one with the other as Jacob did with
Esau on his returne. (G0d was di-

if the countries of the world today
would lose that grasp for lands and

there would be neither wars no ru-

The League of Nations may con-

Golden Text: Be ye kind one to

Christ forgave you. Ephesians 4-32.
There was no morning sermon,
owing to the funeral OF Mrs. War
rem which was to be held in the

services were dispensed with.
Evening Services
At Z p. m. EpwOrth League. Mrs.
Charles S. Adkins, leader. MIS-. Ad-
kins had a very fine program, and
the Glendale orchestra dispensed
some very sweet music.
The pastor took for his text
PauPs epistle to the Philippians, 4th
chapter, 9Th verse, which reads: Fl
nally brethren whatsoever things
are true, whatsoever things are hon
est, whatever things are just, what
soever things are pure, whatsoever
things are lovely, whatsoever things
are of good report, if there be any
virtue, if there be any praise, think
on these things"
1t was a sermon of great power.
1t was such a discourse as would
lead the minds of the people from
the sinful things which are abund
ant in the world today to the higher
things which are possessed by those
who trust in God at all times.
Come out and hear Mr.. Conner, he
will certainly interest you.

Church School
The Church School was we'll at
tended on Sunday morning. Ninety
two teachers and scholars being
present. Collection, $10.32.
The lesson for the day was the
continuation of the story of Esau
and Jacob. The student must read
other chapters of the book of Gen
esis to make himself familiar with
the lesson of today. Some of them
had, and they were ready with ans
wers when the teacher asked qies-
tions about the lesson. The study of
the old scriptures requires more
study on the part of the
people to get from the lessons what
they really mean to them, and apply
it as they are doing to the present
day living.
Comments-The twin brothers,
Esau and Jacob had no doubt played
around the old homestead when boys
which continued until they were
young men and it was a pity that
their cordial relations should have
been disturbed by a scheming mo-
her. Isaac loved Esau the best, be-
ng his first born. Rebekah loved
Jacob and was willing to stoOp to
to advance Jacobs inter-
est. When Esau came from the field
