All the members are urged to be
out tomorrow being the last formal
preaching services and musical re
cital for the Summer. The church
will close her doors for two months
beginning September oth to October
25th, in order to participate in the
Billy Sunday Evangelistic services.
During these weeks the Sabbath
School will be observed from 9 to 10

hour the regular offertory for the
church will be taken in addition to
the Sabbath School gift. Every mem
ber is under obligation to observe this
essential.

farewell concert for the Summer in
this church. Some of the leading vo
calists of Denver will sing. The choir
will be up to the standard. A spec
ial silver offering expressing the ap
preciation of Mr. Morrison and his
competent corps of musicians will be
taken. We welcome all to the sanc
tuary on this occasion and specially
enjoin on you to come not empty
handed. The time has come when an
oral expression of appreciation back
ed up by a monetary attlbtation is a
far better evidence of one’s faith and
sincereity than otherwise.
Can any citizen afford to miss the
big Labor day picnic? No! Why? Be
