whether he got any impression as

remain in the presidential race.
He replied that “the question of
the president’s future politically
was not discussed.”
Nixon went on to say that “our
primary interest at this time” is
to help bring about Eisenhower’s
complete recovery.

'When the Trumans arrived in

hurt his ankle when he carried
luggage down the stairs in their

tour progressed through France,
Italy and West Germany, the limp
disappeared.

“much interest."
Questioned about Soviet Commu-

“The thing that strikes me is
that one of those men who helped
carry out those policies of Stalin
is the man who is now denouncing
them. I have no faith in the

The new .sanctuary is part of the
church plant which was started in
1852 with construction of a new
educational building.
The church history in this com-
munity dates back to 1869 when
the Holford Prairie Church was
organized in a two-story commun-
ity building which stood where
Old Hall Cemetery is now lo-
cated. A building was erected in
the city of Lewisville on the pres-
ent church site during 1883.
\ BUILT IN 1904
In 1904, a brick building was
erected to replace the original
frame building and it was this
building which was razed to make
room for the new sanctuary, which
was constructed under the leader-
ship of the present pastor, the
Mr. Rev. Gilbert. .
The white brick building, air-
conditioned for year-round com-
fort, is decorated in tones of beige
and rose, the rose tones varying
from the rose beige carpet to the
Fine velvet cushions in the pulpit
furniture Other new equipment,
includes a George Steck console
piano which is used with a recent-
ly purchased Wurlitzer spinet or-
gan.
Chester Boyd, chairman of the
building committee, assisted Mr.
Gilbert in the dedication service
and offered the dedication prayer.
The morning invocation was given
by the Rev. Chales Luck. Denton
County Associational Missionary.
'BLESS THIS HOUSE’
Special music included an an-
them. "Bless This House." by the
choir under the direction of Bob
Harty, choir director.
During the afternoon, the build-
ing was open to friends of the
church who were unable to attend
the morning worship service Flor-
al arrangements were placed in
the building by friends and mem-
bers of the church. The Young
People’s Department, under the
