Major problem is cars refusing to start
A major motoring problem during cold weather is the car that refuses to start on a Monday morning after sitting idle over the week end, according to the Chicago Motor Club. The motor club advises drivers who don’t use their cars on winter week ends to go out and start the auto several times during this period.

His model prayer "The Lord s Prayer," was very concise and straight to the point — yet on careful study that prayer is so profound. Acknowledgement of God s supreme power, living life one day at a time, surrender to His perfect will — all of these are elements of Christ's prayer. How is your prayer life? Are you in time with a loving, sensitive. Heavenly Father? Can we help? • Buses Running Every Sunday 1# • Bible School Hour — 9:30A.M.
