Local Pastor Closing
Two Years' Good Work
Rev. W. B. Smith, pastor of tho
Methodist Church, South, of Ii
Grande, is just completing his second
year of ministerial work in this city.
Ho has spent two years here that
have been marked by very1 pleasing
success for his church, (jie work
llie various ucparuiieius, me auiuiu;
School, Epworth League, grayer jiect
ing anO preaching services having all
grown noticeably and most satisfac
torily. In the Sunday School espec
ially has the waik gone well; the re-J
port this year shows about bJO names
enrolled in the acliojl.
Tho Pnrsonutfc Club, a ver prof-,
itablc adjunct of tho Kporth League
of Christian Kjulcav.or, has been or
ganized us a valuable fentuiv aildiag
to the social life or the young people
in the church. Its seventy-eight mem
bors meet oneo every month on the
first Tuesday. Tho Parsonage Club
was responsible for the purchasing
and remodeling of the school proporty
on Jackson mid North Kir streets nnd
unking it into a very roomy und con
venient parsonage nnd has come out
in the short time it has been in ex
istence free of debt.
Rev. Mr. Smith's church went over
the top in tho Centenary drive, as did
every other church in tho Conference.
The whole church went $20,000,000
over the top. It was tho missionary
secretary of tho Methodist Church,
South, who in 1010 conceived the idea
of the Centenary movement for world
evangelization and called together one
hundred men nt Memphis, Tennessee,
who organized the drive nnd persuad
ed the other evungelicul churcnes of
the nation to come in.
This church has established a very
high moral and ethical standard nnd
expects of its members a life that is
above question. The pastor declares
his church to be no respector of per
sons and to stnnil ready nt nil times
to serve fur the uplift, tho betterment
nnd tho salvation of the people of the
world.

Can you afford to take the ehance of having to move in the winter aftei;
your fuel is all in the dry. Again if you do receive the notice that the house
you arc living in is sold, where are you going to secure another home. You
may say, "Well, if I iian't get a bouse in La (irande I will go somewhere
else." That sounds Oasy, but all of the other Pacific coast towns are just
running over like La CJrande. Again, you do not want to leave, you want a
home right here. Uiok over this partial list; if you do not see it here, I am.
almost sure to suit y6u from my large listing.
