B. and Evangelical churches last night at the First Evangelical church. Rev. C. J. Roberts preached upon. “Profits and Losjjes.'’ using as his text, Matthew 16:26. “For what is a man profited I if he shall gain the whole world, I and lose his own soul?" Rev. Rob-; erts said, “if you wish to invest ■ your belongings there are a few things you wish to know. You wish to be -ure of the title. You want to be sure of its continued worth. You will want to be sure that it satisfies Earthly possessions arc only leased to us, we cannot have a |M*rmanei)t title. Even science is not sure that this world shall continue to exist. Some planets have been lost during the past several thousand years, and nobody knows what became of them. Material things can never satisfy the soul of man. God promises eternal and spiritual satisfaction to the soul in Christ Jesus, and everybody that has yielded to Him. testifies tp its truth. The services will be held each night this week in the First Evangelical church at 7:30 o’dlock '.uh h*-v-Reverts preaching the sermon. The union choir will sing each night.
