Come one, come all; this house shall be called a house of prayer for all people, as it is written in the word of God, Isaiah, 56; 7, M.tr. 11; 17. The Gtllam Class is about the oldest or among the oldest M. E. class in Jasper county, and we are glad that they have a house to worship in. The way to push the work iorward is to put the shoulder to the wheel. Mr. Lee Nolan will give bible lectures Saturday uight and Sunday, Aug. to and 11.
