Rev.
On last Sunday evening Rev. W. C. Cole spoke in the Christian church on
the "Four Sad Evils of Jewell and Their Remedy." A splendid
audience was present to hear him. The sad evils were as follows:
first, "Sin"; secondly, "Disease"; thirdly, "Death"; fourthly, "Grave."
The only remedy that can be called a safe remedy, argued the speaker, is
Jesus Christ who is the Great Physician. Through the power
of His Gospel man has the promise of conquering each of these sad evils.

Anson Brown, of Boone, will preach at the Church of Christ next Sonday, Nov. 6, both morning and evening. He is an able speaker and the public is invited to hear him. The Ladies Aid society of the Christian church will meet with Mrs. Samuel S. Stark Thursday, Nov. 10th. Mrs. Stark is desirous of having a large attendance. The Christian church expects to begin a series of protracted meetings about the middle of December. The services of an evangelist will be secured. The
Christian church will perfect plans this winter for building a parsonage,
the renting of a suitable house for a minister being absolutely out of
the question.

At the quarterly gathering of the L. A. S. of the Christian church, which was held at the home of F. R. Jenkins, Thursday night of last week, netted the sum of $10.00, which is used for missionary purposes. The officers of the church of Christ held a meeting recently to decide the building of a parsonage and there was raised over $700, which is a fine starter. There were two large audiences at the Christian Church Sunday at the forenoon and afternoon services. There were no services in the evening. The Christian congregation had eight different photographs taken Sunday of the people, the building, and Bible School classes. There
will be regular services at the Christian church next Sunday.
Preaching at eleven o'clock and eight o'clock in the evening.

Rev. W. C. Cole, of Osceola, former pastor of the Christian church here, is meeting with splendid success in the evangelistic meetings he is holding at the Christian church. Up to Monday night of the week 24 additions to the church were reported. Monday afternoon seven were baptized and Tuesday afternoon twelve others were baptized. The weather conditions were very unfavorable last week, but the fair weather and better roads of the past few days has resulted in largely increased attendance and in a great deal more interest in the meetings. The special meeting for men only last Sunday afternoon was well attended, it being estimated that over 150 men were present. Next Sunday afternoon at three o'clock a special meeting for ladies and girls will be held. The men's meeting last Sunday was a helpful and inspiring service and the special meeting for ladies next Sunday is looked forward to as one of the good services of the series of meetings. Tuesday evening of the week was made a special Stanhope service, a large delegation from the Christian church at Stanhope dirving over in autos and attending the service in a body. The visiting delegation were seated together in seats specially reserved for them. This Thursday evening is to be a Mothers' Meeting, special services being held tonight in honor of the Mothers. The
services will close Thursday night of next week, Rev. and Mrs. Cole leaving
then for Malta Bend, Mo., Mr. Cole's old home town, where he will conduct
evangelistic services.

Hoping every member will be present so we may complete our work and get our shoulder against the wheel and work in harmony. Church Clerk

We are very much pleased with the splendid interest and fine spirit that
is being manifested in our Red and Blue Contest in the Bible School.
We have a splendid group of loyal, intelligent, consecrated teachers, and
if you are not studying the Word of God in some other Bible School, we
extend to you the priveleges of our school.
The pastor's morning theme "in the Presence of the Most High". In the evening, "The Wonder Working Jesus". We shall be more than glad to have you worship with us in the House of God. F. M. Lindenmeyer, Pastor |
