MANY SOULS
FOR CHRIST
A TOTAIj OP 078 HAVE ACCEPT-1
ED CHRIST AS THEIR PER
SONAIj SAVIOUR INTENSE IN
TEREST TAKEN IN TABERNA
CLE SERVICES.
nev. George W. Taylor and his
ovungellstlc company are progress
ing nicely In their work of soul-snv-Ing
at the tabernacle on 12th and
Ferry streets. Never before have
the people of Salem been so rellg
ously stirred as at the present time.
Largo audiences are w.endlng their
way to tho tabernacle each' evening
to hear the speaker present the gos
pel in his characteristic way, and
many are being blessed and brought
into the folds of Christianity.
Tho largo chorus choir, under the
direction of L. A. Wegner, s fur
nishing some fine music in song, and
Mr. Wegner's solo work Is far be
yond the average, growing more
popular, both In his individuality
nnd power in song, each evening as
tho meetngs progress.
The orchestra also is favoring the
large audiences with musical selec
tions that are very entertaining, and,
indeed, tho heavenly harmony that
comes from .their various instru
ments is a means of attraction that
Is worthy of much comment.
Mrs. Taylor continues her solo
work on the cornet -each evening
She has proven herself a master of
the Instrument and her audiences
are delighted with the beautiful se
lections rendered by her.
Last evening' Mr. Taylor spent a
few minutes In answer to an nrtlclu
which appeared In the Journal of
Monday night. The article under
took to refute the statements made
by Mr. Taylor In his sermon on
"Hell." The reply was very brief,
but to the point and while devoid of
the abundance of the scriptural ref
erences, was filled with illustrations
that proved conclusively the points
brought out In tho sermon.
"Sunshine and Shadow" was tho
topic of Mr. Taylor's address last
evening, taking his text from John
8:12 "I am the light of the world:
he that followeth me shall not walk
in darkness, but shall have the light
of life." "As the sun is to the solar
system," said the speaker, "so is
Christ to the world," Impressing up
on the hearers tho need of following
Christ. Tho world is reading the
lives of Christian characters and
they must so live that the sinner
'will know Christ dwelleth In them.
God cannot look upon sin, and if we
continue in sin we must alsft con
tinue in darkness.
"There are several shadows,"
said he: "Church shadows and it
there Is any place on the face of
God's green earth where shadows
should be eliminated, it is in the
church. These come sometimes
through tho pastor who wants to
rule or won't work; through the
deacon; the Sunday school superin
tendent, tho Ladies Aid society; the
choir tho war department of thf
church." "It Is easier for a camel
to go through a needle's eye below
than for discord to go through har
mony above."
Sin, the cause of all home sha
dows, special stress being brought
upon tho drink habit. "When booze
comes into the home, happiness goes
from the woman. Booze turns the
wedding march into a funeral
dirge." Ho closed his argument by
urging upon tho people to gain the
victor's crown, and to accept tho
Christ as thefr personal Saviour.
Later It has been learned that
after tho close of tho services three I
young men went forward and ex
pressed a willingness to accept
Christ and received the blessing,
making the number of conversions
13 instead of 10 and the grand total
C81 instead of G78. It is quite out
of the ordinary In a meeting of this
knd for young men to come at the
close of tho servce and shows that
the. .spirit of God Is working upon
the people nbundantly,
