They also wish TO express their ap-
probation of all past favors granted

slues your CHRISTIAN dead WlIe, were
all members of the Old Second church.
But what about these young men who
are looking up to you rs an example!
Dare you and will you be responsible
for their lives? Dare you refuse to
publicly confess Christ and turn these
young mems minds toward the cross,
which is the source of all your
strength Tears began to well up out

Wear the Gospel Armor.
In all the history of the Second Pres
bvterian church there never went forth
greater religious influence than on
that day. In the bank, over the coun-
ter. on the street and in the home hun
dreds of men were saying: Have you
heard the news? Mr. So-and-so has be
come a Christian. He joined the church
last Sunday" And from that one NOR
al Christian mans action of publicly
protesting Christ in the church l be-
lieve hundreds of young men were

suppose that while you are outside or
church fellowship you can really help
the women who are laboring in the gos-
pei! DO not be a lessian or one who
is fighting for American liberties when
YOU are not an American. BE born
again. BE Il Christian church member.
Place your name in big black letters
upon the muster roll of the church. AS
a Christian, wearing the gospel armor
and fighting under the gospel standard,
throw your whole soul and heart into
this Christ struggle against sin.

with an eight-inch trackway on .
