The pastor an- nounced that the two deaths just mentioned followed by the tragic homicide which occurred Sunday af ternoon just outside of town had been trying on all and requested that all pray for God's power in the serv ice. He announced that he would not take any text but his message would be based on the book of Malachi. In his message he stressed the duty to tithe and make God first in our lives. The Y. W.
