open series of meetings in the ar

the peer of evange1ists now touring

recently appeared in the Elyria, Ohio,

"The evangelist is more than meet.

Night after night the people are held
spellbound under the influence Of his
heartsearching preaching. During the
sixteen days of the meeting. Evange
list Violet has never opened the Bi

with it is at once made manifest in
the fact that he quotes chapter after

you will read your Bible and begin
to balance your account with the AL

for the carpet, which Farnham stated
he paid the Mexicans for it. q
A Strange Coincidence
It seems strange that if Farnham
did take this carpet from the house
of Mrs. Regensberg, that he would
place the same on the sitting room Of
his own house. where it could be OBJ
served by the public at all times. as
Farnham conducted boarding house
which was frequented by many peo-

The penalty in case of this char
acter is not more than FIVE years in

The Continental congress adopted
the United States flag on June IA,
1777, and to commemorate its birth
day, it should be the patriotic duty of
every citizen to see to it that Old

Every effort should be made to
have the flag float from every school
house. whether the school is in sess-
ion or not, and from all public build

It has been requested that all citi'
zens should display the flag at their
homes and their business places.
