Now it Cakes all te praying and preaching of t|ie people to keep a flicker of fire burning from one revival to another. Churches that are having no revivals in our day have little fire in them. “The Ixtrd haV.used a very reaJis- ' tic picture to portray his digust for the person, who pretends to be a follower of him, but who is luke-warm in his heart. The Lord said, ‘I know thy works that thou art neither cold nor hot; I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm. and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth’. If we do not have the fire of God burning in our souls, God Almighty does not like us one bit better than we like luke-warm water, we are nauseated to God. “What was the great characteristic mark of the great western revival? Go hack to the history ot those days and you will find that John WeJley and Charles Wesley wiere emphasizing continuously Ute great need of saved men and women to tarry for the baptism of the Holy Spirit and because they emphasized that great truth, the fire was burned in the hearts of the people. We can liave a great revival of religion in America, if we will pay the price for Jt. What we need is a great outpouring of the Spirit of God. ‘‘Heter liaptized three thousand people in one day, but only a hundred and twenty stayed for the baptism of fire. It is not very difficult to get anyone to be pabtized with water, buit it is quite a different thing when we ask people to burn omt. the sin ami ungodliness in their heart. Peter did not amount to very much, until he received the touch of fire. We will be able to hear the voice of God when we have been touched by the Spirit of God. “The locomotive might have power to haul a large number of cars, hot if there is no fire in the fire box. it caunot pull. We can equip, we can modernize we can establish new systems and we can have the finest running churih under heaven, but if we do not have the spirit of fire we cannot do very much. Let us get on fire, let us tarry, we are passing this, way but once, we are going to meet God one of these tays and we are going to be held responsible for the grace and power we might have had, if we would have met the conditions" Tonight, Rev. Taylor will preach on “The Devil's Partners.’' Everyone is urged to attend these services Tonight the men of the church aiv asked to attend. There will be a prayer meeting this evening at 7: (if) oe'ock. Much good is being accomplished titrough these prayer rivetings. Baptist Church ( onsidering the stormy evening the attendance at the Baptist church was splendid. The interest and spirit in the service was excellent and all present felt it good to be there. Rev. O E. Miller spoke on the subject, “Dry Bones." After giving a brief interpertation of the message God brought to the prophet Ezekiel’s heart in the 27th chapter of his book the speakei drew some suggestive lesson from the present day church, the spfrtua’ Israelii The dry bones might well ! represent the dry, unspiritual condi tion of many church members. Ezek iel was commanded to prophesy to the | valley of bones, so are w c given the orders to preach, “Preach my word ito them, said the Lord. As he preach- | e<l bones began to come together until skeletons were strewn over, the valley and finally flesh came upon th t skeletons. Skeletons are necessary framework but the churches may lie full of skeletons of organization and formality, and even have the appear--1 ance of a body, maybe beautiful but I not wotth a picayune until the breath of God comes in to give lite. When life (ante Into the valley full of corpses then the prophet saw a great army of living human beings. ' lieu the Spirit of God comes into a church there will result an iuviucable «

army against which no foe can be successful. JI The subject ot the message this, evening will be. "which way are you headed ?’’ No service tomorrow evening but we look forward to a great . day on Sunday. Evangelical Church Over forty persons braved the storm ■ and were in attendance the revival ’ services at the Evangelical church last night; there were sixteen in the ' church. From the beginning ot the. meetings singing has been a strong ' feature and last night was no excep- ’ tion. This evening in connection with the senior choir the junior choir ' will also sing. Rev. Loose will preach ’ this evening. ' Prof. Gerber brought a very strong sermon last evening ou the subject of sin. He first defined sin in Scriptural language. Sin is the transgression of the law. There is the sin of thought, of doubt. °f disobedience, and «f neglect. Sin naturally falls under two heads: that of omission and commission. All unrighteousness is sin. There are three things sin does: it kills the conscience, it kills the sense ot self-respect, and it kills the will-power. We have a remedy for sin: the blood of Jesus Christ, God's Son, cleanses from all sin. Another interesting feature of last evenings service was the presence of Mr. Race, a Christian commercial traveling man, a member of the Gideons, who sang a number of special songs, among them being one very interesting number entitled ‘‘Keep • Dem Cookies on de Lower Shelf.” Last evening was one of the best services so far; a deep spirit of interest is growing. United Brethren In spite of the snow last night there was a large attendance at the. United Brethren church, and the services wer e perhaps the best of the series so far. Rev. H. E. Conn, was again present and directed the music, and Mrs. John Hill had charge of the ievotion period. The Rev. M. K. Richardson, of Fort Wayne, brought i wonderful message on the Decision jf Christians. Rev. Richardson used as the basis of, hfs seromu Luke 9: 57-62. It was a masfterful presentaion of this portion of God’s word and the folk were well paid for their .resence last night. The consecration call given by Rev. Mr. Coun brought a goodly response of the people and he presence of tlxe Holy Spirit was ■vident. Tonight the message will be giv»n by Rev. Conn, ?!♦ Terre Haute, and we believe that this efening’s service will be the largst’ in atmdance for :he week and we are certain that -.her e w * ll 1)6 a wonderful message. The pastor urges the members aud friends to hear the message tonight tnd he considers it a wonderful opportunity that h e got Rev. Conn to •emain over for this service. Rev. Coun has assisted Rev. Smith in previous years, and comes highly econimended as a speaker. Zion Reformed Church There were only sixty people who ventured out in the deep snow to attend the services at the Zion Reformed church last night. The Rev F. H. Rupnow spoke ou the subject, “The 1 Earning Capacity ot Discipleship,” oasing his message on pie words of Jesus. ‘‘Follow Me and I will make you fishets of men'. The speaker said' in part: "Jesus was advertising His' school. He used the same methods as other Jewish rabbis, but instead of, going among the wealthy and great he went to the humblest of humble and tailed fishermen into his service. Jesus wished to impress upon his students ,n His day, just what WE are in need of today. Discipleship in the school of Jesus pays. It has an earning capacity. Universities and colleges cf our land offer inducements to its students in che way of positions. Jesus in opening dis school of life*ls offering great inducements. His disciples shall have an earning capacity. We need the fruit cf Christianity in this life. It is here that we have our joys, successes, tear and cares. The Christian life hat bears no fruit is sick. “Our discipleship in the scnosl of Jesus relates itself to three things Myself, The Family and The Social Life. If we as individuals possess no liscipleship, then we cannot give anything. We hall fail In our religion if .here is no personality back of it. We need tc put a value on ourselves. Not o In* proud or selfish but to think highly of ourself as a life that belongs to God and needs to be kept pure and clean. Secondly, Hie family is America’s greatest problem. Nearly all the Jclicinccies of life can be traced back to the home. If the problem of life will be solved in the home, all is solved. it can be solved in the school and discipleship of Jesus. The third thing to which the discipleship of Jesus reales itself is the Social life. The hind of a life we arc fellowshiping with will show itself. '1 have befn watching you' niitny say, which means Unit they have taken note of our everyday life: in the school and discipleship of Jesus we create williiu ujjJJjut inward spiri-

' tual fellowship, lu life it Is uot bigness I of business that counts, but bigness I of heart and ou!". j Miss Della Sellemeyer sang a very appropriate selection. Is It I, Is You?” Tonight at 7:30 the Rev. Mr. Rupnow will speak again, his sermon I subject will be "What Lack I Yet ? The members and friends of the church are missing a great treat of their lives If they fail to hear this very talented and impressive speaker, j , —o TOW-IN TRUCKS HAVE BUSY DAY (FownwrßD fhom racr eww> south to Monroe are in fairly good condition, and paths have been made by the traffic. Several of the eastwest roads are still impassable, but it is thought that sufficient tracks will be made on these roads to insure safe driving by night. The temperature was slightly below ] normal this morning, and weather predictions were to the effect that cold weather was in store for this community for a day or two yet. < o —— NOTICE All members of the 'Reformed church choir are urged to remain after church services tonight for practice. o College Basketball Manchester. 38; Western State Normal 29.
