TO I HURt H iJii AY '° AP ,

PASTORS WILL S P E A K ON AP- PROPRIATE THEMES.

P lans Are Being Perfected to Get Every Church Worker

in the Harness.

"Go to Church Sunday" has been planned for Cass City and vicinity by local pastors for Apr. 19. Each pastor will speak on appropria te themes and they desire tha t every one in the communi ty a t tend at least one church service tha t day.

Among the most popular and im- pressive church movements of this year is t he "go to church Sunday" as observed in many of our large cities as well as the smaller places. With this u n i ~ d effort and emphasis on a des ignated Sunday the people have been t rea ted to the spectacle of see- ing every church crowded and ~n many instances hundreds of the la~e comers unable to get in.

Plans are being perfected tha t will get every ehurdh worker into the harness and it is hoped tha t every stay- a t -home will break away and jo in in the genera l movement . Cass City has a lways pulled toge ther on every wor th while movement and we will be surprised if she does not break the record of any town in the Thumb for percentage of church at tendance on tha t day

SAGRED GO GERT Given Sunday Evening Under Direc- t i o n of Caroline Fenn-Bigelow.

The choir of the M. E. church has had under prepara t ion for several weeks the canta ta , "Cross and Crown .... by Ashford and wilt render it a t the evening service on Eas t e r Sunday. •

This production of one of the foremost writers of sacred rnu~ic of the present day has many features entitling it to a place among best modern music, and from the opening chorus to the last note of praise to the risen Lord, commands the most reverent and pleasurable attention. The composer ha~ ."so interwoven the Prophesies and the Gospels i n musical setting that the resultant harm- ony of wording is only second to that of the music.

The placing of the parts among the full chorus~ ],adies¢ and male chorus, duetts and solos imparts a novelty of arrangement entirely free from monotony.

A cantata of this proportion has never before been presented here and an enthusiastic response is due those who have given their time and attention in its preparation. The choir having subscribed for the recent de- coration of ~he Church will receive the offering .of this service toward tha~ object and the purchase of music. Their friends are desirous of making this offering a token of ap- preciation not only for this special service but for year round faithful- ness to the musical interest of the church.

H. L. Pockl ington writes his wife, who is visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. C. O. Lenzner, under date of March 27 from E1 Paso, Texas, that no one is allowed to cross into old Mexico to Juarez a f t e r ten o'clock at night until Carranza leaves again. All saloons have been ordered closed at Jaurez and anyone caught selling liquor is to be executed without trial. That rule holds while Carranza is there. Mr. Pocklington wri tes as \ follows regard ing a climb up Mr. Frankl in: "The view from the top of Mr. Frankl inn is more than you would ever imagine. We could see Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and Old Mexico. E1 Paso lies directly beneath as you look down. The street cars look like the smallest toys. We watched a train coming m from New Mexico. You can see the f i rs t two stations on the line beyond E1 Paso, and watching the steam from the engine when the whistle blew, it took 12 seconds for the sound to reach us. We were two hours ge t t ing to the top of the mountain and in places we had to climb with our hands as well as with our feet ."

BOOST" .PROHIBITION . POPULA- LATION OF STATE 26,031.

Thir ty-nine Saloons and One Brewery Were Knocked Off Total

in State.

Final r e tu rns from the local op- tion elections in the 12 Michigan counties t ha t balloted on the ques- tion Monday increase r a the r than diminish the m~rgin of the victory gained by the "drys ."

Al though Wexford county which "dz -s" early re tu rns gave to the 'y de-

veloped a "we t" major i ty of 10 which is not likely to be contested, Oscoda, first repor ted "wet" was discovered to have gone "dry" by 116, 66 more than four years ago, and the mar- gin of the "dry" victory in Ingham increased from something over 700 to more than 1,200 majority. The loss of Ingham county which contains the capital Lansing, and was the largest county voting, was the hardest blow suffered by the "wets." That 1,200 "dry" majority will put 44 saloons and one brewery out of business at one swoop.

In Shiawasse county the "drys" victorious two years ago by 503 bare- ly squeaked th rough with 26 major i ty and the "we t s " are ta lking recount and other th ings as a result .

Although the voting Monday, leaves the "wets" and the "drys" un- affected as to the relative number of counties under prohibition and license the swapping of Ingham and Roscom- men for Clare and Wexford cost the "wets" 26,031 in population.

The total number now under prohibition in the state is 790,831 (1910 census) in 33 counties and the number under license is 2,019,342 in 50 counties. Thirty-nine saloons and brewery were knocked off the total in the state Monday. Free Press.

Practically complete returns from Illinois show that 22 counties in that state went into the dry column as the result of Tuesday's election in that state, giving the drys a total of 52 dry counties, one more than half the number in the state.

To watch-please all the people. Some men's work requires absolute watch ac-

Some like solid cases, Others are content with the gold filled.

Some want large models which we have. But no matter W H A T you wish in Watches, it's

here for men, women, boys and girls. It's here, too, at the most for the money.

Better Se'rvice ' Who says the music dealer has gone out of business

because he has quit the store ? Quit his dusting and sweep- ing and waiting for something to turn up. Well, I guess not; all he has quit is that loss of t ime and extra expense. This puts him in a better position for close dealing at all times and prompt service in tuning. Your assistance is needed. Please drop me a postal two or three weeks before tuning is desired, then my work can be arranged so that prompt service will be yours. All work guaranteed.

Remember the good old

Schulz Piano established over 40 years has come to stay and every one that has bought one is highly delighted with their deep sweet singing tone.

Get the Most House-Value Your Money

Everyone who owns a home pays for it "by the year." There is no other way.

The building cost. is the first payrflent Then there is the cost,of repairs every year.

The house that requires ~,~ "~,'~ patching and altering will give you best house-value. The original dollar's worth is worth a dollar longest.

Spend your building dd]ars wisely Buy th+e right kind and quality of building materials.

Then you'll have no regrets, no useless repair expense. Quality does not mean mere "showiness." Quality

refers to the backbone of the materia l~the sound, clear, strong, uniform fiber and texture of the lumber, brick,

• cement, etc. That is the quality youlwant--backbone quality. It

is th<onIy[quality that will insure you reat house-vaIue-- the pleasing, comfortable home that lasts longest at least expense--a daily source of satisfaction and bringing full value if you want to sell or rent.

M. E. CHURCH NOTES.

Topic of the Sunday morning sermon, "Ful lness of Life." An Eas t e r canta ta will be rendered by the choir in the evening service.

The Sunday Schools of both F i r s t church and Bethel will have short misionary programs and special of~ fer ings for missions next Sunday.

There was the la rges t a t tendance a t the Sacramental services las t Sun- day during" the present pas torate . Very many confessed their Lord in this memorial service for the f i r s t time.

The grea t sin of omission of the church today is the neglect to teach the children Christ ian doctrine and give them a thorough knowledge of the Bible. We are doing what we

can to remedy this in the Junior League We have eight teachers at work and some of the children are making" reroarkabte progress. 'The work consists of memorizing the Catechism, Scriptures and standard hymns, v¢ith a study of Bible history, geography and biography. O u r aim is, i n t e l l i g e n t Christians, who are able to g i v 4 a reason for the hope tha t is in them.
