verse OF the 18th Chapter Of 81. John.

count OF the cool weather. Rev. Chas

very forceful plea for the salvation
of the human race as God would have
II. declaring that as Jesus Christ died
for the salvation OF mankind, then
man should take heed and break
away from sin and accept Christ and
through Him receive their eternal re
ward in heaven. Those who heard
Mir. Tally are sure he has never de-
livered a stronger message to Bryan
audience than the one last night. the
large crowd listening most attentive
~ TO every word he uttered Rev.
Tally always breaches well. and last
night he was at his best and preached
with wonderful power and effective
ness.
The services will continue every
