CHRISTIAN CHURCH

We wish to again call the at
tention of the public to the evan
gellstlc services at the Christian
church conducted by Rev. Thomas
r. Shaw, of the Christian church
of Atlantic. When we made our
announcement last week we were
without any personal knowledge of
MIR. Shaw's ability in the evangel-
istic field. Since that time we
have seen, and heard, and think
that we know that we can say to
the public unreservedly, that here
is an opportunity to hear a mes
sage from man who is deserving
OF your time and attention. The
crowds which have greeted him,
despite weather conditions, give
undisputed testimony to the fact
that they are hearing something
worth while. Mr.. Shaw is a man
who believes what he says and
says what he believes. If you do
not believe this come and find out
for yourself. The following are
some of his subjects beginning
with Friday night:
Friday evening: "The New
Birth"
Sunday morning: Living That
Counts"
Sunday evening: The Great
Salvation"
Monday evening: "What Must
! Do to be Saved
Tuesday evening: "What Is a
Community church,"
Wednesday evening: Goods
Dictograph.'
Thursday evening: "Quo VadIs.
Friday evening: -Four Kinds of
Baptism Taught in the New Tes-
lament
Remember the Endeavor meet
ing at $50 on Sunday evening.
Also remember that Rev. Eppard
will otbe present at either the
morning or evening services on
Sunday. This means that you
should try all the harder to be
present and support Brother Shaw
in all the services. These services
are for one and ali. Everybody is
invited. Tell your neighbors
about them and come yourself.

73O Accidents on Iowa
Highways in Short Time

1t is time that we were realizing
the public danger from the careless
driver and the speed maniac and
a check given to the menace.
In the months Of April, May and
June, this year, there were 750
accidents on Iowa highways. In
these accidents, 73 persons were
killed. There may have been
others, but this number has been
reported to the state highway
commission.
Carelessness in driving is a crime
and it should not be allowed. 1t
is time for everyone to strive to
put an end to the deadly toll
which automobiles are taking in
Iowa.

given: Proper dieting. cleanliness. suf-
ficient sleep and fresh air at all times.

value for their money and that Plain

teous and appreciaffye Of their trade.
Another Dollar Day is being planned
for the near future and in this it is
hoped that all will take part and make
it even better than the last. II present

why they should not, number OF
