Wichita, Kansas What is involved in the phrase "Well, doing" as used by the Apostle, "Be not weary in well doing for we shall reap if we faint not." He was teachling the Gallacian people to lend a helping hand to those about them who were weak in faith and not rooted and grounded in love. It is spiritually as it is physically. We are not of the same strength. Some are stronger than others. The strong are expected to help the weak.

We are never so much like Jesus as when we are helping the weak and the needy about us. WICHITA, KANSAS, AUGUST I6, 1906. W. F. M.

S. NOTES. By Mrs. Pollard. The outlook for missionary work in Larned district is good.

Mrs. Rev. Riley of Garden City hopes soon to have the district thoroughly organized. A recent visit to Larned we found an intelligent, capable class of women, all alive with interest and devoted to the work. We met and were entertained in the beautiful home of Mrs.

J. F. Upson, a delightful parlor meeting. Mrs. Rev.

Barton presided. Last week we had the privilege of looking in on the Burns auxiliary. Each month they have an all-day meeting. Mrs. Gidding was hostess for this month.

Fifty ladies enjoyed the fine dinner. At 3 o'clock all gathered on the spacious poarch for the meeting. Burns Auxiliary supported a Bible woman and an orphan, and expect to contribute to the Cora Morgan fund. Preparations are under way for the Topeka branch meeting and general executive, the latter to meet in Omaha. HARRY STREET M.

E. SUNDAY SCHOOL. A few weeks ago we were requested to organize a S. S. at the Harry Street School House, corner of Main and Harry streets, in the 16th block on South Main street.

Wm. Clapper was chosen superintendent. The school has grown till it numbers 100 in attendance. This part of the city greatly needs a chapel as the population is rapidly increasing. Efforts are being made to establish a permanent church in this part of the city.

A very suitable location is offered our board of trustees. Efforts are being made to raise the necessary amount to secure it. The location is on the southwest corner of Main and Harry streets, a very desirable location. It will soon double in value and will be a good investment. We call upon the friends especially in that locality to aid in this good work.

If the lots can be secured a chapel will be forthcoming. Wedding. A pleasant quiet home wedding oecurred at the home of Rev. William Clapper, 1700 S. Water street, on July 11th.

It was the marriage of his daughter, Linnie, to Mr. Adolph Wendell of this city. The ceremony was performed by the writer, the pastor. The couple will remain in Wichita and will make their home at present at the Clapper residence on S. Water street.

Mr. Wendell is the son of the widow Wendell, who lives at 1800 S. Lawrence street, and is an industrious young man. Miss Linnie Clapper is -well known on charges served by her father, as she for several years has been his only house-keeper. Many friends of Bro.

Clapper will join him in wishing his young couple a long and useful life. LADIES' SOCIETY. A division of the Ladies' Society of our church known as the Harry street Division, was planned for last Wednesday at the regular meeting with Mrs. Elizabeth Hughs as superintendent. This division will work in conjunction with the pastor in getting funds for the new mission chapel.

REPAIRS. At our last official board meeting a request was made that a committee composed of the trustees should investigate what needed repairs should be made on the furnace of the church and other needed improvements. A church grows and prospers in proportion as it is missionary in spirit. It retracts and looses spiritually when it lives for self alone. The Epworth convention at Douglas bids fair to be one of the best ever held.

Our leagues should see that they are largely represented. Mr. and Mrs. Hughs' S. S.

classes of the Harry Street S. S. gave a social at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Brewer 1558 S.

Water street, last Tuesday night. About 75 young people were in attendance. Ice cream and lemonade were served on the lawn. About $10 was cleared, which goes into the fund for the location for a new church. NUMBER 7 PLEASANT HOME WEDDING.

Miss Lonie Becomes Bride of Windsor. One of the most pleasant wedding scenes of the season was witnessed last evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Stoner, 405 South Market street. It was the marriage of their daughter, Louie, to Mr.

Frank P. of Claflin, Kan. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. E. C.

Pollard, pastor of the South Emporia Avenue M. E. church, in the presence of about 25 guests. The elegant home was beautifully decorated with smilax and marguerites. Standing under a green arch the impressive ring ceremony united them.

An elegant three-course luncheon was served in the dining room, which was made beautiful by the decorations of green and white. The bride was gowned in white silk and carried a shower bouquet. The groom wore the conventional black. They leave on an extensive trip east. spending some weeks in New York City.

Mr. Windsor is the Santa Fe train dispatcher located at Claflin, Kan. Miss Stoner has many friends in the social circles of Wichita. One new feature of the ceremony was a select reading given by Mrs. Ernestine Pollard Parkinson on the "Little Woman," which was given just preceding the ceremony.

The groom and the minister at the close, of the reading appeared from an adjoining room and stood under an arch of flowers and evergreens, where they were joined by the bride elect. Emporia Avenue church will miss the genial presence of Miss Louise from their midst. They will live at Claffn, Kan, Wedding. It has been some time since the Emporia Avenue Parsonage has witnessed a more pleasant and happy wedding than the one that occurred on saty 22nd. It was that of Dave Freemyer of Wiowa, and Miss Minnie O.

Kincaid of Conway Springs. These people are well known in Barber and Sumner counties. Mr. Freemyer is assistant cashier of the First National Bank: at Kiowa and was one of its original organizers. He has been in the mercantile business for several years.

Miss Kincaid is one of the popular school teachers of Sumner county and holds a first-class professional certificate for teaching. We were pleased to meet these young people and to have the privilege of saying the words that united them for life. Wedding. On July 15th at 615 South Main street, at the home of Mr. E.

L. Reeves, a pleasant wedding took place at high noon. It was that of Mr. T. E.

Bliss of Wichita, and Miss Pearl Robinson of Leota, Kan. A wedding dinner was served by Mrs. Reeves. The few guests present very much enjoyed the occasion, none more SO than the officiating minister, the writer. This couple will remain in Wichita as Mr.

Bliss has employment here. Mr. D. Sherman and wife and Mr. C.

B. Shull and wife were among the guests present. COLLEGE DAY. Our people enjoyed college day held a few Sundays ago. Pres.

Mossman and Prof. Platts preached excellent sermons. The quartette composed of Wellingford, Ebright, Krap and Engar, students of the college, were greatly appreciated by our people. We are informed that $93,000 of the $100,000 endowment fund desired is subscribed. This will give our college a boost that will send it into the future to do still greater work for God and humanity.

A HAPPY SURPRISE. We note that the congregation at Newton gave their pastor, W. A. Burns, a happy surprise by coming in on his family and spreading a bountiful feast in their lawn, after which a purse of $65 was presented to him. This bespeaks the fact that Bro.

Burns is held in high regard by his people. Rev. Dr. Parry has been chosen, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church of this city. We are very desirous to promote the evangelistic spirit in our open air meetings.

Would it not be well to protract these meetings for ten days in succession the first week of September. We will thus get the advantage of the uplift of the state camp meeting. Let our board of class leaders consider this. "How draw on the bank of heaven," "Jesus mighty to save" were the themes of our pulpit last Sabbath. Receptive and believing hearts received the word with joy and pleasure.
