tiers Fark Well, we need all we can
get for our youngsters of today. But
one thing I want to krow about? Not
one word has been spoken about our
now aged youngsters of yesterday
Do they not need something? Say COR
instance, those out ut our County
Home, here in our own county!
Should we not provide them with =
little more comfort? And regard them
as among our founders" They ere,
real lonely out there, and another
thing about them: Some preacher
could, and sh ould, go out there, say
every second Sunday, if not every
Sunday and have services. say from
2 p. M, until $50 D. Ill. Is it not need
ed? Why I'm sure these dear old peo-

ONCE UPON JULY 18th


One of the most quoted of all Bib
lical phrases is Matthew XIII:5-"A
prophet is not without honor, save In
his own country and in his own
house"
The family of Ursula Southiel, who
was born $50 years ago today in
marlborough, Yorkshire, England,
and the Toby Shipton who she mar
ried, gave little credit to prophecies
that arrested attention of others. Long
before the machine age, she said man
would fly like a bird and talk across
great distances, that he would walk
upon the bed of the oceans and fore
told other great discoveries.
Journalists who wrote about her in
sensational pamphlets made Mother
Shipton a legendary figure in the
Middle Ages and kept her famous
through three centuries, until her pro-
phecies began to come true. Then the
world began to forget her.
OF course, with prophets, as with as
trologers and other. fortune-tellerS, we
remember their successes, forget
their failures, and do not take luck
into account. The best prophet may
be only the best guesSer.

Message
7 THETCHURCH
BY REV. J. EVERETTE NEESE


The church. 1 love the sound Of
that word It is a dear and sacred
thing. Next to the home, it is the
center of the hottest things in life:
when the homc is broken up the
church still stands and is the one
thing on the face of the earth that
is to endure when stars forget to
shine and the earth is wrapped up
in ashes of it's own hndoing.
It is the church of the Living God,
not your denomination or mine, but
that church which God has separated
from the world and which is the one
family of God in this world and the
next. Paul calls it "the pillar and
ground Of the TRUTH" and Jesus calls
it "the light of the world and the salt
of the earth" The salt must no lose
it's savior; the light of the world must
not fail. Fl.
The church is the hope of the world
because she is the only institution
that traffics in the eternities, she
has a monopoly Of spiritual things.
Therefore she must give herself SUI
premely to the things which are SUI
preme.
Reticence seems to denote power,
