meeting — Firemen’s Hall, Monday

ST. JOHN’S CHURCH
DAILY BIBLE READING.
Topic for weSk: Faith in ■Our
selves.
First Epistle of St. John 5:1-15.
“Whosoever believeth that Jes’.:s
is the Christ is bom of God.”
This, if anything, should give us
faith in ourselves. But belief is not
a mere matter of words; It must be
sincere, of the heart. If we thus
believe in Christ, he manifests his
presence in us through the kind of
lives we live. This should be cur
thought for Easter. The Risen
Christ has conquered death. He can
strengthen us for victories over sin
and death.
The Easter services' at St. John’s
tomorrow wil] be as follows:
8 a. m. Holy Communion.
11 a. m. Morning prayer and Ho
ly Communion, with spec
ial Easter music.
7 p. m. Children’s Easter ser
vice.
MAX TYRON LOOKING
for Allocation
Mr. Max Tyron, who arrived here
a few days ago for the purpose of
looking up a location for business,
is an experienced hotelman and re
turned to Milwaukee from Mexico
where he resided for eight years
prior thereto. Mr. Tyron claims to
know and understand the situation
in that country thoroughly, and
wrote an article that appeared in
the “Hotel World,” a weekly publi
cation published at Chicago, in which
; he gave out facts that surprised
: many Americans, who know very
| little about that country. He pre
! dieted many things that have hap
j pened since. He blames the admin
istration for many blunders, the re
i suits of which may cost our country
j some trouble.
Mr. Tyron is looking around to
find a location suitable for his pur
j/ pose and in the event that he finds
what he wants, his intention is to
locate here and bring his family
later.
