of Commerce and American Legion,
to preside over the meeting and did
so in his usual pleasing manner and
paid an especial honor to the great
gathering that had brought together i
so many of the church leaders in one crowned hero who had given his life expensive drilling equipment in op
united meeting. On the platform 'on the battlefield of honor" j eration in Cass county he hopes to

pastor of St. Paul's Evangelical
church: Rev. Father Suesser, rector
of the Holy Rosary Catholic church,
and Rev. Frank E. Pfoutz. pastor of
the Methodist church. The chair
man announced that the enforced ab-spne-e
of Father W. S. Leete of the
St. Luke's Episcopal church, had
rrvented his attendance, but was
with the gathering in spirit and rep
resented in 100 per cent the relig
ious thought of the city in honoring
our departed president.
The musical program of the ser
vice was under the direction of Mrs.
E H. Wescott and members of all of
the choirs of the city church were
represented in the large choir that
gave the numbers of the program, all
of which Jad been favorites of Mr.

has stun beauty been shown in the I
rendition of the hymns as was heard
at this torvice where the very best
of all the choirs were participating.
The processional. "Day is Dying in
the West." was beautifully given and
followed by "America" in which the
entire audience joined in the singing
of this wonderfully inspiring patri
otic song. The hymns given were
"The Son of God Goes Forth to War"
and "How Firm a Foundation. Ye
Saints of the Lord." Mrs. Vaunie
Black, director of the Christian
church choir, gave a special solo
number, "Lnve.Divin." in which the
beauty cf this talented lady's voice
was hetrd at its bert.
The invocation was asked by Rev.
Walter R. Robb. the scripture lesson
read by Rev. H. Kottich and the ben
ediftion pronounced by Father M. A.
Shine at the close of the meeting.
The address of the evening wa3
given by Rev. H. G. McClusky and
was a scholarly ami '-icautiful tribute
to ooirw Wilson and the ideals to
which he had dedicated his life and
hi? forceful and untiring service to
his country in its hour of trial ar.d
10 the world at large in the mission
of 'n'.vcr?al peace. In paying hia
tribute to President Wilson, the
speaker said:
"Wilson came to the presidential
chair with a complete equipment of
political knowledge and with a clear
vision of what human Lcings and
human governments ought to do.
President Wilson will ever be known
.as the president of high ideals or the
idealist. This does not in the least
Indicate that he was ethereal and
therefore unproductive of real con
struction. The standards which he
raised, though not accomplished,
many of them, have left their last
ing impression and will stand before
the world in memory leading to a
lifting up of the plane of humac
thinking toward the ideal the di
vine. "Wilson was an idealist but prac
tical in alignment with biblical
truth, filled with Christ-like love'
and inbred with child-like tender
ness and candor.
President Wilson had a great faith
in men. Bcinjr as he was eminently
j free from guile, he was not looking
I for deceit in the hearts of others.
'Thus in this he was often deceived.
He often trusted the kaiser and gave
him credit for being a man of his
word until he found out what a re
probate he was, and when he went
to Europe he had faith that the na
tions of Europe wanted a permanent
peace until he found out that they
did not want what tehy professed
had remarkable presidents. They
have all been true Christian men.
Only two or three mediocre men.
They have been loyal to the nation,
never a one suspicioned of a bribe.

CASS COUNTY MW
IN RACE FOR STATE
TREASURER'S JOB
L.
F. Lanhorst cf Elmwood Seeks
Democratic Nomination to Of
fice cf State Treasurer.
From Wednesday's Daily
Cass county bids fair to have one
of the candidates for a leading office
of the state at the fall election in
the person of Louis F. Langhcrst oC
Elmwood, who has entered the lists
as a candidate for the democratic
nomination for the ofhe of stte
treasurer. Mr. Langhorst has paid
his filing fee here at the office of the
county treasurer and made the fil
ing with the secretary of state at
Lincoln and will therefore be in the
state primary contest on April S.
There are few better men in the
state than "Lou" Langherst, and
certainly there are few men that
have any mere friends than, the Elm
wood merchant who has just entered
the race. For years Mr. Langhorst
has been a hewer of "wood and a car
rier of water in the ranks of the
democrats and served with marked
ability as chairman of the county
and state committees and was at the
helm in the campaign of 1916 when
the democratic ticket made a clean
sweep with few exceptions. His long
business career and educational qual
ification?; fit hiiHv-wKfor the office
of state treasurer and Mr. Langhorst
can rest assured that he will have
the hearty support of the old friends
and associates in tins section of the
state in the race for the nomination
for treasurer.
