"RETRIBUTIVE"
JUSTICE; A HE'LL

There is increased interest IN
the religious revival led by Rev.
A. L. Burch at the big taber-
nacle.
Song service and preaching
every afternoon at 2:3O and
every night at Z :15.
Persons hit the saw dust trail
at every service.
Friday night the Evangelist
talked on the subject, Glow l
Know There Is Hell.
know there is hell, said the
Evangelist, because it is taught
in the Word of God.
1t is intuitive in the belief of
every nation and tribe-back in
the very beginning of history
down to now. There has never
been any division along this line
of belief.
Every law carries its own pen
atty. God is a God of law. The
human believes in retributive
justice. The laws of men demand
a punishment for violations of
mems laws. God did not create
men to damn them, but they in
fiict upon themselves the divine
penalty by their own deliberate
choice.
The men who, in secrecy,
would lay their hands upon the
virtuOus daughters of the City of
Mexico, and plunge them into
the hells of prostitution, could
not expect to enter Gods King
dom. They are not entitled, from
a standpoint of justice, to min
gle. with the pure and undefled.
The Evangelist Sunday night
used the following text, eff the
righteous scarcely be saved,
where shall the ungodly and the
sinner appesrH" The sermon
was a powerful appeal, and Al
persons were converted. A null
titude crowded the big taber-
nacle. Persons of every protest
ant denomination of the city are
lending their assistance in the
meeting. The converts will go
to the church of their choice.
Over $400 was pledged Sunday
night toward paying for the
building of the tabernacle.

SELLS FLOWERS

Meanest Man Collects Bouquets at
Cass School Intended for Graves
of Soldiers.
SELLS THEM TO SALOON KEEPER

Boys, girls and teachers of Cass
school believe the meanest man in
the world called at this school Fri
day for flowers for decoration of SOL
dlers' graves and then sold some of
the bouquets at saloon at Sixteenth
and Webster streets.
When a group OF youngsters recognized
some OF their flowers decorating the win
dows OF this saloon. they rushed back
to the school and reported the matter
70 Miss Kate L. Brown. principal, who
went 10 the saloon and confirmed the
report OF the children. The incident was
reported to the superintendent's office.
A man with small express wagon
called at the school and said he had
collected flowers from other schools for
the Women's Relief corps. He showed
card bearing list OF schools. He took
the Cass school floral contributions.
which had been bought by the children
OF this district, as very few homegrown
flowers are raised in this neighborhood.
The children saved their pennies for this
occasion and did not want to be behind
other schools in the giving OF flowers
for honoring the graves of the nation s
fallen heroes.
When they observed the corner saloon
windows abloom with the flowers they
had tenderly carried to the school for |
loftler purpose. their indignation reached
the heights OF childish disappointment
and Amusement.
The saloon man told the principal he
bought some flowers from the express
man described as the man who had
called at the school. and he offered e
soften the situation by returning the
flowers TO the school.

FOR WHAT OTHER PURPOSE?

The moving picture show has be- come powerful factor in arousing the prejudice of thoughtless and weak minded people against the liquor in- terests, and particularly against the saloon." says the Liberal Advocate, a liquor dealers organ.
 Tn virtually every blood and thun- der and crime film produced there is sure to be scene depicting a bunch of lowbrows plotting some villainy from burglary to murder while lick ing up liberal libations of liquor to give them the proper amount of cour- age to accomplish their deed.
 Each day thousands of these films are portrayed to millions of men, women and children in every part of the country, and those who know no better, and many who ought to know better, soon become imbued with the belief that liquor is only manufactured and saloons established for the pur- pose of increasing lawlessness and crime"

PAYS NOTHING BACK.

This from Billy Sunday:
 The saloon comes as near being a rat hole for a wage earner to dump his wages in as anything you can find. The only interest it pays is red eyes and foul breath and the loss of health. You go in with money and you come out with empty pockets. You go in with character and you come out ru- ined. You go in with a good position and you lose it. You lose your posi-, tion in the bank, or in the cab of the locomotive. And the saloon pays noth- ing back but disease and damnation and gives an extra dividend in delir- ium tremens and a free pass to per dition. And then it will let your wife be buried in the potter's field, and your children go to the asylum, and yet you walk out and say that the saloon is a good institution, when it is the dirtiest thing on earth. It hasn't one leg to stand on and has nothing to commend it to a decent man, not one thing"

FROM MANY WITNESSES.

.>~-~~-~~-~~~0~0~~~~~~~~ FROM MANY WITNESSES.
 In summing up complete refuta- tion of the statements sent out by the National Wholesale Liquor Dealers as eociation in an article on Facts About Prohibition in Kansas" Governor Ar thur Capper says:
 Let us call the witnesses and see what they think of prohibition in Kansas. If anyone should know, they should know, for they live with it and under it:
 The governor of Kansas says pro- hibition is a great success.
 Every state official who has spoken out says prohibition succeeds.
 More than 700 editors and newspa- per men of Kansas in state conven- tion, unanimously endorsed prohibit ton.
 Every political party in Kansas fa- vors the prohibition law.
 No minister has ever opened his mouth in favor of return of license; neither has any schoolteacher
 The president of Kansas Retailers says prohibition pays.
 The president of the State Bankers association believes that prohibition is a tremendous asset to Kansas.
 One hundred and sixty-six bankers have filed their testimony in favor of the law with the Temperance society of the Methodist Episcopal church, and only six could be found in all the state who doubted the wisdom of this legislation.
 The president of the Kansas Medi- cal society believes in prohibition.
 The president of the Commercial clubs of Kansas has said that prohlbi- tion has added real value to every acre of Kansas land
 The supreme court has testified in the following strong language to the benefits of the prohibition law;
 The prohibitory law is we'll en- forced throughout the state. It is as generally well enforced as any other criminal law. The enforcement of the law distinctly promotes social welfare and reduces to a minimum economic waste consequent upon the liquor traf- flee and allied evils. The saloonkeeper and his comrades have been excluded from effective participation in the poli- tics of the state"
 And to completely settle the ques- tion for all time the legislature of Kansas, not by a majority, but unan- imously passed at it's last session a concurrent resolution affirming in no uncertain language it's belief in the ad- vantage of prohibition.
