make the application personal. Give
the invitation that II there is any man
or woman In the audience sick Of sin
and self to raise their hand. He did
and the door opened and a young man
came in out OF the storm and said he
was sick OF sin and wanted to become

not heard for eight years. He knew
he could not receive an answer for
four days but none came and he was
anxious, the 9th day passed. and no
reply and then the sixth and then he
was worried. The seventh and eighth
went by, with no answer. but on the
ninth day came a letter and the envel

Il want to make this message plain
and reach every person in this place
tonight ! know men and their temp

sneers OF their crowds. There are
many here tonight who would rather
have the gang slap them on the back
and call them dead game sport than
to have God smile by seeing them
coming down the trail.

your sins and put you on the road TO

There was a boy IN Philadelphia
who one night tapped the cash drawer
In his fathers store and skipped out
with 1913. The father took the boys
picture to the police and II was sent
broadcast. The father offered large
rewards for the return OF the boy but
he could not be found. One day in
New York my old friend Sam Hadley
was sitting out in front OF his little
mission when a ragged boy came
along and said, Are you Mr.. HadIey7 ?
He replied that he was and the boy
asked him for a needle and thread to
sew up his pants. Hadley told him he
Didn't Have Much Pants
70 sew. but sent him upstairs 20 see
Mrs. Hadley. who soon had the boys
confidence and his confession. Mr.
Hadley wired the boys father in Phil
adelphia and soon a reply came back
Mr.. s. Hadiey. 3is South Water
street. New York: Send NY boy home
Get him a ticket. put him on the
Ponnsylvania train. we are hungry
for our boy and ne have forgiven him
God has authorized me 90 tell YOU
that he will forgive you and he wants
you 20 zone back home Gods prom
ises have made u possible for me q
bring this message 20 you tonight. .
