the piano. Miss Anita Storrs,

with the violin.

First Baptist Church.
Everything is ready for the
outdoor services at the First
Baptist Church and beginning
next Sunday, June 2 we will
have our night services on the
lawn at the north side of the
church.
. The laWn is well lighted with
a seating capacity of several
hundred including a choir stand
that will hold our hundred
singers.
My subject next Sunday
night will be entirely too hot to
discuss inside, as there will be
no limit, since the roof will be
out of the way and We have
destroyed the soft peddle.
I will speak Sunday morning
at 11 a. m. on "Why a True
Soldier Would Rather Die Right
Than to Live Wrong," or echoes
from the trenches Sunday night
at 8 :45 p. til. on "As a Result of
War Men Will Be So Scarce
7 Women Will A3k To Marry
One Man and Agree to Make
Their Own Living." This pro-
phecy will be read from, and
proved by the scciptures.
Those easily offended advis-
ed to stay away as this subject
will be handled without gloves.
Miss Colonel Slawson who
sang so beautifully last Sunday
night will again favor us with
another choice selection at the
night services Sunday. Miss
Slawson has a beautiful voice
of rare quality and a charming
personality. Her many friends
who never grow tired of hearing
her sing, rejoice to know her
stay this time Will be perman-
ent. Her selection Sunday
nigt was greatly appreciated by
all and Would have received
much applause had she sang
where hand clapping was per-
missable, some of the children
were so enthusiastic that they
applauded anyway, and I'm sure
that all who enjoy good singing
will highly appreciate this
musical treat when they have
heard her sing next Sunday
night.
Sunday at 2 :30 the children's
choir under direction of Mrs.
woodson will meet. Our next
program will begin on the out-
side of the lawn..

Great souls are not developed
under sunny skies but in the
stormy seas.
Most people are likeable if we
only know them well enough to
penetrate their outer shells. I
Happiness is seldom1 found
along the flowing Way of pleas-
ure, but in giving our best to
others.
A life without love is like
flowers without perfume, and
birds without song.
The Niagara of Christ's love
is the power station of the
world the motive poWer in ev-
ery act of loving service, that
seeks to raise the fallen? to re-
lieve suffering or rid the world
of wrongs.
There are but few things for
wihich a free people will give the
precious lives of its sons and
its hard-won .wealth. We are
showing the world the magnifi-
cent spectacle of a free citizen-
ship surrounding individual
rights and liberties to express
national purpose.
