PILGRIM REST NEWS

Miss Mary Short, 1917 Fifth ave-
nue. S., advisor, of B. Y. P. U. of
Bethesda was a visitor at Pilgrim
Rest Baptist church, Sunday, July
IA. Mrs. Short, in her usual in
teresting manner, told the loving and
inspiring story, touched with idyllic
charm in which Ruth is the chief
figure, revealing the romantic inter-
est most commonly associated with
gentle womanly nature.
Naomi, from judah, west of the
Dead Sea, had gone into the land Of
Moab, on the east side of this great
depression separating the two Sec
tons of the hilly country. She had
gone out with her husband and two
sons, but death claimed the three.
Then, it was when the desire came
to her to return to her native Beth
lehem, that her daugher. talaw
Ruth the Moabtitress showed her
beautiful devotion, saying, EN-
treat me not to leave thee, for
whittier thou goest, will go; where
thou lodgest, I will lodge; thy people
shalt be my people, and thy God, my
God"
Then the story moves on in gra-
phic embodiment until Ruth becomes
the wife of Boaz and the mother of
Obed, the grandfather of David.
The Sunday school was, indeed,
inspired by Mrs. Shorts message.
Sunday evening, at 500 p. M,
July %, Rev. R. j. Solomon, the be-
loved Minister of Christ Jesus, has
kindly consented to preach for the
members and friends of Pilgrim
Rest church, not only to inspire
them but to assist them in the State
Convention.
Rev. Solomon always has an in
teresting and inspiring message and
it is sincerely hoped that many from
the cities shall go to hear him and
encourage the members and friends
of Pilgrim to press forward in the
name of Jesus Christ our Lord.

Old Indian LauU
On Bootleggers

ANADARKO, Okla, March 81.
U.P)--An old Indian liquor law dat

Of the statute books and brought to
use to combat bootleggers in the

violations were only possible under
an internal revenue statute which
provided an inadequate penalty.
The half-century-old law applies
sentence of as much as seven years
Imprisonment for liquor law VIOLA

extinct since territorial days when
