importance of CHURCH GOING IS BEING STRESSED (OOWTINVKD FROM PA«M <»’*•>_ W<> can so deaden our conscience thul It will be no monitor at all. No matter In whut day of the world’s history we may live, sin Is still sin. "This must have been a wonderful world before sin came with its awful damning Influence on all that God had made. In that day there was no jealousy, nor hatred, nor malice, nor anger, nor selfishness, nor greed. There was no weakness, nor Impunity, nor drunkenness. Nor earache, nor heartache, nor back ache. Nor tears, nor sorrow, nor death in all God's universe. All of these curses came upon the earth as a result of sin. It was sin that drove our first parents out of the Garden of Eden; it was sin that caused Caln to kill Abel; it was sin that caused fire and brimstone to full on Sodom and Gomorrah; it was sin that took the life of Jesus ( hrlst, it was sin that caused thousands of devout Christians to die a martyr s death; it is sin that has brought on war. It is sin that is filling our police courts and insane asylums; it is sin that is breaking up homes and causing divorces; it is sin that will finally pull our souls down to an everlasting hell, if we don’t get out from under its power. "Without the help of God and the pardoning grace of Jesus Christ, no one can ever get away from his sin. W e cannot cover our sins, sin will out in the course of time. A man's sin will sooner or alter reveal itself in him or in his descendants. If our sins db not come to light here, we may be sure they will come to light ip the bright light of eternity. “Sin is one of the worst curses known to God or man. Every day that we tolerate sin in ourselves, it but strengthens itself for our final overthrow and destruction. We cannot afford to tolerate sin. Th ( > devil is working through sin and is looking for a chance to catch us off guard and pull us down to ruin. “Sin is a real thing; it will ruin our character, if given a chance. We ought to go to the great sin-bearer. Even though our sins be like scarlet, we can look unto Jesus Christ, who dieu in our place, and have salvation in His name.” "A Fishing Trip” will be the subject of Rev. Taylor’s sermon tonight. There will be ap rayer meeting at

7;00 o’clock at the church. The men’s prayer meeting will bo held Friday morning at the Industrial rooms lit 9:30. A combination prayer meeting und Bible reading’will be he’d at the church Friday afternoon at 2:30. We cannot win souls to Jesus Christ, utiles we pray for them. Baptist Church Th ( > service lust evening was helpful. Those present entered into the program of song and worship with interest. Rev. O. E. Miller spoke- on the subject, "A Select Crowd. ' "Many are called but few are chosen." The invitation is extended still today in this age of Grace. The select ones are those who will accept. Heaven will be peopled with a select company. Any one may enter the group if they will. Even In the select company there comes sometimes a person with the pride and audacity who will not put on a wedding garment but in the last great day of inspection he will be cast out. The message was based on the parable of Jesus in Matt. 22:1-14. This evening the message will be: Two Great Words of the Gosphel.” Welcome to those who come here. Christian Church Good atendance is still the rule at the Christian church. A large attendance is expected tonight and tomorrow night. Dr. MeKim will aid the pastor on these two nights. The non-church going public is in- - vited to hear this eloquent preacher. Zion Reformed Church A very clear and instructive messi age was delivered by the Rev. W. A. ’ Alspach at the Zion Reformed church ■ last night. His subject was, “Follow- ■ ing Christ," based on John 12:26, “If ; any man serve Me let him follow Me.” The speaker presented the i message in a threefold way: Follow- ■ ing Him (1) In Thought, (2) in Word, : (3) In Deed. "We perhaps give I Jesus the least attention in thought. • The business man thinks about his I Business. The pleasure seeker about ; his pleasure. A community is governI ed by the way the people think. 'As a man thinketh so is he.’ Our thoughts i are expresed in wortls. Through the ; avenu e of words we can praise, curse . or condemn. The gossiper is a nuis- , ance. ‘lt you canont speak a good > word of anyone, do not speak at all.' i No one will know the influence of ill spoken words but God alone. They - will end in eternity. To follow Christ . in work and ded we can do best by t giving up and giving for. We need]

to give to rthe kingdom and give up that which Is questionable and worldly, so that we may be a separate and distinct people. So Jesus say.-*, 'lf any man serve me let him think of Me. speak of Me and work for Me'." The G M. G. rendered the special music. The Rev. Mr. Alspach commented the work of the Girls’ Guild us being the best in the entire Fort Wayne classfs. We extend a cordial invitation to all, to our services tonight at 7:30 o’clock, when Rev. Alsptich will speak again. Tobacco Firm Declares Extra Cash Dividend New York.

The plea was vioced by A. H. Hinkle, maintenance superintendent of the Indiana state highway commission in an address before members of the school. “Increased motor traffic, higher speed and a larger number of accidents have made these measures necessary,” Hinkle said.

Jan. 20. —(United l*ress) —Leaf lettuce is a much better food than head lettuce, it was learned by the experiments recently conducted by Drs. John W. Christ, Marie Dye and O. C. Medlock at Michigan State College. The experiments were conducted with rats and lettuce was the only source of vitamin in the diet allowed the rodents. Previous tests showed that when vitamin is not present in the diet no growth is registered. —, o j Get the Habit—Trade at Home, It Pays

The fact » that the county, sectional and regional i tournaments are not far distant, and p the further fact that certain members on the team made the game last Frir day night with Kendallville a farce by |. their indifferent playing has caused .. drastic action on the part of school authorities. That Auburn has played second-rate basketball this season is not questioned. It is not because there is no " material on the team but because the . players do not feel the responsibility of obeying training rules. Late hours and a number of other infractions is y the reason for the dismissal of the J three players.
