j of the members, and only the exceedingly bad conditions of the streets kept the crowd from being larger on Thursday night. Tiie pastor R. W. Stoakes, has been straight forward in his preaching of a simple gospel that any one can understand. He has said that since his church pretends to live and work In Decatur It must face the city's ills. That some of the illness Is to be found , i in the lives of at least some of his I ohureh members and the other , ■ members of churches in the city. ' That the physician must first heal . I Itself. He unfalteringly set forth , some of the evils tliat were well , known secrets in all walks of society. He has been free to say Just . where some -of these secrets are to be found. He has made it known that he felt that if these devils wore to be cast out It would never be done by churches whose members at least to some degree were indulging themselves in the same abominations. The service i« looked forward to, this Friday night as one of the > great song fests of the week. The last two nights the pastor has al1 lowed the choir to rest a bit, but he warned them last night that tonight would lie one of the best sings yet enjoyed. He urged every singer to be in hie or her place. Evangelical Church In spite of the severe weather last night there was a large audience present at the Evangelical churfh. The evening was especially designated as Young People's Night.

It is the New Oakland Eight with smart new bodies by Fisher. || | Superior Performance The New Oakland Eight develops 85 horsepower and is the first stock car of its size and weight to employ an engine of such high power.

and streets with a sheet of ice and hampering public utilities. The Wabash river at Vincennes neared the high level of the 1913 flood. but the weather bureau did not expect a recurrence of the 1911 conditions. The temperature drop probably averted a flood at Fort Wayne as the rain changed to sleet, giving the rivers a chance to recode. Wabash and White rivers continued to rise at alarming rates throughout central and southern Indiana, but after some further rise, it is expected tile peak of the high water threat will be reached soon. Southern Indiana farmers living in the lowlands were removing their belongings to higher ground as waters from swollen streams crept higher, destroying unharvested corn and winter wheat. Public utilities, probably the heaviest losers from the onslaught >f the sleet and rain, were struggling to restore light, power and telephone lines, torn down by sleet forming on the wires. Crews of linemen worked all night attempting to restore service on lines that have been out for over 24 hours. Ciawfordsville was entirely cut

off from outside telephone communication. . One death was reported from Vincennes, Mary Lou Smith, 4, drowning when she fell into the swollen Wabash. Harvey Mathews, Warsaw, Winona Interurban line motorman, was burned when he came in contact with a power wire. Indianapolis reported a few leaks In the White river levee, although the stream at that point was below flood level. The river was rising at the rate of an Inch an hour. All lines of the Postal Telegraph Cable company were out of order except those to Cincinnati and New York.

Eight-Cylinder Smoothness The New Oakland Eight has all the smoothness which results from the overlapping power impulses inherent in eight-cylinder engine design. In addition, it enjoys exclusive mechanical advantages which make it even smoother and more delightful to drive. Sound Basic Design Several of the engineers who participated in creating General Motors' first eight back in 1914 were responsible for the develop-

New bodies by Fisher make this latest Pontiac Big Six more beautiful than ever. Greater Smoothness and Safety The smoothness of Pontiac's 60-horsepower engine is further increased by the use of improved type rubber engine mountings. Pontiac's large non-squeak four-wheel brakes have been made even more efficient. A new sloping non-glare windshield also adds to its safety. Handling ease is increased through the use of a new type of steening mechanism. Improved Lovejoy Hydraulic Shock Absorber* give increased riding comfort.
