MORNING SERVICES ARE
FEATURES OF REVIVAL
Evangelist Harmon's Morning Bible
Studies at South Methodist Church
Are Interesting.

Following his theme Of the preced-
ing night, concerning the natural de-
pravity of the unregenerate human
hoart, Rev. Harmon spoke Tuesday
night on "The Witness Of the Spirit"
After reading the eighth chapter Of
Romans as background, he took as
his text, John 3:S, 80 is every one
that is born of the Spirit" He empha-
sized the fact that genuine conversion
and forgivehess Of sins Is always ac-
companied by very conscious sense
Of Gods forgiveness. God, he said.
does not save man through the intel
lect but through the heart. Proof of
ones salvation may be found through
the witness of Gods word, assuring
him of forgiveness If he repents, con-
fesses his sins, forsakes his sins and
believes on the Lord Jesus Christ;
through the witness of Gods spirit
testifying to his own spirit and bring
ing peace and comfort; and through
the witness Of his own spirit in that
he feels the sense of sonship and for
saking his old nature find the fruits
Of the Holy Spirit working out in his
life.
Rev. Harmon Is bringing out tho
richest treasures Of Gods promises ir
his morning studies Of the Bible
Everyone is invited to attend the
morning and evening services being
held daily at the First M E. Church,

STILLS PLENTIFUL
ON THE Big SANDY
SAYS DRY AGENT
Prohibition Agent Returns to COving.
ton After Series Of Raids
on entucky-Vlrginia
Border

Mammoth moonshine stills are plen-
tiful along the Big Sandy River ,ac-
cording to Chris Schott, prohibition
agent in charge Of the Covington Of
fee, who returned Tuesday from par
ticipating in a two weeks raid along
the border between Kentucky and
West Virginia.
The enforcement officers from both
states co-operated in the raid. Schott
told Of the capture of 250-gallon still
In operation on Berkenshaw's Creek,
nineteen miles south of Ashland, Ky.
Another still Of 125-gallon capacity
was located and destroyed on Shope's
Creek tributary Of the Little Sandy
River. Schott said that the stills were
In operation and were equipped with
pumps and tanks for drawing water
from the creeks for us in making
"moonshine" whisky.
The raiders destroyed more than g.
900 gallons Of mash and poured fifty
gallons of "moonshine' whisky on the
ground as they had no means of re-
moving 1t.
Hearing that moonshine whisky was
sold openly in the mountains Schott
decided to verify the rumors. With the
aid of a guide he penetrated the noun
tains and finally came to still where
he bought a gallon for $40.
After obtaining the liquor Schott
placed the owner of the still under ar
rest and took him to Ashland. where
the man registered as James Mufsta.
The man gave bond for his appearance
before the Federal grand jury and
then left for home Schott will use the
purchased liquor as evidence at the
trial, which will be held at Catletts-
burg.
