All HypocHtes
Not Listed as
Church Members

Conversion is not an outward
demonstration. but merely a cessa-
ton Of evil doing and carrying out
Of the commands OF God" declared
Edwin w Castle pastor OF the Lin
den Avenue Christian church. last
evening. The preacher. though he
announced as a special topic for the
closing services of the revival on
next Sunday evening the cOnsidera-
tion OF baptism. did not restrict him
self 10 any particular theme in his
sermon last night.
IF every man, woman and child
in the United States who processes
Christianity would never purchase
alcohol the cause for prohibition
would be won" continued the speak
or ina a cutting announcement of the
hypOcrites who maintain that they
are Christians but whose lives do
not bear out their prOfessed beliefs.
If 40 per cent Of Christians are
practicing some little hypOcricies.
there are 100 per cent Of all those
outside of the church who are really
hypOcrites. For whenever man
who is claiming 10 follow the devil
does "a good act he is a hypocrite,"
maintained Mr.. Castle in showing
that the life Of the Christian Is worth
while and that the positions Of the
n-belever and Of the agnOstic are
really Untenable

ing the palsied man TO Jesus that

subject used last night by Evangelist
Joseph &. Ludgate at the Grace Nj.
r. church. The services were di-
rected at the members of the wom-
ems church societies which attend
ed ia a body
The application made by the
speaker from the story was that Just
as these four men brought hfth
To Jesus to be healed. SO should
they who were members of the
church and active i'm It's welfare
bring others into the fold.
In speaking Of the healing of the
paIsied man. Rev. Ludgate said that
an heaHug. whether made hy ply

I'm the spiritual. was divine healing.
Mental suggestion was what he
termed the belief of a modern
church sect which believed eNclu-
sively I'm divine healing.
Let each one of YOU go out and
visit friend. said Or Ludgate.
Bring this friend into the church.

The speaker dwe.t considerably on

Not only the church but also So

brothers keeper in the affirmative,
said Rev. Tones. "and accordingly
we as individuals should answer the
question i'm the same manner"
That the work of the church and
of society is but the work of each

HUMBLE MEN ARE
FEW THESE DAYS

A man may give his all TO char
ity. and if he has not divine love and
faith i'm his heart it will profit him
nothing" declared Pastor Walter G.
Morris i'm his sermon at the Wes-
leyan NJ. T.. church last night. His
text was taken from Luke 1S:26-27.
WHO then can be saved? And He
said the things that are impossib BILE
with man are possible with God"
The question of salvation is one
which puzzles many minds" said Mr..
Morris. The young man of whom
we have just read who came TO Jesus
and inquired OF him who would be
saved had many good things TO his
credit First, he was of an humble
nature. rare thing among the peo-
pie of tho present day Even min
listers Of God are not always as
humble as they should be, and look
down on people whom they believe
TO be beneath them. The man who
makes his peace with Jesus will have
a constant friend who Will never
look down upon him. and Will haze
a better chance for saving his soIl
than these same ministers.
The young ruler who came to
Christ was also an earnest seeker.
He ran in haste To his Saviour. be
cause ne was very SOLICITORS con-
corning the welfare OF his soul How
many of the present generation are
half SO solicitous2 1t must be that
ministers OF today are prone to teach
the JOYS of the saved rather than
the certainty of hell and the punish
ments which await the unsaved.
Many present day people seem TO
Join church merely because il is
fashionable. not because Of any great
wish to be saved. To be truly saved
they must have a greater motive than
that. When they enter church in this
fashion they are just joining an or
ganization. not the real church Of
Christ. If some people were as
earnest as this young ruler 1 would
believe that they were actually saved.
and still the Bible says that he went
away sorrowful. failing TO gain
salvation.
Martin Luther tasted. prayed and
did good works and still could not
ind God. Finally. the words The
just shall life by faith, brought him
To the realization that this alone
could save him. If YOU VIII all ac-
quire real faith in Jesus Christ YOU
will be able TO answer this puzzling
question Who then shall be saved o.

CHRIST 8 AID IS
NEEDED BY ALL

The text taken by the Rev. Julius
r. orion at the Hope Presbyterian
church last night was found in Luke
11:18 and Hebrew 7:25. It was con-
corning the saving of the soul Of
man and woman.
We may try as much as is pos
sible TO save our own soul but we
must see the light Of Jesus before
we can do So" said Rev. orion.
Jesus. Himself was the one who
showed us the trials and tribulations
that a person can go through to be
saved. Think of the hardships that
Jesus went through. The first so
years OF His life was spent in learn
ing-leerning how to be human
being He did this for one reason
and that was So that He might have
sympathy for ali of us. He died on
the cross as a sacrifice for US"
You can face the good resolu-
tiOns," continued the Rev. orion,
yet they may only be broken. You
Will all be tempted by sin and try TO
trample it under your feet. Ii is a
human struggle. and. resolve and
try as you will. YOU cannot lift
yourself up without the light of
Jesus"

vival services at the Hope Presby-

enter into the everyday life OF all.
The dollar was declared by Rev.
Bell To be the greatest menace OF

threatening the nation. according 20
him. Is the 'ust after gold and the
evils that come from this ungodly
passion. The existence Of the liquor
traffic was attributed TO the govern
ment's anxiety TO get revenue by this
means. The white slave traffic is an
other Of the curses that come from
inOrdinate love for gold. In scoring
the tobacco-using habit Rev. Bell
declared that while it was not as
bad as the drink habit. it was an evil
because IL was an unnecessary. fool
ish and dirty habit and one that was
detrimental TO physical mental and
even moral welfare The cigarette
habit was especially hard hit
IF the men spend more money on
drink and tobacco than they do for
the church of Christ. SO. too. do the
women spend more upon fashions.
declared the speaker i'm opening his
attack upon ungodly fashions. Moth
ing in the world brings more shame
and sorrow into women's homes than

styles Of dress are every day becom-
ing more goddess and indecent" he

The subject for the sermon vas
taken from the tenth chapter If
Luke beginning with the seventeenth
verse. Il was the story Of the rich
young ruler who came TO- 'hrist and
asked Him huw 10 attain heaven.
The young man said he had kept the

Ripe Ones First.

Industrial literature will be long
indebted to Mr.. Robert B. Porter,
secretary of the Trust and Deposit
Company of Onondaga, n. Y, for
what the social scientist would call
an intensive survey" of the effect
of war trade upon the activities and
fortunes lone could wish also the
manners) of a typical American
manufacturing city. The article ap-
peared in "Moody's Magazine" The
place surveyed is Syracuse. Every
romantic narrative should begin
with a few simple statistics. This
one does. The increase in payrolls
has been 80 per cent. The increase
in the number of men employed has
been 40 per cent. The relation is
important. not to say Illuminating.
"The conflict abroad" says the
writer, affected several Syracuse
concerns by cutting off their Gus
tomary sources of raw material"
The shoe industry, for instance, was
badly hit, because 70 per cent of the
calfskin used in this country for
making shoes had been under normal
conditions supplied by Germany,
France, Russia and the Balkan
States. This was very important
matter, because half of all American
shoes are built in part Of calfskins.
Moreover, the shoe industry had
been wholly dependent upon Ger
many for the dyes used in coloring
leather. That was not the worst
The supply of sole leather from Ar
gentina was interfered with at first,
owing to the paralysis of credit and
trade. That is the end Of that. How
it was solved is left TO be inferred
You do not hear of it again until
you come to that part of the nara
tive which tells of what Syracuse
is doing with new trade opportuni-
ties in the outside world. The A. +.
Nettleton Company is found sending
to South America to
