RICH NAN AND LAzRUS
This Parable Is ChrisfS Picture OF the
Cost of 4 Soul.

The most intense service OF the
revival led by George Stuart and
Mr. Excel was held last evening.
The audience room and Sunday
school annex were both packed and
many went away unable to obtain |
seats
The tabernacle is a necessity SO |
soon as the weather will permit Its
use.
Mr. Excel 10 {. master OF his art

~The Rich Man and Lazarus
! made the theme for Evangelist
! Stuart's stirring appeal last night
The reporter got SO busy listening
that he can make but poor report.
In fact. you can't write George /
Stuarts persuasive earnestness on
paper, anyway. You must hear him,
see him, feel the spiritual atmos-
phere of the room where he breaches
to get one of his sermons. WHAT /
shall it profit a man If he gain the {
whole world and lose his own soul, I
says the scripture II
Your soul cost the blood OF Christ {
and if YOU ever lose it tell me how
can YOU buy it back again. Riches
and poverty do not make heaven ana :
hell of themselves Who is rich after
all? It's how you got what you have :
and what YOU are doing with 1t. rms !
parable is not on riches and poverty +
1t is Christ picture of the cost OF
a soul. Pictures of life, death ana
eternity of two men.
Christ's own picture. | am just go ,

at it tonight Oh, the deceltfulness :
of riches. Five millionaires of New :
York said. mo, riches don't make
MS happy" \ great millionaire OF
Minnesota told me the difference
was more work and more worry
than when he was poor boy. so A.,
evil necessarily In riches. My tight
is that YOU plank down your soul TO
ger them. Got your soul right ana
then make Your figures and God viii
help Won add up the column.
