the reputation among the other
clerks OF being an unfair man to
work with. and In fact. he was d!sa-
greeahle at times. Yet he was a
valuable man to the Arm. and to
have some one work In perfect har-
mony with him was Just what tho
bosses desired. My willingness %
stay an hour or so after the others
had gone to help the manager get

sincere In my work. and even Though

me that my pay was eXceiieht'

A congregation that almost filled
the large auditorium of the Presbyte-

win, to hear his first sermon last
night in the evangelistic meetings
now being held IN that church. His
subject for the evening was God
Three Grips on the Man That is
Down" One of the notable features
of last nights meeting was the large
number of men present. DR.. Garyin
has mellow, pleasant speaking
voice that commands attention and
while his sermon was profound and
deep, his Language is simple and he
does not mince matters in making his
meaning clear. To use his own
words he was not cracking theolog-
ical nuts" but was preaching the
gospel of Jesus, and salvation.
Tonight he Will preach on Does a
