During the Salvation Army's reg

gave the following talk:
"Some weeks ago, at the request
of many Of our listeners, we COM

Commandments as our subject Of
Commandments, taking one Of the
meditation each Sunday.
From the many comments sent
in, we have realized that these lit
tie talks have been well received
and have proven quite helpful to
many. And so today we continue
our study; we turn to the twen-
tieth chapter Of the book Of Exodus
the eighth verse, where we read:
Remember the Sabbath day, to
keep it holy"
Selfish Observance
Nov, no doubt, many of our
listeners, upon hearing this COM

this evening, will quietly settle
back in their easy chairs, their

iberately break this = command
