DO YOD WANT
A SUIT?
You know we have a lot of
nice 1* all Weight Suits at a price
that is a cinch for a fellow that
wants to save a little money.
Lots of neat patterns, some belt
back, but more in the plain con
servative styles, and we are
making a special price of
$25.00 EACH
They are splendid, values,
too. and are worth a good deal
more, but then, we need the
room for a lot more goods that
we were foolish enough to let a
bunch of slick traveling men talk
us into buying, so the bargain
is yours.

SUNDAY’S
SERMONS
“Christ, tho World’s Light,” was
the tfieme at the Methodist church
Sunday morning. In John 8:12, Jesus
says, ‘‘I am the light of the world;
he that followeth me shall not walk
in the darkness, but shall have the
light of life.” In the second verse
John says, “And early in .the morn
ing, he came again into the temple,
and all the people came unto him; and
he sat down and taught them.” Evi
dently the environment of the hour
suggested to the mind of ( hrist oui
text. The gray dawn found him seat
ed ready to receive the vast audience
that had become so interested in his
teachings. There were also those who
had failed in their attempt to appre
hend him the previous day. They did
not, or at least pretended not to be
lieve in him. Jesus wished to not only
justify those in coming who desired to
hear him, but also to announce to his
enemies that they were entirely mis
taken in their judgment of him. The
Sun, the monarch of the day, was just
rising when we see Jesus refer to
himself as the light of the world. No
doubt these words rang in the memory
of both his friends and enemies- ever
after, as they would see the morning
glow in the eastern sky. Just as the
Sun dispels darkness, so does Christ
dispel doubts and fears from the
hearts of men. We have the oppor
tunity to step out into the clear sun
light or we may enter a dungeon and
prevent the life-giving light from fill
ing our souls.
