The city ooonsil has acted wisely in referring tbe petition tar an election on the elec trio light question, to the com mittees on light andflnanca. There gen- tlemen are familiar with, tha city’s af fairs, end know the pepper method cf procedure, the forms ta bs observed, etc. The matter is on important one. It does not demand Immediate Judgment much aa careful oonridsration. Still there should be no vexations' delay. The re port of the oommltteee will be awaljed with interest. day would, teach them that to know abbath. who Waa in Stepens, commissioner r the state of Georgia Stevens is ono ot ■ t in the state, »ud in as in every othor Georgia ' hit friends by the Times- the Lord of the Sabi their midst, *was better than all their self righteous doings (Jer. lx, 23.24). Lesson IX.—Hearers sod doers of the word (Matt viL 21-20). Golden Text Jos. L 22, “Be ye doers of the ward and not hearers only.” A lot of so called religion in mere talk and an offense to God and man. It it true that there is no salvation by works revealed in Scripture, but only salvation by tbe precious blood of Christ as God’s tree gift to tbe penitent sinner. Lesson X.—Jesus calms the storm (Mark In 35-41). Golden Text. Ps. cvlL 2D, “He maketh the storm a palm, so that the waves thereof are still.” Fear and alarm should have no place In tbe heart of a child of God, for the perfect love of.Uod cuts out all fear (I John Iv, 18). Bnt; like the disciples In tbe boat, we are apt to aee with the nat ural eyes only and merit His “How la It that ye have no faith?" Lesson XI.—Death of John the Bap-' Bat (Matt xir, 1-12). Golden Text Rev. 1L 10, "Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown ot Ufe.'; The ungodly prosper In this world, for the whole world lleth In the wicked one (Pa. Ixxtll, 12; I John v, ID). Tbe righteous are called to walk with Him who haa chosen them and to naf fer with IUm and not to think It strange (John xv, 18-20; I Pet Iv, 12, 13; Phi!. L 20). Seeing Jeans only, In □Is hand for Hit pleasure, and saying. "Even ao. Father,” this Is tho believer’s way. — Lesson XIL-Jcsue feeds the five thousand (Matt, xtv, 13-23). Golden Text John vt 35, "Jeaua raid unto them. I am the Bread ot Life.” Full ot compass Ion, seeing tbe multitudes. as sheep haring no shepherd, feeding them as to their bodies sod speaking to them of the kingdom of God, this was His way and should be ours, for He Is sttll saying, “Give ye them to eat” We may seem to have no re sources. no power toido anything, but He who sued and multiplied the lad's res and Ashes still Urea. r i SPRING Novelty Showing ENHANCED BY THE -Showing of Spring Weather.- Ths sunshine of this week brought DRY GOODS buyers galore.
