A lot'ta times when we cant find a way out of onr own difficulties, we can take a lesson from the other fella. I know a bunch of reporters that went out to get the success story of a man because he had been wiped out in the market and then in a few months, he came back stronger than ever. They told him they admired his courage for having come back after losing everything and they thought his story would be an inspiration to their readers. The man put a cigar in his mouth and he got up and paced the floor with his thumbs in his suspenders and says, "Well, boys, it wasn't easy." He said, "When I lost everything, I didnt mope around and get discouraged and give up the ghost.

No Sir! I gritted my teeth and borrowed $5,000 from my brother!" THE UloAJfc OF 0jUU4 I 3 PERFORMANCE Rev. Ed A. Krause Preaching At Out-Of-Door Services Each Evening -if The series of open-air services which will be held every night this week by the Concordia Lutheran church on the church-lawn, corner of Hays and Dead-eiick, got off to an auspicious start last evening. A large congregation attended the service, and considerable enthusiasm was manifested for these open-air services. The Rev.

Ed A. Krause. pastor of the local congregation, will deliver all the sermons in this series. Last night he used Romans 3. 22-24 as his text, and speaking on the subject of "Mankind Overboard, said in part: "Yes.

spiritually speaking, mankind is overboard! Contrary to popular opinion and the belief of modernism, mankind is not, in its natural state, in the ship with God.

.30. Rep. Walter Chandler maintained today he will get additional PWA projects for Memphis "just as soon as it is possible for anyone to get them." He had been criticized by City Engineer Will Fowler and Mayor Watkins Overton. Fowler and the mayor charged Chandler with leaving Washington while important Memphis PWA applications were at stake and with advising them that "Memphis was asking too much." The statements and counter-statements, some observers said, indicated a possible rift between the congressman and the E. H.

Crump Shelby, county political organization. Chandler succeeded Crump as representative from the ninth district (Shelby county). "I sent Congressman Chandler several wires expressing the importance of our program, only to learn he had departed for Memphis before a single project of our list had received official approval, at the very time projects for other cities were being announced daily and other congressmen were on the job," said the mayor in a statement yesterday. Fowler's statement said "Congressman Chandler called me (in Washington) and said he believed Memphis was asking too much, and that he was going home which he did." Chandler replied "City Engineer Fowler evidently misunderstood my telephone con versation." Both Fowler and Overton said Senator K. D.

McKellar "has done everything possible to aid in securing approval of our Memphis PWA projects." OLD VANDERBILT ALUMNUS DIES DAISY, Aug. 30. Dr. James T. Bell, 86, attendance officer in the Hamilton County Education Department for the past eight years, died yesterday.

mankind will find itself a helpless prey to the cruel waves of sin, with no ship in sight to save too late! "But what is to be done? What can be done? A man overboard cries for help; clutches the lifeline that is thrown out to him. Thus a sinner, seeing and realizing his deplorable condition, asks: 'What must I do to be saved? and clutches the life-line of the gospel invitation that is thrown out to Mm: 'Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be The saving gospel messages of God's word, the glad tidings of a Savior from sin, constitute the lifeline thrown out to mankind overboard, to you, dear friend, whoever you may be. Take hold of it; it will save you! It will draw you into the ship of God's habitation cf God's holy spirit; it will turn your entire being from a service of sin and make of you an eager and anxious servant of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ; it will help you through all the trials and tribulations of this world and help you to reach the shores of your eternal reward in heaven. In the event of rain, the services will be held in the church, it was said today. NEW MEMBER OF VANDY FACULTY NASHVILLE, Aug.

30. (JP) Dr. C. S. Zeek.

deck of righteousness under man's feet; his soul in the raging sea of sin. Nothing but despair, death and doom lie ahead! Nor is-this a mere scare-cry; it is a grim and terrible fact! The Bible, as for instance our text, is very clear and outspoken in showing the lost of humanity; and even secular history and the career of humanity confirms this Biblical truth. Io say that humanity is fundamentally good, that the world is getting better, that mankind in spite of its sinful condition is still in the ship and is only more or less seasick, is to deny not only the clear and simple teachings of the Bible but also to contradict the testimony of history and human experience. "And it is man's own fault tnat he has fallen overboard. Though it was the devil who made a beginning of sin, and though it was the devil who tempted Adam and Eve to follow him in his disobedience against God's will, he is not to blame for the sinful condition of mankind any more than God is to be blamed, God, who created man good and holy and in his own image.

Man was neither pushed out of the boat of God, nor pulled into the sea by the devil. He sprang overboard of his own accord. "And the result is that man has come short of the glory of God. He is alienated from God. He is under the wrath of God, deserving nothing but eternal punishment and condemnation.

It isn't a case of merely being sick, but still alive; of being slowed up, bat still able to go; of hanging on the rein, but still on board. No, humanity is actually overboard, spiritually dead, and. if left to itself, hopelessly and Helplessly lost. And this is the condition of all human beings.
