ADJOURN OR ROTES Lat Night's Senlcct at tlio Rink Largely Attended "Sin; It Effwt and Cure" Is the Subject for the He- vlvaliHt'8 Dlstiouwe -Review of the Addnws as Given Latt Evening nuHincs Men's Meeting Tonight. For a long time In La Orande God'i people have occupied the conservative attitude and delight In "hand-picked1 fruit which Is always good. His Sa tanic majesty's kingdom has not been largely disturbed, however, by this process. But conditions have changed Under,' the valiant leadership of a commanding and inspiring man of God Satan' kingdom has been Invaded, his right to rule has been challenged and many are passing -over from the kingdom of darkness Into th Hndrtw of light and Satan howls. He has been hit hard and the flow of opposi tion to his Infamous rule Is fast be coming a consuming fire. Last night the rink was well filled early and the meeting Was a most ex cellent one. Mr. Haudenschleld spoke with a prophet's unction on "Sin; Its Effect and Cure." The Scriptures used were-two, "All Have Sinned" and "If we confess our sins He Is faithful and Just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness." He said In part: "All are In sin, shut up In hopeless guilt, but all may be saved by penitent confession and forsaking of sin. Sin , is the great enemy of the Individual home, of the state, of the nation." These utterances were Illustrated" and enforced. Sin may be dealt with In three ways: First, the world deals with ?ln In a hearties.? manner. A Judas iiangs himself. The accusers would tone the unfortunate woman taken In 'ier sin. But these stand by this at titude, where they can never be for given. Then the law deals with sin, ind says: "The bouI that slnaeth It ihall die." The law Is a shrewd detec 'or, pursuing In hot haste to bring a lust condemnation on the sinner. But God forgives sin when It Is con fessed and forsaken And forgiven, It 's boltted out, covered over and for totten and the sinner Is dealt with as 'hough he had never sinned. These Treat facts of gospel truth were so forcibly discussed and illustrated that trnog men and women wept and -nany came boldly to declare them jlves on the side of Christ and right eousness. So the good work goes on vlth ever-Increasing power. At 3 this afternoon a mots delight- 'ul meeting and strengthening service .vas held In the First Baptist church. tere "Hindrances to Prayer" Is beliiR llscussid In a series of able discourses. ronlght the meeting will bo of deep nd pungent Interest to business peo de of the city. Mr. Haudenschleld vill discuss the question, "Will It ?ay?" Men of the city, Satan Is a '.ard master. His wages are death anC loom. But "acres of diamonds" He it your feet; rich treasures had for he gathering. Don't, fail to hear thli "nessage.
