VANGELIST MAKES STRONG
IMPRESSIONJN SERMONS
Dr. Butler Preaches first sermon Jn
"Little Brick Church" Revival
Tuesday Evening.
Dr. Ttutler. the former great Detroit
Tabernacle Evangelist, preached his
first sermon Tuesday night to a full
house. The stewards are planning; to
get chairs and make small changes in
ordor to accommodate a larger num
ber of people. ,
His first sermon was refreshing, and
encouraging. He took for his text the
14th verBe of the 48th Psalm, touching
in the course of his discourse the gerat
omnipresence of God, taking great
care to hold out the personality of God
as opposed to the pantheistic concep
tlon. Then for a time ho brought out
In a vivid way the unchnngeableness
of God, his immutability. He said that
surely a church in God s business as
long as the "Little Brick Churcn lias
beon has seen time of refreshing from
God. and that God bein; the same yes
terday, today and forever, could again
revive his people. In the application
of his sermon he showed how that He
was our God on the condition of our
acceptance of Him.
Tho revival is taking on new inter
est now many are becoming interested
but we must not make the mistake of
'putting off" things until the last day
We must pray today! Don't say to
morrow.

SEARCH FOR MISSING KIN
Clermont County, Ohio, Man, Missing
Since June, Thought to Be
In Kentucky.
Lexington, Ky., Sept. 20. Howard,"
John and Harry Jackson, three broth
ers, and James Evanshine, a brother-
in-law, all of Clermont county, south-
Ulilo, are in Lexington today in
search of information that might lead
to the whereabout of their brother,
James R. Jackson, 46 years old, a wid
ower, handy man on a farm, who has
not been heard from sinco June 1.
The only clue they have upon which
they are working is that a man named
Charles R. Jackson, answering to the
description oflhe brother, said to be of
Owen county and previously of south
ern Ohio, was found dead in a tobacco
field , several weeks ago, The men
learned this at Owenton, where their
brother worked for several months. W.
Bentley, Owen county farmer, by
whom Jackson was employed, read In
Uie paper that a man named Charles
R. Jackson had dropped dead and con
eluded It might be his former employe.
The brothers say that efforts to find
the lost brother In Owen county
proved fruitless. They returned to
their homes at New Richmond and
then motored to Lexington to continue
the search. -
Neither the police, county officers
nor the coroner have records of the
man's death and an examination of the
newspaper files In the city failed to
give any Information.
On August 15 a man named Stephen
Carroll, of Pendloton county, was
found dead in a field near Grendale
station, this county, and the body was
sent to Owen county by Coroner John
Anglln for burial. This case Is thought
to be tho one seen by the Owen county
people.

GREAT PICTIIRF
OHLMI rllllUIIL
OF REAL HOME LIFE
THURSDAY NIGHT
People of Maysville Given Opportunity
To See "The Old Nest" on
Next Thursday and
Friday.
When "The Old .Vest" comes to the
Washington Theater ou Thursday and
Friday, the people of Maysville will
havo a chance to see a picture that has
been hailed by critics and reviewers as
the most satisfying all-Ameiicau pic
ture that bus yet been produced. The
theme, that of a niothor who sees her
six children leave her, one by one, Is
common to American families. All the
pclgnaucy of feeling that those leave-
taking arouse in real live have been
caught ou the screen.
Rupert Hughes Is the author of this
unusual tale of mother love, lie has
sougni to present a cross-section or a
universal theme as aimlied to an
American family. All the joys and sor
rows connected with raising a family
havo been dramatized. Each of the
children grow to manhood or wouiRn-
hood with his own individual interests
then leaves the old nest to follow the
call of his desires. Only their mother
is left In her loneliness and her mem
ories. But ,as in every American fam
lly, the young remember the old nest
and return to It.
The picture was produced by Gold-
wyn and was directed by Reginald
Barker. Mary Alden plays the old
mother, and her performance has been
said to bo a masterpiece of screen
acting.
