Good Audience Hears Rev. Peters al
Forest Avenue Revival on
Tuesday Evenint.

The stormy weather Tuesday eve-
ming did not prevent q very helpful
service at Sedden M. q. church. Rcv.
Peters preached q powerful sermon
based on that scene in the life Of Mo-
ses when the children Of Israel had
sinned and were worshiping . golden
calf. In reproving the waywardness
Of Israelites Moses put very pointed
question who Is on the Lords side?"
With this as q starting point the
preacher drew the lines 10 closely that
everyone could locate themselves
whether they were on the Lords side.
The close attention. given the SER
mon and the sponses to the invita-
tion for conservation showed that the
sermon had gone homo to the hearts
Of the audience. Such faithful preach
ing Of the great gospel truths II sure
to bring results. Services will con-
tinue each evening beginning at 1880
O'Clock. Prayer meetings In the homes
