REVIVAL MEETING
A protracted meeting will
begin at the Methodist church
the first Sunday in September.
We have secured the services
of Rev. E. H- Hook, our pastor
at Mountain View, to help in
the song service.
We hereby invite all other
denominations of Newark to
join with us in this campaign
for Righteousness. In the lan
guage of the Apostle Paul, I
exhort you that “Forgetting
those things which are behind
and reaching forth, unto those
things which are before, let us
press toward the mark for the
prize of the high calling of
God in Christ Jesus.”
The good this meeting will
bring to the town will depend
very largely upon the co-opera
tion the people of the town
give the meeting. We want
this meeting to be a meeting
for all the people—to help the
sinner into the Kingdom and
give the people of God com
fort.
Can we depend on you to
help or shall we hear the knock
of the hammer?
May the Father of mercy
lead us to victory.
Yours for service,
J. E. SNELL, Pastor.

say in reply to the letters of

I am proud of our soldier
boys and would say to them,

And as some of our boys ask
for the prayers of the people

same for them and I know that
all mothers are praying for

of your soldier boy.”
