(Farming for God* Makes Profit
————— <
By MRS. N. D. ICKES, SR.
The Frontier’s Feature Writer
The young adult Sunday-school
class of the Page Methodist
church began a “farming for God”
project April 8, 1954.
Under the leadership of the
teacher, Harley Kennedy, 44
acres of oats and sweet clover
were seeded that day on the
Glenn Harris farm northeast of
Page.
During the noon hour, a service
of dedication of seed, soil and
sowers was conducted by the pas
tor, Rev. Lisle Mewmaw.
On May 21 the group both
planted and listed the remaining
56 acres of rented ground, thus
completing the first stage of their
cooperation with God for an oats
and corn crop.
Various members of the class
cultivated the corn as it was
needed. The problem of cutting
cockle burrs in the cornfields and
the stubble was met at various
times with a lunch of homemade
ice cream and cake.
More than 600 bushels of oats
were threshed August 9 for their
share. They were stored at the
Harris farm. About 300 bushel
were donated to the harvest fes
tival and sold November 2.
Over 1,000 bushels of com as
their share was picked November
20 and stored at the Harris farm
and sold to Rollie Miller. The
grain was delivered March 17 and
18.
* This completed the farming
project.
“The splendid cooperation of
the men with their machinery
made short work of each opera
tion,” according to Reverend
Mewmaw. , '
The wives furnished the food
and took turns serving the work
men at the noon meal at the Har
r i s home and at the Marvin
Stauffer home when it was incon
venient to do it at Harrises.
The class has not made a final
decision as to the disposition of
their earnings but expect to put it
to good use for the work of God’s
kingdom.
Tentative plans are being made
to carry out a similar project this
year.

Visiting Chorus,
Banquet Top Week
Monday Full Day at
Inman High
INMAN— Monday was a busy
day at Inman public school. The
Nebraska Wesleyan university
male chorus, under the direction
of Leonard Paulson, presented a
program in the school auditorium.
Mr. Paulson’s a capella group
was well - received by the audi
ence of school children ’and vis
itors. The program included
“Stout Hearted Men” by Rom
berg; “March of the Musketeers”
by FYiml, and Barnby’s “Give Me
Your Tired, Your Poor.” Probably
the most popular selection on the
program was “The William Tell
Overture” on the hamionica by
Toshiro Isa. Second in populartiy,
at least with the younger set, was
a bass solo by Carlyle Weiss.
Monday found most high
schoolers and members of the
sixth, seventh and eighth grades
at the Inman Methodist church
annex where the annual athletic
banquet was held at 7 o’clock.
About 120 turned out to eat ham,
enjoy the program and listen to
a speech by Coach Jack Hughes.
Band members are practicing
for their Friday night spring con
cert. This concert will serve three
purposes. First, it will give Inman
parents a chance to enjoy the
band again; second, it will be
practice for the music contest at
O’Neill, which the band has en
tered; and third, it will raise
money to help pay the expenses
of the band at the music contest.
Band Director Leonard Sawyer
says he feels the band has made
real progress for the short period
it has been in existence and should
make a fair showing at the con
test.
A capacity crowd turned out
Friday night for the senior class
play, “The “Night Owl.” Prin
cipals in the play were Don Kel
ley as James Gray, a successful
producer; Vicki Hutton, an au
thoress; Shirley Butterfield, the
maid; Ron Wolfe, the caretaker;
Richard Sobotka, a private de
tective.
Other players were Bob Rei
mers, Sharon Cunningham and
Linelle Tompkins. The plot re
volved around Vicki Hutton’s at
tempt, as the authoress, to find
inspiration for her new play and
the efforts of her visitors to help
her. The production was good for
quite a few laughs.
