why God made flies. bugs, fieas,

Well, my opinion is that He made
them for the same reason that He
made buzzards-namely, to clean up
things. People who keep their beds.
house and yard clean. and keep their
food and garbage covered, are not
troubled with these things. except

STOvALL breaches
ON CHRIST'S COMING
Says People Prove Slow to
Accept Gift of Divine
Love.

Rev. w. o. Stovall. pastor Of the
B3rst Baptist church, preached on the
'"Farst Christmas Gift" yesterday
morning.
Rev. Stova1l spoke Of the motive.
the nature and the purpose Of the
Divine Gift. showing that the motive
was Gods love. when filled with COM
passion for mankind. he gave the
great gift Of his only begotten son.
1.-The nature Of the gift is often
governed by it's acceptability," he
said. 1T Is hard to get people to re-
ceive the gift Of Gods son because
they do not want it. The purpose Of
the gift is made plain in the text,
That whosoever believeth in him shall
not perish but have everlasting life
The gift was given that men might be
saved. The wages of sin is death but
the gift Of God Is eternal life. God
made his great sacrifice because
something had to be done and the
Son Of God was sent that he might
destroy the works Of the Devil"
