METHODIST CHI RCH NOTES
Benj. Kuhler, Pastor
There was a much better response
to church services last Sunday than
some other days. I believe most of
those who attended would agree they
enjoyed the day, too. What a won
derful impetus to the entire commun
ity if all would get the habit of the
Psalmist who said, “1 was glad when
they said, let us go to the House of
the Lord.” The Lord’s day is strong
ly imbedded iti the laws of the land
with arms of protection thrown about
it. It is a corner stone in the founda
tion of American institutions. Sci
ence has agreed that our general
health and welfare demands one day
of rest in seven.
Well, next Sunday we honor Moth
erhood. This should be observed by
the entire family attending services.
We shall have songs about Mother’s
God, Savior, Bible, Church, Home
; and Heaven. And perhaps others.
Miss Grace Liddell will give a read-t
ing. The sermon theme will also be j
appropriate, centering around what1
Motherhood has contributed to our;
welfare and happiness. The children
of the Sunday School will sing about!
Mother’s church and Home.
The evening services of worship
will be held in the Presbyterian chur
ch. Subject, “What Shall We Do
Without Religion?”
We hope all will take notice of the
Vacation Bible School to be held this
summer. Children from the age of 4
years on up will he welcome to at
tend. It would greatly help those or
ganizing if you would give the pas
tor the names and ages of your child
ren who are to attend. We are ex
pecting to have some good help.
NOTICE TO WATER USERS
On May 15th, at all places where
the water rent is not paid, water will
be shut off. No other notice will be
be given. The collector will call and
if you don’t want your water shut off
pay the bill.

We don’t sell Germ-Processed Oil on claims...we just
show you the test results, figured out in fractions...
IT'S comfortable to knew that the oil you are using
will result in gasoline and oil economics. A prom
inent southwestern bus line (name on reejuest) wanted
to know. They put Germ-Processed Motor Oil to the
test in a 25-passcngcr bus. Competent engineers checked
every detail of operating cost
maintenance curing //inn
miles of regular passen
ger service, compar- /
ing the results with
an equal test of
the competing oil.
i
t
When the test ended it was found that Coooco
G erm - Processed Motor Oil had reduced oil con
sumption by 13^ and had lowered gasoline con
sumption by 14.3J&
Such economics are also possible in your car. And
there ate other advantages which soon become evident
to the user of Conoco Germ -Processed Motor Oil, each
