for their united stand against the Red
forces in the country.
I Colonel J. B. Kemper closed the
I speaking for the evening and then
i the tlrst reel of action moving pic
tures was run off. The movies were
taken by the Signal Corps, and made
some of the service men feel right
back home again: the pictures of the
destruction of one of our balloons by
a Boche plane were particularly good.
Vaudeville stunts concluded the
I program. It was announced that a
j meeting of Post 27 will be held at the
i courthouse Monday evening to nomi

I Silk Shirts have been especially scarce and hard to
get, that is, good colors and guaranteed fabrics, but we managed to get our
big share for this occasion by taking them in and paying for them months ago. We have been
preparing for this "Shirt Festival" for many weeks, but we are ready now to serve you with
the choicest quality and most beautiful blends of colorings for your holiday purchases.
Can you think anything more acceptable than a gift of shirts? I
It would be hard to find the equal in value of the shirts we have this year. There will be more
"Shirts" presented as gifts this Christmas than any past season —they are becoming more popular each year I
because they are so useful and practical.

Council did not permit this, accord- !
ing to the Rev. Mr. Schmidt, but
United Lutheran Church constitu- .
lion does not mention it at all.
When asked whether he eonsider
i id this difference as a serious one,
j the Rev. Mr. Schmidt made the pre
diction that quite a few Lutheran
churches formerly of the General
! Council will likely demand the ad
dition of the clause to the United i
j Luthc .'an constitution, and if it is ;
i i.ot passed and included then these j
chinches will withdraw.
The Rev. Mr. Schmidt was called j
j by the defense to testify in support
I of the Itev. Jonn Henry Miller, pus
i tor of tho Holy Communion Lu
theran Church. The Kev. Mr. Miller
| M f.tercay made a number of expla
' nations of the differences in the con-
I stitut'ons of the United Lutheran
Church and the General Council.
.According to prominent Lutheran!
cii rgymen from Pennsylvania theo- j
■ logical seminaries the Holy Com
j munion Church is the only one in |
I t'.e lountry which refused to be- I

come affiliated with the United Lu
theran Church when it was formed
merging the General Council,
General Synod and United Synod in

('•at they may be called to the wlt
