In common with othe

His private and pnbli
life has been clean and re

His advice , his time an
his money has been freel
given for the success c

He is a personal friend c

Special meetings are being he !
at the Presbyterian church , con
ducted by Evangelist Rev.Vm
H. Kearns , D. D. , of Beatrice.
Dr. Kearns possesses the pei
sonal advantaged of having bee
an active and successful pastoi
and of starting upon the work o
his present appointment in tin
vigor of matured manhood. H
started as overseer and evangelis
the beginjing of the new yeai
having received his appointmer
from the Presbyterian board t
look after the interests of ai
Presbyterian churches in N (
braska under the care of th
board , as well as to see to the oc
cupying of new fields now d (
manding churches.
Therefore it behooves the cit
zens of Valentine to stand by thi
special effort of the great Boar
of a great church through Re\
Kearns , to place the congregatio
in our town on a firm basis finaru
ially and spiritually for fully p i
forming its responsibility in buik
ing up the best interests of th
town and community.
It is your enterprise and welfar
is at stake.
Everyone knows that a towi
known for its church going qual :
ties is a town where there is th
least extortion in business , an
the most safety for the young an
the greatest comfort of all.
And the church-goer must k
up to the proper standard.
Rev. Kearns is a magneti
speaker , easy and delightful t
listen to and no one can fail to b
encouraged and inspired to see
his life's noblest undertaking.
We took him over to the hig
school Wednesday morning whe.r
he urged the pupils to do thei
very utmost to reach the marks c
Heaven's high calling.
Next Sabbath evening it i
probable the church auditorial
will be filled to overflowing , bu
many extra seats will be provided
Next Tuesday , at the closin ,
service , it is hoped the busines
places will be closed between
and 9 in order for all to attend.
Some topics yet to be sookei
are "The Final Judgment , " vlTh
Second Coming of Christ" an <
"The Unpardonable Sin , "
