The Presbyterian Church was
crowded Sunday night to hear Rev.
G. =: Chichester on hia fourth kor-
mon to young men. The subject was
"bad company" The reverend
speaker handled his subject in mas
terly manner, and we earnestly hope
the young men Of town will follow
his advice, especially some young
lads who occupied rear seats in the
church during the the sermon. Should
the same thing occur next Sun lsy
night, we will be forced to use names
for the benefit of Our , readers
These boys ought to pay heed to the
text. EVIL communications corrupt
