SAYS HEART IS Rev. M. C. Hunt Declares Evil Inclinations Ever Ready to Break Out. Computing the human heaK to the slumhering volcano, which suddenlv hreaks forth Into violent eruption. Rev. Melvin ('. Hunt, pustor of the Trinity Methodist church, in his sermon Sunday on "lUiried Volcanoes." warned his audience that evil inclinations within men are ever ready to hreak forth if not held in check hy Christian influences. As illustrating his theme, Rev. Hunt desvrihed the sudden eruption of Vesuvius which buried the ancient city of Pompeii and the heart of tho unredeemed man as pictured in the story of Simon Magus, set forth In the eighth chapter of Acts. He said in part: l.vil is Natural. "The unchanged human heart contains a more volcanic element than ever nestled within the crater of the volcano. The thing wrong with Shimon Magus is the thing wrong with every man untouched of Cod he had a had heart. This doe.s. not mean that there is no good in folks, or oven that there is but little good; it does mean that in every life there is a fatal tendency toward evil. This is seen in nature; leave an American beauty rose without tare, and it tends rapidly hack to the wild state; leave your lino apple tree uncultivated, and in a few years small, sour fruit . will he borne. heave the human heart to itself ami it always reverts to gross evil. Tho civilized man in heathen lands goes lower than the heathen; the rehned man of the eastern home degenerates in the lumber camp of the northwest. Without its ton righteous. Sodom will he overthrown; and without the influence of Christian people this land would sink beneath the morals of the cave man. Why? Recause there is a. it a a. e a. a mora twist in an men. mat leu to themselves, fore-dooms them to evil. New I lea i-1 the Remedy. "A new heart is the unescapable lemedy. Had the Bible not proclaimed that necessity, nature would. Man is basically wrong on the inside, anil all the outward ablutions and ceremonies will leave that wrong wholly untouched. Kvery heart has in it a volcano, and the only way to eradicate it is to have a new heart. Tho Psalmist cried: Create in me a clean heart.' and (Jod spoke through the old prophet, 1 will give vou a new heart.' This is the need, and only Cod an supply it. Hut Ho can not do it alone. If any man will hear my voice, and open the door, J will come in and sup with him and he with me.' Rut it hinges with man; "if anil 'will i human contingencies, not di)UI A WORLD IN GENERAL TOO SELFISH SAYS PASTOR He. ii. I'. P.vrer I'inds Too Many Men After rinding Chti-t lo Not seek Out Other. That in evangelical work most men aie inclined to ask like Cain, "Am I my brother's keeper'.'" rather than to act like the Apostle Andrew who when he had found Christ. hastened hist to bring his brother Simon, was the opinion expressed by Rev. ii. F. Byrer. pastor of the Conference Memorial Fnited Brethren church in hi sermon on "The Two Rrothers." Sunday in which ho contrasted the different attitudes held by men today in regard to religious work. "Andrew- and Cain." said Rev. Fvier, "are representative men. Cain represents hatted, selfishness, the world. Andrew represents the spirit of self-sacrificing zeal. Christ. Knrthly relations involve a special duty of spiritual care, but i.ot only in the family but in God's tamily, the church should exercise his care. "The trend of the world is for ev erv one to look out for himself and when the .world linds a good it Is not apt to make It known. Christianity is the reverse. Cod w ill hold tis to account for the way in which w hav e performed our duty to those about us. Cod has a right to ask us the same question He asked Cain.

I NEWS IN AND ABOUT TOWN j:
Beware oj Man Selling "Mags" For Education "The boy who cannot secure a high school education and support himself at the same time is not of heroic quality." "I am convinced that any young man who deserves ;i college education may have it nowadays." Such are two pertinent thoughts on the subject of education given voice to by Rev. John Cavanaugh. C. S. C, D. I)., president of Notre l)ame university, in an open letter to the press in which he takes occasion to warn the public "against a fraud that is becoming altogether too common," that of the youngman who frequently pretends that he is working his way through college hy selling subscriptions to magazines. Such a person has been using the name of the university of Notre Dame to victimize the people of the country in this way. Dr. Cavanaugh's letter is as follows: I should like, through the press, to warn the public against a kind of fraud that is becoming altogether too common. For example, I have just heard of a young man who calls himself II. V. Hind and who ha-4 been victimizing people in various parts of the United States and Canada for several years. His method of operation is this: In the most plausible manner he informs the kindly disposed that he i? selling subscriptions to newspapers and magazines to defray his expenses at college. The Ave Maria, Renzinger's. America and the Catholic World are the public utions which he sells at a great bargain usually $10 worth of .good reading for the pathetically small sum of $ ".. Sometimes he represents himself as a student of the University of Notre Dame, sometimes with melancholy devotion he claims another Alma Mater. The kindly disposed give him money for subscriptions and never hear directly from him again. Mere is Warning. The warning I offer is this. If ever there was a day when it was necessary or advisable to help young men through college by buying unnecessary books or subscribe to any kind of magazines at their solicitation, that time has passed. Any boy worth an education can secure it nowadays without charitable consideration from anyone. High schools aie numerous and tho boy who can not secure a hUh school education and support himself at the sam time is not heroic finality. Destiny has written nothing inevitable on his brow. The same is true, though in perhaps less a measure, of a college education. It involves greate.- effort to make one's own opportunity, of course, than it does to accept an opportunity provided by others. Rut I am convinced that any young man who deserves a college education may have it nowadays. There are colleges located in cities where boys ran earn enough money after school hours to pay for board and tuition. There will be little money left for entertainment but a boy who needs amusement and who can not make a special effort for a few years while at college may miss a higher education and there will be no tragedy in his fate. Calls i:m Shark. Therefore. I very earnestly urge the public to pay no attention at all to young men who ask sympathetic consideration on the ground that they are working their way tnrough school. Treat them exactly as you would any other book agent. Kxamine their credentials in the same way and mistrust them for the same reason. It is pitiful to think how often our good-hearted people especially in country daces and in convents are imposed upon by sharks. And the curious thing is that these sharks appear with the soft innocent eves, the melting manners and the radiant piety of the angels. It H a wonder that young men so exquisitely made up and with such histrionic talent do not ply their trade in fields more honoral.de and more profitable. REV. A. J.

Miss Petty le Jone, a painter of wide reputation, died early Sunday from at s lf-intlicted bullet wound in the head. The police said Sunday they had virtually completed their investigation of the case. Dr. William S.

Miss De Jong beuan discussing suicide, all the while holding a. small revolver. For three hours, the physician said, he tried to persuade the young woman not to think of such a thing. Finally, when he was about to leave, he said. Miss De Jong shot herself in the temple. Made Careful Plan. The police siid Sunday nieht that the.. found in the studio not on? complete corroboration of Dr. Porter's story, b' t evidence that Miss De Jon.; had carefully set the stage for her death.

Under this rhair was a rug about eicht feet square. Miss De Joli seated herself on a big chair near "the door, produced the pistol an 1 informed him that she was going to kill herself before he left.
