Notice.
There has been a report circulated
that prices at the Gem Theater have
been raised to 15c. for adults on all
shows. Ibis is absolutely false. We
have only raised our prices on Thurs
day night programs, which we are
compelled to do, as our service for
that evening is of the late
releases,
consequently, it costs more, and we
must make the small raise in price.
All other programs the same old price

and advertised.

"Human Welfare: Science, Sanity,

day. This will be the first of several
studies dealing with human interest
problems in the light of reason, reve

livered at intervals during the year.
A five minute talk on “What About
Tuberculosis" will precede the even
ing sermon, which will be on the sub
ject "How May 1 Become a Chris-
tain?” Sunday school at 11, and young
peoples meeting at 6:30 furnish op
portunity for study and action for all
ages. Last Sunday was a day of good
attendance and interest in all the ser
vices. The Ladies' Guild enjoyed their
banner attendance day Tuesday after
noon, when over eighty ladies were
present. The refreshment committee
served a <?eligbtful lunch, cafeteria
style. All who are at liberty to attend
are earnestly invited to have a per
sonal interest by being present at one
or all of the services of next Sunday.
Strangers especially welcome.
