AGE SHOULDN'T INTERFERE
WITH DOING GODS WORK

Age should not interfere in the
least with ones doing Of Gods
work" This was the opening sent
ence of the sermon given by Capt.
Nehemiah BrOokes Sunday evening
at the salvation army hall.
Abraham he said. had faith
and trust enought in God 10 obey
the call from Him in his old age
the call which led him from his ma
tive land and his native people that
he might preach the word of Coo.
And So il should be with man today.
No one should be stopped from do
ing good because Of the fact that one
may be old or middle aged. Many
have gone to their graves undevelop-
ed through prejudice on the question
OF age"
In conclusion, Capt. Brookes said:
THE cause Of so much trouble in
the present day is because of lack Of
obedience TO the Almighty God.
Were his word needed more, all evil
would be subdued and assurance OF
heaven. righteousness, peace and joy
would be more certain"

CARRY C0L0RS
ON CARFR0HT
There's Only One Place To
Float Flag Properly
On Your Auto.

Every motorist should display the
stars and Stripes on the motor car.
But there is a right and a wrong way
10 carry the flag. There should be
but one flag Of any one kind on the
car and that flag should be on the
front OF the machine II should never
be placed on the sides or the rear
Many motorists have removed the
flag from its standard and tackled 90
on the rear az the car body Others
stretch large flags over the hood

tire carriers or hang j. on the sides
Of the car The flag should DO- be-
used lu the closed car windows or an
side The headlights Only one f-l-
is ary-ald that one should be-
on tile radiator
The flag never appears at fits best
advantage except when IL is floating
from its standard in an upright posi-
ton and in the most conspicuous place
that can be obtained for IT, That is
why the flag is always carried on
the stern and Ialumast OF the battle
ship Moreover, IL must always be in
plain sight in order that IL may be de-
Tended from Insult or injury.
All seeming rudeness towards the
flag results only from LhOughLlessuess
or ignorance
DO not allow a frayed. soiled or
faded emblem 10 float from your car
when 10 or 10 cents viii replace it.
In other words. exercise fair play to-
wards the stars and stripes, that they
may ever appear at the best advan-
tage and command all the respect
that is their due
If you are carrying the flags Of the
allied nations on the front o. your
car. see that the United States flag
is slightly larger than the others.
With all due respect TO the flaEs or
