In a Moral Rut?
r I.^H E longer you drive a? load of grain

more difficult it is to get out on level
ground. Same "Way with your life.
t .... ... . ... •
If you live by yourself and mingle
socially with no one, you soon get into
a social rut.
Tf you put “the Best apples on top,”
shade every pound of butter a little or
slip by the street car conductor when he
is*not looking, you will soon get into a
dangerous moral rut.
- ■ ^ d, • ! ■
The churches of this town are here
to help you out of both social and moral
ruts. They provide Christian fellowship
and offer the only solution for sin — the
gospel of Jesus Christ.
Religion is the only thing that any
of us will take beyond the grave. Don’t
wait until the doctor gives up hope be-
fore deciding to be a Christian. Make
your life and that of your neighbors
brighter by living Christianity now.
