Methodist Church Notes. Notwithstanding tad roads, fair sized congregations greeted" us at both services last Sunday. Of course many faces we usually see were missing, but there was little question as to "why?" this time. But nevertheless they were misled. And as some of the workers were among the missing ones, there was extra burden on some others. How well the places were filled is not a question for us to answer. Considering the conditions, the t nina j-amine Kenet oflermg was very gratifying. A little more than nity uciiars was sent to this cause as a result. This makes an even seventy dollars that have been sent to this cause by this church and Sun day school. ' Why not make it a hundred? A good many have not been heard from! Though not under the auspices of the church, we are looking forward to the e"nterta inment by the Nebras ka Wesleyan Glee Club next Wednes day night. We think all will re member the splendid entertainment given by this company a year ago, and smrely all who heard them then will want to hear them again. It is a matter of gratification to us as Methodists that these are from our school, and also that the manager of this club is a member of this church. We want to encourage them and the school as well. We hope to be able to do so in a substantial way ere long. The Busy Workers will meet on next Wednesday afternoon with Mrs. Ost.
