a1 DiacK-neartea proposmuu. Education Organized society has seen that Ignorance is a soil in which the seeds of baldness seem to grow with alarming rapidity, and 60 they have set about to erect an inner wail about the individual in education. We have developed our superb education from the little red schoolhouse on the hill to the universities in the great cities, and we are making an honest effor to put an education within the reach of every boy or girl that has ambition to know something and not go through this world a mut and be absolutely ignor
ant. All things being equal, an educated man ought to be better able ,to pro
tect himself than an uneducated man. I've been told that certain foods were not good, or certain germs were injurious, or certain conditions, so if I have been previously . posted, I ought to be able to take care of myself. So, we have found out a great many diseases from which people die today Is because they don't clean their teeth, so the germs accumulate and go down into the stomach and cause many a disease. So, it pays for people to go to the dentist and keep their teeth clean and their mouth clean. Poison generates from all of these things. They are unnecessary and the body and the mind and soul and the individual are much safer if they are surrounded by the wall of education. Business Not -Always Dependable.
You go ahead and get all the world can give you but you worth nothing unless you have what Jesus Christ can give you. If it were not for the principles of Jesus Christ there would not be any country worth living In. I would not want to live in it either, would you? Come down from your perch of curiosity. - There are some men that can't bear to see any man decent. I believe multitudes are more concerned about what other people may think than they are about God Al
mighty. Any man or woman who tries to prevent you from being a Christian Is so damnable and low that I would not insult a polecat by comparing it with him. And if he is as low in stature as in principle he would kiss a rat without bending his knees. Why he hasn't brains enough to make a desert for a map. Morality is included in Christianity but Christianity is not included in morality. There are lots of good men and women who are not Christians but there are no Christians who are not moral. There is fear in the heart of every unsaved man or woman when they
think of God. The trouble is Jesus Christ has been seeking you but you have turned your back on him. Turn around and you will find him right here and ready to throw his arms around you. Say, If God would give me the privilege to go to hell and preach one sermon and give the invitation, I wouln . depopulate hell in 15 minutes; just one sermon. They that are in there would rive the world to get out and you big fool, you are trying to get in. Don't you do it. . I wish I could picture hell with its tortures and heaven with its beauty until you would fall to Jesus. You are lost to heaven without Jesus Chiist. If is wonderful that we can be saved so easily.

So it Is a good thing when they carve their epitaph on their tombstone because they never intended to be decent while they are on earth, and I don't see any reason why they ought to stay any longer. Organized society has as its ideal an economic order In which every able-bodied man or woman should have a job. Gosh, there are many able-bodied men and women too darned lazy to work if they had a job. A lot of hobos won't work if they get a
chance. . . Idealism No Safe Guide. So much of our dope nowadays is idealism. Your iaealism will never

I don't blame them for their ideals, that is all right, and I believe the nearer society reaches that ideal the'less unrest and trouble there will be.

TODAY'S BEST STORY IN BILLY'S SERMON A friend of mine went to Europe some years ago and he went to Berlin and he bought a phosphorescent match safe, and he brought it back. He invited some of his friends in to see It shine, and he turned out the light and he brought out this phosphorescent match safe. It was as black as a lump of coal. He scratch ed his head and said, "Well, I apologize. I'm a bigger fool than I ever imagined, to buy Junk like that and then pay forty per cent duty on it and lug it all the way from Berlin. I might as well go out to the coal bucket and get a lump of coal. He apologized for being 6uch a mutt, and the next day he went to pick it up to throw it into the alley and he turned it over and on the other side saw printed in very fine letters, "If you wish the match safe to shine, keep it in the sunlight." He said, "That's one on me," and he went and put it out in the sunlight and let it stay there all day. He brought it in and turned off the light and its scintillations were brilliant and they exhausted their adjectives trying to find something they could frame into words which would fittingly , express their feeling of admiration for the phospho
rescent match safe.

is a better citizen than the man who is educated and is not a Christian. He is a better citizen. - The man who is poor and a Christian is a better citizen than the man who is rich and is not a Christian. If the maid in your home Is a Christian she is a better woman than you are if you are not a Christian. She is a better person to her country all the way through. If every ma nand woman In America was a Christian, our periods of unemployment would not he produc
tive of crime as they are. If every man and woman in America was a Christian, capital would give labor a sauare deal and labor would turn
1 around and give capital a square deal. It Isn't all one-sided. If I worked for a fellow and I didn't
like him, I'd resign and get out, then I could cuss him all I wanted to. As long as I am a part of that establishment, it is up to me to speak well of

TABERNACLE STATISTICS Thursday Afternoon Attendance, 800 Thursday Evening Attendance 5,000 Trail hitters 97
SONGS ARE FEATURE
A delegation from the Starr Piano factory held the center seats Thursday night. A Starr phonograph occupied the center of the stage, furnished music, and presented itself to Billy Sunday, while members of the Starr delegation swelled the number of "trail ' hitters" until 97 men and women had signed pledge cards taking Christ as
their Savior. Mrs. Asher and Mr. Rodeheavcr sang "In the Garden" on request and then the phonograph held the center of the stage. It played a new record by Mrs. Asher and Mr. Rodeheaver, "When I Look in His Face," while they sang the second verse, then the phonograph sang "I Do Not Ask for a Diadem," while Mr. Rodeheaver sang the second verse. Before the two records, which told of the phonograph, and which made the presentation speech to Mr. Sunday, one of Strickland Gillilan's "Me and Pap and Ma," as recorded by Homer Rodeheaver, was used on the machine. Remember "Strlck"
By calling for the show of hands of the Richmond people that had known Strickland Gillilan, Rodeheaver demonstrated that the Hoosier poet is well remembered locally, for hundreds of hands were put up all over the audience. In the middle of the record the needle broke sharp in two, and Clarence Gennett, who was operating it.

I will admit that poverty causes crime with some folks. I won't argue with you at all, but that Isn't the rule of it all the way through. If every, man and woman in America was a genuine Christian, noboby would wriggle his slimy carcass across the threshold and seduce your wife from

"Well they told me that Richmond would come along," Sunday continued, "and you seem to be doing things for me.

Who they were from noone had time to ask, as the phonograph occupied the center of attention. When the plants -had to be moved the cards were discovered. Call Never Fails Calling for men and women to take their stand for Jesus Christ and come down in front before the audience stood and the personal workers had reached their stations, Mr. Sunday declared that he had never made such a call in 26 years without some one coming forward.
