Rev. Culpepper took for his text
Matthew 3:2, Repent ye, for the
kingdom of heaven is at hand" He
declared that he had never known
preacher who stood for anything
who did not preach repentance.
Some few people have got to heaven
without dying, none have ever got
there without repentance. He de-
clared that he was desperately in
earnest. That his whole life was be-
ing burned out for his fellow men.

John the Baptist was a preacher
of repentance declared the preach

came out to hear him, too He just
said, repent, repent, repent. He de-
clared that his hearers would not
stand for the kind of preaching that
John the Baptist did.
Sam Jones was a preacher of re-
pentance. Some one asked him how
he knew he was converted and he re-
piled that he was there when it hap
pened Sturgeon, Gypsy Smith,
Billy Sunday were all great preach
ers of repentance. The preacher de-
clared that whenever you find a
preacher who does not preach repent
ance you will find a preacher who is
preaching to empty pews.
A great many people think they
can buy their way into heaven. But
they can't do it. That is not repent
ance. Then the preacher said that
he was going to join everything that
was good. He wanted all the good
of every church, lodge and other or
ganization.

said Rev. Culpepper. Neither good
or bad, neither yes or no, just "yaas."
Repentance is getting off the devils
train and getting on Gods train.
Then he gave a most vivid illustra-
ton of what he meant by that.
Repentance is not remorse When
ever you say you have been such
mean man that God can't forgive YOU
you are rejecting on God. Repent
ance is recognition of God as an
authority and deep-seated purpose
to obey in every relation of life.

Brazil GIRL RELEASED
UPON BOND OF $500
HOUSTON WOMAN HELD TO
GRAND JURY ON CHARGE
CHILD MURDER.

The coroner's jury sitting on the
case of Lena Brazil, charged with the
murder of her child, held at Houston,
returned verdict charging her with
numbering her infant child. She was
held without bond until today, when
upon agreement between the prose-
cutting attorney and her lawyers she
was granted bail in the sum of ST.
500 by Judge Linebarger.
Miss Brazil testified before the cor
oners jury last Thursday that she
did not give birth to a child at Little
Rock, and her mother and brother
testified that she had not brought an
infant back with her.
Saturday, DR.. Hinkle, who is con-
nected with the city hospital at Little
Rock, identified Miss Brazil as the
woman who gave birth to a baby at
that institution on January, also that
the woman said she had chance to
give the child away, but would keep
it.
Mrs. Brazil, mother of the accused,
testified that Lena confessed to her
that she had given birth to the baby
and had given it to a woman in a
hotel at Little Rock; before she left
the baby died; the woman she had
given the child to refused to have
anything more to do with it; that she
Miss BraziD did not know what else
to do with it, so she started home
with it; being ashamed to take the
child home to her people she placed
the body in a cedar thicket, and that
dogs found it and dragged it to view,
and an investigation led to her ar
rest.
Thus the case rests until the grand
jury thrashes out the hidden truth
(if It's hidden) of this sensational
version of what appears to ba hid
eous crime.-Bigelow Citizens Press.
