lowing forenoon.
On Friday evening, November 29,
beginning at 7:00, the annual Father

Do you appreciate the fact that
God has permitted you to live in a
land and under a flag which guar
antees to you religious liberty; that
He has sent His Son, Jesus Christ,
into the world to suffer and die for
you, to be your Saviour and Redeem
er, to take away all your sins and

If you do, then go to church some

McDonald was looking after business
at the store while Eryan was busy
with this work.
The large globes and reflectors

stored during the winter season
when they will not be needed.

Furchases New Chevrolet Coupe
Jess Stoke last week purchased a
new 1936 Chevrolet coupe, which he
feels is the utmost value in motor
cars and is willing to demonstrate
this fact to his friends, by giving
them a ride. The only thing that
puzzles us is he didn't say whether
the invitation was open to all or
just to the feminine friends. Any
how, Jess is a good Judge of motor
car values and seems to have gotten
exactly what he wants.

ing of the wound, which is healing
quite rapidly.
In speaking of the quality of the
corn crop this year, he stated e has
his seed corn selected and thinks
the selection good and that the corn
will surely grow. He will make ex
tensive tests however, before time
for planting and if he finds the corn
under grade as to germination, he
will plant other seed. That is the
best way to determine the matter
for then one will know just whal to
expect in average germination
Henry Carsten says that If care is
used in the selection of seed, he is
sure the Nebraska corn will grow
when planted, but in case of doubt,
he will furnish seed corn shipped in
