of the churchmen of Indianapolis in th election last fall in his er- i The gathering at the Indiana Aen.on on "Valuable I'lii.in" at tl.einue Christian church, corner IndiItiver Park M . ;. church last niht.jana a v. and St. Joseph st..

These. yon may say. are none of the affairs of Christians. That's iust the trouble We have strained at gnats and j swallowed elephants. j "Valuable religion is the religion i that works here and now. that transforms life and human society. Valuable religion consists in carrying out the- very reasonable requirement of (Jod to do what is just, to love mercy and to walk humbly with (Jod." VISION GF CHRIST Evangelist Warns Boys and Girls of Emptiness of Worldly Pleasure. "Today South Uend needs more than anything else a vision of God," declared Itev. C. I,. Ulliott at the Kpworth Memorial M. I-'. church last evening in his sermon for which he used as his text: "There is a way which seems right unto man but the end thereof is the way of the dead." Wednesday he will speak on the "Personality of the Devil." "The world does not satisfy man." said the evangelist. "You can put all the gold, all the ball-rooms, and nil the pleasures of this world into the human heart and can not IUI lt. Pile up the wealth and you desire more. Get as many honors as possible and you seek others. Your ambitions can never be satisfied, but they rise higher. Iut seek Christ and you will be completely satisfied. To learn to know Christ the one road to happiness. "It seems to -the young man that he has a perfect right to enjoy himself in this world. It seems to the young girl that there should be nothing to prevent her from having her till of worldly pleasures. I do not Mame the young men and young girls for seeking the good times and pleasures of this life, but I will warn them that sin brings no joy. "At first sin brings a sting of conscience, but with repeated violations of the laws of God and the dictates of conscience. our inner voice ceases to warn us when we have committed sin and we seem to enjoy it. Our conscience dies. You can not trifle with sin. however, and get out of it without stain. In the end it always brings remorse and sorrow. It causes your own loss and the loss of your friends) here, nnd the loss of God hereafter. Death follows in its wake bih in this world and in the next. "You cannot follow your conscience which becomes hard as you commit sin. It attempts to make the wrong appear right when it is to pour advantage that the wrong should be right. We must therefore seek something more ultimate than o;)r conscience to guide us. must .eek the word of God." We .

Iiev. M. II. Appleby at the First M. K. church last night. J He explained that the churches should hold carefully to what they 1 have and that God will help them to increase this so they will be able to uin out against evil. "Often even t men w no have given tnemselves to God mav lose out in the conflict be- . i v rr 1 1 .o-i i in ii mi m 1 nil ial comforts they can desire so they are ready to settle down comfortably and enjoy life. They do not realize how poor, wretc hed and miserable they are if they have neglected God in their rush for success. The church should wake them up and teach ther.i to use their power to overcome evil. "An increase in spiritual power1 should be the aim of a church and church people.

Divorce Evil is Due to Lac of Belief in Christ
"FIvery five minutes of the day and night there is a divorce granted in this country", exclaimed Itev. J. A. j Robinson in his sermon at the Firs. J Church of the Urethren last even- ! inir. "Div orce is one of the great j modern eviis threatening our civilisation. Its effect is to tear down thu ; horn', ore of the most important ' institutions, in the world. Now if i'hrNt is neglected in the schools, to it that is not ne-.-cted in the hom'. for the only hope of cur- ' ing the divorce evil is to have Christ : in our marriage s."

"It is foolish for a woman to marry a man to reform him." declared the Rev. J. A. Groves of Warsaw at the Conference Memorial church last night. "How can a Christian woman love a sinner? How can love form between saint and sinner? What a desperate thing it is when children come into a home divided by the slimy trail of a serpent." Taking as his texts John 1:1: "In Him was life," and John. 10:10: I am come that they may have life and have it more abundantly," Jlev. Groves gave the first of three consecutive sermons on the "New L.ife In Christ." Iast evening's sermon was on the necessity of life in Christ." "Methods of Getting in to This Life" will be the subject of this evening's discourse. "It was a calamity when man fell in the garden of Eden. Man had struggled under the curse which was a punishment. until Christ j came. u hen a man unites with I Christ he enters into a new life. He is regenerated. So with every child born into the world. Each and all are born under the blood into the i kingdom, saved. When Christ shed His blood, it was for children as well as for any one. Did lie not Kay of them: 'Of such is the king- ( i-fom of heaven.' Did He not say. I 'Unless ye become as little children. I ye shall not be saved.' And one day that child born under the blood comes to the turning point when it I must c hoose to receive Christ or re ject Him. I'ntil that hour, it must be trained to receive Him, trained to the love of the Lord. Can such training be given in a home where d'scord K.ust reign, where the serpent has entered in?" "It is a hellish doctrine to hold th.it a man must sow his wild oats," continued the speaker. "When a man gives his life to the devil, he can't stop" reaping the results when he comes back to the Lord. The ! devil will taunt him with his for- t mer life, will tling his evil deeds into his face. It is the business of the parents, the Sunday school teachers and the pastor to save children from such a career. Hut what is to bo done if they reject Christ? We must hope for their conversion through which they entcVthe newlife. "Thus it is necessary that a child on reaching the age to Judge, should have been so trained that he will accept the Saviour and never lead an evil life. Hut if he ' does this, and yet later is lost, he I must pecome as a cnna again in or der to enter into the kingdom." CAItD Ol' THANKS.

PITIES MAN WHO
REFUSES CHRIS Jesus' Knocking at Heart is Challenge to Better Self, Says Rev. R. I. Champion. Accepiipi; the invitation of Evangelist K. I. Champion. !ive converts "hit the I nil" and were taken into the Lowell Heights M. K. church last niuht. In his sermon. Kev. Champion took as his text, "Behold. I stand at the door and knock, and if any man will hear My voice and op-n the door I will come into him. and sup with him, and he with Me." "I pity the- man or woman here tinii;ht.'' said the evangelist, "who bolts his or her heart to Jesus Christ and will nat answer His knock." "How may I know that Jesus is standing at the door of my heart and knocking, is a question which many peojde ask. When He comes He will work a wonderful change in you and you need not fear that you will not hear Him. A beautiful manifestation of Jesus is when we are inspired vvilh the great desire to be a Christian ami a better man. when we are UlkU with a burning wish to see Him in all of His glory. There are too many people who will not open the door to Him till they are in their last illness and ready to step into the world to come." Speaking of the difficulty of giving one's self to God, the evangelist said: " It may be that the knocking of Christ is a challenge to the very best that is in you and me. It is often a challenge to do things that duty and conscience demand that we do. and w e must . sympathize w ith the man who has to battle with himself to force himself to do his duty. Mn who are strong and capable otherwise, say 'I just can't' when it comes to giving themselves to Jesus Christ. "God sometimes stands at the door and knocks, ai.d His voice is heard through the working of provi dence. Providence takes its course and brings people to their senses with a sudden hock, letting them know what it is to be a Christian. The gospel is the lfiggest and most wonderful thing in the world and God will bring it to you if you will only let Him. Hut remember that a Christian cannot live a Christian outside of the church." The pastor. Dev. Guy H. Black, made a short address, in which he urged the people of the congregation to call upon others and to see personally that they come to the meetings. "Bring those of your friends who are unsaved." .he counseled, "for they cannot be saved at home." At a meeting yesterday afternoon, for women only, the church was crowded. There will be another meeting for women Thursday afternoon. A special meoting for the men will be held next Sunday afternoon. Tonight the choir will practice at 7 o'clock before the services. FORMER PASTOR AT FIRST EVANGELICAL Kev. rrvclcrick Hnuscii, Who Built Prewnt Building, Occupies Pulpit. The sermon at the First Evangelical church last evening was given by the Iiev. Fredrich Ilausch, former pastor and builder of this church. The speaker's text was "The pevitions in Solomon's dedicatory prayer reaches the crux of all the strange men from God," and was taken front the first book of Kings, chapter S, verses .",8 and The speaker told of Solomon's great wisdom and of his asking the Lord for the power to distinguish between good and bad. "Solomon knew," the speaker said, "of the great plague of sin that goes on within the heart ami it is this same disease that troubles us today." Thi3 plague, he showed, is gradually destroying vis and it is up to us if we wish to be saved to allow the Ixjrd to help us drive out this pestilence and to lead a new life. The speaker showed how willing the Lord was to help us and that in all cases it was up to the sinner to allow the Lord to enter his heart and make it clean. SINS MUST BE GIVEN UP AFTER FORGIVENESS Kev. -M. C. Hunt Says Wrong-Doing W ill Im Ktitoxtl on Judgment Day. "He that eovereth his sins shall liOt prosper but he that oonfesseth his sins shall have mercy," was the text ucd by the Rev. Melvin C. Hunt in his sermon at the Trinity Methodist Episcopal church last night. He told of the folly of hiding sins in the heart instead of confessing them and dcir.g good. The man who hides his sins may sometimes be successful during his life but on the judgment day his soul will be uncovered ai d exposed before the eves of the world. "A man who tries to ignore sin or shows a belief in it is doing himself a great wrong, loci came into the world because of the sin of man and many times in his talk He spoke of sin." said the preacher. He then showed the necessity of confessing and forsaking äin as real Christian men and women should do. There was good attendance at the church and ten convert e made,
Belief that Ignorance is Mother of Devotion False, Says Minister
"God does not despise brains." began Iiev. E. Enterline, pastor of the (Juincy street Baptist church, in his sermon on "Beasoning With God" last night. "He puts no premium upon ignorance," continued the speaker. "There are those who say that ignorance is the mother of dejvotion." but it is not. Ignorance is I only the mother of superstition ard superstition is as far from true religion as day is from night." he declared. "God expects man to use , his brains and to use them to the best cf advantage," he asserted. Continuing, he said in part: I "Man can use his brains to v.o j better purpose than to understand the gieat, divine plan of salvation. He charges Israel, His people, with blind ignorance and ingratitude to Him. He says: 'The ox knoweth his owner and the ass his master's crib, but Israel does not know.' Men who forget God are more unreasonable and more ungrateful than the ov or ass. The plan of salvation makes no unreasonable demand upon man. Can anything that God asks may be regarded as unreason BIBLE PROVES THERE'S a Hell, says minister Von Can Corni Your Own Opinion. Hut Fact Cannot Im Dountexl. "Hell" was the subjec t of the sermon preached by Itev. J. A. Mclntuil at the First Brethren church. f. Michigan st., last evening. From the opening sentence, in which the speaker propounded the question. Is there a Hell?" until he made his final plea for converts, there wa not a dull moment. Rev. Mclntuff commenced his sermon by telling of the literature a person finds on his front door steps from time to time, always bearing such fancy titles as "What do the scriptures have to say about hell?" "What is the modern conception of hell?" "What is hell, anyway?" "Do you believe in a lire and brimstone hell?" etc. These he answered in no uncertain manner. He told of the rich man who died and went to hell, and of the poor man who died and went to heaven. He said a man might be rich in the sight cf man. and a pauper in the s;ght of God. "One thing is sure." continued the preacher. "God says most emphatically in the Iiible that there is a hell. You can form your own conclusions of what that hell is. I've formed mine. I want you to form yours. Helieve it is torment after death, the terrible fire and brimstone that you have heard about since your childhood; believe It is separation from God, believe it is merely the remorse of your own conscience, believe it is anything else, but believe that it is something, that it does exist, and that it is not the production of some fertile mind." SALVATION SO SIMPLE PEOPLE OVERLOOK IT )Kn m All, Irrespective of Race, Color or Scni-Ial standin?:. . "Three Aspects of Salvation", was the theme discussed by Itev. Charles FT. Watkins, state evangelist for Indiana, before the congregation of the First Baptist church last evening. The speaker stated that salvation is open to all, irrespective of race, color, or social standing, since the Wnl

able for such a boon is the eternal salvation of his soul?" Rev. Enterline then told the rtory of a farmer who sent Iii son to college after years of labor. I'pon
visiting the college his smi would not recognize the father. He gave j this ns an example of the ingrat!- ' tude of children toward parents: i t ask you mothers and fathers: Can mere be a more bitter pill to swallow than to have a son or daughter whom you have lavished affection upon turn against you?" II' stated that the ingratitude of children towards parents was a small sin in comparison to the ingratitude of man toward God. "I never saw a dog turn to someone because he was more influential, or fake aU'eetion for a present. 1 have known j a dog to lick a hand that man would kick. He shows what mortals do not shous gratitude and never half wags his tail." Mrs. V. T. Jain rendered a vocal selection while special music was provided by a chorus choir. Deacons Morris and Shelley led the congregation in prayer. Services will begin at 7:30 o'clock this evening. I Scripture says, "For the grace God hath appeared, bringing salvation to all men." lie said that to get a picture of (iod's salvation in 1MT, up must go back to the time, when by His saving grace, He saved the Israelites from death and starvation. God'.s salvation today, he declared, is like that He worked out for the people of Israel. "The reason people are not saved is that salvation is .o simple that they overlook it." said Itev. Watkins. "Mut salvation include everything that man needs from the time when he leave.-, his old life of sin until he is saved. All our minor considerations of life will be taken care of hy God's salvation, th" preacher declared. Regular services will be held at the First Baptist church every night this week, except Saturday. Rev. Watkins will speak at a men's meeting to be held In the church Sunday at 3 o'clock. His subject will be. "The Deal Problem of Kft ic Sencv."
