CAPACITY HOUSE AT REVIVAL

SPECIAL SERMONS BY THE REV. BARBRE DRAW BIG CROWDS A capacity house, six confessions and a beautiful baptismal service were ‘features of the evangelistic services at the Christian church last night. An inspirational song service and a solo by Mrs. Brock preceded’ the sermon by the Rev. Barbre on the, subject “The Three Biggest Fools In Rensselaer.” In part he said: \'3 “I am not going to dall any man a fool tonight but will let the Word of God do that The first fool the bible speaks about is the unbeliever. David said ‘The fool has said in his heart there is no God.'. There is, something sadly wrong with a man who says he does hot believe in God, just because he cannot understand Him. His God would be no God at all. An agnostic- is the fellow who says he knows nothing and gets mad if you tell him you believe it ’ Infidels do not want their children to think as they “Hie second fool is the naan who mocks sin. The wise man of old said ‘fools make a mock of sth.’ But this fellow laughs at you when you tell him that the wages of sin is death. He flaunts the flag of defiance in the face of God and plunges headlong into the deadliest of sins. “The third fbol is the one who trusts in riches. In the story that Jesus told of the rich man who tore down his barns tp build a greater one we find this indictment, ‘Thou fool, this night,thy soul shall be required of thee then whos’ shall these things be?’ This, fool ?is the man who hasn’t time to be christias man who hasn’t time to be a Christian but must increase his earthly I Do With Jesus?" is to be the sermon subject tonight. / “A Convenient Season" will be the subject Thursday night. A large delegation from Brook will attend in a body Thursday night The Sunday school room will be thrown open to accomodate the crowds, Rev. Barbre said. Another baptismal service will be held Thursday night.

KEEP UP A NOISE

while you can. There’ll be a time when you can’t When a man settles down, he’s done. It’s the man of action that wears medals, that makes history, that plays fullback, that knocks home runs, that gets his picture published and a monument when he dies. Dread the day you must take it easy. Action has killed thousands; inaction tens of thousands. ■' The -best preserved people are those used to the comforts of lifegood food .good beds, good, comfortable ways of transportation. No matter which yon call comfort, easy riding or easy driving, the Franklin brings both. You can rest as you drive. And they satisfy by the year as well as by the mile. The only car that can’t be substituted. THOMPSON A KIRK.
