Resurrection Assurance The people of the world are crying for assuarnce. They are tired of promises, no matter how sincerely given or how loudly pro claimed. A promise is no guaran tee of fulfillment. The people of Germany, of Italy, and of Japan were given promises around which was placed a halo of Utopian liv ing, and it is the extravagance of these promises which has made the more tragic the disillusion ment of the peoples of these na tions. The world has had its recurring cycles of unfulfilled promises. And you and I, as individuals, have had this same experience, and our disillusionment has been bitter and our disappointment and discouragement has often been heartbreaking. Yet, though promises are not a guarantee of assurance, they may be the groundwork of assurance if given by the right person. In the New Testament we read that Jesus made a promise to His disciples. He also proclaimed it to the people of Jerusalem, saying | that on the third day He would Out-of-Town News From Ennis, Texas By Mr*. G. L. Terrell The City Federation of Women’* club* met at the home of Mrs. L. A. Booker on March 8. at 7:30 p. m. with it’s president, Mrs. C. E. Moore presiding.

A project undertaken by the Isabell Smith District of Federated Women’s Clubs has well carried out the above theme: A five room girl's home modemly equipped, sanitary, and comfortable has been paid for. Mrs. Bennett showed the club members of the club a framed pic ture of this lovely home, which is lo cated on highway 183 between Dallas and Fort Worth. The J. M. Jackson Culture and Study Club was hostess on this occasion and served a delicious menu. arise again, ^nd thus it was that j the little band of His close fol- ! lowers were found in an upper j room discussing the fact that Simon Peter declared that he had j seen the Lord. In the midst of • their discussion there.burst into J the room the two disciples who had met the Master on the road to Emmaus. Then there appeared before them the Lord Himself, calming their doubts and appre hension with the words, “Why are ye troubled? It is I?’ I It is I whom ye say still the tempest. | raise the dead, heal the leper, comfort the sorrowing, confound the rulers and perform many other miracles. t It was thus that the R.aen Lord bade them look at Him and be assured. Today, too. there is but one answer to the anxieties the fears and the weaknesses of the world. Jesus gives us the answer to our per plexities and problems when He says. “It is I," It is 1 who. through the centuries, have proved Myself the Friend of the poor, the Defender "of the weak, the Stabiliser of the vacillating, the Savior of the lost. It is I who said. "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.” It is I who con stantly preached the Gospel of sharing time, Interest and material benefits with others. Again, in our search for assur ance we can hear Jesus say: "It is I who am the embodiment of the principle of fair play.” “And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them.” 10e.2Je.L|r Lincoln's Favorit* Potato Chip Start Saving V/2%-3% STATE SECURITIES 132 So. 13 St. QUALITY AND ECONOMY THE MODEL CLEANERS, DYERS AND HATTERS 2-5262 2105 O Street __ —1 Smith Pharmacy 2146 Vine Prescriptions — Drugs Fountain — Sundries Phone 2-1958 - T t t V » T - I --T t 1 « 1 1 T ~ ~i \QxhwichsLA 11 ■ »»■»■»« • « m » ■ »■» «»»«♦»<« m Quinn t hapel A.
