DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 9. 1921

A CHEAT SERMON Evangelist Sand Pleased Large Audience at Union Chapel Church EXCELLENT MUSIC Revival Services Get Good Start in Church Few Miles East of the City. Union Chapel revival services are growing in attendance and interest. The choir of young people, under the direction of Mr. Walters, is doing splendid work. On Thursday night Miss Hanna, who directs the Bible study and personal work, sang the gospel number “He's a Friend of Mine.” Mr. Sand played "Safe in the Arms of Jesus” as a cornet solo. The music was well received by the congregation. Evangelist Sand took his text from Joshua 7-13. “There is an accursed thing in the midst of thee O Israel, and thou canst not stand before thine enemies until ye take away the accursed thing from among you.” He said in part: Israel was defeated that day not because of the strength of the enemy but because of internal weakness. I challenge you to find a single instance either in the Bible or in history where God's people have ever been defeatedbecause the enemy was stronger than they. It has always been due to the fact that some Achan in the camp of God has taken of the accursed thing, depleting the energies and destroying the spiritual vitality of the church. What is an accursed thing? In this case it was money and clothes; It may be any thing however - innocent in itself and robs the church of her power and imtkes her a laughing stock when she J outfit to be a conquering it rmy. "The ! ] most accursed thing in th’e church today is This was at the root of Achan sin. ‘I saw I coveted, _ 1 took.’ This is the spirit of the age . and the result is spiritual defeat for the Kingdom. A ten acre field becomes ' an accursed thing in the sight of God I ’ when the man who owns it robs God j I and starves his soul to pay for it. An automobile is an accursed thing in the I sight of God when it takes people away from church on Sunday and 4 leaves a heartbroken preacher to . face a lot of empty seats. “Next to covetousness pleasure „ madness is doing much to destroy the spiritual vitality. Every age has had v its sorrows. God pity the age that s has no pleasures. But I want to say to all the pleasure mad church mem- ■ bers, you are the ones who are making it so hard for us to do the work of the Kingdom here.”

TOM SLAUGHTER ESCAPES. Littlerock, Ark., Dec. 9.—(Special to Daily Democrat). —Tom Slaughter, notorious bandit of the southwest, staged one of tfye most daring and spec-, tacular prison breaks in southwestern criminal history early today when he escaped from the death cell of the state penitentiary here.

Swinging open the great gates of the penitentiary Slaughter with his companions made their escape about 2:30 a. tu.—five hours from the time he gained bis freedom from the death cell. No one was injured in the spectacular escape. Slaughter was under sentence of death for the alleged murder of a trusty at an Arkansas prison farm last September. —-■ - — 0- ——— "—* EX-SOLDIERS WILL HELP CHRISTMAS SEAL SALE Vincennes, Ind., Dec. 9.—Every American Legion member in Indiana will do what he can to keep down the spread of tuberculosis, according to State Commander Claude E. Gregg, of this eity. In a letter to Secretary Murray A. Auerbach, of the Indiana Tuberculosis Association Commander Gregg says: “I want to take this opportunity as State Commander of the American Legion of the Department of Indiana, of endorsing wholeheartedly the Tuberculosis Christmas Seal Sale. “I am satisfied that every legionaire in the State will do his full duty in assisting you in the sale of Christmas Seals for this year.

The quadruple agreemnt will be a general statement of policies in the Pacific and is a momentous step toward peace in that each part of the world. . Tn general it provides: 1. —That the territory of all the powers iu the Pacific shall be respected by the signatory powers, each being bound not to attack the possessions of the others. 2. —ln case of threatened hostilities, the powers agree to a "breathing spell”—probably six months—which is similar to the Bryan arbitration treaties which the United States now has with more than thirty nations. 3. —The powers would be morally bound to consult each other before taking any action in the Pacific. 4. —The abolition of the Anglo- Japanese alliance. With the Pacific understanding also will be the agreement on non-forti-fication of the Pacific islands. This probably will be dealt with in a separate pact. PLAY FORT WAYNE HIGH

JOHNSON SAYS HE CAN EAT ANYTHING Farmersburg Man Tells How He Built Himself Up to Renewed Strength. "Whatever It takes to build a man up and make him feel tine all the time, Tanlac has it," said J. Dona Johnson, Farmersburg, Ind. "1 was in wretched health for four years and tor the last two years especially had been bothered with stomach trouble and was feeling run-down an<l worn out. “The first thing Tanlac did for me was to give me an appetite and almost before I realised it, I was able to eat things I hadn't dared touch for years. Tanlac simply put my stomach in first-class order and I feel lino all the time now." Tanlac is the result of years of study, experimentation and research by some of the world’s greatest chemists. Hence its merit. Tanlac is sold in Decatur by Smith, Yager & Falks and by leading druggists everywhere.
