YOU NEED THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. You have enjoyed the fruits of its labors, the profits and benefits of its accomplishments. It is the organization that keeps t1 town pepf ul, hopeful, determined, successful. VV. F.

Harding, Geneial Secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, has been placed on the staff of rne-lius S. Loder and Associates, in Mew York city. The special line is that of hospital organization and They are organized direct or manage spi-tals, general insti.tu-rions and allied interests. At first Mr. Harding will be indemnified with New York office, having charge of the correspondence, the preparation and publication of the pamphlets and booklets needed in deve- loping of hospital.

He is expected to do some field woik traveling in the United States and Canada. This position has sought out Mr. Harding. The call to the field of service Will take him way quickly. He has been with the Chamber of Com-meicein Marion for a year.

The field is comparatively new and is very wide in extent. Mr. Harding enters it after years of training which insures success! His interests will be with Marion for some time to come. Miss Ruth Harding will continue in the schools here. Ever since the town as new Mrs.

Rogers has been directing entertainments musical and theatrical entertainments for church, for clubs, for community in every capacity for benefit and improvement of town and community. And on each currance of these splen did joyable afiaiis the verdict has been me ut-Mi t-ntei una- rnent Mrs Rogers has given 1 L. 1. And- this has been emphezied since the rendition of The New Minister" at the M. E.

church last Friday evening. The caste was composed of Marions best talent and in every way the affair was a decided success, Fifty Dollars Reward We will pay fifty dollars cash re ward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of any person garding the plans of the Board of Education relative to the new High School Building, It will be remembered th 't lastsprng school bonds amounting to $137,000 were authorized by vote of the electors, the money to be used to repair present property and to erect a new high school building. The Board immediately decided to attend to the re-paii work after which the new building Deposition would be taken up. $17,000 worth of bonds were sold and the receipts used to entirely overhaul the heating plant in the Hill Building also to refloor and replaster the buildings through out, to paint the woodwork, repair roofa and to attend to other needs of lesser importance. After the completion of the repair work, a meeting was held with the architect, Mr.

Williamson of Topeka, at which time he was asked to present plans for a high school building, being guided by the local needs as recommended by the superintendent and by the amount of money available for the erection of a building. At the regular meeting held last Monday evening the Board adopted the plans presented with a few minor changes fb be agreed upon. Mr. Williamson will meet with the Board soon to make final plans. It is the intention of the Board of Education to go on with the work if the money available will pay for theplant that is proposed.

She question of site is still being discussel, The proposition of the Board, as published before the election last spring, was to place the building between the Quisenberry and Duncan properties facing Lincoln. Should this plan not meet with the approval of the public, the Board stands ready to give consideration toother aites that may be proposed. J. Poundstone. Santa Fe Policies A new policy of the Atchison, Topeka Santa Fe Railway Company wid be to give special consideration to ex-service men in the employment of new workers, according to an announcement by W.

B. Storey, president. "Further," Mr. Storey says, "if it becomes necessary to reduce forces it would seem desirable, other things being equal, to give the ex-servicejmen preference, and in this-way give practical expression to our appreciation of what these men have done for us." Another Santa Fe policy, which, although not new, has been emphasized since the return of the ra il roads to government control, is to promote from the rarks. The Sai'ta Fe is abie to find in its own organizaf'on men for nearly any position teat may be open, and for ti exceptions there must be a controlling reason which will have careful scrutiny.

In Appreciation For your kindly ministrations and expressions of sympathy during aie recent great sorrcw dear friends we thank you. H. C. Poppe Mr. and Mrs- Wm.

Kahns and family, ATTENTION. The County Teachers Association will meet in Marion Saturday, December 11th, for an all day session in the M. H. S. building.

Federated Churches 'A still insist that we are a Federation of Churches. There are some people who innocently or ot herwise tell strangers in Marion that there is no Baptist church and there is no Presbyterian church. We have insisted and we continue to insist that there is a Baptist church and that there is a Presby terian church and yet while loyal to the denomination in its general work eacn is broad enough to work and with the other and a community church here in Marion. We pro test against people mis-representing us by telling strangers that these two churches have no organization in Marion. We are glad that peo- pie who worship with us can forger.

I J- I a. i i mar. mree seperaie organizations are one in worship and local work. jf you have been gujity 0f tne in excusable blunder above mentioned we invite you to worship with us and see how three distinct organi-1 zations can worship and work as1 one.
