At this time it is apparent to
all parties, except, of course, fel'
lows who are so party prejudiced
that they cannot see otherwise,
that the Democrats are going
to take home the bacon" all
along the line this year. The
Republicans are badly split up
with standpatism, progressiveism
and damphoolism, and a lot Of
other iSms, and they just can't
get together. 1t is only a ques'
ton of majority in every pre-
cinct and road district in the
United States. 1t would perhaps
be just as we'll if it was not SC
one.sided, but this does not alter
the fact that it is. We believe,
as does almost everybody else,
that the Democrats will elect
to every county Office, and will
not be one bit surprised if they
win practically every Office in the
United States. One thing il
sure-they have a clean bunch
of candidates.

SOUL WINNING is THE
GREATEST BUSINESS

soul to Him is worth more than all
other wealth and glory.
Fifty thousand dollars will buy
the average young man through
ticket to He'll, and often the first thing
he will do will be to buy it and check
his baggage through. 1t will be worth
more to your boy to be led to Christ
than for you to leave him wealth.
"In many churches soul winning is
becoming lost art. The great COM
mission ought to be rendered, for the
modern church, go we into all the
world and get up ice cream socials
and bazaars and rummage sales to
support the church. Luke 9:23 ought
to be rendered, "Take up your ice
cream freezer daily and follow me-"
This is not Christian work. Soul win
ming is the natural expression of the
life of converted man. 1 tremble for
that man who makes a confession of
Jesus Christ and than never tries to
lead anyone to Christ. He'll will be so
full of that kind of Christians that
their feet will be sticking out of the
windows.
"Then soul winning brings great
final reward. If you would be soul
winner you must be wise. You must
know you are saved. You must know
how to do Christian work, too. 1t isn't
necessary for you to go to a theologi-
cal cemetery to learn how to become
a soul winner. I'd about as soon ex-
pect to hear of revival in He'll as
in Chicago University or Harvard or
some others of these schools. You can
learn from your own Bible and the
Holy Spirit.
The reason a lot of the churches
are not soul winning is because you
delegate the work Of the church to
your pastor and you go to the dance or
the card party or the theatre and
giggle over fallen men and women,
while the world is going to the Devil |

SO fast you can't see them for the
dust
MANY do not have any realizing
sense that souls out of Christ are real
ly lost.
eff there is no jeopardy then there
| is no need of an atonement, no
churches, no ministers. Unless souls
out of Christ are lost then the putting
up of this tabernacle was a piece of
gigantic foolishness. Those in jeop-
ardy may be those of your own house
hold, those nearest and dearest to you.
MANY people say they haven't time
to do Christian work. Men are too
much immersed in business and wom-
ell are too deeply engaged in 'sassiety'
life to help anyone to Christ.
MANY are not entering into Christ
ian work because their lives are not
right. They need to get right with
God. Many of you people have been
compromising yourselves by ungodly
living and you need to get right be-
fore you can win anyone.
"You say you have no opportunities,
but there are souls in this town that
you can win and no one else can.
MANY people do not enter into
Christian work because they have no
compassion or love for the lost sin
ner"
At the close of the sermon Professor
Moody very effectively sang, THE
Ninety and Nine"
Following this was held workers
service for study and preparation for
personal work, after which Mr..
Lowry called for all to stand who
were ready to enter into a covenant
to do personal work in soul winning.
More than one hundred and fifty
Christians covenanted with the evan
gelist to do personal work whenever
the opportunity offered in the meet
ing.
