CLOSE ATTENTION
IS GIVEN SERMON
Pastor Preaches to Good
Crowd on “Quench
Not The Spirit”
Although everything was wet un
derfoot, and the preceding rain had
changed the plans of many who were
interested, a very good crowd was
out at the First Methodist church
last night in this the last lap of the
ten days’ revival campaign. Rev.
Guyton Fisher preached an unusual
ly strong sermon from the text,
‘■Quench Not the Spirit.” He said
that sin had its effect on us and on
God, man becoming hardened and
God being grieved. Some of the ways
that the Spirit might be quenched, he
said, were to do nothing, to smother
it with other things, t* throw rub
bish on it, to fail to feed it. The au- j
dience was evidently interested from
the close attention given.
With only two days remaining, the
pastor urges redoubled efforts on the
pait of all workers, tnd a faithful >
attendance on the public services.

His Troubles Are a Thing Os
The Past Since Taking Pome

Mr. M. N. Edwards, 211 Cotton
Ave., Americus, is another prominent
Georgia man who gives Pomeroy’s
Puratone his unqualified endorse
ment. Mr. Edwards is a well known
and wealthy furniture dealer. Re
cently he said:
“Pomeroy’s Puratone has helped
me wonderfully and I am making this
statement so others may know what
this medicine will really do. I suffer
ed intensely with stomach trouble and
rheumatism. After almost every
meal I had awful pains in the pit of
my stomach. I often had attacks of
indigestion and was troubled so with
shortness of breath at times I could
hardly get my breath. I was trou-
SAY, FOLKS! LISTEN TO THIS.
In order to be able to serve the public better, I have secured the services
of Dr. J. Frank Neville, of Birmingham. Dr. Neville is a dentist with 10
years’ experience, and has been connected with one of the largest dental
offices in Birmingham. He comes direct from them to accept the position
as operator and x-ray expert in one of Georgia’s leading dental offices—
right here in Americus. I have investigated Dr. Neville from every angle,
and he comes with the very best references possible for a man to have, and I
have had to put forth extraordinary effort and made the inducement great
in order to secure his services. I am adding complete new equipment, in
cluding the very best x-ray machine, and will operate 3 separate chairs. I
propose to put Americus on the map, when it comes to satisfying folks with
high-grade, up-to-the-minute dental service.
