In discussing; with a few business

part of the city for this purpose. Mr. I

Y. M. C. A. buikllTiK, has been se- I
cured, and the hour for meeting will
be, for the present, each, week Thurs-
day at 8 p. m., and .Sunday at 8 p. m.
We want everyone In the city of
whatever denomination, to take Inter
est In this Bible Institute. It Is Inter
denominational, and the purpose Is
simply and solely to search the Scrip
tures. The study of God's Word Is
seriously neglected, and this Bible In
stitute will bo devoted, not to preach
ing, not to exhortation, but to the
prayerful study of the Word of 3od.
"My people are destroyed for the lack
of knowledge, satth the Lord." In or
der to be a strong Christian It Is ab
solutely necessary to understand the
Word. ;
We want everyone to bring his Bible,
and an opportunity will be given, as
nearly as possible, for. each one -to
speak a word. It will be an open meet
ing and we hope the ministers of ths
city will give us their presence and
support. The Bible is the livest book,
we have to-day, and the most -neglected.
It is for this reason that we wish
to emphasize It's study. Please re
