MADISON SEMINARY
HIGH SCHOOL:
The World's Greatest Tragedy
AND
' THE LAST GREAT BATTLE
' Baptist Church Sunday Night
jjOurjpgrajn tbig mi')M bea. full and complete one
in every respect"" If you don't believe it come and see. We
have sent for three reels of moving pictures that every man and
woman, boy and girl, should make it a point to see if at all pos
sible for them to do'so.' - .
They make up the last tragic scenes in the life of our
Lord Jesus Christ. In them wo see HIM on trial before Pilate,
the Roman Governor. We see HIM denied by I'eterinsulted by
the mob, crowned with thorns, etc' We see HIM led to Calvarys
Mountain and crucihed. We also see tliM bunea m me tomD,
and then, last, but not least, we see HIM Rising Triumphantly
from the dead. Altogether this scenic production makes a most
solemn and impressive picture one that is awe-inspiring and.
thrilling to the last degree most realistic indeed.
. 'THE LAST GREAT BATTLE," will be the subject of
our Gospel Message. The morning hour , will be devoted to a
study of the "SPIRIT" OF 1776," to our mind a most timely and
appropriate theme, in view of the fact that the GLORIOUS
FOURTH comes next week. All real patriots -those who, in
the true sense of the word, love
far arft most cnrdiallv invited
that we will do our level best to
attend. , , " s
..,1 have often wondered why it is that people will pay
good money for amusement that will only satisfy ' the base
ment of their brains -inspire the DEVIL in them, etc.. In the
writer the DEVIL will oftentimes show up without any coax
ing at all. That is one thing I don't have to pay for-that is, in
dollars and cents "NUF SED" Am grateful for my friends.
Appreciate them to the full. In a sense, am also grateful for my
enemies. Appreciate them also, As a matter of fact, I would
awhole lot rather have theenmity of some folks than their,
frie'ndship.-"NUF SED AGAIN"
Good Luck and God Bless
