' It is had enough to. think of what will happen lo the man who sends himself to hell, but it is horrible to think what will become of the person who takes someone else to hell with him," said Bev. Thoma? J. Parsons at the Quincy Street Baptist church last evening. "What co-ild be worse than people leading others, particularly young boys and citis. to the sins which will ultimately drag them down to hell. "There are four stages of sin.' he t ontinu d in part. "The first stsuge n the little sin which does not e utile Mil which ours amount to much it itself; but this stage leads to that of indifference and this leads to the stage of con t.tminat ioi. V ai tfrt grow ac(ustomed to the little sins and then start sinning in mo-v grevious matters, and f'nally the things we had formerly looked upon as terrible ium-: grow to t. matter-oi-ract performance iiv.nl we are so deep in sin that we c-anr.ot get out. and We end Up in the hell that was meant for the devil and his fallen and not intended for human !ir.g--. These people force themselves into it through the use of their own free will. "The last stage is the retributive step, which is exemplified by the str of Samson, who prostituted the great powers God had given him and then finally fell into the hands ol tli Philistines, his eneuiit."

We must have a sense of our littleness, our infirmity, and our dependence. "Salvation must consist in a change of action. People claim to h accepted by Chris-t, and yet there is no difference between their lives now and 10 years ago. Salvation means a hating of the things we loved, and a loving of the things we hatd. The reason why you are not saved, and will not be saved in these meetings, is that you won't give up your old life, and begin the new. "There are some things in our salvation that we must do for ourselves, which God cannot do for us. Wo must follow the Philippian jailer, and be baptized. Then we must care for our family, and see that its members are living in th" fear of the Lord. There can be no salvation for you as long as your children stow up, untutored In Christ. "I am much afraid that in those, meetings wo will stir men's emotions to action, and then they won't act. The light that is hidden under a bushel will soon go out." After the sermon two men and one woman came forward and were converted.
SINNERS CALLED TO REPENTANCE
Christ Came to Save, Says!tkm-
hev. bpeicner at urace Evangelical Church. "The Christ's Invitation" was the subject of the sermon at Grace Evan gelical church last evening. Bev. j Daniel I). Speicher, the pastor of the church, took his text from Matthew ll:-'8, "Come unto me. all ye I that labour and are heavy laden, and' I will give you rest. Take my yoke! r "n? 't .r..: ih 1 1 1 r auu lunij in urai i, uiiu JTi t shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is; light." The minister said in part: "Christ said once that He came not to call the righteous but sinners to repentance, and yet, according to the word of God. all are sinners. For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God. So likewise all those that labor and are heavy! laden, but not all see it in its true j significance. "We are laden with a sinful nature, that which we have inherited. that which has been transferred from one generation to another. Wei mav not particularly trv to raise

Bahhs of the Stull Memoria! M. F. hurch lat night launched into a hitter attack on the things that are preventing people from coming to Christ. His text was from John 1:40. "Then cried they all again saying, not this man hut Harra has." "Barrabas in your daily life stands for the spirit of worlclllness, some forbidden pleasure or hidden sin. Chi istianitv does not frown on inno"ent pleasure. Don't ever helieve the j church of Jesus Christ does not al- . low us to enjoy ourselves.

CHRIST'S GOSPEL HOPE FOR WORLD Church is Refuge tor Persons Afflicted With Sin Says Minister. "The gospel of Jesus Christ is the only hope of this sin cursed world." This was the opening statement vt the Bev. John (. Mosier last night at the Mizpuh Kvangellcal church in his sermon on. "Seek Ye the I Kingdom of Jod." He said in part: "(Jod luus withheld judgment lor a long time. But the time is fast approaching. The clock will strike and the judgment of God shall dewend upon all.

DEATH DOES NOT END ALL TROUBLES
Is Only the Beginning for Some Declares Rev. J. T. Orton. "Salvation represents two things," declared Rev. Julius T. Orton at the Hope Presbyterian church last night. "It represent something Christ does for you and likewise it represents something you do for Christ." Rev. Orton's theme was. "Securing the Touei; of Jesus," and was taken from two texts, "And Jesus saith unto him. 'I will come and heal him.' The centurion answered and said, Ixrd. I am not worthy that Thou shouldst come under my roof; but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed' " (Matthew 8.T-S); "And Jesus said. 'Who touched me?' When all denied. Peter and they that were with him said. 'Master, the multi tude throng thee and press thee, and savest thou. Who touched me'."" (Luke 8:15). "There are two narratives and two fundamental truths contained In the text. They tell the .story of redemption, cleansing and healing. Leprosy is a disease which is almost a case of helplessness, yet the Iord removed the disease and made him clean, for he was willing. Willing ness is all we neea to receive .nnstianity. There are men who are on i the verge of the grave but refuse to admit that they need help, and they die without yielding to God. There isn't a person here tonight who hrsn't experienced some secret trouble. We all have our tragedies and troubles, yet they are not great enough to keep us away from God. Christ is here more today than He was when He walked through the hills of Judea. "Many people have the pleasing thought that with death comes the end of all troubles and pains. Yet their troubles are only beginning unless they are saved before they die. What does it mean for Jesus to touch the human life today? Do you know a great stirring of the heart is experienced when we bring Christ near us? He touches us with a hidden hand and makes our heart vibrate with His love. He touches human life at its vital point. Morality comes to the place where we are living, but Jesus Christ conns to us wherever we are living not only because of our sins but in spite of our sins. All of us have sinned, yet we are net forsaken." CHURCH MEMBERS MUST DO THEIR PART "Christ has done His part, the apostles have done theirs, and the ministers are doing theirs, it is therefore up to you to do yours," declared Rev. Cecil Castle in his sermon last night on "The Prayer of Christ" at the Linden Avenue Christian church. There have been a total of 13 converts at the Linden Avenue church so far during the revival, according to the pastor last night, and the interest in the campaign continues as great as ever. "Christ died on Calvary's cross to redeem us who are here tonight as much as anyone else," declared the speaker. "He is continuing today just as much as He ever was His effort to save us. Today, just as on the day that He left the joys and splendors of heaven to come down upon earth to be a man and to suffer as a man, Christ is working to save us and no matter how we treat Him He will continue to help us as long as we turn to Him. But are you using the opportunities that God is giving vou for salvation? Are you taking advantage of the opportunities afforded by this retreat, for instance? Are you setting a good example to your neighbor in this regard? Remember, that the man that sets a bad example to his friend and neigh, that leads his fellow man into sin is a robber. He robs Christ." Proper Way to Keep Your Hair in Curl If you want your hair to prow nnd thrive, tion't curl it with a hot iron.

Minister Draws Picture of Man Outside Church Fold
Why Join the Church"? was the Question answered by Bev. i . R. Tomas last night at the Indiana Avenue Christian church. He spoke throughout of an average man whom he called Jones and showed why this man should become a Christian. "'Jones, let us say. lives here, in this community. He is a good father, a good neighbor. Has the home of an average man and either owns it or is paying for it out of his salary. He belongs to two fraternal r rders. pays his dues and calls on a sick brother if necessary. He ha.s two children, a boy and girl. They are the average hoy and girl. Jones hopes that they will grow up to be useful citizens. He hopes to give them a better education than he had. "This man don't thjoct to his wife going to church if the doesn't come home late to get his dinner. He sleeps late on S'jnday morning, reads the paper through, then fools with the furnace, or if it is summer, pulls a few- weeds in the garden.

"Jesus Christ was asked this question by His di.oiples." the pastor said. "His answer was that such work can only be done by fasting and prayer." Ilev. Keniiii drew an analogy of the people, who are not in the church, asking the members of the church the same question as the disciples did. "The people outside of the church are diseased morally, because they live in sin. They are wicked and they do not belcng to church of Jesus Christ. They ask the church members, who answer, 'we can do nothing, because 5 ou have not spent enough time in prayer.'

as he has in hi homo. He don't se that it is divinely ordained and that it has a peculiar message. "Jones misjudges the church because its output is intangible. He can't measure it with a yard-stick. The churrh deals in character, which cannot be weighed nor seen. "But so is the output of the publicschools intangible, yet he don't judge them in the same manner. He insists that his children go to the schools." The speaker said that some churches did not interest men enough to cause them to join and that the churches were, in a way, responsible for this condition. He pointed out that it was a man's job to hold the interest of a man and that those who played at appealing to men could not win them. Rev. Tomes left last night for Fi.

"Some people have the erroneous idea that because they belong to the church they are guarantee,! the power to do God's work. Part of the cost is to pray because without prayer we'ean do nothing as we will not gain God's intercession. Many people do not lift their hearts to God and pray for His divine assistance, but think that just because they attend church that the grace of God will he infused into their hearts. The people must do their duty, that is carry out God's work personally. (Jod put us on this earth that e might work out our salvation, but unless we carry out our creator's intentions we shall he lost. Jesus Christ atoned for our sin. when He came down to earth and died on the cross, but this was not the full atonement for our transgressions but merely made it possible for usto be .saved. "I'eople who do not pray as amend to salvation are in the same predicament as the people who are waiting to go to work but can not go becau.sH the car is unable to get any power as the dynamo is disconnected. It is the same with the Christian who docs not pray hecause prayer is the dynamo of Christianity."
