Churches Are Offering Their Plants

The churches OF the city are offer.

Sundays are to be devoted to 90
to church campaign. Announcements
of the campaign have already oeen
made, All of the churches are In.
vited to join and 1t is hoped to show
good results. {
In speaking OF the coming cam
paign or go to church movement
Rev. F. c. Edwards of the Trinity M.
e. church said:
Desiring to cooperate with the
| Industrial association and all others
(, who are working for a greater keo-
| kuk, the churches Of the city wish TO
offer their equipment, organizations,
and benefits to be utilized to their
| fullest capacity by all the people OF
the city They want to continue TO 40
as they have ever done. They want to
build up and perpetuate a moral and
spiritual base upon which Industrial
ism may successfully operate. They
want to create and maintain moral
atmosphere In which immortality. vics
and crime cannot endure. Those who
have made q comparative study OF
the situation have found that the
church is the greatest police force in
the community. In frontier towns
where the church has not gained a
strong footing, crime is very COM
mon and usually goes unpublished.
On the other hand, where the
churches are recognized and appreciat-
ed by the people, crime is feduced
to a minimum. Other things being
equal, land and property values In
crease with the increase OF the re-
finements and civilization the church
creates.
People would rather rear their
children In the midst of good In
fluences than in the midst OF bad in
fluences. Therefore when they be-
gin to look for new home. they en-
Quire about the morals of the place.
When real estate men secure pros
pectiye buyer, they always name the
churches as being among the greatest
assets OF the place they represent.
Manufactures and people looking for
new homes and new locations pass up
the place Of questionable influence
and move on to the one having a
high moral and property value. Right
here is where the churches want to
do their full share. AS a sign OF
their intention they are planning tc
make February go to church month
in Keokuk. They are putting on
city wide campaign to boost for the
churches, believing that the churches
will boost the city. Everybody is
solicited to attend the church Of his
choice and help to make the campaign
great success which will put Keo-
kuk on the map in new way.

USES BIBLE
IN HIS TALKS
Evangelist Huff 10 Different From
Most Evanoelistic Preachers
in His Methods.

The type of preaching at Trinity
church is different from the ordinary
evangelistic preaching. Evangelist
Huff may be classed as an exposition.
He quotes largely from the scripture
and makes Bible truths stand out
clearly. Last night he preached on
the Holy Spirit. Three texts were
used to show that the spirit was
prophesied by an old testament
prophet, and that He came at pente-
cost. and that christians were COM
manded to be filed with the spirit.
Attention was called to the various
activities of the spirit in all ages.
He was present at creation. He pos.
sessed Joseph in Egypt. He for
the holy spirit is personality pos
sessed Moses for his task in leading
the children of Israel out of Egypt.
He possessed Joshua to help him in his
conquest of the holy land. He pos
sessed Gideon for his task. John the
! baptist who baptized unto repent
ance, said Jesus would baptiZe with
the Holy Ghost and with fire. Jesus
told the disciples to wait for the
promise which was the coming of
| the spirit The disciples obeyed and
after waiting forty days in prayer,
He came vfsibly and powerfully upon
them in the upper room in Jerusa-
! lem. From that day the character
of new testament preaching changed
Great crowds not only were convert
ed but they were baptized with the
spirit. And just as it is a command
to repent and be converted, it is
also command to be baptized with
the Holy Spirit
! Tonight is young peoples night
/ and all young people are invited
Rev. Huff will have message spe
/ cially for them, and they will be
seated in section reserved for
/ them. The song service will begin
at 1880.
