What do you do with your Lords
day. Do you spend it in worship
for God or do you desecrate it by
using it for all kinds of worldly
amusements. Some day you will see
you have to account to God for
your deeds done in the flesh. Life
at best is very brief, like the falling
of leaf All flesh is as grass and
the glory of man is as the flower
of the grass. You may be we'll and
strong today and tomorrow you may
be in eternity-where are you going
to spend eternity? Don't spend
your life in ungodly amusement but
rather in preparing to meet God.
Life should be but dressing room
in which to prepare for eternity.
Come join us in the church Of
the Foursquare Gospel where the
Bible is preached from cover to COW
er. Sunday morning Sister Bick-
hart is preaching on "The Broken
Loaf" This is Holy Communion,
when we commemorate the broken
body and the shed blood of our
Lord. He said, LAS oft as we do
this do it in remembrance of me"
All blood washed Christians are in
vited to partake with us of the

duced in price to give customers
really sensational values.
J. D. johnson, proprietor, says
that the public should realize that
these reductions have been made
in the face of a rising market,
which means that replacement costs
on merchandise sold at these low
prices will in many cases exceed the
retail price given customers during
this event.
"All merchandise is going up
steadily" johnson stated, land 1
believe it will continue to go up.
For that reason those who take ad-
vantage of our reduced prices at
this time will save even more than
is shown by our markdownS, as
prices are bound to rise on the very
things they purchase now.
I'VE have gone through our stocks
