In the evening a sermon was deliv-

room was filled and the Sunday school

The building is of brownstone quar.
ried from our mountains above town.
This stone is used entirely ou the exte-
rior and the effect is most pleasing.
The frescoing of the interior is in
water colors with lines of gold. The
whole is in perfect harmony with the
interior.
In the main audience room there are
two large stained glass windows. The
windows are memorials and were pre-
sented to the congregation. The de-
signs are elaborate, the colorings rich
and in harmony with the decorations
of the church.

ing into a pocket above, when the oth-
er is shoved down into a pocket be
neath the floor, thus being entirely out
of the way. Comfortable oak chairs
with earved backs are used for the
Sunday school and primary rooms.
The carpeting is the same as in the
main room.
This, the crowning act of the seven
years of Rev. Eisenberg’s pastorate in
this community, was accomplished by
earnest, faithful work by pastor, com-
mittee and members. Too much praise
cannot be given to this congregation
for the interest they have taken in ac-
quiring such a handsome, commodi-
ous and comfortable place of worship.

about his desires. If Mr. Hanna tries
to bluff him by telling him that he
and Gov, Bushnell and Foraker will
see to it that he shall be defeated if he
refuses to fall in with their plans and
goea before the legislature for re<lec-
tion two years hence, he may find
that Mr. Sherman is somewhat of a
bluffer himself, He has already made
one by denying any knowledge of
Hanna's intention.
