SCORES
THE DANCERS
IMMENSE EDDYvlLlE CROWDS
OUT TO HEAR EVANGELIST
ON ADJUSTMENTS.

Eddyville. March 2S.-(Special Cor.
respondence)-In spite of counter at
fractions in town, Eddyville turned out
en- masse to hear Rev. Pehlps on the
subject, Should u Christian Dance,
Play Cards or Go to the Theater?"
Evangelist Phelps gives a very en-
phatic mo" to this question and tells
why. He says that when some men
pieces. They're like barrel when
the hoops drop off and the slaves fall
apart. AS long as they're home the
hoops OF home influence keeps them
together Returning to the subject OF
Christians dancing, playing cards
and attending the theater, Evangelist
Phelps says these three things are to
be judged by the influence as an in.
stitution at large and not from the
standpoint of the influence on the in
dividual. Why is it that people out
side the church think that those on
the inside who do these things are
hypocrites? How is 1t that they seem
to feel instinctively that 1t hinders the
spiritual life? Rev. Phelps goes on to
say why he scores these three pleas
ures when INDUCED In by protesting
Christians. In the first place dancing
permits liberties which would not be
tolerated off the dance floor. The
dance is unhealthy. During the pro-
gram of the average dance you dance
twelve miles. Overheated rooms and
exposure near an open window or out
on the balcony will bring on heavy
colds and perhaps pneumonia. It's
burning the candle at both ends and
running red hot poker through the
center. The dance Is hugging match.
If it weren't the married men would
dance with their mothers-in-law and
the young chaps with their sisters A
we'll known stage manager and theater
man has said that he never could per-
nit his wife and two daughters to
lead the theatrical life. He knows too
we'll what 1t means. And yet minis
tiers of the gospel and other profess
ing Christians were in attendance at
the performance of "Bluebeard" which
was being given when the Iroquois
burned down and those Christians in
attendance went out to meet their God
with ribald song ringing in their
ears. l don't want to go that way.
Evangelist Phelps says some folks
say they want their young people to
learn to play cards at home, in nice
place so that they won't want to go out
somewhere else and play. They may
start out in a nice place but they
don't end up where they started. An
ex-gambler says the quiet game Of
cards In the home is the kindergarten
to the gamblers den.
Revival is reaching climax and
converts coming forward every night.

CLEAN, THEN STERILIZE.


Fumigation by means Of formalde-
hyde, sulphur candles and like
methods is all right as far as it goes,
but the best way to fumigate build
ings, and especially school buildings,
is to Just take big quantities of soan
and water and good strong brush in
hand that is attached to an arm that
has an elbow in it that is in fine work
ing condition and scrub, scrub, scrub.
When that kind of combination in
telligently directed has completely
gone over the inside of house, it is
not going to make a great deal of diff
ference if the other forms of fumiga.
ton are slightly neglected. The best
way to clean house and make it
desirable to live in, whether a school
house or residence, is by the soap
and water process first and then paint
it and parer it. In school houses the
under part of the desks and seats, rs
we'll as all the iron work and wood
work should be thoroughly scrubbed
and cleaned every year! If that spoils
the finish on them, they can be warn.
ished again. +.
Don't he so anxious to sterilize that
you forget cleanliness. And this is
not meant to belittle the great neces-
Sity of fumigation, either.
