M E. Church on Sunday morning,
Nov 26th, and listened to beautiful
sermon by the pastor, Rev. q. r.. Van
natta, who took for his subject:

St. Luke, II chap II and Is verses:
I And Jesus answering said were there
not ten cleansed, but where are the
nine; they are not found that return
ed to give glory to God save this straIl-
ger" He said gratitude is one of the
highest Christian graces. The spirit
of gratitude is in all Gods kindness
first, gratitude embraces thankful
ness; second, contentment; third,
thoughtfuness; fourth, the spirit of ac-
acknowledgement; fifth, hopefulness
True gratitude lives in the soul God
takes what we do for him in proper
4 ton to what gratitude there is in it.
