Eldora Church Dedicates Debt Free Edifice
The Disciples or Christian Church of Eldora dedicated a new building last Sunday July 9 costing about 8000 above the foundation. The project was debt free with pledges raised on dedication day aided by Drake University professor Dean Haggard. The two services drew full houses as Dr. Haggard urged sacrifices to complete the funding. The Eldora Lecture Course adds Dr. Robert McIntyre to the 1905 06 lineup at Wisner opera house July 26 with seven events total for 1 75.
