Bowman? They say that one day

stands on the knoll before
Stuart's drugstore every day and
preaches, to ask why was he always
out there. The man, a re-j

Johnson (Philadelphia radio
preacher) glared at him and'
said "Why, I'm waiting here for
Jesus. Haven't you heard He is
going to pass right by here?" To
