DR. BROWN GIVES FAREWELL SERMON Has Been Pastor of First Baptist Church Eleven Years Rev. Dr, T. Edwin Brown, for the | ceme, because of the blinding, strang- ling, polsoning smoke of battle to realize that Christ is on the fleld or anywhere near it. Dark Era of world's Crisis. so in this dark era of the world's ¢ , in the era, too, of your own church crisis, may I urge upon you beloved friends that you seek cach one for himself and each for his brother and tor the church as a whole an enlarged and ever enlarging loyalty to the only cause that was great enough to absorb all the activi- ties of the mind and heart and to con- trol the absolute devotion of the will “And past sleven vears pastor of the First Baptist church, preached his final sermon yesterday morning. As it was communion Sunday at the church, & large number of parishioners were REV. DR. T. EDWIN BROWN. presént to bid farewell to Dr. Brown. He gpoke in part as follows: “One of the marked features of our Lord’s character was his absolute loyalty to a cause. His loyalty con- &tantly recurs like the theme in music, through all the varied harmonies of his wonderful life. ‘To this end was 1 born and for this cause came I until thé world.” The cause to which he gave himself was the establishment of the commonwealth of God on earth, the reign of God, the doing of the will of God in all the personal, gocial and international relationships of men through the personal redemp- tion of men from sin to righteousness, trom selfishness to love. Devotion to this cause was the determining test, the final interpretation of all He thought, or said, or did. For the cause He - lived, prayed, wrought, fought, stufféred and died. This feast) of love spread here this morning in whi¢ch wé remember our Master, is a proclamation world wide and - age long, of loyalty to His cause. There is no good, no cause which has moral, physical and spiritual welfare for its /aim, that this great cause does not ‘eover; and-when this cause fnally triumphs every wrong will have been permanently righted and every worthy humadn aspiration have reached its geal. He expects His disciples to stand for the cause for which He stands, as He stands for it. It is not enough to be personally devoted to Him, to love Him; we must be de- voted to His causé. He so loved it that everything ‘in His career: paid iribute to it. And we are to stand for Him in this world. His honor and His #uccess are in our hands. Every man 18 in the sum total, his life is stand- ing for righteousness or for the op- posite. He cannot stand for both or neither. The call of the hour to pro- fessed disciples, is for increasing and intelligent loyalty to the cause to ‘which Jésus was devoted, the cause of righteousness, of the triumph of the will of God. If ever there was a day when petty, hesitating, half-hearted Christianity had any place this is not #uch & day. This 18 the day for stal- warts, for loyalists, who shall be aftame with a devotion which domi- nates with a mighty, masterful pas- ston: all lesser aims. The opportuni- tles which claim Christian service and the perils which demand Christian de- fense ate altke more tremendous than ever in history. The demoralization wrought by this Satanic war are giv- ing, ‘great ‘lowering df Christian ideals. prise, gréat paralysié to religious feel- ing, gheat lowering of Christian ideals, Somehow we must trust that good will be the final goal of all this Il But it is dificult néw; it will be increasingly difficult in- months to P FAMILY FOOD, Crisp; Toothsome, and ReGuires No Cooking- A little boy down in N. C. asked his mother to write an dccount of how Grape-Nuts food had helped their family. She says Grape-Nuts was first brought to her attention wWhere she visl';%dv “While I was there I used the food regularly.

Seek a great, urgént, spiritual loyalty. Loyalty here with faith in the love and wisdom of the One Master and Commander, who is with us in theé blackest night, is the only way we have of expressing to that cause of world redemption and world righteousness and world sub- Jugation at last to the will of God to which that great Master and Com- mander, Our Master, gave the passion and fullness of his life.” First -Baptist Church, The Bible school of the First Bap- tist church resumed its class study vesterday.

M. Halloran, Incorporat- ed, are keeping up with and just a little ahead of the times in an adver- tising respect again demonstrated by what is perhaps the most elaborate system of advertising ever attempted by any business house in this section, namely: the giving is practically fanola which is now on exhibition at their store. This Grafanola retails at $200.00. The principal points of superiority of this celebrated Grafanola over any other lie in the rich, deep, even tone so much admired. In the recent interview with Mr. Halloran recerding this decided inno- vation in advertising, Mr. Halloran stated: “We have been enjoying the P patronage and confidefice of the buy- ers of this community for some time now and by always trying to keep our stocks complete the saying that ‘You can get it at Halloran’s' has become a household expreéssion. We have made alterations in our store. Every de- | partment has been reorganized. Hav- ing a great deal more room, we have added several departments. In giv- ing away this Grafanola we are ac- tuated by a double purpose, to show our appreciation of the patronage of our friends during the past, also to encourage new trade and to bring the inany splendid values we are now showing in all lines to the attention of every buyer in this territory. The plan we are using in giving away this Gra- fanola is equitable and fair te &N, simply this, we will give votes.at the | rate of one for every cent of pur- chase. The person returning to us.on March 1, 1916 the largeet number of votes will be given the Grafanola ab- solutely free of all cost. No favors will be shown. Our reputation for ‘square dealing’ assures our custom- ers of that fact.” This two hundred dollar Grafandla is surely a present worth having and we predict a very “merry race” for votes during the next few months, Mr. Halloran is surely to be con- gratulated upon his broad-minded methods and “Trade Getter' advertis- ing system. 4 Joseph MeBEnrde Kansas City after weeks at his homé | ONE 1y ace DO YOU KNOY be glad 1o send you a their Magazine if théy dress.
