Marshall breaches
Interesting Sermon
On moral Suicides

MIR. Marshall will give a prelude
Onight on why l am Not a Unfair
ian or a U~niversalist." The sermon
will be an some live topic and will be
treated by "a live man in a strong way,
Last night the subject was Moral
Suicides"
The scripture upon which the SER
mon was based is the account of the
four lepors at the gate of Samaria.
Their very position outside the gate
was typical of the sinner. The lepers
were outcasts from the city and their
friends. Sin is always casting forth
the victims. SO soon as the first
flush of the pleasures of sin are past
the separation of the sinner from the
respectable is begun.
Then the lepers were slowly dying
Of their disease. So is the sinner. He
collects his wages little by little I'M
til it is all paid in and separation
from God is complete and final.
Leprosy is infectious and, SO is sin
1t spreads from one to another its
destroying power.
These lepers said one to another,
IF we sit still here we die, If we
enter into the city we shall die there.
Let is go to the camp of the Syrians."
That was the only possible source of
help. They could not help them
selves, their friends could not help
them. The Syrians were the only
ones who could help them. If the
sinner sits still where he is he must
die. If he trusts in man he must
die. too. He must find Jesus Christ
and share in his death on the cross
II he ever finds life. 1t is moral sui
eide to stay away from Christ. Don't
play with time. Tonight it is rapid
ly passing. Jesus will save you.

The Markets
WHEAT TRADE
IS VERY Light

Chicago, Ill, July %. - Wheat:
Trade in wheat was extremely small,
although prices were a little easier.
Rains in the northwest were bearish
factors and returns from many parts
of the winter wheat belt shows larger
yields than were expected. Cash trade
is without feature.
Corn: The market was easier again
today on scattered selling brought
about weakness in oats and the gem
orally favorable weather. The cash
demand is not quite so urgent with
some selling from country. However,
there is no material change in the
situation. Southern reports are favor
able. The market is likely to be a
good deal of a weather proposition
from now on but strength in the cash
market will be a market stabilizer,
and there does not seem to be much
Of any promise for materially lower
prices.
Oats: Crop news has been bearish
this morning. Offerings from the
country were not heavy. but are ex-
pected to increase from now on and
prices for futures are feeling the eff
fects of the outlook. The crop is still
unimpaired with good rains improv-
ing the prospects in the northwest.
Provisions: Offerings were light
today with prices higher as a result
of a better buying demand. Hog re-
ceipts were moderate and prices at
the yards firm.
