Parsons spoke on the siibHct, "No NUbt In Heaven." at the ijuiney Street I.iitist ehureh Sunday evening.

'Tor some weeks." he said, "wo haeleen eemsielerintf events which transpired at night, jind it is fitting that, as a c limax. we"should turn our thoughts to the passing of nixht forever. "Night is the symbol oT suffering", sorrow, Mn and datb.

"Almost no passage in the bible has a flxeel nmk fast meaning" were tho opening words of Rsihhi A. Cronbach, pastor of the Temple Heth-Kl in his Sunday morr lng" sermon. "The writer of the bible means one thing, subsequent editors, translators, readers, interpreters mean other things, the meanings having variathms according to generation and environment. Some of the grandest thoughts emanating from the bible elid not get into the bible when it was written but dropped into it (me after another as a result of changes in the wording sometimes accidental, sometimes intentional, as a result ot lnttri pretatlons more or less subjective. "cJoel is the rock, the solid foundation. Everything else passes away, God remains. Everything else is deceptive. (Joel is real. ,Ne thought can give us peace except the thought of God. No thought is so free from error as the thought of Geul. "Good and bad luck are obverse and reverse of the same thing. There is not a piece of gooel luck in the world but has served as one step toward eonsequences that were cheering. Surely good luck is not good that creates cemceit ami haughtiness nor is baei luck bad which makes for strength of character. "Good luck and bad luck, had luck and goed luck, with all our interpretations of them, with our everlasting chase after the one and away from the either, good luck and had luck are equally snares, delusions and humbugs. "I shall tell you what is real. Do you know what love is? Well that is real mt a hun ug. no eleception there the duties of right now, the very next thing which is waiting to be done.

"It is the disobedience of the socalled Christians that is hindering the progress of the church today." declared Rev. A. H. Thomas in his Sunday morning sermon at the Firt Brethren church. He spoke on the general subject of obedience, taking for his text the words. "Heboid, to obey is better than sacrifice." "There are two forms of obedience," said 31 r. Thomas. "These are enforced obedience, as seen in the i obedience of the slave, and the obedience of love and willingness as seen in the life and death of Christ. The obedience of love is necessary to ob- ! tain the love ami friendship of Christ. 1 "One of the things that is hindering the progress of the church today t 1-w k ii h'di-ktl innrn f tn n 11 rkil ; ehris,ian; Th t(iml;n rv orinnir the Christians is to do only the things which please and the unpleasant things are left undone regardless of their importance. "3lan, the greatest thin? in (Joel's ; creation, has been the greatest source ' of trouble t God. God only spoke once to the sun, and it has continued to serve without failure, but man has , continued time after time te disobey Geid. The cleansing of Xaaman should be an example to Christians as to the necessity of carrying out God's commandments to the letter. "The great fault ef modern evangelism is the lack ef doctrinal teachings. The evangelist can get people to accept Christ, anybody can get folks to sirn cards, but to get them to join the church becomes almost impossible when the concert has been informed of the necessary steps to be taken that have been layol elown bv Christ."

Eight Inches Thick. Annual ice euittinr season in northern Indiana starts this week, according to reports from South Hend ice concern managers, who secure tlpir product from the lakes in this territory. Notre Dame lake and Inke Maxinkuckee are the two principal fields for the local cutters. Ice cutting starts almost a month and a half varlier this year than last season. The first ice was not seeun d until Kelt, l.'t ef the- past se-ason. while the siouth Bend companies made the initial cutting Saturday at Culver. Another force of men will start at Notre Dame lake this morning. At Notre Dame the ice is eiht and one-half indies thick while at Culver it is ltetween eiuht and nine inches. It was feared for a time- that the continued snow would impede the ice cutting but this disadvantage has been eliminateel. It is probable that not as big a crop as usual will be harvested by the ice companies this year owing to the fa-t that all of last year's supply was not exhausted. Iist summer was what the ice companie-s term a " cool sumi mer and consequently tne consump tion was not as great as elding the preceding season. The ice men are all hoping that the cold weather will continue in order that they may elo all th ir cutting at this time, which mt.u- : !!; early as the season larcly sluts ! -fore February.
