night at the revival meetings being held
at the Broadway Methodist church. At
the evening service DR.. Chappell spoke
on THE Lost Christ" He said in part:

sidered in the struggle of life. The first
Is to get thing and the other is TO

them than ii is TO get them. A man
may lose anything that he acquires in
the realm OF tangible things. We are
living in q world OF gain and loss. We
gain treasures and straight way lose
them. Men and women lose Christ.
Mary, his own mother, lost Him, on the
way home from the passover. And
