THE VOICE OF BETHEL
REV. HOWARD E. MINAKER
WANTED—ALL SiNNERS
And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need
not a physician; but they that are sick. 1 came to call the
righteous but sinners to repentance. Luke 5: 31 and 32.
These words of Jesus fell like foreign speech on the ears
of the religious leaders of His day.
His PREVAILING PASSION in coming to earth was to
RESCUE THE PERISHING.
•The gospel of Jesus Christ CROWNS BEGGARS (Lazurus)
glorifies wretches (the dying thief) and saves all sinners who will
come to "The fountain filled with blood" (the whosoever) all
other forms of religiousactivity must fall into SECONDARY
IMPORTANCE to the business of SAVING SOULS from hell and
destruction.
It is tragically true that there is an appalling lack of con-
cern for the welfare of ETERNITY BOUND SOULS.
Behold the compassion of the Master, who had not where I
to lay His sacred head. Who, though He was RICH, yet for
OUR SAKES He became poor that ye through His poverty might
be rich.
-Out—righteousness is altogether unacceptable to the Al-
mighty as the meads of salvation.
What shall I do .,with Jesus? as asked and answered by'
Pilate of old, MUST BE FACED BY EACH ONE.
What will you do with Jesus?
Neutral you cannot be;
Some day your heart will be asking '
What will He do with me. •

HANDY FISHERMAN
Two Auburn anglers are stilt
trying to figure' out how it
happened after a peculiar fish-
ing incident at the mouth bf
tile Maitland River, Goderich,
Wednesday evening of last
week. Casting high, widelind
handsome, Harry Sturdy saw
his reel suddenly become lOose
and drop into deep water at
the river mouth. He gave up
hopes of locating it. But his
fishing pal, Keith Arthur, fish-
ed on. On his very first cast
after Harry had lost his reel,
Keith felt something pretty
heavy on his line: He had
visions of a big pike being
landed. Up came the hook
and on the end of it was
Harry's lost reel. Quick work,
Keith, and a chance in a
thousand or two!
Miley Hits Three
-Homers As Locals
Defeat Walkerton
Shelley Miley was the hero of
Monday might's WOAA "Big Seven"
Fastball contest when he slammed
out three home runs to lead the
Godetich Flyers to a 10-3 victory
over Walkerton.
It was Walkerton's first game on
the Goderich field. The teams
had been scheduled to play the
first home game here late in May,
but that contest was rained out.
, Walkerton grabbed a two -run
margin in the first half of the first
inning, but Goderich got both of
those back in the first
and ' second. Then Walkerton
got its third and last
run in the third and Goderich got
that one back in its half of the
inning. Then it was the Flyers'
game all the way. The locals add-
ed ohe in each of the fourth and
'fifth, three, in the sixth and one
each in the seventh and eighth.
The win kept Goderich in' fourth
place, but moved the locals one
game closer to the Walkerton nine,
who hold down third position.
Next game here will be tomorrow
night, when the ' Flyers meet
Lucknow.

Hensall Trounced
By Dodgers, -27-2
First game of 1953 in the ladies'
softball series was played at Agri-
cultural Park on Friday night, the
Hensall team filling a scheduled
date with the local Dodgers. For
the formal opening of the season
Town Councillor Pennington tossed
the first hall, with Sheriff Hill
behine, the plate and Mayor Huck -
ins. at bat. His Worship knocked
out a two -bagger and was allowed
a }come run.
The Dodgers lined up as follows:
Audrey McCabe, 1b; Jean Fuller,
3b; Maxine Martin, If; Pearl Mor-
land, c; Muriel Hatlin, cf; Dorothy
McCabe, 2b; Vi Fuller, ss; Audrey
Harrison, rf; Nell Foster, p. These
were all members of last year's
champion team, with the exception
of Muriel Hatlin. Another new-
comer, Donna Baird, pitched • for
one innings and Kay McKinnon
(who, by the way, has qualified as
a teacher and will preside at the l
Dunlop school after the holidays)'
took over the mound for the last
three innings of a even -innings
game. Other. members of the
team, Peg Wood, Adeline Riehl,
Margaret Emerson and Ruth Cur-
ran,, took a hand in the game as
subs.
Hensall provided little opposi-
tion, and the final score was 272
for the Dodgers. :
Exhibition Games Planned
The return game at Hensall was
scheduled for 'Wednesday of ' this
week and Manager, MacDonald
hope to make it a doubleheader
for t Dodgers by taking on the
Exeter team the same evening in-
stead of going to Exeter .on Fri-
day as scheduled.
"Mac" has several exhibition
games in prospect to provide some
snappy softball for the local fans.
The Dodgers go to Stratford on
Saturday for an 8 p.m. game with
the Stratford Police Kadettes and

ern Ontario's crack nines to Gode-
rich during the season.
