1 THE COMMUNITY CHURCH NEWS VOL. 1 FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 1S, 1934 STOW, OHIO NO. 1 MINISTER'S COLUMN This is my first vacation in fiv years. It is my third week inj Detroit. I am preaching every night in the Hazel Park Baptist church. The church i s located three miles from Royal Oak where Father Coughlin holds forth, broadcasts nnd has builded about him a wonderful Bethel and is surrounded by a great following. In the opposite direction, south, it is nine ciles to Cadillac Square, the hub of Detroit. Level, my all about us is level as the floor. Detroit, what a city, the fourth in population in the U. S. We motored over to the city of Jackson one day to a state convention, 78 miles from Detroit. We jcurneyed to Ann Arbor, where the great Michigan State nniversity is located, from ^here they send out some of the mighty football players of all the land. Another da^ we motored across to Mt. Clemens, the widely heralded health resort. I thought I wanted to taste of the mineral water, but the sulphur odor was too strong for me. ' I had the pleasure of a trip to Fort Wayne, a fort distinguished by mighty struggle in the early history of our country. This historic spot, owned by the U. S. government is located along the Detroit river, in what is now the older section of Detroit. It is certainly a strategic location. The fort covers many acres on the peak of a natural elevation of land, that rises probably fifty feet above the level country that surrounds it on three sides, bounded on the fourth by the Detroit, river. The fort is inland from the river a distance of probably five hundred yards. Fort Wayne is sunk beneath the level of the top of the mound. Nothing visible when you approach it save the hill-top. The fort proper may cover a space of four acres. It is honey-combed within with tunnels, the walls of stone and brick are six feet thick, long slits probably five feet high and four inches wide are arranged every few yards for rifle or sharp shooting. On the top of the fort and i at each corner arid midway between are clusters of cannons, hidden completely fronj outsiders view. In the very center of the fort is three story living quarters for hundreds of men. Approaching the fort from all sides you must drop into a great moat that surrounds the fort, probably fifteen feet deep and thirty feet wide. This to me is the most interesting of all American forts that I have visited, even Fort Mc- Henry at Baltimore, not excepted. Here at Fort Wayne soldiers from our original colonies battled with the English for the freedom of our country. It was a strategic spot, struggled for in desperation by CHURCH CALENDAR BIBLE SCHOOL Sunday, 9:30 A. M. MORNING WORSHIP Sunday, 10:45 A. M. ORCHESTRA PRACTICE Wednesday 7:30 P. M.

We spent another day at the Ford village, just outside the Detroit city limits. Ford has built a city and put a fence around it. In the city he has purchased,, moved and enclosed the Court House from Logan county, Illinois. This is where Ahraham Lincoln first practiced law and where he won his first case. A log fire burning in the court house was lit by President Hoover February, and is kept burning perpetually in memory of Lincoln. The Edison "Laboratory building where Edison's first inventions were achieved was moved from Menlo Park, New Jersey and the machine shop, from Florida. In both these buildings log fires kindled by President Hoover is to burn on night and day in memory of the great inventor. Think of it, Edison's entire laboratory, picked up and moved to the Ford Village, and the first machine shop, boiler, engine, lathes, pulleys, all spirited over to the Ford Village. The little red brick school house where Ford attended school, an old inn, fireplace, bar and trapings of the 40's all intact set up in the Ford Village.
