Dear Mr. Editor: I wish to record my sincere ap preciation to the people of Cave I City Junction for the wonder way y in which they responded to the 1 suggestion that we men in one day finish the Cave City Commun ity Church. It is incredible that at this holiday season, difficult as it has been, all the people carry- ing on business on Main street without a single exception re- sponded favorably, And the 18 men who gave freely of their time and ability should be noted and appreciated likewise. The following is the list of con- tributors—folks for whom I most naturally cherish the highest ap preciation and I wish through you, Mr. Editor to convey to them my ever growing regard: G. W. Martin, Paul Newland», Lloyd Lewis, C. L. Schumacher, Paul Hein, Robert Rout, Forbei Slayton, Art Drews, Blake Miller, r. C. Y. Arnold, C. A. Jones, M. C.

Mr. Lawson, the super intendent builder of The Friendly Mission, has the plans in hand and will see that the Cave City Com munity church building will be finished at the earliest possible moment. In this wonderful Christmas gift of the people of the commun ity to the village church a notable deed has been done, and 1 thank them each and every one. WILLIAM A.
