THE CONQUEST OF FEAR.

Are you afraid? A recent writer
says that he is impressed with the
large place that fear fills in every hui
man life. We are not sick all the
time, we are not SHINING all the time,
but we are, most of us, all the time
afraid of someone or something. The
Bible tells of those who through fear
of death are all their life in bondage.
At the First Baptist Church on Sunday
night the Pastor will speak on this
subject, and will tell all how fear may
BIZ conquered. This is another mes
sage full of the optimism of the Gospel
and will be helpful and interesting to
all. There will be another inspiring
Song Service of new and well-known
hymns and special music by the Junior
Choir and Orchestra. There will be
the baptism of believers before the
sermon. Last Sunday night the church
was full, so 1t is well to come early if
you wish a good seat.
