WARNS MEN NOT To
DECEIVE SELVES
Or. J. c. ludgate Says Such
Are Liable to Meet
Eternal Woe.

THE soul that goes through life
self deceived. and who says ne is
not bad not a thief. a drunkard.
dissolute. immoral or DEGRADED. is
simply self deceived. and is build
ing his house character upon the
sand and when the storms OF death
Will beat fiercely upon his fOunda-
ticns they will Re washed away.
and he will go down TO eternal
death and into eternal woe" said
Or. j. c. Ludgate. at the Tuesday
evening services at the Grace NJ T.
church. He spoke on the subject
The Man Who Made a Mistake
Continuing he said.
"In external things many men
look alike. they are honest. truth
ful. generous. honorable. respecta-
BILE. law abiding. and with no bad
habits. so that it is difficult 10 diff
ferentiate between them, and II their
standing before God depended upon
external things. one would naturally
say they are both alike good but
our standing with God does not rest
upon externals. but Intervals. as the
He that heareth these sayings Of
mine and doth them says Jesus. is
like a wise man who built his
house upon the rock. and he that
heareth these sayings of mine and
0oeth them not is like "a foolish man
that built his house upon the sand.
"The foundations of our hopes
ere the really important things if
We are trusting TO our morality,
honesty, generosity. it is like the
sandy foundation. but if we are
trusting TO Jesus TO save. pardon
Justify. and glorify AS. that is the
foundation Of rock that will not be
shaken.
Each Of these mems building
were alike tested. Rain descended
from above. floods came from be-
meath, and the winds beat on their
houses from every point of the COM
pass. with the result that one build
ing stood. and the other building
Was washed away in the torrential
avalanche.
Testing. trials. sorrows. bereave-
ments. sicknesses. losses and diff
culties come to saint and sinner
alike. none are exempt during this
life. Man is born unto trouble as
the sparks fly upward
But the difference between the
two characters is revealed i'm the
way they face their tests. Ungodly
people become bitter. resentful, and
respondent under sorrow. and many
resort 10 the suicides bullet. poison
or other method to destroy their
life. thus hoping to escape. while
others take 20 drink, drugs, and
other degrading forms of supplying
mediums, hoping thus TO gain ces-
sation from their troubles. hut the
results are quite the opposite from
what they had hoped, for the awak-
ening from the supplying sleep is
surely followed with the awful re-
action. with its thousandfold more
acute miseries'

URGES MEN TO PREPARE
FOR MEETING WITH GOD
Rev. \. W. Smith Believes Too
Much Time Taken for Worldly
Pleasures.

ut Is no common mistake TO make
great preparations for temporal life,
but none for meeting God. This is
because the needs OF the body are
more apparent than the needs Of the
soul. and the needs which are for
eternity do not seem 10 be so urgent
as those which are for this world,
but he needs of the soul are the
most important" said Rev. A. w.
smith last night at the revival
meeting held at the River Park NJ.
E church. He used as his subject,
Preparation for a Great Meeting"
at will truly be a great meeting
when we meet God. The first prep
aration for life should be the one to
meet God in eternity. To prepare to
meet God is to prepare to live. No
one is fully prepared 10 live who is
not prepared &c meet God. Then no
one is fully prepared to live who is
not prepared 10 die. The one who
lives every day so that he need not
be afraid TO meet God will live a
true Christian life.
There is danger in delaying the
preparation. Everybody ought to
know that death ends all opportun-
ity for making preparations yet the
unsaved are constantly taking this
chance"
The meeting was followed by one
conversion and il was decided to
close the revival after tOnight's ser
vices

HANG AND QUARTER.
PRES'T WILSON
E. A. DauSman OF Goshen
WaIiOpS at Administration
in Fourth Ward.

Pres't Woodrow Wilson was po-
itically hanged and quartered at
the meeting Of the fourth ward re-
publicans last night. +. A. Daus-
man of Goshen. candidate for the
appellate bench Of Indiana on the
republican ticket. and speaker at
last nights meeting. said it would
take him three or four nights In
which to point out all the mistakes
that the president had made.
IN the first place he attacked the
presidents policy in dealing with
Mexico. Prefacing this, he said that
as far as he could learn he doubted
seriously whether there was any
man in the city limits of South Bend
who could determine whether or
not Wilson had a policy Of any sort
on any question OF state.
Mr.. Dausman took occasion to
call attention TO the presidents at
titude towards preparedness. First
the president, Influenced by the
democratic administration, was
against armament. Then the ques-
ton arose." according to the candi-
dates version Of the trend of public
events, ARE we too proud TO fight?
Finally, the president wheeled
around after public sentiment had
been aroused turned squarely
around on his heel. and while the
republicans still were waging the
fight. went shouting across the
country the cry for preparedness.
The president is playing politics as
no president ever played it before. y
The remainder of the talk dealt
almost exclusively with shouts OF
protective tariff. return TO the good
old days Of party policies, when
the republicans enthrOned in pow
er should mark what is now the be-
ginning Of a glorious epoch, with
their statesmen of the highest quail
iiy and level heads, should rebuild
devastated Europe. etc" One par
ticularly striking epigram, designed
evidently to carry great weight, was
that there was no wisdom in de-
mocracy
e. Louis Kuhns, president Of the
Chamber of Commerce, talked fol-
lowing the address Of Mr.. Daus-
man, laudins first the principles for
" hich the party stood, and secondly
taking advantage of the occasion to
put in a good word for the c. of G.
Primary candidates asked for the
support of the voters. John Yer
mande. president Of the fourth ward
organization, presided.
Announcement was made that a
meeting Of the young mems Nc
K:nley club would he held Feb. %
in the ]. NJ. S. building.

HOLDS FAITH IN
GOD EVERYTHING
Rev. Edwin Castle Says Men
Prepared for God Need Not
Fear Persecution.

According TO Rev. Edwin Castle at
the Linden Avenue Christian church
Tuesday evening. if people are pre-
pared to meet God they need not
fear persecution. In this day as in
the days of Christ. Christians are be-
ing prosecuted" declared the
speaker.
Christ promised us while on
earth if we came to Him we would
be saved. that our sins would be for
given and Christ was no backslider. q"
he continued. He is the same to-
day as yesterday and will be so for
ever. Always ready to forgive if we
repent and have sincere faith in
Him. Christ always kept His prom
ises and He always Will
IF we have faith i'm God and
Jesus Christ. we have everything in
life. Faith that Christ healed the
sick gives us power to cure our own
bodily ills"
The church was crowded and
when the call came for converts.
four responded. Following the de-
votional services and preceding the
regular service, Frank Ebright. a
member of the church ard recently
a convert. addressed the gathering.
Mr.. Ebright is preparing TO enter the
ministry as is Cecil Castle and Pat
Emmons. two other converts Of this
church. Edwin Castle, the pastor of
the church, was also a convert here.

this church in the past two years to
