can open them as much or as

DUNKARD BRETHREN HAD
DISTRICT SESSION AT NAVARRE.
Meetings Well Attended and Good
' Interest Maintained. (
Navarre, Oct. 80. This town has
tad the opportunity of entertaining
a ohurch conference, which was, com
pared to tbe else ot tbe town, a thing
of no small Importance. ' The church
of the Brethren (Dunkards) have
Just closed a three days' confer
ence, which represented some ot the
strongest men and women, the active
church workers and delegates, ot that
church from the northeast quarter
of. Kansas, which ll called th north
east District of Kansas Conference.
A strong delegation were in repre
sentation in th meeting throughout,
and the spirit ot the meeting was
tine. The work ot the conference
moved on along three different lines.
1st. The Sunday school convention
which lasted Sunday and Monday
morning. The Improved method
that were suggested and tbe admoni
tions to greater consecration bespeak
an awakened area In Sunday school
work. Our beloved State Sunday
School Secretary and fellow cltlten
of thlefounty was with us to give
suggestions and inspiration in his
own able way. The county Sunday
school superintendent was also with
us.
Monday' afternoon the ministers,
pastors and elders held S ministerial
meeting, an open session, which was
quite helpful to all. Especially th
ministry. Monday evening a strong
missionary sermon was preached by
Rev. J. R. Franti of Beattle, Kan.
Tuesday the district conference
nroner was organised with Elder Geo.
Manon of this county moderator. Thla
conference handles queries and prob
lems of the different churches, 11
also called for our general confer
ence to be held In Topeka or Kansas
City aa shall be decided hereafter
1911.
But to' mention the pleasing and
helpful features of this meeting and
fora-et the hospitality of the neigh
bors and friends as well a th resi
dent member, would be to forget
the one thing that, from a human
al.nrlnnlnt. did most to make th
meeting enjoyable. 80 with th great-1
est of pleasure we present to tne
readers ot th Reflector our resolu
tions of thanks:
"Inasmuch a It ha pleased our
Hoaranlv Father to again permit u
