 Life-Young People Tonight.

H. l.. Storrs, choir leader and di- rector for the Stephens tabernacle party, was at his best in the song service last night, the fifth night of the revival at the tabernacle in Main street. The choir sang a special number, entitled "Wounded For Our Transgressions."
 pr. J. l. Norris, pastor of the First Presbyterian church, offered the prayer Mr. James, the cornetist, played a cornet solo, "Tell Mother I'll be T-45re.' Then came one of the greatest features of the evening when the chorus of q Shall Be Sat isfied" was sung by the pastors.
 Mrs. Powell sang II Am On a Shin ing Pathway" The beautiful words Of this song were arranged to the music of Annie Laurie.
 The subject of MT. Stephens scr mon was, What Have I Done" talk ing the text from Jer.vii:6.
 The speaker said in part:
 "Every book in the Bible has it's key'tote They forgot Me- is the keynote in Jeremiah. The most mis- erable man in the world is the man who once knew God, but has forgot ten Him. His heart is burdened, and ne makes other hearts ache.
 There are people here tonight whose hearts ache because they once knew God and have left Him. One of the greatest examples in the Bible of those who forgot God is to be found in the history of the Israelito5 who were given the promised land, bTt forgot God They forgot Him, even though He warned them by say Ing. Beware, lest thou forget God
 "I want to ask some questions to- night, namely:
 What have you done with God?
 "What have you done with Jesus Christ?
 What have you done with your influence?
 What have you done ~itn your opportunities?
 "What have you done with the cry of your own need?
 We forget God in our homes. No prayer. No thanksgiving at the table No kind of religious act in the nome. God has often answered your prayer in your distress, but you have forgot ten Him.
 "There is no suffering like being forgotten. God is not . block of steel; He feels it when we forget Him. He knows sorrow and lie knows pain. The husband often forgets his wife; the wife often forgets her hus- band and children, and they roth for get God. You need God and God needs you. but perhaps yol are for getting Him.
 Personally, what have you done with Him?
 What have you done with Jesus?
 What have you done with the | Bible? It is the only book that can comfort. If you do not read the Bi- ole you are forgetting God. What are you going to d, with your op- now? Will you leave it | md forget God?
 What are you going 70 do when 3od speaks to you? If you fold vcur arms and drift, vou will forget God md if you forget iiod, you will be ost.
 Let this message sink deeply in- o your heart: What have done 9 md decide in your heart you will do omcthing worth while."
