Chnrck, Societies, Epworth
.League, Etc.Etc
The Methodist Episcopal church
of this city has made a good record
the past year. Aside from the
regular services and steady growth
of church and Sunday School,
which we all recognize, there is an
Epworth League, an organization
of young people with sixty mem
bers, Who add largely to the spir
ituality and sociability of the con
gregation. They hold a social meet
ing once a month, and a religious
meeting once a week, both ladies
and gentlemen taking their turn
in presiding, thusA fitting them
selves to take the place of older
ones which in time will necessarily
be made vacant.
