God Is Good Shepherd and Is Hunting
for the Lost Sheep, Ssys Pastor
Durden. r
“We have all heard that expression,
‘You esn judge a man by the company
he keeps,’ and while this 1b no doubt
true for the the ordinary man, s great and
good man can associate with bad company
and come back better,-uplifting the bad,
redeeming them and making them good,”
said Dr. C. W. Durden in his sermon at
the First Baptist Church Wednesday
night on “The Lost Sheep—The One."
In beginning his discourse, Dr. Dur
den said that he didn't think any one
chapter of the Bible should be called bet
ter than the other, but if there was one'
chapter which more completely revealed
jthe redeeming heart of God than any other
destination. So far J. Hardy Corn and
the children have not been located. Af

This great territory however, was
destined soon to assume an important
role in the drama of western life. The
trade with Mexico, though at first of
little importance, was recognized as a
very profitable field of commercial en
terprise. A route was soon established!
over these vast prairies which as a scene,
of never ceasing warfare, probably has no ]
equal among the trade routes of the world.
Starting from the frontier settlements]
in western Missouri, it wound its way]
through the hilly country in the eastern
part of what ia now Kansas and emerg
ing on the gently rolling prairies to the
westward, entered the broad and fertile
valley of the Arkansas river. Now along
this valley are great fields of shining
grain and thriving cities. But when we
begin to emerge into the mountain region
we come to the famous health resort, Hot
Springs where we sec people from Eu
rope, England, China and in fact almost
everywhere come to bathe in the hot wa
ters.
Hot Springs is owned by the govern
ment and governed by the same. A man
may lease a tract of land and build a
house to live in, but the land and water]
are controlled by the government. The!
