IAN INEXCUSABLE CRIME"
AND MORAL QUARANTINE
Were Subjects of Sermons at Ep-
worth Methodist Church.

worth Methodist Church.
Rev. J. A. Smith, pastor of Epworth
Methodist Church, is preaching a series
of sermons, preparatory to the intro
duction of the mission work by the Sa
vannah Methodist churches. The sub
ject of the sermon yesterday morning
was An Inexcusable Crime"
The speaker characterized the great
inexcusable crime as idleness, includ-
ing physical, mental moral and spirit
ual idleness. Those who are idlers
cannot expect to reach the higher
places in life" he said. The we'll de-
veloped and admirably controlled mus
cles of the athlete are not the result
of chance, but are the reward of earn
est, faithful and continuous effort. Had
he not constantly used them they would
have become soft and useless for the
performance of any but the simplest
exercises.
The same chara cteristics are true
in the mental life Those who are men
tai idlers are bound to remain hewers
of wood and drawers of water all
through life. There can be no great
advance for the 4man without a de-
veloped mind, and idleness works
against any increase of mental ability.
The constant exercise of the powers of
the mind is all that will strengthen
and develop them.
Spiritually and morally, the same
truths hold, and idleness in either of
these means decay and retrogression.
The person who has reached a high
spiritual level or a high moral level
and then allows the moral and spiritual
powers to lie idle. will find that these
powers slowly but surely lose their
force. Often when the time comes for
their use against an immoral force
they will not respond, their power be-
ing completely lost. The sermon closed
with an earnest eXhortation to strive
against allowing the higher powers,
moral, spiritual and mental, to lie idle,
but rather to seek always for chance
to exercise them.
moral Quarantine was the subject
of the evening sermon. The speaker
called attention to the fact that inn
morality was similar to a contagious
disease, and that once it obtained even
the slightest foothold, it would slowly
spread itself until it had contaminated
the entire system. 1T must be con-
stantly fought and never allowed to Sc
cure even the slightest footholds.' said
Mr.. Smith. Effort must also be con-
tinuously made to uproot it from those
places in which it is already established.
Mr.. Smith then spoke of the different
ayuises in which immortality makes its
appearance. Among the more COM
mon forms are in the saloon and the
wine cup, in the gambling houses and
in the disreputable places of the cities,
he said "All of these evils are pres
ent in Savannah in full force, and no
effort must be spared to uproot them
They are undermining the characters
of our young people and running their
souls. A united effort must be made
to overcome them The forces of right
eousness must join hands in this cru
sade.'

Scientific observation justi6es the es-
innate tha,R daily average Of 6.500.0O
tons Of water is received into the Dead
sea from the Jordan and other sources
during the year. During the rainy sea-
son. says the Chicago Record Herald
the amount Is very much greater; dur
ing the dry season it Is Of course very
much less. but this average viii be
maintained year after yeSr. There is
no outlet. and the level IS kept down by
evaporation only, which is very rapid
because Of the intense heat. the dry at
mosphere and the dry winds which are
constantly blowing down the gorges be-
tween the mountains. This evaporation
causes n haze or mist to hang over the
lake at all times, and when It Is more
rapid than usual heavy clouds form
and thunderstorms sometimes rage with
great violence In the pocket between
the cliffs even IN the dry season. A
food Of rain often falls upon the sur
face Of the sea when the sun Is shin
ing. and the atmosphere Is as dry as
bone half mile from the shore The
mountains around the Dead sea are
rarely seen with distinctness because
Of this haze.
