SUBJECT OF STRONG MARTINA FAST
DAUGHTER MEANS IN HER MOTHER
WORLDLY AMusEM CONDEMNED.

At 3 o'clock Sunday afternoon
very large audience assembled at the
Martin-Scholfield tent. Before the
services were over a heavy downpour
of rain caused considerable moving
around among the audience to keep
from getting drenched. Owing to the
fact that the people could not get
away the services were prolonged to
near O'Clock, and it was six before
all the people were able to leave the
tent
The choir singing was excellent.
Among the pieces sung were On to
the land of Glory" There IS Power
in the Blood" and "All Hail Imman-
uel." Mr. Walter Scholfield a young
err brother of the song service leader,
with clear tenor voice, rendered as

handed in, as whether or not the negro

man who originated the damnable
heresy" that the negro has no soul,
that If there is no hell big enough

He added that his imitators are no
better than he.

board as in the average chaperone."

only thing in human society that is
dependent for it's existence upon the
mingling of the sexes. He said
that If there was law which provid-

Sunday Morning Service.
At the morning service a very large
crowd filled the tent, and after the
service ended expressions were heard
declaring that had been the best
service since the meeting began. The
music at this service was fully up to
the standard already established by
Mr.. and Mrs. Scholfiold
Mr.. Martin took as his text az ex-
cerpt from LIST Peter, 20: ''Ye are
that We may" He said too many
christians are taking the I'VE are" to
themselves, forgetting that We may"
God saves men that they may glorify
Him. Quoting, he said, I'VE are bought
with a price, therefore glorify God
with your body. Ye are saved from
all sin in order that we may be jealous
in good works." Completing his text,
he said, we are an elect race, a royal
priesthood, an holy nation" He
exclaimed, men and women if you
haven't respect for God, have enough
respect for your intellect not to boot
lick the infidel by saying God is the
father of everybody" God redeemed
you that we might receive the adop-
ton of sons. God says to the I'M
righteous, we are of your father the
devil
"Hattiesburg is facing crisis. This
town will become veritable hell hole
If christians do not do their duty"
said he. He took Baptist, Presbyte-
rian, Methodist and all the christian
churches to task for allowing vice and
organized evil houses of shame to
flourish in Hattiesburg. He said his
cheeks tingled with shame when he
referred to Baptist as IAN holy ma
ton when some live as they do. He
asked, Are your redeemed? Are you
an elect race? Suppose an earth
quake should suddenly come and de-
stroy you, where would your soul go?
And added, you can be certain as
you pass out of this tent that you are
going to heaven"
Quoting from the Bible again, he
said, Il have chosen you for the pur-
pose of revealing myself to the world
through you How? BY your indi-
vidual lives. Church life can never
rise above individual life. A noted
infidel once said: Il have answered
every argument of christianity except
the pure, unselfsh. cody life of my
wife"
Church men who put lodge before
church were scored. Here he made |
an appeal for the early completion of
Columbia Street Baptist church, which |
he characterized as the sleeping
it might the better do
the work God has for it to do.
AT the close OF this service four |
young men and two young women |
said they were willing to go to the
foreign field or wherever God directs. |
Two professed conversion and were
received into the church as candi- |
dates for baptism. SIX joined the

Power of the Human Eye

 News Letter.
 How often we say IT recognized him sometimes at distances that make us doubtful Now the German government has made scientific investigations showing the distance at which this recognition may be considered reliable. According to their report a man with good eyes will recognize Il person seen once before at distance not greatly exceeding S2 feet; An intimate acquaintance may be recog- nized at from 1G9 to 320 feet; and very dear friend or relative up to 800 feet.
 The rifleman can discern the differ ent parts of his adversary's body and every decided movement at about 300 feet, and q movement of the legs or arms up to a little more than twice that distance. At GOO yards @ moving man Is mere creeping blur on the landscape, and at 800 yards any movement of the arms or legs are no longer visible.
 Of course there are averages such as the jurist must recognize in weighing evidence of witnesses, and the military leader in noting the position of his antag- onist and the outside limit of rifle and pistol fire Then there are exceptions to these rules. Hunters, seacoast dwellers, prairie cattlemen and farmers whose sight unweakened by civilized life and trained by constant exercise of Tong sight" will often nearly double the aver age given. So, too. the clearer air of the elevated prairies and table lands certain ly doubles the power of the human eye.

Digging Up a Greek City
n the Christian Herald.

iOAll AHt AilA lSlldu
 Fortunately, in visiting Corinth today, we can come a little nearer to the city as St. Paul saw it than if the squalid Greek village which now occupies it's site were all that We could see. This indeed years ago. when the American School of Archaeology undertook to lay bare some of Corinths ancient glores. In 1896 their excavations were begun, and have been richly rewarded. It has been no easy task to dig down through layer after layer of superimposed ruins. Romans, Siclians, Venecians, Turks, in their sue cessive occupations, had done their best to obliterate all traces of the old Corinth They had carried off the marbles and the noble statues, and had built these stones, defaeed and dishonored, into the walls of their fortresses or their pgsties.
 Going through a wicket gate which ad- mits 10 the ruins, we come first to a marble-paved street which led from the market place toward the western harbor of Corinth on the gulf. This was once flanked with colonnades and behind these on one side are the ruins of l6 shops. IL is known for a certainty that this marble paved street and these shops belong to the first century of our era. If the water were still running, we might even drink at the fountain, which has also been dis covered.
 To the right. as we face the fountain, on low hill is the most interesting ruin of Corinth-the great temple, probably dedicated to Apollo. Originally this tenn pie had 15 massive columns on each side and six at each end, but only seven of them are standing today. They are hewn out of a single rock To record the fact that each column was over 2S feet high, nearly six feet in diameter at the base and over four feet at the top gives but a faint idea of this magnificent temple. which, in Corinths days of splendor was probably her most conspicuous building, as it is now her most magnificent ruin.

men to come upon 1t. Among those who are already members are Mrs. Archibald Little. Mrs. Percy Blgland and Miss Jo- sephine Marshall"
 Lady Bunting, the treasury of the the committee was, like the bill. an ab- solutely non party one. Nor Is it at al suffragist movement" she added. Tn deed, we appeal to anti-suffragists ever more than to suffragists to pass the bill as they claim that the affairs of women can be attended to better without vote than with it. Let them prove this by helping to pass this bill on which we are all agreed"
 Referring to clause 1 of the bill, which gives the police the right to arrest with out a warrant, Lady Bunting remarked This clause is objected to on the ground that it infrlnges the liberty of the sub feet, and would permit of blackmail. Of course, if you have corrupt police you can have blackmail anywhere. The police must have more power. We shall fight most strongly of all for clause 1.''
 As an illustration of this need Lady Bunting related the following incident. Recently young girl was standing look ing at some embroidery in window of shop in Regent street. A well and styllshly dressed lady approached her and said. T see you are interested in em- broiderY: so am ], but l have some much more beautiful work at home than you see in that window Would you care to see It? rf so, my motor car Is here and we could ride home together?" This was not the whole conversation, of course be- cause the lady had to win the girls con. fidence sufficiently to put her off her guard before she suggested the motor car home.
 The girl agreed, and was about 10 get into the car. when the commissionaire of the shop. who fortunately had over heard the conversation. and watched the incident from it's beginning, ran forward and said to the girl: "On no account go with this woman; we know what she is The eommissionaires. said Lady Bunting. and the police are on the alert, but the latter need more power The bill has the support of all parties in the house.
