throng of people stood, signifying
their response to the passionate ap
peal of the sermon and at a call from
the evangelist for the men of the
congregation who desired to have
their lives channels through which
God could touch every one they
touched abeGt 200 men from all parts
of the house, crowded about the chancel.
In the afternoon service Hauuen
schield gave an exceedingly helpful
talk to Christian people on "Success
and Failure" in the Christian life.
The keynote was "be definite in (1)
your conversion; (2) your consecra
tion; (3) your baptism of the spirit
and ( 4 ) your prayers.
The evening address was on "The
Law of God." The laws of God are
upon every one, Christian or not. Be
cause a citizen does not pretend to try
td keep the law of the land dofes not
excuse him in the eyes of the court
for breaking the law rather it con
demns him. He must pay the pen
alty for broken law. So also with
God's law. Every one 13 under law
and every sin will have to be atoned
for. The speaker held up before the
congregation the laws of God (te-.t
commandments) one by one as a mir
ror In which to see their sin.
Scores stood signifying a desire to
avail themselves of the atonement fori
sin which Christ has made and nine I
persons took the further step of avail
ing themselves of the atonement and
experiencing the truth of John 1:8,
"If we confess our sins He Is faith
ful and Just to forgive us our sins and
cleanse us from all unrighteousness."
There will be services every night
this week at 7:30 and every after
noon at 2:30.
From 12 to 2 0 Cottage Prayer
meetings will be held every morning
at 9 o'clock. Subject tonight, "The

Every man who came Into the smok
ing room was asked who surrendered
West Point or tiled to surrender It
to the British, and every man named
Benedict Arnold. After four persons
hnd thus decided the bet the cockney
permitted the stnke holder to turn over
tho money to 1110. which ho did, to the
cockney's apparent discomfiture. He
was surly about It and vowed he'd get
even with me before the end of the

self for being led Into taking the fel
