Dr.. Williams breaches Initial
Sermon Sunday in Central
Union Church Pulpit Il.

Declaring that the name Of Christ
never stood out SO bright as il does

Of war. that darkness and not light is

fiict. J. Fl. Williams. ID, acting min,
lister Of Central Union church, gave
his initial sermon yesterday morning.
to large audience. = !. =. =...-
Doctor Williams chose as his text,
Christ. the same yesterday, today.
and tomorrow" and spoke briefly but
loFcefully on the theme. .~..@.
Christ has presented a different
face TO the different ages, he pointed
out but it has been the same Christ
through all the years. Directly after
the death Of Christ, he said. there
came a great period of theology when
discussions and theological tracts we're
most common. Later came the period
of the dead Christ, when crucifixes,
paintings and chapels all pointed to
the crucifixion. .-
Today people are not 50 much con-
cerned with preparation to die as
preparation to live. 1t is the age now
of the living Christ. ... :.
You and L." he said, are being
called upon to answer whether or not
= the great conflict in Europe. Christ
has lost his grip on the hearts of men.
Il cannot answer it for YOU" said
the speaker. and perhaps you cannot
answer it for me. but can tell you
how the present age appears to me-
IT seems to me that never before has
the figure of Christ stood out as il
stands today in the midst of the
jealousies, the hatred and bitterness
of war. Never man spake like this
man was never so true rs is true now
OF the words of Christ. . ...-.....
We feel that it takes the light to
reveal things to US. but it is not until
the sun has set and darkness Creeps
upon the world that the universe
shows itself to us. So it is to be, |
believe, with this great struggle in
which the countries are engaged. 1t
is against this background that
Christ's name stands in bright let

French fortress and it was here
that he received the injuries
which will likely lay him up for
a time.

A. 1. Gjemre Of the Grow ers
Service of the Fl. j. Hei.z Pickle
com pany has been in the city
during the past week getting
contracts from the farmers for
the growing of cucum bers for
the local pickling station. He
has been meeting with very good
success and it is expected that
the required mum Der of acres
will be secured.
Many of the far mers who are
interested in having this station
continued are going to give the
growing end of the business an
other trial. The unfavorable
season last year, which was
never before equalled in this
region. somewhat discouraged
the farmers for a time but they
are now going to give the cucum.
Der growing another trial.
Many farmers in other locali-
ties have found pickle growing
a very profitable business and
Mr. Gjemre believes conditions
here are excellent for the grow
ing of bumper crops.
A pickle station means much
for the farmers and they should
help out in every way possible
to maintain one here.
Mr.. Gjemre will be in the city
for a time getting contracts or
parties desiring to sign con-
tracts can do so by calling at
the Hansen Furniture Store,
