other: John a. Martin, who aftvr-
wards became governor Of Kan

were not true; nor were the
ebarges he made against nre.
Tho editor I sent to the peniten-
tiary wrote before his death that
] was q hard man to abuse, as my
employees spoke well Of me, and
that he could find little to my dis
credit. He wrote to the town I
came from for stones to throw at

SERIES OF SERMONS
BY DIR. A. j. MONCRIEF

In the series or sermons on Play
ing the Fool" which DR. Moncrief is
delivering on Sunday evenings at the
First Baptist church, the subject for
the next message viii be: THE Fool
Who Is Wise in His Own Eyes" The
sermon will deal with the false teach
ing of mans self sufficiency, and the
folly of the faith that reason is all the
light man needs for the guidance of
his life. The utter inadequacy of
conscience as a monitor of right and
wrong will be pointed out.
THESE messages are provoking
though along practical and interest
ing lines.
