This class intends to hold a social
of some kind on February II.
Further notice will be given.
Cottage Prayer Meeting
The meeting held at the home OF
Mr.. and Mrs. c. A. TimmOns was
slimly attended; only nine being
| present. This doesn't look we'll for
the Glendale NJ. E. Church with a
membership numbering nearly one
hundred. 1t woulk look as if people
were being carried away with the
social activities of the season and
are forgetting their religious duties.
The next meeting will be held at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Alfred
Clendaniel on Thursday evening of
the present week, when we hope to
make a more successful report.
Pie And Milk Social To BE Held

r. G.. Conner, teacher, will hold
pie and milk social in the school
auditorium on Friday evening, jan
uary %. This class, composed of
young ladies, who desire the help
and cooperation of the community
to aid them in increasing the funds
of their treasury. They are worthy.
Candy. ice cream and cake will be
on sale also.
Church School
The Church School was well at
tended on Sunday morning. 103 tea
chers and scholars being present.
Collection, $5.31. This was more
than five cents for each teacher and
scholar present; this was a fine
showing all around and shows con-
clusively what could be done by
hard, systematic work by those in
terested in the church school.
The Sunday morning lesson was a |
fine one and was entitled New Life |
From God" This is where a man of |
the Pharisees named Nicodemus is
ruler of the Jews and came to the
Master by night and said unto him,
Rabbi we know that thou art a tea
cher come from God, for no one can
10 these signs that thou doest. 1t
would seem that this man who came
70 Jesus by night was fearful of be-
ng seen by other people. There is
10 doubt that he had seen or heard
If the great things which the Mas
er did. He came seeking knowledge
which Christ gave him, when He
;aid to him, Verify, verify / say un-
o thee, except one be born anew,
lie cannot see the Kingdom of God.
NicOdemus did not understand
What Christ meant and he said to
he Master: How can a man be
'orn when he is old? Can he enter
second time into his mothers
Womb, and be born? !
Jesus to make it more plainly ans
7ered: Verify, verify 1 say unto
hee, except you be born of water !
nd the Spirit, he cannot enter into +
he kingdom of God.
That which is born of flesh is !
esh and that which is born of the !
pirit is Spirit. Marvel not that / !
aid unto thee, ye must be born g
new. r
AS Jesus spoke to this Pharisee :
nd told him what he must do, and {
D he speaks to everyone, Ye must c
G born again. The new birth when Il
9ceived changes the life of every b
ne who possess it; a new being is a
'eated with new views, new feel Il
Igs, new loves and becomes a true g
ssciple of Jesus Christ. Il
he Golden Text C
God so loved the world that He C
ave His only begotten Son that p
hosoever believeth on Him should Il
)t perish, but have eternal life. b
he Morning Sermon t
A large congregation greeted the a
lstor at the Sunday morning SER u
ces, who preached to them a very a.
lie sermon. I'll
His text was taken from the gos- el
j of St. Luke, 11th chapter, 10th ~
rse: For every one that asketh re- II
iveth and he that seeketh findeth, IS
ID to him that knocketh it shall be n
ened. h'
1t was a very interesting and in ai
iring sermon and held the close re
tention of his hearers until the sc
d of his discourse.
