First Presbyterian Church-The
theme of the sermon next Sabbath
morning will be, why be a Chris
tian?" This will be an attempt to
answer the one question uppermost in
the minds OF many people. 1t will also
be an effort to explain the fundamen-
tai things of the Christian life. 1t
is not subscribing to a creed nor ac-
cepting a ritual but 1t is something
practical that makes us descent to our
neighbors kind in our homes and hon.
orable in business. What value is 1t
to subscribe to a creed and then deny
it with our lives? We all have been
guilty of too much devotion to ION
essentials and too little concerned
about practical religion. In the even
ing there will be a popular service
of song with special numbers by the
choir and a sermon on the theme,
What about Kings?" Remember this
popular evening hour. Come and
bring someone with you and thus help
to extend the influence of the church.
A cordial invitation is extended.
