by sin, and again II may be neces-
sary to sustain US so that we fall
not into sin. Every wreck in the
life of the soul is because man re.
lies uon himself. You can rely
only upon God. And you can rely
upon Him always and for every
thing, There Is no such thing as
the unforgivable sin on Gods part.
He can forgive every sin because
He has forgiven them all and re-
deemed them al on the cross.
The unforgivable sin Is the sin
OF the man who thinks his sin is
bigger than Gods pardOning power.
Il IL the sin Of Judas-tIle sin Of

cause He can't. And he can't be-

Can God forgive me? / asked; and
my answer was:
Why not? He died to prove
that He could. Only be sorry for
what you have done because you
have done It to Him.

How soon can God forgive me?

TWELVE NILES OUT"
A SENSATIONAL HIT

John Gilbert says it with thrills in
Twelve Miles Out"
The new Metro-G oldwyn- Mayer
mystery drama which will play at the
Iris Theatre, opens with gasp;
thrills and sensations cram every ms
tant and still through it all runs a
thread of genuine artistry that makes
it unique among the picture offerings
of the season.
William Anthony McGuire's famous
stage play was a sensation before the
footlights-but of course the stage
could not turn an ocean to the task
of furnishing more thrills. This is
what the picture did.
The sensational race between the
rum-runners and the revenue cutters
the daring kidnapping on the high
seas that developed into one of the
sweetest of love stories set in maze
of intrigue and battle; these are some
of the high spots in the daring drama.
Gilbert is glorious as the swash-
bucking motorcycle daredevil who be-
comes the nemesis of the rum-run-
ners; he has all the dash and fire of
"Bardelys" and all the romantic APP
peal of "The Merry Widow all en-
bodied in an ultra modern young man.
Joan Crawford makes a charming
heroine and contributes one of the
finest pieces of acting in her rather
meteoric career.
Ernest Terrence delights in unusual
roles, and as McCue, the big rum-run-
ner, he gives a remarkable portrayal
/ of a nature in which viciousness is
mixed with a queer brand of whimsical
humor Bert Roach, Eileen Percy, Tom
O'Brien, Edward Earle, Paulette Du-
val, Dorothy Sebastian and Gwen Lee
all give splendidly balanced perfor-
mances.
Jack Conway, who triumphed il
"Brown of Harvard" gave a splendid
example of intelligent direction, anc
A. P. Younger's adaptation from the
stage play left nothing to be desired
Thrills and romance; artistry and SEN
sation; this picture has them all.

after dropping off to sleep, he was

@. S. C. M. asks: what is the usual
resistance of voltmeter suitable for
use with B battery eliminator, and
how does this compare with the resis-
lance of the ordinary voltmeter?"
Ans-A good meter for measuring
eliminator voltages should have re-
sistance of about 1000 ohms per volt
for full scale DETECTION. An ordinary
voltmeter will have about so or 60
ohms per volt and the best ones 100
ohms per volt.
