sermon based, in part at least, upon
thi life and aels of Abrham Liiuul't.
The Scripture lesson was read ftv>.r
the foil>tu chapter of the tiospel ic
' corning 10 Luk», which contains u I.
rm» i.< quotation from the hook of th<
; prophet Isaiah.
“Jesus came”, said Uev. Cart*
j “to release those who are bond so •
j vant> of sin. Lincoln was hut follow
ing in the foot steps ol his Masue
in 1 eeing his country from the sin of
• traf firing in human chattels.” There
are some things that are always
wro ig wherever they arc committed
! and it matters not whether puhvc
opinion favors them or not. To sc
change the hearts and minds' of peo
ple that they will prefer right, truth
and justice to wrong, falsehood and ii •
justice Jesus gave his three years of
public service and made the supivtn *
sacrifice of his life.’
Lincoln said it he had to go down
to defeat he would go down linked
with truth rather than stand with tlu
majority against it.

to give u* the chance of a trial shipment and we will convince you that
we pay more for fur* and make quicker returns than you can get any

make u* a trial shipment, the result will make you a steady shipper.

WOMAN’S rU’H I’kOVKS

Last week the Member of the Wo*
.nan's club announced that tin* mus
de to be given Saturday night wo- d
be just .1 nit different than tin* usual
entertainment and also would he sort
of a feeler as to the popularity 01 •till.,
amusement. The musicale was an a -
tistic success and it will he haul pm
haps to give another of such merit, .-•>
.he Woman's club set an exceedingly
high standard for their social ev *nt ..
The Odd Fellows hall was crowds I
which m(*aus some thing when i: i*»
known that in many places leading to
the hall the slush was nearly to one i
knee>. Hut everybody seemed well ;>i*>
vnleo with necessary foot gear and
those with wet feet said nothing but
enjoyed it so well that it was after
two o’clock before tin* last dance was
given.
All on the program acquitted them
selves admirable. The little girls from
Miss Kendall's primary g-ade gav«
three distinct dances which were w< ii
recei\»*d and encored, Miss Beatric*
Baughman being the accompanist.
.Miss Mildred Wilson made her debut
before a Seward audience and prov< .1
to be a clever and accomplished oian
ist. Miss Emily Borgen and Miss Wil
ton gave two piano duets, “One th •
race course" and ‘‘The Witches
I’light,” both difficult selections but
well handled.
The musicuie also served to ' Ur
duce SewardU mixed quartette, ?!
ha Bailey, Miss Komig, Mr. Bio.vue 1
and Mr. Lucas. The selections of ’.In
quartette were of high order and me.
ited the generous applause given. .Mj-s
(tnice Towle gave “When you are al1
the Worhl to me,” in her usual pleas
jng voice anil was forced to res pan i
to an encore. Erich Lucas, in his rich,
full bass voice, gave two selections
which were enthusiastically applaud • 1.
Mrs. Ira Bailey, the little woman with
the sweet voice, was heard in two
vocal solos and made a hit. Miss Wil
helniina Bazant, Seward child violin
ist, not only accompanied Mrs. Towle
in her solo, but gave two violin selec
tions, the Serenade by Badini and th»
Cradle song, by Hansir. Both were of
different character but each was play
ed excellently, with expression and th<
little Miss showed perfect techinque.
Mrs. A. 11. McNeer was the accomp
anist of the evening.
Following the program, the floor
was cleared for dancing. Sandwiches
and coffee was served during the • vo
ning by the ladies of thi* Woman’srlub.
The .special committee having the af
fair in charge should feel well pleased
with the success of the entertainment
and worthy appreciation.
