Mrs. Wilford C.

Out of the expresâ€" sions of appreciation and enjoyment which followed the completion of her article, grew â€"a realization that a Woman‘s club was necessary for the stimulation of intellectual and comâ€" munity growth. e . On Tuesday, Sept. 5, 1899, at 2 p.m. (43 years later still the hour and day of meetings) the club was organized with 49 founders. Mrs. Pessenden served as the first president from 1899â€"1904.

A wellâ€" tnown columnist recently remonstrated with warâ€"heroes who pointed to bullets,â€" deflected by pocket Bibles, or, seaâ€"gullsâ€"withinâ€"casyâ€"reach, as an answer to prayer. To summarize his remarks: "Egotism produces such asâ€" surance;" he wrote; "and creates a smallish God who piddles with men‘s trivialities." Which smacks less of self that heart which beats fastâ€" er because of disaster escaped, and thanks ; or the head which ‘knows better," and finds satisfaction in the subtilities? True, men and women are egotists, They need God. ehM Problems have become too great, and all need a Providence who will stoop down low to human need. How close will He come to help you? As near as necessity demands, even up to and beyond the point of death, land Park Woman‘s club will be celeâ€" brated at the club house on Tuesday afternoon, April 6. "Education, home, art, reform, 1iâ€" terature and philanthropy" were the planks of the progressive platform of the charter members, and toâ€"day conâ€" tinue, in amplified form, as important units within the club. For, those who ransack the religious liferature of the world will reach the climax of spiritual thought in this truth.‘ World religions have much of ethical value. In this respect Christianity is not in a class by itself. The zods of other peoples have preached well. But, the apex in religion is that hjm&clnd-nln-dhmxldw&md death. M*md&twwl Test it Only the Bible offers a Creator who is willing to involve Himself in your life to the ultiâ€" Lent emphasizes this unique Christian message. Prepare for the hardâ€" ships of tomorrow by faithfully using the Lenten opportunity of the present. You may have thought of it as quaint Outâ€"moded belief. Others ulate it as doctrinal subtility. Put it down as unique fact. Highland Poark, Hilinois, Thursday, March 25, 1943 God died! We offer this as a simple fact. LCenten Meditation By Rev. H. K.

Four City Elections To Be Held April 6â€"10â€"20 Examination of the contributions loâ€" cally indicates that a majority of the prominent citizens have given through their offices in Chicago or elseâ€" where, without allocating any of their donation to the local campaign with the consequent result that the total contributions here will not be as high as anticipated. It is also apparent that many contributors failed to reâ€" spond according to expectations in spite of the dire need of the American Red Cross this year, and paradoxiâ€" cally, others have contributed more than their share.
