Regular And Reliable Service Ladies And Children Cordially Invited J. B. ORR, Prop. S surance remains the foundation stone of the Christian Church. It takes courage to cherish this John's Recollection of the Risen radiant faith. Our day is one of Lord. Lesson for March 28th. John 20:19-29. Golden Text: Revelation 1:17, 18. Easter comes with its call to faith. Of course Easter has in it the elements of fact as well as of faith. The cry of the angel, “He is not here, he has risen,” may be considered a statement, of a fact. Our lesson chapter tells us of an empty grave discovered by Mary, Peter, and John, of the grief of Mary, her vision of the angels, her discovery of the risen Jesus, the evening appearance of the Master to his disciples, the doubt of Thomas, and a second appearance when the scepticism of Thomas was triumphantly overcome. This is the Easter story, and how beau tiful it is! But more significant than the Easter story is the Easter faith. The story does not tell us a great deal. We realize, when we read it, that IN MEMORY OF BROTHER J. K. WHITE. IVho Died January 9th, 1937. “Leaves have their time to fall, and flowers to wither at the North wind’s cold blast, but thou. Oh, Death! hast all seasons for their own”. Once again a brother Mason, having completed the designs writ ten for him on life’s trestle board has passed through the portals of Eternity and entered the Grand Lodge of the new Jerusalem and has received, as his reward, the white stone with a new name writ ten thereon. And, Whereas, The all wise and merciful Master of the universe has called from labor, to refreshment our beloved and respected brother, J. K.
