DECLARES WE MUST SUFFER
"It will take the sacrifices which
war will bring to awaken the people
of the United States to the spiritual
exaltation developed In Europe among
the warring nations," sail! Henry P.
Davidson chairman of the Red Cross
War Council last Saturday at Wash-
ington. Mr. Davidson stated that he
doubted if more than one per cent of
t!«e people of this country realized
that we are fighting for the very ex-
istence of this country as well as the
traditions upon which this country
was founded. He said he believed
that through the Red Cross we could
render a service to our allies and
bring forcefully to our own people a
sense both of their obligation and op-
portunity.
CRYING FOR HELP
Lots of It in Cordell But Daily Grow-
ing Leas.
The kidneys often cry for help.
Not another organ in the whoie
body more delicately constructed;
Not one more important to health.
The kidneys are the filters of the
blood.
When they fail thp blood becomes
foul and poisonous.
There can be no health where there
is poisoned blood:
Backache is one of the frequent in-
dications of kidney trouble.
ft is often the kidney's cry for help.
Heed it.
Read what Doan's Kidney Pills
have done for overworked kidneys.
, Read what Doan's have done for
Cordell people.
Mrs. J. P. Sand tin. Cordell, says:
"I had weakness across the small of^
my back and couldn't lift anything."
When I attempted to stoop, sharp
pains shot through my back. On one
occasion I was compelled to go to
bed on account of the misery. My
; head uched and 1 had <Uzzy spells
that staged for hours. Doan's Kid-
I nev Pills were recommended and I
used some. 1 received more relief
than from all the other medicines I
had ever taken. The pains disap-
peared from my back and I was free
[from headaches.,too."

Gospel Meeting
Conducted by A. C. Bell Evangelist
There will be a s ^ries of Gospel Meetings held in
Cordell, on* the block just south of the jail; the meet-
ings will be held by non-sectarian people, and if you
are a lover of pure old-time Bible doctrine, you will
miss a blessing if you fail to attend this meeting.
The Bible will be ] i ached without compromise,
sin condemned in all forms, and a chance given for
anyone who is interested in his soul to get spiritual
help. This will not be a so-called holiness show or a
great display of words, or a tumbling in the straw, as
you have probably seen in the past, but will be done
decently and in order.
The meeting will begin Friday night, June 22nd,
and will continue indefinitely. Everybody will be
cordiaily invited to attend and t ike a p irt in this
meeting, especially preachers. We #ant to hear
what the Lord isdoing for you. Tnis is a good time
for the people to wake up to their spiritual condition.
"In the evening it shall be light" says the Bible—
Zechariah 14-7. "Come, iet us reason together say-
eth the Lord of host"—Isa. 1-18. It may be too late
one day if you put off your soul's salvation. Again
we invite you to come.
