MI. John Owen Smith, the son Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Walter Smith, of Har-

at the Methodist Church.
This was the first time that he has
preached and he promises to be one

He has fine delivery, and his
thoughts were %forcefully expressed,
and as one looked into his splendid
young face, they could also read,
what this noble young christian
would mean for the kingdom of God.
Mr.. Smith has a wonderful voice
and he can sing the gospel, as well
as preach it, so he will be a two fold
power in the Masters vineyard, for

Christ by the power of song.
