LENTEN SERVICES AT
 CHRIST CHURCH Rev. F. Johns Bohanan Preached at Weekly Service Thursday Night.

The Lenten service at Christ church Thursday evening was led by Rev. R. R. Graham Rev. Franklin J. Bo- hanan was the preacher and his topic was St. John 1.42.
 Rev. Mir Bohanan compared St. Pe- ter to the people of the present day inasmuch as some of the people, like Simon, did not go out from the shell ter of God Intentionally but more from a weakness of will power. These peo- pie after wandering away from Gods shelter, by repentance, seek to get hack and do so. St. Peter in his early age was locked upon as a weak man, but Jesus saw great possibilities in him. The things in which we take pleasure should come at the hour of worship. God has a way or trying out our will and by the choice we make He shall know how we, are building up. He said we could not expect God to do all for us but He would work in cooperation with us and help us. It is not heaven that gets discouraged but we get discouraged with ourselves and then give up. St Peter instead of getting discouraged tried and became the strongest of the twelve disciples.

CLUB LICENSE LAW FULL OF HOLES.
Places No Restrictions as to Number of
 Hours Clubs May Sell.

The law passed by the legislature of 1915 which authorizes the county com- missioners to issue liquor licenses or certificates to incorporated clubs ap- pears to be full of holes, and if it does nIt meet a worse fate it seems likely rl,slt 1t will receive a thorough revamp- ing by the legislature of 1917. The law places no restrictions as to the number of hours liquor can be sold in clubs, and clubs that desire to do so can sell liquor at any hour of the day and night, and Sundays; in other words -hey give continuous performances in tLe dispensing of liquor. It appears slso that there is no penalty attached to the law for violations and it is gen. erally understood that the penalty for violations are not of much avail. On he other hand, if club as an iRcor- porated body should be found guilty Of violating the laws regulating the sale of liquor, there is no way that the law provides for collecting the pen- atty.
