trate few facts. [ have been
told that around the pulpit IS the
most sacred place of all. There
was time back in other days
when the place was used as sucn,
but today We are drifting far
away from the old land mark.
We come to church TO worship
Goa in spirit, but then we reverse
the matter and turn the house of
God, Which we dedicated to God,
into play house, not only a
play house but a house of mer-
chandise.
We as heads of the church, yes
the very main pillars Of the
church will close our eyes to
these facts. But God sees us
with an ever watchful eye. For
the time is come that Judgment
must begin at the house of God.

obey not the gospel. Il Peter

Now my friends, we have to do
better than We are doing We
must not become SO involved in
money matters that we cannot
respect the House of God Please
tell NE how do you expect TO get
young people III the church. Is
it by giving moving picture
shows and comic operas in the
house Of God? No you have 10
keep close to the altar of God.
We stand up and say we are
christians, If we are, let US come
out fully on God S side and He
will ta Ike care of us. If we have
no other way whereby we can
not raise money for our necessi
ties, taan to give moving picture
shows and operas in church. I
say it is best for US TO not raise
any money at all. Let US take
our entertainments where they

WEATHER. TO BURN.

Extreme degrees of heat and cold have
prevailed in the United States and abroad
this week. Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas
and Oklahoma have reached from 10 to 112
degrees, while all the Southern States have
suffered from the heat, New York has
been shivering with the thermometer at Sc,
Fort Worth dripped with perspiration at 100
degrees. Not to be outdone in freakishness
cables us from South Africa
that she has drawn a snow storm in the lot

Covington with from SO to 1O2 degrees of

storm look like thirty cents.

them on his rice farm, which will be much
more pleasant than lying in Jail. He also
proposes to use his endeavors to have Judge
Burns credit such prisoners, in case of con-
viction, with the time SO worked, same to be
deducted from their sentence.
1t is not to be doubted that many are
made permanent criminals by being thrown
into intercourse with oldtime offenders in
jails or in working in public with gangs.
To those who have committed their first Of
tense such an experience is humiliating,
and leaves them without that self-respect
that is necessary to lift them from degra-
dalton. Experiments made in an endeavor
to reform certain classes of criminals have
been more successful where the subjects
have been shown that all confidence in them
has not been lost. They must to certain
extent be free agents in assuming RESPONSE
bilities to induce confidence in their ability
to rise above the stigma of their condition.
Work on the rice farm will not be child S
play, but the prisoners will meet with kind
ness and justice and have the same COM
forts that other laborers have, while the
surroundings will have more Of freedom less
of the humiliation Of prison life.
