One of the guarding angels of the
gate flew over to him and pointing to
three corpulent gentlemen smoking
long black cigars. asks, do you be-
long to that bunch?'
who are they?" asks Kelly.
Why Says the custodian of the
gate, they are munition makers.
Did you say that you are one of
them?"
MOT on your sweet Immortality,
says, Kelly. Il am the guy that only
burned churches and did a little
withdrawing during my so-journ on
the terrestrial domain.
Then the guardian of the gate call
ed winged turnkey to him. "Tell
Pete to fix out a pass card for J.
Kelly, and that he'd better hold the
three munition makers to strict
accountability for their commercial
lzatlon Of death during the years
1914, 1915 and 1916, A. D."
Then turning t. the Irishman:

Evangelist Kirk Speaks to Three LARGE
Conversations SUNDAY

Three large congregations that filed
the First United Evangelical church
heard Evangelist w. N. Kirk Sunday
morning, afternoon and evening, and
several offered themselves to the
service of the church at both the morn
ing and evening services.
Taking CONSIDERATION" as his theme
in the morning, the evangelist ex-
planned that the meaning OF the word
was not a turning from sin to God,
for while there is still sin it is not pos
sfble to consecrate ones life to God.
True conservation for service" de-
clared Rev. Mr.. Kirk, means being
willing to do anything that God thru
the spirit may lead one to do"
Memory" was the subject of the
evening address, and the evangelist
emphasized the idea of memory being
one of the greatest tortures to people
who had at one time sinned. 1.-THE
memory Of lost opportunities. OF neg
lected warnings, of unheeded prayers
and pleadings of mother. wife or chill
dren. is the worst torture that anyone
can undergo" he asserted.
