These are sins that exist, but are
covered and hidden from the rest of the
world. They are the sins that we our
selves are conscious of, the sins that
gradually work up us until they fill
our minds and drag us down.
For this there is nothing better than
the word of God. Study the scriptures
to know them, to love them and to live
them. The old saying that the idle brain
is the DEVILS workshop is as true as
gospel, as is the other saying an idle
brain tempts the devil.
eff a photographer should come into
the city to photograph the hearts OF
men, how many of us would care to
stand before him. How many are enter
tanning secret sins that are covered
from family, friends, business associ-
ates and others? We imagine that we
have them under our control, that we
are their masters But all the time the
fear Of their presence fills the mind, we
work and worry and they finally drag
us down. The only secret is pure
mind and a pure life. eLarn to think
right and feel right and you must live
right.
tin these noon meetings, which as
has been announced, will be open to
all, both men and women, [ shall try
to present simple truths that will help
all. The purer and better life is what
we want to urge upon you all; we will
present the world old truths and ask
you to think of them, to entertain
| them and to learn to live Them

Growing interest on the part of the
people of Minneapolis marked the sec
ond day of the general religious cam
paign which is being conducted by y.
Wilbur Chapman and assistant evan
gelists. The meetings last night were
attended by larger audiences, the con,
tagion of religious zeal for souls seemed
to have more thoroly seized the assist
ant workers, the choruses sang with
more effect and more persons showed a
sincere desire to begin more spiritual
life.
St. Paul, previous to the campaign
lust closed, had not anticipated large
Immediate results. Most marvellous
work was done by DR.. Chapman and
his band of speakers and singers. on
the contrary, Minneapolis has expected
that end. It is expected that the re-
:vival here will be the beginning of the
qworld-wide evangelism for which
general committe in New York has been
preparing prayerfully for several years:
DR., Chapman uttered the keynote OF
this hope at the Y. M. C. A. men 8
meeting in the Auditorium Oct. %. He
said that this wave of word transfer
nation might we'll begin here. He has
been echoed by members of the band
of evangelists, and by the Minneapolis

now getting under way.

Strong men wept and women sobbe(
at the pathos of the address. Softenet
hearts were thus prepared as fallov
ground for the message with which DR.
Chapman ended his sermon. With tn
closing song by Fred Butler, "Home
= Sweet Home,'' the effect was complete
; As the full notes Of the basso vote

were plentiful.
The text was, "What have they see7

:. "The great need of America toda:
