Subscription Pries, S2.CJ psr Year "Sandstone Center of the World" E- TO BE SEPTEMBER 25 IS DESIGNATED FOR A OENERAL RALLYDAV—WAS ARRANGED BY COUNTY SUNDAY SCHOOL ASSN. "Home Coming Sunday" for the churches of I.oraln county has been designated by the evangelistic committee of tin1- county church federation for next Sunday, September 25, and will be observed In most of the churches throughout the county. The program of the evangelistic committee of the federation for the, season of 1920-1921, one of whose events In "Home Coming Sunday," was unanimously endorsed by the county ministerial association at an all-day out-of-doors meeting held Monday at Lake Views Park, in the city of Lorain, The program of the evangelistic committee does not bind any ot the cooperating churches to observe any special days or follow any general plan. Every church is free to plan its work In the way best suited to Its situation, but it affords dates and ways for general observance and united emphasis Insofar as the individual churches can participate. The experience has been that most churches will be able and will desire to follow the suggestions of the united program. A united program gives the work of the churches a more Important place In the life of the community. "Home Coming Sunday" is designated as a general rally day and go to church Sunday. The county Sunday School Association has proposed their general fall rally day for the same time. Many churches and Sunday schools will have special exercises and features In their services. Larger lntereat, it has been found, is shown in the rally day in each church and Sunday school when it is being observed in the other churches and Sunday schools of the same community at the same time. The ministers of the county at their meeting on Monday devoted their time, to a consideration of evangelistic work this fall and winter. The emphasis in evangelistic activities this fall la to be placed In tho Sunday school, leading up to a dedication day on December 18. An addreaa upon the general plan of federated work wbb given by M. C. Pearson, D. D., executive secretary of the Detroit Council of Churches, and another address upon the same theme again In the evening to members of the Lorain Council of Churches of the city- of Lorain. The conditions of present-day life demand united action upon the part of the Proteatant church forces, was the declaration of Dr. Pearson. This united action he did think required organic unity of the churches, at least at present. Indeed, he thought It quite likely that different kinds of churches would always be needed. But community programs and community co-operation in church work was imperatively needed at once. The challenge for united action, Dr. Pearson found to exist In the great unchurched masses of the population In every section of our country, and to exist also In the industrial, social, educational and International conditions Of the present day. A council of churches, the sneaker stated, was as essential to the efficient work of the churches In a city, aaj» chamber of commerce was to the business Interest. I Officers tor tbe county Ministerial Association were elected as follows: L. C. Orant of Lorain, president; A. A. Hunter of Amherst, vice-president; Charles H. Hauger of Lorain, secretary; B. C. Peck of Avon, treasurer.

I noticed that he was driving on the left-hand side ot the road and that he was swaying from side to side on the seat of the motorcycle. When he passed me I spoke but he did not answer. I thought that I would watch him because ot his peculiar actions. As he was going down the hill the side cur was off of the ground when he mude u shurp turn. He made several of these turns and I begun to think that he wus trying to do some stunts or perhaps looking for some fault In the actions of the mo-1 torcycle. I begun walking again uud just happened to turn around when 1 ' suw the motorcycle leave the road und ' .hrow Itelsing down the embankment. 1 hurried over and picked him up. When I touched him he began to moan with pain. I then asked him If he thought he was hurt very badly and eh only muttered he didn't think so. M ibis time he began lo have u wild •tare iu his eyes, so 1 picked him up in il .-.lopped a passing machine, which look him to the hospital." Hospital attaches are of the opinion that heart failure wus the causo ot his losing control of the motorcycle. He lived only a short time after reaching the hospital. Mr. Raising Is survived by a wife, two children, a mother and father and one sister of Lorain. Mr. Reislng had been in business In Amherst for several years und was well known among Amlferst people.
