 The speaker said John the Baptist would preach the same message today he preached two thousand years ago if he were here; that people hinder God by getting in His way Many children hinder the plans of parents by getting in their way and so many of us hinder God.

Return of Soldiers Begins.

Clyde W. Carter, U. S. Gaa rds
Norfolk, Va, spent Sunday here
on his return to his home at Sunny
Hill, having with him his final
honorable discharge from army
life.
Lieut.. R. E. Simmons from
Camp j. E. Johnston, Florida,
also was mustered out and appears
on our streets once more in civil
ian garb. The boys are being
thrown into civil life as rapidly
as possible now and it will be a
matter Of only few months till
life has again settled into old
grooves with the difference that
the privilege of doing civilian
work will be appreciated more
than ever before, and the syste IN
and routine learned thru army
life will be rather generally applied
to civil duties-with better results
from labor thruout the length and
breadth of the land.
