The spirit manifested at the picnic is evidence tht the church is grow- ing and striving for better and great- er things for the future. Prince's lawn was the scene of much activity along the time for feeding. The races and games were he‘d in Downers field, a total of twenty of these were indulged in. varying fmm childrens to grown folks and novelty races. An "elopement" race caused much hilarity, it being indulged in by six couples, unpacking. packing and dressing in the quickest time. An indoor baseball game between the married and single men resulted in a 10â€"9 win for the married tellers. The Congwgatiunal church and Sunday school held their annual pic- m'c last Saturday- nn the Prince lawn on OakWoorl avenue and in Don-net’s field adjoining. It marked a high water mark for the congrppntimual folks in that it was the largest and most successful picnic ever held. Starting in the forenoon, it ran un- til dusk with never ceasing activity and life. Over 200 members and fliends of the church attended. “CONGO’S” PICNIC LAST SATURDAY A HUGE SUCCESS The mam-0‘s dopaflmem will be‘ own lnmr than it was: Inst your and. main- of (hr Mt halter! of "w \‘ir- inity aw mm looking 0“?! thrir m-i igw bunks “it?! lhv miu‘ mom-y in: New.

PASTOR ADVOCATES “TWILIGHT" CHURCH BASEBALL LEAGUE In so far us this plant has been in actual operation, the practital prob- lems of opt-ration were freely discus- sed and methods of possible impmwu moms explained. The trusu‘ox of this plant were more than glml to explain everything which the visitors dflfiiml to know. The village of Toulon has had a seu'am‘ disposal system‘such as is mntvmplated here. in sumosl‘ul oper- ation for six years, The trustees find that this plant is still in excellent condition and functioning porfvctly. The plant now being completed but not yet in operation, at Earlville is an exact duplicate of the proposal plant how. The trustees gained much from the inspection of this plant, in regard to cost, problems met and pos- sible improvements. The Trustees of the Downers Grove Sanitary District. aceompained by Engineer Otto and Attorney Bunge made an extensive tour Tuesday in- vestigating several flewnge disposal plants, similar in plan of operation to the one to be installed here. Earlville and Toulon Sewage Disposal Plants Scrutinizedâ€"wMIny Improvements Sew How many times: have you heard soâ€"called business men say that? Several, we'll wager. And did you ever notice the kind of business places the same men try to adver- tise? Prices high, usually; stock piled all over and not in shnpe; poor service; rotten salesmanshi ; dirty stores, as a rule; no thou t of accumulation; etc, etc. In it any wonder that advertising does not pay them?
