Gospel Of Christ We sent out

paying the return fare.
Come and see for yourself. Truth:
We invite all the Saints to come
and see for themselves. Come full
OF the spirit of truth, and if you
find us in the wrong, we will ac-
cept of the truth and give two er.
rors for one truth. The Prophet
Joseph Smith gave out the truth,
and if be gave anything else than
truth, it will fall to the ground.
President John r Winder, 81
years of age, followed: After in-
dorsing all that the president had
said, he spoke on Temple work.
The work for the dead had so i'm
creased that many had TO be turned
away as the Temple could not con-
tain them. They flocked from all
parts of the Church to do work
for themselves and the dead. Peo-
pie living nearby had to give way
for those coming from a distance.
There never was brighter day
for the Latter Day Saints. All
who accept the Gospel and live for
it, will be saved, those who do not,
will f,il.
President Anton II. Iund said:
We want to be peacemakers Don't
contend against other churches,
unless it be the church of the devil.
Don't contend but reason with all.

Truth. Would you trade the
truth for the good will of manl
President Francis M. Lyman,
President of the Twelve Apostles,
said: Words of Wisdom should be
kept by all, not only those who
preside, but all the Saints of God.
Word of Wisdom is now COM
mandment from God. He has
chosen you, He has planted your
feet here to remain, no enemy ever
did or ever will prevail Gods
work will rise and gloriously pre-
vail. We testify by the lives We
lead. no man can question the man
who lives right
Elder John Henry Smith, of the
Twelve Apostles, said: We would
be most happy if our children
would but fellow in the teachings
of the Gospel, No scheme has
presented such advantages as that
Gf the Gospel of Christ. Contrast
the advantages our mothers have
today to those of olden times.
Elder Heber J. Grant, of the
Apostles, said: That there was
spent annually in the old world
s00,00o,0C0 for liquor, to say
nothing of the great quantity spent
in our own country. All that is
paid out in violation of the Word
of Wisdom is sent away, as but a
small proportion Is manufactured
at home. A lawyer said that out
of sixty cases of conviction of
crime, forty were the direct result
of drink. Father killed son, son
killed f.ther, husband killed wife
or deserted her or cruelty ill.treat.
I'd her. No end of crime and
nearly all traceable to the use of
liquor.

Apostles, quoted; Thou shalt not
live by bread alone, but by every
word that proceedeth from the

should keep the commandments of
the Lord. None have gone wrong
who have followed the Authorities
of the Church.
