The ladies of the Altar Society and Sodality are preparing for a bazaar to be held on the 28 and 29 of this month as a part of the Thanksgiving festivities. , . Congregational Church Hetioes. One of the largest Congrega tions for many months assembled in the Congregational Church Sunday morning to hear Rev. Upshsw apeak on the "Blessed ness of the Unoff ended". The Young. People's meeting in the evening was largely attended and the discussions over the question box led by the president, Chester SnuA, was very interesting. AH the young people took a very act ive part. , The questions handed in for next Sunday evening are' as fol lows: "Tflhat do the Scriptures teach concerning the heathen who have never heard the Gospel?" , "After judgment are the wicked destroyed and cease to exist, or are they doomed to a punishment ef continuous 'and everlasting tornienU". : - "Should a Christian play any kind of games on Sunday !" "Can a Christian condemn oi reprove one who is not a Chris tian for playing games on Sun day or for any kind of Sunday desecration!' , ' Why should we look up t the Jews?" . . Rev. I'pshaw gave a short tall at the close of the Endeavor meet ing on "The relations of th( Christian to the world." The attendance at the Bibli Study Class last week was the largest since the class was or ganized. The lesson for this week it "The Freedom of the Believers.' Next week "Christ the Right eousness of God" following that we expect to take up the Study of the 'Second Coming of Christ'. This will cover several lessons and will be a very interesting study.

The Sultan of Turkey has grac iously conferred fin the German Kaiser the diamond star of the Iftichar Order, Turkey's highest war decoration, and the Kaiser has decorated the Sultan with the star and chain of the Hohenzol lern Order with diamonds. The honors are even the hero of the Belgian and Lnsitania niur ders honors and is honored by th hero of Armenia massacres.. No one will question the deserving ol the honors or the respective fitness :f the mutual donors and recipi ents. But to tiie intelligence and con science of the world a Liberty Loan button, showing that an American citizen has done his or her part in support of our Gov ernment, is a vastly more honor able decoration than the diamond orders of the Sultan and the Kai ser. It signifies only a simple patriotic duty done; but the dia mond orders stand for colossal in famy and jnurder. n;- Food Conservation Host Vital Ii- lue in Our War with Germany and Success of Our Arms i Depends upon The People Here.

To these must be added its wonderful economy in operation and main tenance about two cents a mile; likewise the fact that by reason of its sim plicity in construction anyone can operate and care for it.

By the President of the Cnited States of America .proclama tion: . ....... . . t It haa long been the honored custom of our people te turn in the fruitful autumn of the year in praise and .thanksgiving to the Almighty God for Hit many bless ings and mercies to us as a na tion. That custom we can foUow now, even in the midst of the tragedy of a world shaken by war and immeasurable disaster, in the midst of sorrow and great peril, because even amidst the darkness that has gathered about us we can see the great blessings God has bestowed upon us, blessings that are better than mere peace of mind and prosperity of enterprise. We have been given the oppor tunity to serve mankind as we once served ourselves in the great day of our declaration of independence, by taking up arms against a tyranny that threatened to master and debase men every- free peoples in demanding for all the na tions of the world what we thee demanded and obtained for ourselves. In this day of the re velation of our duty, not only to defend our own right aB a tion, hut to defend also the rights of free men throughout the world there has been vouchafed to us in full and inspiring manner the Resolution - .and Bpirit of united action. We have been brought to one mind and purpose. A new vigor of common counsel and common action has been revealed in us. We should especially thank God that in such circum stances, in the midst of the great est enterprise the Bpirits of men have ever entered upon, we haw, if we but observe a reasonable and practicable eeonomy, abund ance with which to supply the needs of those associated with us as well as our ewn. A new light shines about us. The great duties of a day awaken a new and great er national spirit in us. We shall never again be divided or wonder what stuff we are made of. And while we render thanks for these things let us pray Al mighty God that in all humble ness of spirit we may look always to Him for guidance ; that we may be kept constant in the spirit and purpose of service; that by His grace our minds may he directed and our hands strengthened ; and that in His good time liberty and security and peace and the comradeship of a common justice may be vouchafed all the nations of the earth. , Wherefore.
