The Omaha road put on a new time card Sunday, which effect only the freight trains. The Lincoln Journal comments as follows on the new schedule: "Never again for the state railway commission. It once approved a hurry-up request of the M. and O. for approval of a change in passenger train schedules and later found that tho railroad company had cut out the privilege of a stop at South Sioux City, and as a result passengers have been paying the increased interstate rate instead of the 2-cent rate in Nebraska, and the matter is not yet settled. So the commission did not bite last Saturday when the M. & O. filed a few changes in freight train time cards, with a request that it bu approved immedi ately because the railroad proposed to put the changes into effect Sun day. The commission will take its time- to check the changes to ascer tain the result, but in the meantime it is reported the company put the changes in force Sunday without permission of the commission, if this proves to be true there may be something doing in the way of an order from tho commission to rein state the old time card, and possibly a penalty. It is supposed the new time card is intended to Bhorten freight runs to avoid contact with the Adamson law. The new time card contains a change of freights on the Creighton and Bloomficld branches from morning to late in tho afternoon. Mrs. M. M. Ream, of Sioux City, spent Sunday here at tho G. F.

Next Sunday is the first Sunday in May and it reminds us that there are a few very important events sched uled for the month. First is Moth ers Day. We intend paying partic ular'attention to this day again. The second Sunday in May has been set aside for this purpose. Every mother will be invited and we hope to have an interesting and impres sive service. Another important event is the Baccalaureate sermon to the graduating class of the high school. The pastor has been invited by the graduates to preach this ser mon, the evening of May 13th. Then lastly we intend having a "Benevo lence Sunday" the last Sunday in May when we will definitely clean up for the year our benevolent ap portionments. Th week the pastor is sending the usual promise cards to the members. We particularly wish to make it clear that the ap portionments are made on the basis partly of membeship. It is necessary then that every member will contribute and not throw an un necessary burden upon a few. Ev ery member, both adult and child, is expected to give according to abil ity. The average asked of us this year is $4 per member. Kemember ing that many young people are members who cannot be expected to 'give this amount, it is incumbent upon those who can to give liberally, Dakota City had a splendid record last year. Dr. Hollingshead, who is considered one of the greatest sta tisticians of the church, examined our record for the last four years and gave it high praise. Every single item of finance and every sta tistical figure showed an increase over previous years. What, will be the record of 1917? Shall we go forward again? In every depart ment of church work we need a lit tle more intelligent and earnest ser vice before wecan be even begin ning to fulfil our mission. Services will be held at the usual hours next Sunday. Come and worship with us at "The Church with a Welcome." Obituary. John W.
