SOWER STORY USED AS TEXT Novel Interpretation Given to Well Known Bible Parable By Rev. Rusk GOSPEL EASILY UNDERSTOOD Rev. Rusk used as his text for his sermon Sunday, March 24, the parable of the sower found in the 13th chapter of Matthew. He divided the parable into three parts, first the sower, second the seed, and third the soil. The sower he likened unto the minister or preacher who spreads the gospel, the seed he likened unto the gospel itself, and the soil he compared with the human mind. Rev. Rusk divided the human mind into four parts. The mini who cannot understand the gospel is like the seed that fell by the wayside. The man who receives the gospel but falls away from it is like the seed that fell on stony places. Times who receive the Word who get in bad company and soon give up Christ are like the seed that fell among the thorns and are choked by the thorns when they grow up. They who hear the gospel and try to live right and accept Christ as their Savior are like the seed that fell on good soil and bore fruit. Rev. Rusk stated that the gospel was so easy to understand that any person could understand it and that there is no reason why anybody should not be like the seed which falls on the good soil. CARDS OF THANKS We wish to thank the officers and boys of the school for their kind expression of sympathy at the occassion of thes death of Mrs. F. A. Ziegfeld our wife and mother. Mr. F. A. Ziegfeld and family. ATTENDS FUNERAL Frank D. Johnston, parole agent, and wife attended the funeral of their cousin Mrs. Elizebeth Lewis of Milan, Ripley County, Ind. Tuesday, March 26. Indiana Boys' School Pledge AS A PLEDGE OF LOYALTY TO MY COUNTRY, I PROMISE to obey its laws and the rules of this school. I will be honest, truthful, and industrious and will not use vulgar or profane language. I will live a clean life and act squarely with others. I will• be kind to the weak; respectful to women and courteous to all. God helping me I will serve my country, and honor my flag, by striving to be a useful citizen and a manly man.
