DR.. Lamkin, Eloquent Evangelist
Continues to Draw--Special
Meeting This Afternoon.

The Cairo Baptist church con-
tinues to be the center to which

the Savior; Take my yoke upon
you and you shall find rest to your
soul" No utterance of Jesus, said
the evangelist, has ever sunk so
deep into the sad heart of the world

of the sermon was Just You and

As he spoke of Gods call to the

multiply thousand times day
There is call for us every hour in
the day and every day In the year.
The splendors of nature combine
