BILLY WILLIAMS
SUNDAY NIGHT
Every Seat Was Taken at the First
Christian Church When the Drum
mer Evangelist Delivered
His Address.
BREAKING HOME TIES
An Eloquent Appeal for the Open
Bible In tho Homes Of all
Classes Of
People.
BREAKING HOME TIES

Every seat was taken at the First
Christian church last evening when
the drummer evangelist delivered his
address entitled Breaking Home
Ties" This talk was suggested to Mr..
Williams by a picture of the same
name. 1t can be found upon the wall
in nearly every Young Mems Christian
Association In the land It was one
of three pictures which won premiums
at the Chicago worlds fair This pic
ture Is considered one of the best, and
the large audience showed their ap-
probation by giving the evangelis.
their closest attention throughout his
talk which consumed one hour and
ten minutes.
The meeting opened with a song
service under the direction of Pro-
fessor UT. Professor UT also con-
tributed two songs entitled Pass it
On" and my Mothers Bible" Mrs.
UT presided at the piano during the
evening.
The evangelist pleaded for the open
Bible in every home, and said in part:
Give me boy from the poorest
home where the Bible Is an open book
rather than boy from the richest
home where the Bible is closed book
There are seventy-five millionaires in
Chicago today whose treasure houses
are closed to the access of their sons
Why3 Because the fathers cannot
trust their SONS with the key.
There is something better than
railroad bonds and stock to leave to
your children. II these are secured at
the cost of a closed Bible on the cen
ter table or vacated family altar /
plead with you fathers and mothers in
whose homes the Bible has been a
closed book to open it and give your
children the treasures which are
richer than bonds and stocks. Money
is a good thing to have when proper
ly handled but a curse when it IL
abused.

from the home where the Bible is
opened, but from the homes where it
is pushed aside and cards and drink
takes the place. Every boy should
learn that a dollar has 100 cents in it

rottenness, gets in the corner of the
room; mother busy with some social
craze or her club life gets off is the
corner; the boy wallups up and down
the room for a while until he hears
a whistle outside. he joins the whistle,
down the street they go. Soon they
are sucking at the butt of cigarette;
a fool at one end and a little fire at
the other, and two fools at home
blaming the church, the preacher and

long enough to have little innocent

you drive your boy Or girl to the street
you send them to the devils college,
and one hour can tear down all the
church and Sunday school can build
up in a month. A boy will dig fish

The evangelist closed his address
with beautiful word picture of the
old home with its flreside prayer

Y BOARD ROOSEVELT TRAIN,

ON BOARD ROOSEVELT TRAIN,
Ind, Oct. 21.-The col
onel was still reading when his train
reached here. Mrs. Roosevelt was
with him. DR.. Lambert seemed pleas
ed with the patients change OF atti-
tude. The moment Roosevelt entered
his compartment, he seemed delighted
at the thought that he was at last on
the way home. His previous impa-
tience disappeared and he showed his
inclination to adhere strictly to the
orders Of his physicians.
Dr.. Lambert said: THE colonel is
in good shape. He is resting com
fortably.'
Always Hungry.
ON BOARD ROOSEVELT TRAIN,
FORT WAYNE. Ind, Oct. 21.-Just
before reaching here, the physicians
in attendance on Colonel Roosevelt
gave out the following bulletin:
Colonel Roosevelt is resting we'll
and is very comfortable, pulse, temper
ature and respiration normal.
(Signed)
ALEXANDER LAMBERT,
"SCURRY L. TERRELL.
The colonel is bearing up we'll,
said Lambert. This morning there
was some oozing from the wound, but
this is not at all unusual, it is simply
drainage and will help along the heal
ing process The colonel is always
hungry-his stomach is in that con
dition that he wants to eat and will
eat almost anything. Altogether he
is In excellent condition
''The colonel is getting along all
right" was DR.. Terrelps comment.
Il hope the train hasn't 1olted toe
much" said one OF the railroad mon
abroad.
NO Terrell replied, as long as
you go on this way everything will be
satisfactory.
Since leaving Chicago Roosevelt,
has spent most of the time in reading
and chatting with members of his
family. At Fort Wayne, the colone
was sound asleep. Small crowds hav.
! met the train at each stop, but at
/ tempts to see Roosevelt have been un
successful. The would-be visitorI
have been mostly women and children
and their demeanor is a strarN con
trast to the boisterous cheers tina
