Mr. Charles H. Nietert
Among the many laymen on the district, perhaps none are more worthy of special notice than Mr. Charles H. Nietert of Walker, whose face graces this issue. He was born in Delaware county, Iowa, January 7, 1866, and has been a member of our church at Walker for seventeen years. Here he has served in almost every capacity and most faithfully served in almost every capacity and most faithfully and efficiently. A patient, persistant, good natured steward, a most difficult task, an energetic Sunday School Superintendent, Recording Secretary of the Quarterly Conference, for seventeen years connected with the choir where his fine voice has greatly blessed the services, he has made himself a blessed factor in all our church life. During the construction of the new church he gladly gave time and means to his full ability to give the undertaking its final success. He shares in christian work outside his church, being at present president of Grant Township Sunday School Association. In business, he is associated with Hon. H. J. Nietert, his brother, whose munificent gifts and unswerving loyalty to the church has done so much to give Methodism its place and power in Walker. Brother Nietert is most happily married, Mrs. Nietert being a woman of delightful personality, sharing cheerfully all toil and sacrifice with her husband to establish the cause of Christ.
