and 7:30 p. m. Predicted by Pastor Elder Taylor G. Bunch Sees Change from Human to Divine Sovereignty. Elder Taylor G.

Bunch spoke this morning in the Seventh-day Ad-ventist Tabernacle on the subject. "The Sure Word of Prophecy." He declared that there are 1,000 distinct prophetic utterances in the Bible and about 900 have been completely and literally fulfilled and that the remaining 100 are now In process of fulfillment or apply to events in connection with and following the second advent of Christ. "The very fact that not one pre diction has failed in the past is evi dence that the remaining prophecies will be fulfilled at their appointed time," he declared. Continuing, Elder Bunch said in part: "The sands in time's hourglass have almost all run out and the world is on the verge of events of the greatest magnitude involving a new order of things for the whole world; a change from human to divine sovereignty. Surely no sane person doubts the desperate need of a change of administration of earthly things.

Divine prophecy predicts just such a change to take place in the near future." "Peter declared that the prophetic word is 'more sure' than the natural senses. He and bis two companions had seen Cnrist glorified on the Mount of Transfiguration and had heard the voice of the Father. While this event was an evidence that Jesus was indeed the Son of God and that the Transfiguration was the result of His divinity flashing through the veil of His humanity, the fact that every event of His life was a fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies was still more sure. "The dream given to King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon and interpreted by Daniel, and the vision of Daniel recorded in the seventh chapter of his book, each give a panoramic view of human history from that day to the second coming of Christ and the establishment of his everlasting kingdom, and in each nrophecy but one verse remains to be fulfilled. Chapter 11.

the longest single prophecy in the Scriptures, has all been fulfilled except a few of the closing statements referring to present world events. The same is true in regard to Christ's great prophecy recorded in Matthew 24, and the visions of the seven churches, seven seals, seven trumpets, and other prophecies of the Apocalypse. No careful student of the Scriptures and especially of the prophetic portion can question the nearness of the consummati of human history under the rei of sin. The Bible in many places promises a brighter day, and that day is about to dawn." FAITH UNFOLDING TOPIC "The Unfolding of Faith" is the topic chosen by the Rev. E.

L. Todd for his sermon Sunday in the Second Baptist church. Miss Liller Eu-banks will sing the consecration solo. Mrs. F.

O. Handley will lead the young people's meeting at 7 p. m. and the topic of discussion will be, "When Young People Marry." There will be a musical program at 8 p. m.

Games were played and refreshments were served. iiiiiiiimiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuiiiiniiii Good Taste Today By EMILY POST iiiiiiimiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiimiiim As I wrote in my column only a few days ago. the majority of wedding presents that are sent to a bride are sent by those who are not only willing that the bride shall exchange something not useful for something she may really need, but that she shall be able to choose something in place of a gift that duplicates one probably many-rshe already has. Most people buy every wedding present with the understanding that the store will gladly exchange it if the bride prefers something else. But that this is not understood by all givers is made plain in this let ter: "I received a wedding present from a friend of my husband's mother some one I had never met, and whom I never expected to have call at my house.

The present was some thing which although beautiful in itself, was entirely out of harmony with everything we had, and we could never have used it. So I ex changed it at the store for some thing my husband- really wanted But yesterday six months later this lady paid me an unexpected visit and explained that she had ordered her present through a young friend who was with her, that she had taken such pains selecting it, and asked if they might see it. The request found me so off guard that after fumbling for an excuse, I ended miserably by saying that the present was still packed away with other things. Really, Mrs. Post, the whole experience was terribly embarrassing! (1) What should I have said? 2 And was I wrong in exchanging this present?" As already noted, it is considered entirely proper to exchange presents.

and even though it may cause certain givers chagrin to have their gifts exchanged especially if the present was not one of many dupli-cats and therefore one that couldn't have been liked! The only safe thing to do is to know which people are going to care about your keeping their presents! But you are reauy not to be blamed since you couldn't have known about this stranger. THE FUTURE IN-LAWS Dear Mrs. Post: My sister's future in-laws have made no attempt to get to know us. They are nice to my sister, but they haven't called -on mother or invited our family to their house. Mother feels that they may not approve of us, as a family, be cause it is true there have been a few dark sheep in my father's family.

My sister is the "whitest of the lambs." However, our immediate family has always been above criticism. I know mother is hurt She can't make up her mind that they don't know what is polite, and is taking their discourtesy personal ly. I myself think they may be ex pecting us to make the first move. How can we find this out? Answer: Your sister should ask her fiance, and take his advice as to what to do. Be sure that your stationery and phraseology is correct, whenever you write a letter.
