SUNDAY, MAY 4, 1924. NEW PASTOR AT FIRST BAPTIST HURGH TODAY Dr. Louis S. Bowerman Takes Up Charge In Casper. After many months without a regular pastor the First Baptist church of this city today starts. upon another lap of its career with one of the strongest men in that church, ‘The! man is Dr. Louis 8. Bowesman, ‘“ecently of Kansas City, Mo. He will preach his first sermon in Casper today. The Baptists were left without a leader seyeral months ago when the Rev. @. M. ‘Thompson, Jr,, left the pastorate here to take a position in Barbourville, Okla. Since that time many ministers have been con- sidered for the position and it was ally concluded that Dr. Bower- man was the most fitting man for the place because of his excellent business ability in building up churches. This will be an important feature of the work in Casper. Dr. Bowerman is a Springfield, Mo., boy, graduate of its high school. ‘He attended William Jewell and Southwest Baptist colleges, re- ceiving his degrees from the latter, both B. A. and M. A. He is a grad- uate of Newton Theologicai Semi-; nary, Bgston, Mass. Fis fine work in the Randolph church, South Boston, caused the denominational leaders to urge him to undertake tHe “forlorn hope” of the First Baftist church, Seattle, Wash. The property was redeemed,” debt paid, a new edifice erected and paid for, and ddeals and visions given that have resulted in the Present strong organization. His pastorate continued there for six years. - In 1907 he was urged by the home missionary society leaders to under- take the work of the East Side church in Salt Lake Cit t year there was a consolidation with the First church into the present Immanuel church and the entering upon plans of enlargement. The edifice erected is worth $150,000, and is recognized as one of the finest and best arranged in the entire west. Missions were reorganized and new ones started. The negroes and the Swedish people were aided so that when after 10 years of ser- vice Dr. Bowerman resigned to rest for a year in California, there were six Baptist churches in Salt Lake City. One half the entire Baptist membership in Utah, however, was in the Immanuel churgh. e Dr. Bowerman was called from Salt Lake City to take charge of the First Baptist church of Kaj City.

A new church was finally built owing to the efforts of the ‘pastor, While Dr. Bowerman \is justly recognized as having unusual busi- 8 ability, his own people have r in all his pastorates con- fidered his pulpit ability as the out- standing feature of his work. He is pre-eminently a preacher of the word and has always been much in demand for addresses, baccalaureate conferences and revival Dr. Bowerman gives great credit to Mrs. Bowerman for all,fhe suc: cess that has come.

WINTER ‘ON, May 8.—Repre- sentative “Winter has secured a favorable report on the senate reso- lution calling for a report on the Alcova irrigation project at Casper. There is no- possibility of such a resolution going through the house by unanimous consent, as was in the case in the senate, so that the chances of early action in the lower house are still uncertain. In seouring favorable action from the house committee the Wyoming congressman has achieved a real legislative accomplishment, in view & the opposition to the resolution Objection has been made to such legislation, as was in this particular ease, on the ground that the infor- mation called for was already ob tainable in the interior department; that its enactment would'make no headway toward actual taking up of the project. After much personal effort, however, Judge Winter suc- ceeded in overcoming opposition in committee, and in due time the measure will be reported to the house for action <>.

That means the office for it is they who require many weeks of training and frequent instructions to keep them efficient. So now the r rve are a great skeleton army made up of officers and non-commisioned offi- cers, a bout 80,000 in all, The units of this great citizen army are spread out all over the country and the officers are chosen from each local- ity so that if and when war comes, the citizens can be called to the colors and commence their train- ing under skilled officers at once, even while they are living at home. Such a system guarantees that we will be ready to defend ourselves in time and before the enemy can overwhelm us. “The plan of the Nation Defense act also provides gr schools and of training from which to » new officers to replace those on army in of the reserves. ‘Th called the reserve officers. tr corps and the citizens military t ing camps. ‘They are established in many of our colloges and at summer — DEMONSTRATION SALEL A BROADSIDE OF Seasonable Offerings In Men's Wearing Apparel To Demonstrate This Store’s Supreme Values!
