The third lecture in the series of Bi- ble talks arranged for by the Asso- ciated Bible Students of this place will be given Sunday afternoon in Buckingham Memorial hall at 3 o. clock. A. J. Eshleman of New York has been secured to speak upon the topic, Will Jesus Come Again?
 With distress among the nations and mems hearts failing them for fear of the things coming upon the earth, B many are turning to the Bible and asking if the prophecies concerning Jesus second coming are not being fulfilled. MT. Eshleman is an earnest Bible student and will present the subject in a manner that will appeal to all logical minds.
 Much interest is being shown in these lectures and the orderly pres entation of the Bible that is being made. The attention now being given to some of the deeper things in the Scriptures is being rewarded by the knowledge given to those who are searchers after the truth. those who are seeking the wisdom of Him "who spoke as never man spakei"
 These lectures are all free to the public and no collections are being taken.
