DR.. DWINELL RELATES
STORY PRODIGAL SON

Continuing his story of life and
destiny at the special services at the
First Methodist church last evening,
Dr. 0. T. Dwinell took up the chapter
on the other brothers sister. He said
in part: I'VE have seen the younger
brother leave home and go down into
sin; we have seen him return to his
home and be forgiven and reinstated,
and we have seen the indignation Of
the older brother and fathers leniency
and kindness. One of the greatest
statements of the parable of the prod
igal son is concerning the young man
when it is stated he came TO himself,
which was not brought about of his
own accord but of forces seen and
unseen that tend to bring one to him
self.
while the prodigal son is a swine
herd he has a dream after day of
shame, day Of WEAKNESS and a day
of hunger, and he dreams that he Is
back in the old home with his mother,
reading him the story of Moses in the
ark in the bullrushes, and Miriam, his
sister, standing afar off watching
This was the story that kept the older
brother at home, but it went with the
younger, and although it did not keep
him pure, he never fell so low but
that God could reach down and touch
him in his dreams and affect him.
This is the story of life and destiny.
In the story of Miriam, which the
younger brother saw in his dream, the
lesson is taught of helping others, of
faithfulness to a trust. the value Of
small services, etc. Women today are
taking the initiative and going out in
dependently and are not simply watch
ing to help a brother. Under the in
fuence of the spirit of God there Is a
possibility for every one to accomplish
great and good thing. 1t is an in
spiration to help people start for the
kingdom of God"

who later made frantic appeal to the

At 5:15 last evening dusty, for
lorn little figure, with tired chubby
legs and the suspicion of tear streak
ing a rosy path down a fat baby cheek,
stood with nose pressed tight against
the window of the Popping bakery,
Sixteenth street and Nineteenth ave-
nue.. All through the day he had wan
dered about at will, seeing many
strange things. But now he was tired
and in his baby mind rose visions of
good things to eat which were his at
home and of a little bed which could
now make itself welcome without even
a little lullaby.
1t was SIS and a worried man in

his desk in the Moline station. He
looked and grew more and more wor-
ried.

All through the day his men had
made search for the little fellow with
rosy cheeks and chubby legs. All
through the day father and mother
fearing for the safety of their boy, had
made search, unrewarded. Then from
the bakery came message to the po-
lice station that little boy who was
lost was there.

mother were made happy again and
