From the Lawrence Daily World for Oct. 3, 1909: “The Union Pacific said today it would double its rail service between here and Leavenworth to see if it is practical and can be profitable. … Local churches generally are planning the most ambitious fall and winter schedules that anyone here can remember. The Lawrence Ministerial Alliance is working to aid the churches with their programs to help bring in the best speakers to be found. The Rev. E.E. Stauffer is manager of the ministerial alliance. “
