Liddell, has re turned from vacation and is swing ing into his work with renewed energy. It is the duty of every human being to spend at least one hour a week in Divine worship— most certainly every church member. Sunday should be a day of joy and happiness—Sunday afternoons, re creation, such as riding, and games are fine, but one enjoys these more if one has been to church in the morn ing. A group of people assembled ex clusively for the worship of Almighty God is the most important purpose that can inspire the human mind—the individual’s personal relation to God. Morning Subject—“ The Dangers of Pride.” Theme for the evening hour: “An Evangelical Message.” Congregational singing. Come to our church next Sunday. We are look ing for you.
