PREACHES ON THE COMING OF CHRIST Wn* Promise to the Apostle* When lladly Needed, No)* F.vangelist llev. J. C. (irlffin lasl night at the Free Will llaptist church preached on "Jesus Coming Again" taking as his text Acts 1:9-11. ??This" he said, "was n promise to the uposiles when It was badly needed. Had It not been given many of them would have gone back to their old occu pation. It will be a visible appear ance as was Ills departure. Ills coming will Im? on time for Clod works on schedule and that is drawing near according to the signs. No man known the day nor the hour; many have tried lo fig ure It out. but have got in the dutch. Hut we do know when the fig tree puts forth Its leaves.

What we need Is more old fashioned, nplrft -filled, con secrated mothers who care more for children than the pleasure of this life.

If you do I'll think 1 am talking about yon." Tonight Mr. Orlffln will preach on the "Worth of a Soul." The public la larltad.
