DAKOTA CITY-SALEM
UKV. C. R. Lowi:.
Emmanuel Ladies' Missionary so
ciety will meet at the parsonage,
Friday, May 11, at 2:30.
You do not want to forget the
concert by the State University la
dies at Salem, Saturday, May 19.
Music, vocal, instrumental, and read
ing. These ladies are on a lyeeum
tour and they are at least semi-professional.
You will not be disap
poi ited when you hear them. If
you are you do not need to pay any
thing. It is a pay as you come out,
not as you enter. They come to us
for what may be offered them on
the plates. Salem expects to do the
j-ight thing by them when they came.
VVe all enjoy high class entertain
ment, especially when we can have
it at our own price.
We will have with us on Sunday,
May 27, Rev. Walter, the superin
tendent of Tabitha home at Lincoln.
He will speak to us concerning that
work, caring for the orphans and
aged and helpless. We will be glad
to have him. We have been con
tributing much more than our ap
portionment to that institution and
will be glad to see the superintend
ent. Brother Frank told me he had
seen Rev. Walter at the German con
ference at Papillion and arranged to
have Rev. W. speak at 10 o'clock at
St. John's church and then he can
come over to Salem at the 11 o'clock
hour. It is very convenient to work
together in this way. Rev. Walter
will be at Emmanuel in the evening.
And after all why shouldn't the
churches work together? Does any
one put his particular church before
the kingdom of God? If he does
he ought not and he is narrow. It
is right according to the scripture
to put the church first in the king
dom of God, but a church is not the
church. I have heard men say in the
pulpit that no one could be saved ex
cept through their particular denom
ination, but happily that sort of thing
is surely disappearing in protestant
ism. We are still and probably al
ways will be zealous for our own,
but we are learning to recognize one
another more in our different
churches. If we recognize others as
christian people, why shouldn't we
treat them as such. That is what your
pastor believes in. So strong is it
in him that occasionally some will
tell him he was not cut out to be a
Lutheran preacher. The popular
idea of the Lutheran church is that it
is exclusive, that it claims to be the
only church, etc. That it is too
much so we must admit. Our own
general Synod is at the extreme lib
eral wing, but tremendous outside
pressure is being exerted to "clamp
down the lid." It is a mistake for
us to yield. It is not a matter of
doctrines but of practices. Our doc
trinal basis is unassailable and the
pastor could not preach anything
else. We cling to that tenaciously.
Anyhow the similarities are many
more than the differences and un
fortunately they are what is magni
fied. Miles of good road are enjoyed
and perhaps spoken of, but a single
chuck hole will bounce you against
the bows and make your head hurt,
and you remember that one hole
after you have forgotten the other.
The fact that churches do not get
together is an outstanding fact in
the eyes of the non-church people.
And the church alone can remedy it.
All should have the mind of Christ
toward one another and it should be
so between churches of the same de
nomination above all. One of the
finest things I have heard in my
nineteen months pastorate was the
very favorable comment on the per
sonal and pastoral relations between
Bro. Frank and myself. Here's my
hand, Bro. F. We can't disappoint
ttiat brother. As tne pastors are
toward each other so will the con
gregations be, largely.
And now to practice what is above
preached.
There will be no service at Em
manuel next Sunday evening, but
instead there will be a union service
at the Methodist church in honor of
the high school graduating class in
which the paster will have a part.
This is a good thing.

Telephone Company Hit
Hard by Sleet Storms
The damage caused by the sleet
and wind storm that swept over
western Nebraska the -if tor noon of
April 19 cost the Nebnu.ta Telephone
company more than $40,000, accord
ing to a statement by Vice Pres. and
Gen. Mgr. W. B. T. Belt)received by
Manager O. L. Randall, of this
place.
From Kearney west to the Colo
rado line and nearly across the state
north and south the telephone com
pany had about 250 miles of long
distance wire down.
The afternoon of April 19, about
3 o'clock, the mist and light rain be
gan to fall and freeze as it struck
the wires. Soon the wires were
weighted with ice nearly half an
inch thick. This load broke many
of the wires, and with a rising wind
that night the poles began to snap
off until so many lines were down
that it was almost impossible to get
a long distance call through any
where in the western part of the
state.
As soon as it was learned what dam
age the sleet was causing, the tele
phone company rushed men there
from Omaha and other Nebraska
towns and within 24 hours several
hundred men were at work through
out the storm-swept area repairing
the damage.
Between Dakota City and Sioux
City there were 50 poles broken off
by the sleet storm of March 15th,
throwing out of service twelve of the
most important toll circuits in the
district, where service was tempor
arily restored within 48 hours by a
score of men. The entire cost of
this work to rebuild was approxi
mately $9,000.
