gation had moved westward and south toward the village of Murdock, and that some had also moved into the town itself. This fact was a sufficient warrant to develop plans for estab lishing k new field. Thus efforts were put forth to build the Evangelical church in Murdock. After the conference session held in March, 1905, definite plans and steps were taken, private subscriptions were secured and a contribution of $S00.00 from the Conference Trustees was re ceived. Five choice lots were secured on Main street. The basement was dug and the auditorium was built and completed during the summer months of 1905 under the direction of the Thimgan Brothers. The building was dedicated free of debt at a cost of about ,$2,600, on September 17, 1905. Dr. Kieckhaefer, then president of Northwestern Col lege, at Naperville, Illinois, was the guest speaker and dedicated our new sanctuary. October S, 1905, the Sunday school was organized and Herman Schmidt was elected as the first Sunday school superintendent. Christ Miller was elected the first assistant superinten dent. Since the day of its organiza tion, this Sunday school in all of these thirty years has had but five superintendents, namely: Herman I Schmidt, G. Baur, Otto Miller, Leo Rikli and Schlaphof, who is at pres ent holding office. The first Sunday school organization resulted in the following officers: The superintendent and assistant superintendent as above named; Emil Miller, secretary; David Thimgan, treasurer; Edward Thim gan, librarian; Martha Kuehn Thim gan, organist. One week later, October 15, 1805, the prayer meeting was organized, with August Kuehn elected as the first class leader. Arthur Rikli, who pass ed away last July, was elected as as sistant class leader and Mary. Miller Long as organist. The first church wedding was held on the first Thursday after the dedi cation ceremonies, which united An tonia Kuehn and Frank Rosenow in holy wedlock. It seems, that death en tered the ranks of the church mem- bership in 1909, . when death took Adolph Brauchle and Grandpa C. Bucholz. The Rev. A. Brauchle was the next pastor, serving from 190S to 1911. During his pastorate, the parsonage was built at a total cost of $1,800. Much of the material from the old country parsonage, then located one mile east of the Louisville church, was used in the town parsonage. The south. lot adjoining the property pur chased for the church, was bought for $100 to erect the present parsonage. In the month of August, 1910, the first union tent meeting was held. It was a great success. Twenty-three conversions were witnessed, together with a deep spiritual power. The Woman's Missionary society was organized in 1908. Since its or ganization, the society has had only four presidents, namely: Mrs. August Kuehn, Mrs. A. Brauchle, Mrs. Otto Miller and Mrs. William Rikli, who is holding office at the present time. Rev. C. W. Boelter was the next minister to serve the Murdock church from 1911 to 1915. He had many difficult problems to solve during his sojourn among us. At this time both churches and the parsonage' were painted. The terrific struggle that he had with the saloon during these years, we all know. It took almost a year to close its doors, but the Lord crowned our efforts with success. A. H. Schwab served this circuit during the years 1915 to 1920. The gospel was proclaimed without fear or favor. During Rev. Schwab's time the membership increased from 134 to 15S; the field was at its height in financial offerings and new organiza tions were developed. The Y. W. C. now called the Young People's Mis sionary Circle, the Junior Y, P. A. end the Message Bearers, now called the Mission Band, originated during his pastorate. During these five years, nine re vival meetings wete held, with 45 conversions and 21 people graduated from catechism instruction. In his report, he said: "It was at this place that our great sadness came to us as a larauy. ine release irom eartniy suffering came to our dear companion and mother on January 15, 1919." Rev. A. Langenberg received his recommendation fop license to preach from this congregation during Mr. Schwab's pastorate.' He later entered the active ministo-rial ranks and is today serving the Evangelical church at Scotia, Nebraska. Rev. I. Laiffly served Murdock from from 1920 to 1923. Spiritual progress was witnessed and a large catechet ical class was established. During his pastorate, we had the joy of celebrat ing the Fiftieth anniversary of the establishment of the Louisville con gregation. Rev. A. Stauss served from 1923 to 1928. At that time the worship ser vices were still conducted in German Rev. Stauss was deeply grieved to see the young people leave the services because of their lack of understanding the German language. In 1923 a joint revival meeting was held with Rev. F. F. Jordan, of Elgin, Illinois, the evangelist, and great success was at tained. In the fall of that year, the addition was built, being constructed by H. R. Schmidt at a cost of $2,600. It was dedicated in April, 1924, by Rev. J. Scherbacher, then the district presiding elder. Rev. Baitinger, evan gelist, held a union meeting with 32 conversions. Twentv-four joined the church. In that "year 29 members were received and two catechetical classes were gxamined. Rev. II. R. Knosp was stationed here from 192S to 1935. The member ship in June, 1928, was 164, and in January, 1935, the membership was IS 7. During these seven years, twelve revival meetings were held, which re sulted in 61 conversions and 63 mem bers received into the church. Three vacation Bible schools were held and four catechism classes, with an en rollment of forty pupils. The highest average Sunday school attendance was in the year ,1933, when it reached 19 6. The church platform was raised in 1932. Miss Adeline Knosp has the distinction of being the first baby to be born in the present parsonage. In May, 1934, the Nebraska Conference was entertained. That year the Mis sion Band reached its highest mem bership a total of 38. During the past thirty years it seems that there were 2 8 deaths, 18 marriages and four church weddings, as follows: Kuehn-Rosenow; Miller Frisbee; Reickman-Neben, and Law-ton-Sawyer. , The present pastor, Harvey A. Schwab, was appointed to Murdock by the conference session at Ithaca, Ne braska, on May 26, 1935. He and his family arrived on the field June 13th. He was educated in the Murdock High school during his father's pastorate. After' serving Omaha First church for the past seven years, he followed his father's footsteps to the town of his early youth. MRS. O. H. MILLER. Wabash News Fred Towle was vaccinating his herd of hogs. He also found time to make a business trip to Weeping Wat er last Wednesday. The Ladies Aid society of the Wa bash church met last Wednesday af ternoon at the home of their fellow member, Mrs. Frank Ohms, looking after the business matters connected with their meeting and then enjoyed a social hour that was climaxed with the serving of refreshments. L. R. Standley, after assisting with the work of vaccinating his herd of hogs, loaded up what cream he had received and departed for Lincoln, where he delivers the cream and also goes two or three times a week to procure a fresh supply of goods for the store. Ira Helms, who is farming on the Lodge L. Caygill place near Wabash, with Mr. Caygill, shelled and deliv ered their corn, which they have been holding for some time, disposing of the same to Simon Rehmeier, who in turn sold it to some feeders at Sprague and Martell, south of Lincoln, thus being able to spring the market a little. Had Merry Time Sunday At the home of Hobert Hanson, a short distance from Wabash, there were gathered a nunmber of the neighboring families last Sunday and they were entertained by a croquet tournament, at which a very pleasant time was had. Sherman Hardway and wife were over to spend the after noon. Moves to Wabash Again Chester I. Maddock and family, former residents of Wabash, who have been making their home at Friend for some time past, moved back to this vicinity and have settled on the farm known as the old Grimes place, where they' will make their home for the present. They have one child of school age, which brings the enroll ment of the Wabash schools up to eight pupil3 again. Attended Ball Game A number of the baseball fans from Wabash and vicinity were at Lincoln Tuesday, where they attended the baseball game between . .the Kansas City Monarchs, a traveling colored ag gregation and a picked Lincoln team having in its lineup a number of the world series Detroit Tiger players The game was largely attended and a very good one, being won by the colored lads by a score of 4 to 1. All were pleased to see Pitchers Bridges and Rowe and Gehringer in action and say they play a superb brand of baseball. Among those from here to attend were Bert Austin, Leslie Bos worth. John Gerdes. Frank Wilson and Guy Hinds. Enjoyed Visit Together Mr. and Mrs. Harry Hammond, of Davenport, Iowa, who came here to visit with Mrs. Hammond's mother. Mrs. Henrietta Lawton, and with her went to Aurora for a visit at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Greene, have returned to their home in Iowa, while Mrs. Lawton returned to her home in Wabash. Mesdames Hammond and Greene are sisters and daughters of Mrs. Lawton and their visit at Aurora was a most pleasant one. Visiting Friends Here Harry Fargery, wife and little son, Joseph Benjamin, arrived in Wabash Tuesday evening from their home at Fairplay, Mo., for a visit at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Sherman Hardaway, the ladies being sisters. They had left Fairplay that morning and were ac companied as far as Union by Louis Meade and wife, who stopped off there for a visit with relatives, and also by Robert Meade and Gordon Meade, who left the group at Union to continue on to Murray to visit at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Meade, where they will remain through the corn picking season. When Mr. and Mrs. Fargery re turn home they will be accompanied by Mrs. Louis Meade, but her husband will also remain in Nebraska to par ticipate in the corn picking season. Mr. Fargery reports crops as being very fair in their part of the country and that times are some better than they were although still far from be ing back to normal. Here to Attend Funeral Otto Buck, of Beatrice, was here the fore part of the week, coming to attend the funeral of his grandmoth er, Mrs. Nancy J. Buck and also for a visit with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. John H. Buck.
