Ham at the tent this ' morning when he discussed the sub ject of. "The TWO Wrestlings." At the conlusion of the service many were heard to express themselves as being of the belief that the message was the strongest which the evangelist has yet delivered to a morning, audience. Air. Ham took occasion to say some straight things to the church members . of New Bern and the large audiences are beginning to become impressed with the fact that the popular evan glist is not only a great scholar with a marked ability . for imparting his . knowledge to others, but that he is al , so a prophet of God with a tongue of fire for those who compromise and wealfsen God's truths -. s, regarding the Sunday services. At the morbftng hour Mr. Ham will deliver one of his most remarkable" sermon - . lectures "The Trial and" Execution of Jesus Christ From a Legal Standpoint."- A special invitation has been . extended to the members of th'e New Bern bar to attend this service as it will be of particular interest to the legally trained mind.

Henry fame, charac ' lets upon whom he loved to dwell in 'facetious manner, are no moe, but it- has the same "business district," the same four churches and its stone quarry remotely resembling an in dustry. You -will look in . vain for Lithopolis in the railroad time tables but the paling fences on Columbus, South and Main streets do not ba i neighborly conversation. The village's scenic atmospher has chaneed but little in the year that have passed s'nee O. Henry': "Letters to Lithopolis'.' were inspirec back in 1903.: The recipient of these letters war Miss Mabel Wagnalls, whose mother Mrs. Hester : Wagnalls, and grand mother, Mrs. Mary Willis, are buried in the beautiful little cemetery "on the hill on the road out of town." Miss Wagnall'a father, at one t'me a Lutheran minister, is the senior member of the publishing firm that bears his name. Miss Wagnalls now is.'-Mrs- Richard .Jones of New .Vork. Alta Jungkurth, the "tomestone early manhood was admitted to prac tice at the Kentucky bar and, by vir tue of his legal training, is peculiarly fitted to deal with this subject. In the course of his message he "considers the eviden-g: t! t wl? presented against Jesus at the time of His trial and con siders it from the same- standpoint that the jurist considers evidence in any present day case. This sermon is regarded by many as the evange list's strongest message. At the af ternoon service Mr. Ham will discuss the subject VWhat God is Going to Do With the Jew." At this morning's service lie stated that a great many conflicting and. misleading rumors had preceded him here concerning his at titude toward the Jew and he urged that the New Bern public withhold their criticism until they had heard his message and knew whereof they spoke. He especially invites the He brews of th cty to be present and as sures them that they will be treated with every courtesy and consideration. He stated that the sermon would be of especial interest to them if they were at all interested in the history and ultimate destiny of their race. Tomorrow night the subject of the sermon will be "Sowing and Reaping." Continued on page eight). 1 - s Characters At Are Vanishing lady," is in Columbus.
