The audience. of men and older boys who attended the meeting atsithe local T.. M. C. A Sunday was much interest," ed. .,-.-s.,..
 : Two reels of moving pictures were shown one showing bird life, and the other picturing Abraham's Sacrifice. the latter was highly Colored; both reels were greatly enjoyed by all
 Several popular hymns were sung, and G. w. Stanton. rendered a solo, Brightly Beams Our Fathers Mercy, much to the pleasure of the audience A feature of the service was the address
 by. Rev. E. A. Legg, who spoke on Our Debt to God. The points emphasized were, first, we cannot comprehend our great debt to the loving Heavenly Fa-
 ther; We owe Him so much, that it is away beyond us; second. though We cannot comprehend It, we cannot avoid acknowledg dging. the debt even the worst l of -men come to see, that God IS good. and that even their very life depends
 upon the Heavenly Father. The third i thought is that we are not exoocted to pay the. great debt we owe to G5i, for 1 that is manifestly impossible. icd wants reverence. obedience, love and companionsllip; Jesus came to show us
 how our debt could be discharged in these ways"
