The church services held on Sun
day were inspiring.
At the Methodist Church a Sunday
school session begins at 9:45, r. E.
Hickman, superintendent; then eX-
perience meeting follows with Thos.
Short, leader. The experiences relat-
ed by those present were helpful to
all, and likewise praising God for
His Holy Spirit.
At night the Epworth League took
Mace at z o'clock. Preaching service
at 7:45 by Rev. C. w. Branford. His
subject was "The Three Crosses"
which was very impressive. The
minister had arrange a cross illum-
mated with red electric lights, also
A star was suspended at the top of
the pulpit, which conveyed a sacred
ness to the service and meaning. He
said the three crosse son "Calvary's
Hill" represented the following:
zone died for our sins--the Cross
of Jesus; one died in his sins-the
thief on the cross; and one died saw
ed from sim"
1t is time now to prepare our
shearts for the pre-Lent period.
We recalled that the sinner con-
fessed his sins and Jesus forGave
him. The other did not ask Christ to
forgive his sins.
The cross stands for our entire
salvation. He bore it that We might
be free.
Not merely an impression is nee
essary. unless it gives us an insight.
The cross should occupy the most
important place in our lives.
