BILLY SUNDAY DESCRIBES
HIS WONDERFUL JOURNEY
THROUGH BIBLES TEMPLE

Billy Sunday has pictured the
oneness of Scripture in vigorous and
beautiful fashion:
TWENTY-FIVE years ago, with the
Holy Spirit as my guide, l entered
at the portico of Genesis, walked
down through the Old Testament art
galleries, where the pictures of Noah
abraham, Moses, Joseph, Isaac, ia
cob and Daniel hang on the wall. ]
passed into the music.room of Psalms,
where the Spirit swept the keyboard
Of nature until it seemed that every
reed and pipe in Gods great organ
responded to the tunetul harp OF
David, the sweet singer Of Israel.
81 entered the chamber of Ecclesi'
astes. where the voice of the preacher
was heard; and into the conservatory
of Sharon and the ily-of-the-Nalley's
sweet scented spices filled and per-
fumed my life.
Il entered the business office of
Proverbs, and then into the ohserva-
tory.room of the prophets. whore l
saw telescopes of various sizes point
ing to lar-olf events, but all conccn'
trated upon the bright and morning
Star. which was to rise above the
moonlt hills Of Judea for our saliva
ton.
"I entered the audience-room of
the King of kings, and caught Wis
ion OF His glory from the standpoint
of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John;
passed into the Acts of the Apostles,
where the Holy Spirit was doing HIS
work in the formation Of the infant
church. Then into the corresponds
enceroom, where sat Paul, Peter,
James and John penning their Epis'
ties. stepped into the throne-room
Of Revelation. where lowered the gilt
tering peaks, and got vision of the
King sitting upon the throne in all
His glory--and / cried:
"All hail the power of Jesus name,
Let angels PROSTATE fall;
Bring forth the royal diadem.
And crown Him Lord of all.

punishmentS."
N c.
Then I'd sentence a few OF the OF
tenders to a most cruel and unusual
punishment. To wit. namely: -Four
hours service at hard labor ut tele-
phone central headquarters. switch
board duty, substituting for telephone
girls. And the honorable court would
90 up to central" himself and gloat
gleesomely over the agonies OF the
conyicts.
" c.
The man who hawls out a telephone
girl is furnishing the innocent for the
sins Of the guilty. Such n fellow
should be denied the use OF the tele-
phone ulril he is bound over 10 keep
the peace.
N c.
Courtesy is the first law Of busi-
ness, as of social intercourse. Why
not be just as courteous TO the tele-
phone girl as to the lady of the linou-
sine? They are sisters under the
skin.
N C.

tears in their voices instead OF

in appreciation of the girl with u tear

Shawnee Morning News


That Chckasha is not going to sit

fact that its Chamber of Commerce

be expended IL advertising. This is
the biggest step forward that Chick
asha has taken in ten years and its

Everyone is agitated about shoes.
The question is whether lniiady is to
wear the new stubby toed French
shoe, or to hold faithfully to her slen-
der aristocratic American last. The
French last in subtle modification is
finally proving a formidable rival of
the long narrow shoe. No longer can

the strictly French last is unbecom-

are charming pair Of beige suede
