The arguments ho put forth bore con clusive evidence that one must make a decision white there la Btlll an opportunity. When the In vitation was given, six responded, there being heads of families among the number. The total of converlB to date Is eighty. Another large audience was pres ent for the service yesterday after noon when Dr. Lowry spoke on "Creation Versus Evolution." To morrow afternoon he will speak on "The Hodlly Resurrect ion." This evening the subject will be, "The Judgment Day," when he Bays he will prove from (Jod'sword that will prove from Cod's word that Ing those who know not Cod, and obey not the gospel of Jesus Christ. In speaking on the "Pleasures of Sin, last, evening, Dr. Lowry took for his text Hebrews 11:24-2(1, "Ry Faith Moses, when ho was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharoah's daughter; choosing rather 'to suffer affliction with the people of (iod, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin lor a season; estoeming tho reproach of Christ greater, riches than the treasures of Egypt." My theme, more broadly stated, might be expressed as "The devil's hid for a Man." Moses was a man of like passions as we are. If he had listened to the cries of his old Adam nature, he would have remained right there In the palace of Egypt where he could have In dulged every desire of I he flesh. No doubt he was looked upon as a fool by those who knew him lu Egypt because of the choice he made. But Moses would not sacrifice his principles of righteousness for any position of worldly honor, in. other words, Moses would rather tend sheep In the wilderness for Cod than to rulu Egypt for the dovil. Young men, young women. I nd mlre you If you are hoping that you may some day fill some posl-l lion of responsibility ami power in the world, hut he careful that you do not seek these things of the world at tho sacrifice of your principles of righteousness. Too many girls coming from our high Bchools and colleges these days poem to have no higher ambition than to shine as society belles. And of course you know what 11 takes to make n belle, don't you? A tongue and a little brass, that Is nil. Then look at our young men, many of them with no higher am bition than to play the part of a dude. And you know what a dude Is. don't you? Well, a dude Is the missing link between man and monkey. Many young people aro going a Htray these days, not because they Intended to do so. but because they had no particular aim lu life. We are told Unit a stray dog will fol low anyone. Many young people are going astray these days not because they aimed to do so, but becnuse they had no particular aim or purpOHo in life. I believe any young man or woman with grit and gumption, supplemented with the giare of (iod, can be anything worth being and do anyihing worth doing. A dead fish can drift wlih the current, but it takes a live one to go again! It. Any old thing can drift to hell, but It takes amanor woman with backbone to be a Christian. Then Moses gave up the plea sures of hIu In the choice he made "Choosing rather to suffer affile tlon . . . than to en.loy the pleas ures or i?in." There Is no denying, tho fact that the worldling gets some pleasure out of sin. 'Che Wide does not deny Unit, tin! It Is a pleasure for a season. Men and wo men everywhere naturally find It easier to live a life or sin than a life of righteousness All that I necessary for a life of in is to rest the oars and drift. I have not the least doubt that If Moses had listened to the cries or his carnal nature, lie would have remained right there lo ih, of Pharaoh, where he could have had all the plenum-en of sin that this world can afford Hut why does tho unsaved find pleasure In sin? It Is beeause they ha e never learned or anything better Why. then, do we see so many drawn away by these ihtm;s ot the world, the flesh and the devil" It Is because tliev have never really been born of Cod The llthle plainly declares. "If any man loves tho world the love of the Father Is not In him." I did not say that, that is what Cod says. Tnero aro two ways of overeom In sin and temptation; by the power of resistance and by the power of counter attraction. The Christian has tho latter method lie has Christ and salvation In his heart; therefore, having found something fnr more satlsfviiiK t'ose things of the world lose their power over him.

This President Hoover hastens to repudiate. . , If the coun try tinds the Wickersham report disappointing, and we think It will. It may be because the commission has not stood far enough away troin its subject to obtain the right perspective. In neither the report nor any of the separate reports is asked or answered the question that Dwlght W. Morrow put to the American people last May: "Is It well that large portions of our peo ple should conceive of the federal government an alien, and even a hostile power?" Oregouian, Portland, Ore.:"This newspaper . . . believes congress may well make the recommenda tion of the Wickersham commis sion's majority the test of public opinion. . . . This plan contem plates a straightforward and hon est approach to the Issue at hand. On It there is no taint of nullifi cation. . . . The Oregonlan has been, ft believes, as firm and con sistent an advocate of prohibition . ... as any. . . But it would be blind if it failed to recognize after the test of more than a decade that lifpior is not banished under na tional prohibition.' Register - Cunrd, Eugene: "The Wickersham report upholds nearly everything the drys have been fighting for and concedes to the wets the one big point they have been fighting tor, the possible need ot amendment. Everybody ought to be happy but they won't be. Politically it is smart. It means that Hoover can run again as a dry but with one hand out to the moist hrelhern." Salt Lake Telegram: Prohibition enforcement itself may be regard ed as an utter failure, after 11 years of trial. The inescapable con clusion to be drawn from the com mission findings Is that the law cannot be enforced In Its present form. New York Times: The fact of outstanding Interest in tho entire report Is Dint six of the eleven commissioners are of one mind as to the one form of modification that should be adopted. If any. Spokane Spokesman Keview: The big wet association against the prohibition amendment and Its ally, tho Modification League, Inc., will find no cheer In these declara tions. , . ! Los Angeels Times: While, m the main, tho document in strong-i ly dry It has the appearance of an effort to compromise conflicting views which cannot. In fact, be compromised and, as such, will suit nobody. Raleigh (N. C.)

Times Union: The commission's group opinion is that the country should Btaud by the eighteenth amendment and seek to Improve national prohibi tion enforcement under it. Philadelphia Enquirer: While it advocates enforcement, it. gives reasons why enforcement Is next to impossible. Cleveland Plain Dealer: Victory on Capitol Hill goes to the drys on points. Kansas City Star: Settled noth ing. New Orleans Item: The report will doubtless prove a source of political grief to Mr. Hoover. Atlanta Constitution: The moun tain has labored and produced a mouse. The chief significance of the report Is that Its members are hopelessly divided. Denver Rocky Mountain News: The flood of Wickersham reports simply adds fuel to the raging pro hibition fire. San Francisco Chronicle: A per fect picture or the state ot the public mind. Ilaltlmore Evening Sun: The Wickersham report apparently has satisfied only one man in the country, namely, President Hoov er. And he apparently read only the first paragraph of the conclu sions. Norfolk. Va.. Ledger Dispatch: Instead of aiding in the solution of the prohibition problem, the conclusion as a whole has further befuddled the situation. Portsmouth.
