Mr. Hall was born at Anamossu,

early days, where he resided for sev

Three unmasked men entered the
bank at South Sioux City last Thurs
day afternoon about 1:30, and com
manded tho cashier, Geo. J. Boucher,
and two customers, Chas. E. Ketter
and George Rummel, to put uptheh
hands, which they did, when they
looked down the long barrels of the
bandits' revolvers. The robbers then
locked the three men in the vault of
the bank, gathered up what money
was in sight about $1,400 and made
their escape in a speedy looking au
tomobile which was awaiting them
around the corner south of the bank.
Mr. Ketter, one of the customers
who happened to be in the bank at
the time of the hold-up, was relieved
of $80 which he had brought in to
deposit.
Officers took up the trail of the
bandits, but lost it after tho men
left West Point, Neb., where they
stopped for gas. Tho proprietor of
tho garage there suspicioned them
as the robbers and sent a man out
for the sheriff, when the bandits
became suspicious and hurriedly left
the garage after obtaining only three
gallons of gas.
The bank's loss was covered by in

Lutheran Church Notes
By Rev C. It. Lowe.
The pastor was surprised n couplo
of days ago upon opening Ills mail to
find there an appointment to the
secretaryship of the synod to fill tho
unexpired term of Rev. G. N. Men
dcnhall, who has left the synod and
gone to a congregation in Iowa.
Synod will meet the 8th of October,
so tho term of incumbency will not
be very long.
tlio pastor was absent at Omaha
Monday of last week. Some got the
idea that ho had gone to Auburn to
visit and come homo with tho family
who were there visiting, but such was
not the case. Ho was ubsont In the
work of tho church. The United
Lutheran Brotherhood and the gen
eral benevolence committee of tho
United church desired n mooting with
the benevolence committee of the
synod looking forwnrd to tho work
of next year. The pastor is tho
chairman of that committee of tho
Nebraska synod, and his absence was
in connection with this synodical
work. There Is too much work at
home right now to bo away visiting,
and our place is here. Returned
Tuesday morning.
The congregation at Homer have
paid their full apportionment for tho
year, and there is an excess, the ap
portionment of the Dakota City
church will be paid in full by tho
time this appears in print, as will
tho Solemn quota. This is as it ought
to be. The treasurer of the Salem
church has sent letters to those in
arrears with self-addressed and
stumped envelopes nitd It is hoped
that the returns will be general. It
will save a lot of work by tho coun
cil if the friends will look to this
matter. ihe returns to uate are
very pleasing, indeed.
I have said that our apportionment
will lie larger next year, and have es
timated it to bo a GO per cent in
crease. The reason for this is that
because of tho merce of the churches
the church demands tho entire timo,
of one man for president, he has to
resign his work or secure a leave of
absence for the period of two years,
and of course ho lias to have u salary.
Then again, thero is a thing that
should never have beon necessary at
this time, that is the taking up of
some work wo ought to have taken
up at the very beginning, namely,
general home mission work. Tho
pastor remembers when ho was rath
er instructed to look un the Luther
an people and when ho had dono tills,
o good deal of his work was gone, ho
was not to look after the evangeliza
tion of those not connected in some
way with the Lutheran church tho-it
was remote. Of course the direction
was hardly as bald as that, and it
was not a direct instruction, but it
seemed to be the nollcv of tho
church, ono which wo did not ngreo
with. Why should not tho Luthoran
church not do her part in tho evan
gelization of Americans who have
never had any church affiliation,
thero arc plenty of them? Thoy need
the gospel as any others. Wo have
become known as an exclusive church
not affiliating with the other denom
inations. Personally, we do not liko
that sort of a reputation, but thero
need, lie no surpriso if wo havo it.
Now wo are to got out of that rut,
and we say "Glory Be!" I would
dislike as an individual, to bo known
as a man who cared for but a few
people of my own and had no inter
est in others. All of tho men in
the Lutheran ministry havo not had
tho idea as above outlined, and that
has saved us. Now we aro to got
out of that, it will ho worth tho
money. And it will tako money.
Then, further, thero will bo tho Ital
ian Missions in America, and tho
wor.k is brought to us by some of the
other denominations because our
methods and ways aro moro accepta
ble to these folks; then there are ne
gro and Jewish mission work to bo
done; thero aro now fiolds of foreign
mission work demanding attention,
work which must bo taken up simply
because wo are big enough to bo
counted on, and wo must do It. A
big healthy man who won't work
ought to bo put in the Work house,
and a big healthy church that won't
work, well, God removes tho "candle
stick" therefrom as wo explained last
Sunday morning. The power wanes.
Tho Lutheran church is tho fastest
growing church in our country to
day, and we will havo to tako our
placo in tho world's work.
Every man of tho Lutheran church
ought to bo glad for all this. Ho
ought to feel a personal responsibil
ity in it, and know that ho has op
portunity to do some carrying of
tho gospel, for it is true thero is
little carrying in any other way. No
ono should think it is a burden that
ho is being bled for something that
does him no good, that it Is beggary
I.
of the church. God Is no beggar,
this whole bottom is his, and all the
land that surrounds it is his. Christ
h not poor that ho should beg from
any man. Wo that boar his namo

M. E. Church Notes
''Rev. S, A, Draiso, Pastor
Although tho weather was threat
ening Sunday morning, tho rainy day
brigade was out for Sunday school
in numbers moro than fifty, These
aro tho children who keep up tho
record of tho school aid mpke 't an
institution of worth and iuoccss.
Como next Sunday and be in tho
sunny day crowd.
Tho program of the church Is al
ready being launched in the Omaha
area. A meeting of the loaders is
called lor October 13th and 14th at
Des Moines, to formulate plans and
campaigns. Following that meeting
will bo tho district meetings, and
then the charge will begin positive
movements. This is to bo a great
year in Methodism. It will bo n
testinir year. Wo will all turn out
ourselves if we get in the ranks this
year. Tho watchword is "Evangel
ism." Compared with last year ?
program of raising the Centenary
financial quota, this is really tho big
undertaking. The second step in
the Centenary idea of saving tho
world. Who, now, will bo a good
soldier for Christ and will prepare
to go "over?" You nro called to ro
ister. Como to Christ.
Another result of the Centenary
idea of last year is tho movement
among other churches. It is called
tho Inter Church World Movement.
Seventy denominations and societies
aro already co-operating in it. The
surveys aro already started and will
bo completed beforo Christmas. Tho
results of this movement will bo bet
ter service for tho unchurched com
munities nnd fewer churches for the
over churched communities. Somo
churches will be closed others opon
