Pythian Sister* Fourth Abraham was 100 and Sarah, his wife, 90 and God promised Abraham that a son would be born to them. Abraham gave no thought to his own body now as good as dead, he being 100, nor yet that Sarah was far past the age of child-bearing. But strong in faith Abraham believed that what God had promised, that he was able to per form. And true enough, in due time Issac the son was born, and Abraham’s faith was justified. AND FOR YOU — Does the Bible at Ephesians 2:12 point to you? It says that the lost are without Christ, having no hope and without God in the world. If that passage means you, then like Abraham have faith in God. Believe him in his word that Christ died for you. Believe and God gives you eternal life. With that new life, there comes new urges, ways and days that prove the new life. Lean always, all your weight on Christ. SUM IT UP—Abraham stag gered not at the promise if God through unbelief, but was strong in faith giving glory to God, beipg fully persuaded that what God had promised, that he was able to perform.—BIBLE. What for you? This space paid for by a Port land business man. Regular meeting,: 2 & 4 Weds., 8 p.m. Vernonia Temple No. 61 Meeting«: I.O.O.F. Hall and —GEO. N. TAYLOR Portland. Oregon V. F. W. 116 Vernonia, Oregon Second Father at 100 MIST — Mrs. Austin Dowling and son, Bernard, were Sunday motorists to DeLake to view the strange creature that washed up on the beach there. It was hauled up by the aquarium. We cannot describe it but from a little dis tance it looked like a big heap of sheep’s wool, light grey. We could not tell which was the head or tail. It was a curious looking beast. You could not stay close by too long, as it had an awful odor.
