CHRISTMAS AT THE JAIL
Oh! that big Xmas dinner served at
the Fulton Co. Jail,
That is where / dined, l was unable
to furnish bail,
While myriads of people were run
ming at large unfed and loose
l was dining on big Xmas Goose.
That goose was baked tender, nice
and brown,
| don't believe a finer goose was ever
in this town,
Of course you know the good things
that go with that event
The dressing was made of oysters
Oh Gee, it was immense.
The pumpkin pie was seasoned with
spices all up nice;
The mashed potatoes and gravy then
came into line,
Likewise the cheese and celery, it
certainly was fine.
The fruit cake was fine
With frosting nice and white;
The cigars we got were good ones,
We smoked them with delight.
The bread and butter and sweet po-
tatoes that go with such a din
ner,
The sight of these had ought to cure
the most powerful sinner;
Then came the banana sauce with
cherries and grapes for filing;
All the honor belongs to the sheriff S
wife, Mrs. J. B. McQuillin.
Composed by H. r. Butler.

ELDER J. EDWIN JARB0E.
Last Week of the Revival at the
Church of the Brethren-Five Con-
versions to Date.

The Revival meetings at the Church
of the Brethren will close next Sun
| day night. The services are great
for the upbuilding of the cause of
Christ for those who are christian
men and women and for the unsaved
souls which are many. Last Satur-
day night Elder Jarboe preached on
the "Coin That's Worth an Hundred
Cents on the Dollar" or "The Solid
Coin That Rings True. He held
before the audience a dollar calling
their attention to the stamp of the
United States on it and to all ap-
pearances genuine. But what was to
show that the dollar was not count
erfeit. Oh! But to let it drop on the
rostrum and hear, its true ring was
enough to convince the audience at
once that it was a genuine dollar. He
explained to the audience that (for
the moment calling his dollar count
erfeit) it takes up as much room as
a true dollar and as long as he didn't
need it would do as well as a genu-
inc would but. when the day came
when he would need it then it would
be that it would stand between him
and actual starvation; it would be a
false hope that he had been clinging
to. He then turned the question on
humanity to christian professors to
unsaved souls. He told them that
thousands by multiplied thousands of
people who have their names on
church books will not be permitted to
enter heaven because they were not
true; they may be as the counterfeit
dollar. All may be smooth sailing
until it comes to the test, then their
hopes and their lives would prove
false; they would be barred from
heaven and the result would be eter-
nal damnation. He said he cared not
to what hopes they clung if they
proved false they should let loose at
once and cling to the cross Christ
Jesus.
On Sunday night he preached to an
attentive audience Ga well filled
house) on the subject of Heaven,
showing and teaching them that they
should lay up their treasures in heav-
en- and not on this earth. Matt. 6:
1921. The twenty-frst verse of that
chapter reads: "For where your
treasure is, there will your heart be
also"; not that we should not or dare
not have homes or money but when
we allow even as small sum as fifty
cents come between us and the cause
of Christ then it is that it is sin. If
we become SO wrapped up in making
money and living for self and losing
our interest for the cause of Christ is
when it becomes sin. But let us
rather lay up for ourselves treasures
in heaven. Serving God rather than
the perishable things of this earth.
The services have been very inter-
esting and will continue to be so for
the remainder of the week. If you
have not yet heard Elder Jarboe de-
livering the words of eternal truth
from the Gospel of Jesus Christ to
dying world make it your aim to
hear every sermon during this, the
last weekTo of the revival.
Five souls have shown their will
inginess to accept, Christ as their
saviour. Come out to the services
and bring others with you, you can't
afford to miss them. Remember the
song service and come early. Song
service at 700 O'Clock, preaching at
7:30 every night during the week.

To Thine Own Self Be True.

By thine own souls law learn TO live,
And if men thwart thee take no heed.
And if men hate thee have no care.
Sing thou thy song and do thy deed,
Hope thou thy hope and pray thy prayer
And claim no crown they will not give
Nor bays they grudge thee for thy hair.
Keep thou thy soul sworn steadfast oath
And to thy heart keep true thy heart.
What thy soul teaches learn to know
And play out thine appointed part.
And thou shalt reap as thou shalt SOW,
Nor helped nor hindered in thy growth
To thy full stature thou shalt grow
Fix on the futures goal thy face.
And let thy feet be lured to stray
Nowhither, but be swift to run,
And nowhere tarry by the way,
Until at last the end is won,
And thou mayest look back from thy
place
And see thy long days journey done
