The wealth of the world was
created by labor, ^'he ships, hous
ed munition, wiaring apparel,
food, men, wagons, trucks, guns,
and ammunition, and whotever
was used for anj’ purpose what
soever, and when it was destroy

It was in the newspapers that

that a necessary expense?

It was altogether cprrect in
places, but I heard loud and bois
terous singing at Pleasant Hill
Methodist Church, where all de
nominations met and joined the
sing.
Those Pleasant Hill meetings
were from 1858 until 1880, that

I have been wondering if the
change in religious affairs are due
to refinement or ’to a lack of
warmth of religious zeal? The
change is not an improvement.
There is much more enjoyment

sooner or later. It is coming sure.
None of us have any idea of the
