We extend sympathy to the be
reaved husband, relatives and
mends, and especially the hus
band for we know that he will
be so lonesome here, but the
Lord has promised to comfort
those that mourn.
It looks like there are a lot.
of people that are mourning to
iday, and it looks like some of
our earthly friends have forsak
en us. The good Lord tells us
that our earthly friends will
forsake us, yet He tells us that
He never will leave us nor for
,sake us. Now, of course, the
Lord is talking about those that
have put their trust in Him &
are obeying Him here, but let
us remember that the Lord has
told us that it is not every one
that saith, Lord! Lord! that
will enter the kingdom of heav
en, but those that doeth the
will of Him that is in heaven.
The devil has people right here
in our midst that is saying,
Lord! Lord and making a great
afcftS? jyplQJig men that is just
fir the purpose of deceiving
men. By their fruits ye shall
know them. Now the Lord
.tells us to follow Him. Yes, He
,said they would follow Him.
Now let us see how Christ treat
ed the people while He was in
(the world. He was kind to all
men when He met with people
that was hungry He fed them.
.When they were thirsty He’d
give them drink. Did we ever
{find Him ever turning any a
jway that came to Him? No.
Well, what does He tell us. He
that would buy of you, does He
feay turn him away? No, but He
tells us, he that would buy of
you turn him not away but lend
unto him expecting nothing in
return. Now if this is the words
of our dear Savior w'hat must
we do? The greatest of all
things is charity, which is love
Have we got it? If not Ave are
none of His, but are following
the wicked one. So let us exam
ine ourselves and do not be de
ceived by the wicked one.
Mr. Cicero Davis is seriously

THE DOCTORS’ SAY TO YOU
To the Public & to our custom
ers, especially:
To you we have rendered our
services in the past, rain or
shine, day or night, to the ex
tent our physical ability would
permit
On account of the financial
stringency, very few of our n*
turners have paid their aects.
and we have not had the time
to look each and every one up
in order to make settlement &
do not feel it is our duty to hire
someone to do so. Therefore,
we request that you come to
see us at once and pay all you
can and arrange the balance
satisfactorily, if you expect a
continuance of our service.
We are opposed to bankrupt
cy as a method of settling just
and honest debts, and we will
not receive them in payment of
any debts due us. Those who
have settled their accounts
with bankrupt cards may ex
pect to get their medical serv
ice elsewhere. We are not go
ing to work for them (volunta
ry bankrupts)until we are fully
paid.
We are anxious to serve ev
ery one to the best of our abil
ity, but it costs money to keep
up automobiles and buy drugs
This would only take a few
minutes of your time to look us
up and help us all you can, but
would take much of our time
to look up each one of you. So
those who fail to comply with
this reasonable request within
sixty (60) days will be placed
on list and exchanged.
