ENVOY SWARTz TELLS
OF WORTH OF Bible

Unusual verses in the Bible were
read and explained by Envoy E. Paul
inc Swartz at the second of her
series of meetings held at Salvation
Army headquarters on South Fifth
street, Wednesday night.
Miss Swartz dwelt long on The ad-
vancement of the Bible as literature
and the fact that so many people do
not know their scripture. They fail
to take advantage of their opportunl-
ties to study the word of God" she
said.
In reading the second verse of the
third epistle of John, Miss Swartz
asked the question, "If your physical
and material wealth just measured up
to your spiritual wealth, would you
be a bankrupt" The scripture read
ing referred to was, Il wish, above all
things that thou mayst prosper and
be in health even as thy soul
prospereth."
Meeting Tonight
Miss Swartz spoke before thu spe-
cial meeting of the Women's Home
league Wednesday afternoon and will
address a meeting to which the pub
lie is invited Thursday night The
meeting is TO be held at the Salvation
Army headquarters beginning at SIZE
o'clock and her subject will be or
Palestine.

conditions there very wildly. II
