AND HOW TO MEET THEM
Dr. Mcdaniel Third of Series of Sermons Makes Numerous
Suggestions Looking to Improving Conditions.

wickedness destroyed.

Erwin J. Bunkall, stage director of

an excellent comedian. He carried all
the situations in excellent fashion and
interspersed a few remarks not in

Jerome Storm was as attractive,
