Clever Chalk Talk at Y. M. C. A. by Pit
Parker Of Newton.

The Sunday afternoon addresses at the
Y. NJ G. A. are varied In topics and meth
ods. Yesterday afternoon Pitt Parker OF
Newton interested the audience OF men

crayon sketches. He began by reading
about the Godarene demoniac and -Le

healed and helped. which had been Of
fered in His presence in Godara-
When man Is brought face TO face
with Jesus Christ he Is brought face TO
face with an opportunity which snail en-
able him TO conquer even death. IL was
also shown that the reason why men
reject Jesus Christ is because they do not
understand how He saves sinful men.
The man with the one talent did not
understand his master. Besides the sprIt
Of ignorance the spirit OF selhshness him
ders men from accepting Jesus Christ.
He said: To illustrate this was por-
trayed a man lying against a post called

band OF appetite" The story of two
boys was told. how one at frat had been
stronger physically than the other. but
ne had become addicted TO evil habits
and turned into weak loafer. while the
other recently graduated from West Point
and received lieutenant's commission.
Through the latter's influence. also
eleven Bible classes had been formed al
West Point.
He said: 1.-The habits that we are form
