Large Crowd Hear Yesterdays sefmoa
 7, At St. Peter's.
 Another large congregation attended yesterdays mission service at St. q strong sermon was preached by Fa- thsr Lee, who said. in part:
 "Sin Is the enemy of life. The greatest evil in the world. It. would defeat the purpose of life. bring final disgrace, shame misfortune and ruin It harrows up the soul with fear and remorse, in the end it casts 1t over to the pillows of despair.
 Its dark clements are impiety, re- volt and ingratftude, all ropulsive to men. but most repuisive to God, to whom are due love. reverence and obedience of the highest order.
 Mortal sin is a grievous violation of Gods law, and makes us an enemy of the Great Creator, destroys the reten- tiSn of Friendship. robs us of merit. and prepares us for hell, The wages of sin is death
 Between God and sin there can be no truce. He that commftteth sin is of the devil John i:1-S. Who commits sin betrays God and hates his own soul. He that loveth iniquity hateth his own soul Psalm x-16.
 When we turn to the world about we easily realize how hideous and fear full sin is. AHow we abhor murder pro- fanity. iinpurity. drunkenness, robbery. lying and many other crimes so com mon amongst men.
 "The very fact that society strives to protect itself against sin, would indicate It's fatal results. Just as the home and the State must contend against it, so must the individual. if he would live in the favor of conscience. and the hope of reward. if he would fulfill his present destiny and attain his eternal destiny.
 'Sin. death, punishment. Given the first. by the justice of God the others must follow unless the sinner repents and amends.

COUNCIL SHOULD
GET AFTER THE
BILL BOARDS
The UnsightIy Advertisements
Should Be Doomed Along
With the Weeds and Rubbish
About the City,

1t has been suggested by a number
of citizens that while the city council
is conducting its cleanup crusade in
preparation for the territorial fair,
one of the chief matters that should
be attended to is that of removing
many of the unsightly bill boards
which deface the main streets and
mar the general attractiveness of the
city. The effect of neat and pretty
residence surrounded by a we'll kept
lawn is nullified when right on the
next lot is a row of bill boards adorn-
ed with lurid advertisements of pat
ent medicines, corsets. book beer and
breakfast foods. Unsightly is the
mildest term which can be applied to
many of these horrors. The larger
cities have included the bill boards in
their improvement crusade, and the
effect has been proven to be most
desirable.
