them and acquaint them with the
fact that the Government has reques-
ted that there be no use Of gasoline
on Sunday, except when absolutely
necessary, and remind them that this
is one of the things they can do to-

overlook the fact of all Sundays for
the present being 'gasless" Sundays.

really wanted Christ; if the States
Attorney wanted Him; if any of the
| policemen and other authorities en-
trusted with the enforcement of the
! law and into whose keeping is en-
! trusted the safeguarding of the NOR
ais of the community, wanted Christ;
I if the buSiDeSS men wanted Him if
| the citizens generally wanted Him,
and if the churches wanted Him. The
sermon was one that laid the ground
work for much sincere reflection up
on the part of all classes which he
mentioned, and made a profound i'm
preston upon his hearers.
