Iavis in a sermon Su nlay niorninir on "Lost Opportunities", which Mas addressed to both parents and children. In part, Mr. Iavis said: "There are three states in child life Childhood, from birth to eight, boyhood and girlhood from eip;ht to 'l years, and adolescense from 13 to maturity. The knowledge of the characteristics of these crucial periods by the parents is as vital as life itself. "There are three forces at work in child development viz: birth, environment, and the child's own effort." The speaker stressed the second and third points. IiMiiict hy liirih. "What we expert from the child we must put in his environment. The child posesses by birth, instincts. There are the instincts of seii'-e. We must surround him by music and art; there are the instincts of religion, these we must develop. There are the open doors by which w e are to enter the child's life and lead him out to the realization of his hopes and dreams. It is nothing short of criminal for a parent t crush out these inate aspirations by their indifference, neglect and even opposition. "These instincts if properly guided become the child's habits of life rlna'V his character. Hence the .eeond duty of the parent is to help form these habits by the culttvatioi of the child's inward desires and by tirm repre-sion from without. 1'lioico 1 inally Comes. n:t the child must do its part. The parent for a while may hold the child by a force from without in paths of right living, but in the end the child must walk in those paths from choice. And the peril is that the bovs and girls in the period of adolescence through fear of criticism and by conformance to the world shall themselves crush out th"e instincts and break as tinder the good habits which righteous parents with prayers. tears and entreaties, h.uo tried so hard so force and develop" FOURTEEN CONVERSIONS AT OLIVET A.

RE G OR

A FAD Rev. J. L Gardiner Points Out Both Love and Reason Enter Into It. Declaring that the Ilible is neither a book of science or mere literature but a book of religion, and that the religion which is taught therein in not for the mind .ilone nor for the heart alone, but for the whole man, Kev. James 1 Gardiner, I. D., pastor of the St. Paul's Memorial Methodist Kplscopal church. In his sermon on "The Hlble's Appeal to Intellect and Heart" Sunday evening', pointed out the true nature of the religion of the Hilde. In part Mr. Gardiner said: "The Hible is not a book upon co.-unoKony, although it does give an account of the creation of the world. It is not a book on literature although it does contain some of the ünest literature in the world. It Is not a book on science although it does present some scientitic facts. It is pre-eminently a book on religio n. .XpjH'aN to Intellect. "The religion set forth in the Hilde iü a religion that appeals to the intellect. I would like to make this clear because it has passed Into history as an aphorism, that religion is the mother of superstition. I suppose those who have maintained this have really meant that ignorance wis the mother of superstition. That at least is the real quotation, but there are thousands of persons who think it is a mark of weakness intellectually If r.ot otherwise, if a man is very religious. "I would like to deny this and at the same time point out that the intellectual part of a man's life can come to its keenest, strongest and best in and through religion. Other things being equal, a man of line intellect who will think on religious questions, think on moral truths, and think of his relation to almighty God, will be of greater value to the church than the man who fails to think profoundly. .Needs Power of I (en son. "Turn to any concordance of the Hible and you will Hnd that the word 'reason' is a word which is used again and again. God says to his people, 'Come now let us reason together. ' The tlrst article of religion according to Isaiah is this God reason with men. The psalmist prayed Give me understanding and I shall keep thy precepts.' Paul 'for three days reasoned' with the people of Thesslonica concerning the scriptures, and Jesus said, 'Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy mind.' The religion of Jesus is a religion that lays hold of the mind. "Hut the religion of Christ appeals also to the heart of man. It is not simply a process or system of reasoning. Religion is emotion. ' It is the heart life stirred with a passion for God. It is the heart stirred with a passion for holiness and righteousness. "Man is not all brain. He Is a creature with a heart, and the Hible from beginning to the end has much to say about the heart. The heart is that with which man loves and hates. It is the seat of man's emotional life. It is also the source of man's sin. "Now the great purpose of Christianity is to free the heart of man from sin. The religion of Christ drives sin out of the heart and opens the way for the incoming of the Son of God. Without heart-religion a man may be an intellectual genius, but he cannot be a Christian. It is in the heart that Christ desires to enthrone Himself. Jesus said Thou shalt love the I,ord thy God with all thy heart.' There is therefore no divorce between brains and piety h wren a strong mentality and Interreligious living. Christianity Appeals to the best of mind and heart that is within man." SHOWS ALL DREAMS ARE NOT IN VAIN Capt. Nehemiah Rrookes was the speaker at the services held last night at the Salvation Army home, corner Hill st. and Colfax av. Mr. Rrookes' sermon was taken from Acts 2-17, "Your young men shall see visions and your old men shall dream dreams." In part he said: "There are two kinds of visionists and dreamers: one kind can be likened to men lost in a fog without making progress, while others are able to make new discoveries that lead to .elf impimement, as well as resulting beneficially to the whole community." Continuing he said: "The patriarchs, prophets and apostles received petsonal benetlt and aided others by efforts that came about through dreams and isions. i "Joseph, nicknamed by his broth- ! ers the "dreamer", later in life savj ed them from starvation. Ananias 'was guide 1 to assist Saul of Tarsus. ! Jacob regained courage and renewed ! his confidence in Goü throuirh his ; dream and vision of a ladder pointling- heavenward. Cornelius a devout land God-fearing man of the Italian 1 band was led t instruct Peter by visional inspiration. I "Man led by dreams and visions 'under dhir.e guidance in all ages of time have become active in ;od : works and have benefitted the com- ' munity physically, intellectually and spiritually. People in various calllines should learn like Paul not disobedient to dreams or visions orig-

SAYS JUDGMENT DAY CANNOT BE AVOIDED

Itcv. w. II. lYexhlcy l'r&o People to Prepare for Final Day of Jlcvkoiilng. "Are you ready for the Judgment day?" was the pertinent question which Kev. W. H. Freshley put to his audience at the end of the revival at the First L'vangelical church and at the end of his sermon on "The Judgment Iay". Sunday evening. Rev. Freshley described the characteristics of "The Judgment Day" in his sermon. He said that it is one of the certain things which are in the future, that we can in no way avoid it and he urged the adoptation of the program of preparation for it which he pointed out in his talk. The four things in which we will be judged on judgment day, according to the speaker are on our deeds, the secret things of our life, our words and our relations with God. Christ will be the Judge, he said, and will deliver the sentence. SAYS 1 ALWAYS 4 WISHED BY GOD Rev. J. S. Burns Shows Evil Sooner or Later Meets Disapproval of Creator. Hecause men no longer believe in a physical hell they arc- also beginning to doubt that there is any penalty for sin, according to Rev. John S. Rurns. pastor of the Trinity Presbyterian church in his sermon on "The Penalty of Sin" Sunday night. Rev. Hums pointed out that sin is always punisher both in this world and in the next. He said in part: "Man's belief in the old time physical hell being destroyed he thinks that nothing so very bad can overtake him. Hence he is not so concerned to have himself saved, or his relatives, or his neighbors. A true picture of sins' penalty would disturb this sleep of death, this mumbment of soul, this drugging of conscience. Sin works its own ruin. God's penalty for sin is the natural and inevitable consequences of sin. "What sinner does not know the physical and spiritual consequences of sin? The pains of body and the remorse of soul? Sinners living in opposition to God's holiness and God's loving purpose for a righteous humanity cannot help but feel His disapproval, His indignation, and as a result of this disapproval be separated from God and from all His blessings and from reaching ones own real destiny. Then there is the corruption that sin works in the character. There is the loss of power to be and do good and tho corresponding gain in power to be and do evil until one becomes a veritable devil growing worse and worse until he becomes lothesome to himself, his fellows, and God. There is likewise the tendency that this growing evil, this disapproval of God, this deterioration of character, and this pang of conscience shall continue in this life and in that which is to come unless there is repentance. Some would seem to be beyond repentance. Not even sickness and approaching death will disturb their self satisfaction. "God's purpose in visiting this penalty on sin is to correct the sinner and bring him out of the error of his way. If the penalty the consequences of sin does not work this effect then must God rightly continue the punishment. If man never repents then man shall never come out from under condemnation. "Thanks be to God there is relief from thus terrible abandon to the consequences of sin. That relief is in Chris., who is our Savious from sin. May we see our sins in the light of His life and death and resurrection and turn in abhorance from them to Him and in Him become pleasing to God." ,. ROSTISER NOT AGAINST SUNDAY MOVIES OR BALL Candidate for Mayoralty Nomination Addresses la Mcotlnc at ISalle Hall. Declaring that he was not opposed to Sunday baseball nor to the opening of moving picture shows on the Sabbath day, Harvey Rostiser. candidate for the democratic nomination for mayor, spoke to a big crowd at Lasalle hall Sunday afternoon. Rostiser was the first of a list of 1 speakers, and said in part: "I believe that the man whom the people of outh Rend want for mayor must carry the banner of efficiency. I believe that the day of the good fellow' politician has passed; that the time is tone when a candidate for a high municipal office should be just a good fellow. I believe that a different, a newer standard is being set and that on this standard, in letters a foot high, is the watchword, 'efficiency.' " Others who addressed the meeting were Jere T. Hagerty, Sam Cnger. John Cdllen. Mike Hor. ath. and Kdv.ard Luther. Harvey Rostiser supporters, both men and women, are invited to the Klder school Wednesday night to attend the Rostiser mass meeting. On Thursday there will be a meeting at River Park Thursday niuht in he interest of Rostiser's election.

CAN USE CASTOFFS New Director of Local Home Asks That Old Clothing be Given. An appeal to Jouth Kend citizen? for assistance in caring- for men who seek shelter at the Salvation, army industrial home has been issued by Envoy G. F. Heniniier, who recently came here from Kalamazoo to take tharsre of the home. . Although the home is in a measure self-supporting the men who work there for their room and board and a small weekly bonus collecting rags, paper, books, magazines and other articles which are sorted and then sold as junk or paper making material, there are innumberable calls received at the home for clothes not only from the men but from needy families about town. Two wagons are employed by the home which collect waste materials and Envoy lleninaer aks that instead of housewives throwing old varments away or selling; them to im: men and junk dealers they call the home and turn the stuff over to the Salvation army. For the benefit of those people who do not like to accept charity but cannot afford to pay enormous sums for clothes or furniture the army conducts a store in the building where a small sum is charged for articles. Hnvoy Heincer says that the home aims to give every man a chance to get back on his feet after he ha:-; fallen from grace through drink or other habits and that when a man applies for help he is taken in without question and permitte-i to stay around the home for a few days until a situation can be secured for him. Fifteen. 20 and 2 5 cnt "Mops" are furnished the men and they are fed in a kitchen in the ho.ne of the enoy which adjoins th Industrial home. The cookini? is done by Mrs. Henincer. These men. accord iing to the enoy. are fellows mot o:' whom desire to work but on account of past le-eords in their home towns or maybe prison records are frowned upon by people with whom they come in contact.
