Russel Taylor, Pastor
Yes, we have no standing accord
ing to the testimony of the Grand
Omithorynchus, or some other kind
of cuss of the K. K. K,, but so long
as we adhere to the standard laid
down by Moses and the prophets, so
long as we build on thejoundation of
the prophets and the apostles with
Jesus Christ as the chief cornerstone,
all the Grand Tohrinkuses in the uni
verse cannot disqualify us.
Another member was added to our
number Sunday morning, and there
aie still more to follow. If some of the
members of the family who are sys
tematically absenting themselves from
the family circle would drop in occa
sionally, and should each one just
happen to choose or hit upon the same
occasion, they would really be sur
prised how large the family actually I
is. TRY IT.
Sunday morning the pastor’s theme
will be, “Wells, or Broken Cisterns,
Which?”
Snuday evening, “A Nation of Pro
faners,” or “What are You Doing with
the Third Commandment?”
Insuring ths Forests.
The first forest Insurance was writ
ten In Germany In 1870, and It has
made gains In Europe commensurate
with the development of forest culti
vation and protection.
