SUNDAY GOOD DAY
At j. B. CHURCH
Attendance on the Services
Larger Than on Any
Other Day.
SCHOOL HAS ADDITIONS.
THREE PERSONS VOLUNTEERED
TO GO OUT AND SECURE NEW
CLASSES FOR THEMSELVES
MEETINGS HELD DAILY.

Sunday was the best day yet in the
revival being held in the U. B. church
The attendance at the preaching SER
vices was larger than at any pervious
meetings. There were seven additions
to the Sunday school and three per-
sons volunteered to go out and secure
new classes for themselves.
Meetings are to be held daily at
2:30 p. m. and 7:3O p. m. Mr.. Shan
non speaks and Mr.. Eward sings at
every meeting.
Mr.. Shannon's Sunday morning
theme was The Displacement of
Evil The text was Romans 1872.
BE not overcome OF evil but over
come evil with good"
The promises are to the overcomers
and not to those who are overcome
We need not be victims but may be
victors. We should be ashamed to be
frequently overcome at the same
point; some things should be settled
forever. We are able to be conquer
ors and even more than conquerors
The more we think and talk of our
weaknesses the weaker we become.
We should build ourselves up, or al
low ourselves to be built up on posi-
tive lines and should declare to our
selves that We are gaining ground ev-
cry day. Doubt flees from incoming
faith. They cannot dwell together
We de not try to deaf with darkness
by any other method but by allowing
light to come in. We cannot shovel
out the dark but we can remove the
hindrances to the entrance of light.
Unkindness Is cured in ourselves and
in others by faithful application of
kindness. The way to overcome the
anger of an enemy is to love him. We
ought to know by this time that op-
pose anger with anger multiplies it.
Sinfulness passes away as holiness
enters. AS God the Spirit is given
sway in our lives self in its hideous-
ness vacates.
No usurper or intruder can continue
to camp out anywhere in the domin-
ion of our being if God is allowed to
work in as to will and to do His pleas
ure.
