WHY DOES COD PERMIT EVIL. There will be an Interesting service

Sunday, March 2nd, at 3 p. m., at the

K. of P. hall, over the Lion store, Ham

mond. Ind. The International Bible

Students' association has made ar

rangements for Mr. C H. Swingle of

Chicago, Bible student and lecturer, to

give a series of four lectures. The object of these lectures Is not to estab

lish any denomination orsect, but to

stimulate Christians and others to a study of the Bible and to gain a clearer

Insight into God's holy word. The first

lecture will be Sunday, March 2nd. 3 p. m. . Subject: "Why Does God Permit Evil." This problem has been discussed as widely as any subject under

the sun. Preachers of all denomina

tions and speakers of national and In

ternational fame have discussed it

from he rostrum with various conclu

sions more or less unsatisfactory. Men wonder why an all-powerful, all-wise, God permits such a terrible reign of

sin and. death without apparently any hope of relief. In Sunday's lecture Mr.

Swingle will show why God permits

evil and its world-wide blight.. He

will show why a God of love, justice.

wisdom and power permits present

conditions. In fact, we can readily see how the Bible is consistent with Itself from Genesis to Revelation and proves that God is love.

The public is cordially Invited.- Seats free; no collection. K. of P. Hall, over the Lion Store,, Hammond, Ind. i.
