Will of Rev Rogers Leaves Braceville Estate to Wife and Daughters
The last will filed in Ottawa court details Rev John Rogers of Braceville leaving about 30 000 in real estate and 4 000 cash to his wife and daughter Leota under conditions. The daughter is to receive a Minnesota farm on paying 160 a year without reuniting with her former husband who wasted 2500 of the estate. The will also allocates 120 acres at St James and two other farms to sons Otto and John G with specified annual payments. The 4 000 is kept in trust for interest with income to the wife. The text ends with a verse about a gossiping telephone girl and its imagined mischief.

The Significance of Divine Names in Christmas Sermon
The Rev L G Landenberger preached on The Significance of the Divine Names of the Lord, arguing Old Testament prophecies of the incarnation are fulfilled in Jesus Christ. He labeled names as descriptors of quality, tracing Elohim and Jehovah to Jesus and explaining titles like Messiah Christ and Son of God or Son of Man as revealing divine nature in human form. He noted the prophecy that the Child would be called Wonderful Counselor Mighty God Everlasting Father Prince of Peace, and tied it to salvation through Jesus.
