in the matter of paying off all the
indebtedness and dedicating the

This was made possible by the
drive that was made Sunday morn-

whole amount would be raised. How-
ever, the church officials are very
well pleased with the results and ar<-
confident that the whole amount will

Everybody feels confident that Mt.

So many people went to the Dall-

Belt was forced to run an extra train
to bring them back home Sunday
night.
A special train that took the
Franklin county delegation over Fri-
day and brought them back Satur-
day was brought here to be made in-
to another train and it left here im-
mediately after the arrival of the
regular passenger train in the after-
noon and picking up a number of oth-
er coaches along the line, made up
a heavy train to return with the Fair
visitors.
G. B. Holder, agent for the Cotton
Belt at this place, reports that 126
tickets were sold for Dallas Satur-
day night alone, and a large number
went on earlier trains.

Monday for Dallas, where the lat-
ter will enter the Baptist Sanitarium

A Cancelled Check is a
Legal Receipt
Pay by check is the safe way.
It is the business-iike way.
It is th way of no regrets.
It finishes the transaction.
It eliminates the chance for future arguments.
These are incontrovertible facts that are pretty generally known
to most every one, and the reason more people do not use the safe
and sane plan is one of the usBolved problems of the present day.
And, too, your money in the bank is safe. There is no chance of
it being lost or stolen.
