Charles Reign Seovifie Urges on His
Hearers This Necessity. at
the Tabernacle Last
Evening
HAS RAP FOR SCHOOLS
crtticises Those Which Try to TX
ciude the Sibie-Atso Hits Homes
Where Liquor 10
Served.

The subject OF Evangelist Charles
Reign ScovtIle's sermon was What
Have They Seen in Thy House,
The emphatic thought OF the sermon
was the idea OF the necessity for
keeping ones house in order, because
death may come at sny time. when
We least expect It Dr.. Scoville en-
phasized this idea By numerous effec-
tive Illustrations He told OF receiv-
ing the word OF his fathers death in
the middle OF one Of his sermons. as
an Illustration Of the Euddenness. of
the coming Of death. II you know
can generally tell their kind of church
life. he said
He severely condemned the schools,
colleges. and universities which are
trying TO keep the Bible from being
used and spiritual things from being
discussed Are We examining our
heads and leaving our hearts empty?'
was one Of his questions. Clean
house spiritually and do something
worth while and you VIII have some
publicity"
That was the reason given by the
speaker for the greater notice the
press OF today is giving 10 religious
matters.
Religion Brings Strength.
He pressed the point that the re-
ngious strength of q community is
dependent upon the kind of religion
there Is In the home. and deplored
the lack Of real religion In the home
today and particularly the lack of
family prayer, the failure to keep the
family at home together and the lack
OF Bible reading and study In the
home. All the christian institutions,
the churches, 7. N. c. A, and Y. W.
c. A. are doing all they can. but the
homes Of this community must do
their part The child who has q chris
tan father and mother Is a success
because Of parents, but the child who
has not christian parents is a sue
cess In spite of his parents The
speaker went heavily after the homes
where liquor ia served and conditions
of like sort exist. The child brought
up between the ages Of twelve and
eighteen In proper christian home en-
vironment will prove a rock of chris
tan influence in the world. The big
christian business men OF today came
largely from homes where God and
the Bible and prayer were honored
and the real statesmen Of this coun-
try have been christian men from
christian homes
The Invitation.
Following the sermon the usual IN
vitatton TO hit the trail was given.
Particular stress was laid on the
thought OF being ready for the com
ing Of the angel Of death, for death
may come at any time. Among the
number who hit the traii'' were
quite few Of the high school
pupils, who we're heartily cheered by
their schoolmates on their journey to
glory row" The two extremes were
again evident among the trail hit
ters." In contrast to the high school
students there were quite a number
Of old people in glory row"
