Concerning the Rev. G. ID. Drumms
sermon i wish to say; The Gospel of
Jesus is SIMPLY every day life spirit
ually understood. Christ said, How can
you love God whom We have not seen,
If We love not your neighbor whom ye
have seen. The Christian simply uses
his every faculty to the accumulation
Of worldly possessions. We all use them
to the same purpose, as the original
so-called aristocrats used their swords
and spears, to rob the tillers Of the
soil. The rebirth means more than to

Scarcely a comfort we enjoy but is

In proof Of this It is claimed by a
writer of the New York Journal that
$4,000 were killed or injured in the
industries Of the United States in 1906.
You can only forget God by forgetting
your fellows. Search the Scripture.
