; SERMONS
By REV. GEORGE HENRY
„ PUNISHMENT
Punishment—Pain or loss suf-
fered by a person for doi.^g wrong.
That is Webster's definition. Pun-
ishment, then, is not the act of an
angry and vindictive God as some
teach. Suffering is the result of
sinning. "Evil shall slay the
wicked." Put your hand in the fire
and you, will be burned. A delib-
erate act and a natral result. Don't
charge your pain to Gel. Put food
before a hungry man, he refuses to
eat, he starves. Who is respon-
sible? If a sick man refuses the
only remedy *that promises a cure
and he dies, who is to blame ?
Youynust "work out yourown sal-
vation" or you accomplish your
own ""destruction. Some men pray
for relief from physical suffering
"When all they need is an emetic or
a cathartic. As well ask God to
prevent the pain of the surgeon's
'e while refusing the anaesthet-
ic. All the ills that flesh is heir
E
to here and all that may befall a
man hereafter may be traced to his
own action. What is t^'-ie in this
respect in the physical is also true
>in the spiritual realm.

MEN, HERE'S A CHALLENGE
The ministers of the different i
churches of the city will be requested'
to count the men present at their
respective churches next Sunday and
the number reported at each church
trill be published.in the Review next j
■Week. j ;.j{00
It is said their is an idea prevalent
that a greater number of women wiljl
go to church and do the church work I
than men. So this is somewhat of a I
challenge to the men. It will alsoi
give the non-church going men an op-1
portunity to find out that tuey have j
a real welcome and perhaps an incen- !
live to make a return trip. It would j
Sunday there should be more men at-
tend church than women.

A Review reporter was received bv
General Manager Julian Bassett of
the Crosbyton South Plains Railway
at the Company offices Tuesday morn-

the plans of his railroad for the set-

trates and opens to settlement.
"The matter of bringing in settlers
and farmers and settling them in
Crosby county will be taken up as
soon as the road is finfthed into Cros-

"'Public preference sometimes change.
The situation in New York is a good
illustration of what can happen. Thery
brown eggs were at one time all but
a drug on the market. Early in No-
vember, 1927, white egg prices began
to decline and brown eggj, forged
ahead until the latter were soon en-
joying a price advantage ot 8c a
dczen. Since then, there has been
considerable* fluctation. In many
other markets similar changes in one
direction or the other have oeen noted.
Such changes as this are of no lit-
tle significance to poultrymen every-
where. No matter how large or
fmall your flock may be, if you pro-*
