Locate Mutton tallow applied generously 11 kyep knees from crackin'. Some folks even worry over what becomes o' international chess players duriu' a world war.—Abe Martin, Indianapolis News. Mrs. A.

CHURCHES HAVE LARGE AUDIENCES (CONTIMEIJ FROM PAGE ONE) well attended and proved very helpful to Christians. There will be an rfternoon service again Friday but none Thursday because of the funeral cf Gerald Chronister. The sendee begins this evening at 7:30. It will be proceeded by a prayer meeting at 7 o’clock. The service tomorrow evening will be a healing s ervice again and friends are urged to bring their sick, who will be praycd for if they have the faith to trust God for healing. These meetings arc growing in interest each evening. About 25 have been saved in the past seven days and believers have been built up in their faith and Christian experience. Mrs. Tribbetc is a fullGospel preacher and urges every Christian to press on for the greater things God has in Christ provided for his people. Methodist Church “The blessings of salvation come only to those who meet the condl-’’ t ons.’’ Rev. Myron E. Taylor said in his sermon on “Objecting to a Bath’’ last night at the-Methodic-church. “There is a streak of stubbornness iu the make, up of most people,’’ he continud. “It shows itseif in various ways, it shows itself in the one who takes the opposite side 'of every question. It does not matter what s’do you take, they are always on the opposite side. It shows itself in the one who fails to ally himself with the church because of the hypocrites he cays he finds there. So far as hypocrites are concerned, there are some in the church, but if you want to avoid hypocrites you had better accept Christ and join the church; will be associated with the fewest number here and in the world to come, you will escape their presence entirely, for there will be no hypocrites in heaven; they will all be in hell. “Like Naaman, people have a dread disease—the sin disease. Like Naaman. they would like to ba healed of their sins, but like Naaman they don’t want it to be done ; in God’s way. God has implanted in the human heart a desire for salvation. I’eoqde want a salvation all right, but they do not want it God’s way. They do not want to humble themselves before God; break with their sons and accept Christ. “Jesus, thc great prophet, bids you and me come, wash and be dean. Sin in the scriptur is likened unto leprosy. Leprosy is a loathsome disease; sin is a loathsome disease. If we ever get entirely free from sin, and are able to kiok back upon our sinful lives, sin will appear in all of its loathsomeness. Leprosy is a deceptive disease, you can cover leprosy for a while. Sin is a deceptive disease, you can cover it for a time, but it will eat. away at the very vitals of your soul. Leprosy is an incurable disease. There is just one cure for St ajid that is Divine intervention. Sin is likewise incurable. There is just one way to get free from it. and that is by Divine intervention—having a miracle wrought in our hearts. I “Many people say the way of salvation <s too simple. God had to make it simple so that the people in Africa, India and China and other ‘ heathen lands could understand it. Others think of it as being too cheap. I .Don’t think of it as being cheap; God ( paid an awful price for our salvation, but he put it down where the

poorest man could get it. I "It does not matter who we or what our social standing may bo, or ( t how we are connected with the u church, it is wholly a question of t whether or not wo will humble our- , selves before God and kxik to Jesus Christ for salvation.” » The service last night was a bene- i fit to all those who attended. Many ( were at the altar for u deeper conse- , oration. "The Eyes of God" will be the subject of Rev. Taylor’s sermon tonight. The missionary societies wfll be re-L sponsible for the attendance. ~ The men’s prayer meeting will be | held Thursday morning at 9:30 at' the Industrial rooms. The combination Bible reading and prayer meeting will be held at 3 o’clock instead, of 2:30. h Thursday night jvlll be young peoples night. Rev. Taylor will preach on the subject, “The Two Kingdoms or Popular Amusements.” ————-o— ————— CITY ENGINEER FILES REPORT 1 (CONTINVED FROM PAGE ONE) 124 fire hydrants.

C. Feb. 2.— (United 1 Press) —A strange coalition of farm - and banking leaders in. the senate set t out today with a new scheme t j force r action on the McNary-Haugen farm r bill and the Pepper-MaeFadden banking bill. The scheme is to get the farm bill ! before'the senate by motion as soon as the pending milk bill is disposed 1 of and then to bring the lianking bill up as soon as the farm bill is out of i/ie way. ’ Although the farm bloc is opposed to 1 the twinkling bill and She banking bloc 1 is opposed to the farm bill, they have 1 agreed to this invincible coalition so their pet measures will reach a final ; vote. o Claim New Evidence Has Been Found In Bombing Case At Montpelier, Ind. ■ Indianapolis, Ind.

My bowels were so sluggish they would hardly act more than once a week. ‘ My complexion was yellow and I was all run dbwn. My appetite was poor and I had a disgust for food most of the time. I went down to 136 pounds, and my vitality was so low I just had ho pep at all. I felt lazy and wanted to sleep all the time. I tried different medicines and nothing did me any good. Then I a relative recommended Viuna. Be--1 fore I had taken half a bottle I felt better, and by the time I had taken the second bottle I had gained 4 pounds and could eat anything, had a good, healthy appetite and was feeling fine. All that drowsiness was gone and I would get up in the morning full of pep.
