UNION MEMORIAL
SERVICES HELD AT
CHURCH SUNDAY
Edifice Filled with Audience of Wor
shipers to Take Part in Tribute
to the Soldier Dead.
New Assistant Superinten
dent of Schools Has Arrived
From Monday's Daily
Yesterday the churches of the city
observed Memorial Sunday with a
joint service at the First .Presbyter
ian church that filled that edifice
with a large congregation of worship
ers and the services arranged were
very beautiful and impressive.
The members of the Grand Army
of the Republic, five in number and
representing practically all residing
in the community who are in such
condition of health that they can be
in attendance at such a gathering
were present, and the ranks spoke
f lnnnprtlv nf hfe rav.T"Pi nf time I
with the veterans of 61-65. The
members of the Womans Relief corps
had a very large attendance of their
members, and the American Legion
the youngest or the ex-service mens
organization, had a small delegation
of its membership present at the ser
vice in honor of the service men and
women of the nation.
The invocation was offered by Rev.
II. G. MeClusky pastor of the church.
the scripture reading by Rev. W. R
Robb of the Christian church and
the prayre by Rev. Frank Emory
Pfoutz of the First Methodist church.
During the service two special mu
sical numbers were given, the choir
offering the musical setting of Kip-
lings "Recessional," which was most
fitting to the services of the day, and
the male quartet composed of Rev.
K. G. MeClusky. Frank A. Cloidt. Dr.
R. P. Westover and L. O. Minor gave
in a very pleasing manner the song,
' Sleep Thy Last Sleep," by Parks.
Rev. II. G. MeClusky, in introduc
ing Rev. Robb, who was to deliver
the sermon of the day, stated that
the matter of the place of holding
the services and the speaker had
been left to the members of the
Grand Army of the Republic, and
their choice had been the Presby
terian church for the place Jaf wor
ship and the able pastor of the
Christian church as the speaker of
the day.
The sermon was on the subject,
"The Call to Service," and was tak
en from the text, "He set His face
toward Jerusalem."
In his address. Rev. Robb pointed
to the Savior in his sacrifices for the
redemption of mankind setting His
face toward the holy city, where He
was to offer up His life and to suffer
the pangs of death and sacrifice th.it
those who came after would have life
everlasting. The pastor also spoke
of the spirit of sacrifice that had led
the men and hoys in the dark days
of the Civil war to offer themselves
up on the altar of their country and
leave their homes to endure death
and privation on the battle fields'
that the ideals on which their coun
try was founded might endure and
later how the in en of the World war
had heard the call am! gone forth,
even ? cross the sea to defend the
principles of lbk-rty and equality
and to injure the preservation of the
ideals that the men of ths Civil war
had bought at a dear price for the
future generations of the nation.
Rev. Robb also ur;cd that the
spirit of service be carried out in the
everyday life and the preservation
of the laws and institutions of the
nation and the duty of every loya,
citizen being in the observance by
themselves of all the laws of the
land, and .in this connection the
speaker toughed on the spirit of law
lessness that i3 evident in the coun
try and particularly in the observ
ance of the eighteenth amendment,
that was resented by many of the
citizens and caused a spirit of dis
regard for law.
At th close of the service, the
congregation was dismissed by the
benediction bv Rev. Pfoutz.
