To the Editor of the Register:-

To the Editor of the Register:-
Yesterday I heard a prominent citi-
zen of Brookings remark that a suit
able inscription for the citizens of
Brookings TO put upon the tabernacle
in large letters Of gold would be, What
Fools We Mortals Be-" He made this
closing remark in connection with
other remarks concerning that
horrible o%utpouring of indecency
and jesting obscenity that 7
am told that Rev. Mr.. Lowry indulged
in recently in discussing the subject
OF dancing before a mixed audience.
many OF whom were not only decent
and respectable women, but youths
and children OF a tender and peculiarly
susceptible age: an age when incalcul.
able harm may be done by such talk.
especially when proceeding from a
man who Is supposed to be not merely
decent. but a religious leader. a man
OF God. a representative of the pure
and manly Jesus.
That Mr.. LOvry's talk was Of such
a nature as to deserve the above char.
acterization. I have no doubt. One
respectable lady told my wife
that after listening to his talk she felt
Tx getting into a bath tub to. wash
ON Inc NTH he had uttered. Another
lady. universally respected and beloved

out of the abundance of the heart
the mouth speaketh." When a mans
mind is full OF the love of Jesus and
his thoughts for the good Of his fel-
low men, his words will be pure and
clean; but, if his mind is full of
vulgarity and his thoughts of lust, his
lips will continually utter ii.

of filth and f%oulness, the judgment be-
ing made from that talk. have talk
ed with a goodly number or people
since and l have yet to speak to one
who did not regret such suggestiveness
as to immortality, on the part OF the
evangelist.
The branding of people as card play
ing. theatre going and dancing Chris
tians. is a matter of little consequence.
but when a man stands before the
peoplc pouring out such w%retched filth,
~slandering the character of every man
and woman who dances, it is high
time that someone had the courage TO
II this individual in the light before
people in which he properly belongs.
How long. oh how long, will the sani-
~ OF this community Suffer this sort
OF thing to pass? If as foul stuff wore
spoken from the street corner by some
wag. and that out from under the
cloak OF religion, he would be silenced
and that rightly. The people are in
deed. long suffering and enduring much,
rather than make trouble, but as God
lives. there comes a time when this
sort OF thing must stop, and that, not
W~ithstanding the fact that il has the
sanction Of some of he churches Of
this community.
How the people of this community
can tolerate and uphold such stupid
ignorance, and such ~foulness of mouth
and how some OF the ministers a sit
day after day under such dribblings
and such ~vulgarity thereby giving it
their tacit sanction is beyond my COM
~prehension. Surely, I may yet have
10 believe that the day of miracles is
not past. in the presence of all this.
Ii the people who are opposed to this
r~eyiyalist and his language rose to the
occasion he would be asked to leave
town. He is an insult to the intelli-
gence OF thinking people which of
itself we can endure, but worse than
that. he is q yilifer of the character
OF our young men and young women
and properly should be silenced. Let
every voice be raised against his filth.
Let every man and oma who be-
leyes in common decency be outspoken
and this man must cease his onslaught
of yituperation.
God forbid that | should write thus
except solely in the interest of COM
mon decency and good morals. I
should be the last mar to lay a straw
in the way of the revival. if in my
Judgment its tendency was to beauti-
~ character and make for morality.
On the contrary. when a nan
among us whose burden of thought is
hat of escaping an old time and long
worn out heory of hell; whose indulg-
is largely that of our and
vulgar slang; whose suggestiveness
along lines of immortality is as vicious
as it is false, l wish it distinctly under
stood that I do not wish to be the last
nan to denounce such indulgences.

declared to my wife and me, that Mr..

statement, indicating that he would
never allow Mr.. Lowry 70 set foot in

I have in my possession a Water

ing Language Seems TO Characterize
Rev. Lowry's Speeches. Talk Friday

Amusements, "a Shame to C.ristian-
ity."
| wish to be counted in tbs COM
munity as an individual who takes a
firm stand against tolerating such
language as has been INDUCED in By
the evangelist. If l can pulse the
people of Bookings in any wa, I find
that there are hosts of them who are
absolutely opposed to this revival as
conducted, and especially are they dis
gusted with the suggestiveness OF the
language used by the revivalist in his
talk on Popular Amusements. I at
tended this talk Friday evening in
order to hear for myself what the re-
vivalist had to say, wishing to get my
information at first hand. That was
my first night there and it vii b. the
