"Tile Temple ol' tile Living GimI.''

F. Bowling of Trinity University,
Waxahiichie, at the Presbyterian
church last night, who occupied the
pulpit in the absence of Dr. Fincher
who is conducting a series of services
al Carlton, New Mexico.
The sixteenth verse of third chapter
of Hrst Corinthians was the text used
in which Paftl asks this question;
"Know ye not that ye are the temple
of the living God."
I This is a question that might well
r ause one to take notice. It was ad-
dressed to the church at Corinth
years and years ago to be sure, but It
is a question that is addressed to us
today even with a greater meaning
than to those of that day. Did you.
