Database Manager on October 30th, 2004:

This entry represents the installation of a new pipe organ. Identified from the Hinners opus list.

From the 'History' page of the church website, "The pipe organ was purchased in 1926, at a cost of $3,000. Hinners Organ Company of Pekin, IL installed it. With the celebration of Mission Festival, the pipe organ was also dedicated. Prof. Karl Haase from Seward, Nebraska played the organ at both services, and a the special organ concert held in the evening. Many have served as organists throughout the years of worship. Before the organ was electrified, it was operated by hand pumps attached to it. These were concealed by the room behind the organ. Many of the post-confirmation age boys of the congregation took turns to pump air for the organist to operate on. They were paid 25 cents a service."

Status Note: There 1996.
