MANLEY A thunder storm passed through dere last week and lightning struck the power house of Mr. Harry Ben- newies and started It fire which the occupants noticed immediately, and by quick action they drenched the blaze with milk which was most con- venient, and in a few minutes they had it under control, and kept it from spreading to the outbuildings. If it had ever got out of control, one of the finest barns would have been de- stroyed but all is well that ends well. The past few fine days gave the farmers a chance to get their root and potato and corn crop in, and with the- rapid growth there may still be a bumper crop. Ilay malting has started and we need fine weather to save it, as the crop is heavy.

COURAGE The need of the hour is courage— a courage that is based on faith. If we lose 'faith we lose c001105e also. God does not promise that life shall be without troubles or without wars, but He does promise, "When thou passest through the waters I will be with thee," and again: "I will never leave thee nor forsalte thee." .How many people aro facing life with a real courage, a courage that will not 'fold up' if the worst comes, a tour. ago that always hopes for the bestI In the worship of the IIonse of God we fits:d our faith strengthened and our courage renewed. After all we are beings with- a spiritual side to our nature which needs quiet fellowship with the Heavenly heather, and that fellowship gives tis courage. - THOMAS E. SCOTT KILLED AT FARGO, N.
