NUMBER 8
STATE TO OBSERVE DE
CEMBER 7TH AS UNI
Ì VERSAL BIBLE DAY
G overnor A. W. N orblad urges the
observance next Sunday, December 7,
o f Universal Bible Sunday in the
churches th ro u g h o u t Oregon. The
Am erican Bible Society, an organiza
tion which issues annually over eleven
f million copies of Bibles Testam ents,
and P ortions in close to two hundred
J languages, has been sponsoring Uni
jj versal Bible Sunday over a period of
J years. Thousands of churches through
^ out th e United States as well as many
2* C hristian churches abroad join in this
< m ovem ent which was conceived and
i is prom oted to em phasize the essen
tial position which the Bible occupies
in the spiritual life o f men and wom
en.
In endorsing Universal Bible Sun
day, G overnor N orblad says: “The

METHODIST CHURCH
"T he Righteousness T hat Exceeds,”
(M att. 5 :2 0 ) was the subject of the

and the deep peace which nothing but

So th e “ m ore” th a t Jesu s req u ires is
