Coleman Independent: The Beaverton train has been pulled off and now

den with his crew made many friends
here and at Beaverton while on this
run and many people have expressed
their "regret at the calling off of this
gentlemanly and accommodating crew.
It is said in those peculiar circles
commonly known as society, that it is
the "proper thing" to be a little behind time in arriving at a party not
a dinner or supper one. It would seem
that this idea is being carried into
church etiquette, much to the annoyance of preacher, singer and worshiper
alike. There is hardly anything more
irritating than to have a continual
stream of people coming in and being
seated while the services are in progress. It is to say the least, disturbing. However correct this may be in
society it is entirely out if place in
church, Just as well boon j time and
the serice will be better enjoyed.
