eve are facing the powers of hell
as never before in the history of the
world" declared the preacher in be-
ginning his sermon. "People have
reached the stage where they think
they can do as they please, attend
church, contribute to missions and go
to heaven; live right on Sunday and
sin during the week. All your good
thoughts, good deeds and traits will
not get you to heaven. The only way
to keep out of hell is through the spill
ed blood of Jesus Christ.
The preacher condemned many of
the new religions Of today and quoted
Scripture which condemns the doc
trines Of the Christian scientists. He
declared that many of the new doc
trines are leading men away from
the Kingdom rather than to Christ.
A Strenuous Age.
He declared that immigration is one
of the greatest curses to America. This
country has been the dumping ground

preacher declared that he had neither

Jesus since he was converted II years
ago. Some Christians have nipped
all the grass in their pasture. These
should move on into greater pastures.

One Great Need of the Church
zone great need of the church to-
day is that preachers get converted"
declared Evangelist McLendOn in his
discourse Monday evening. His theme
was "Ahaz and Hezekiah" He told
of the wicked reign of Ahaz and how
for 16 years the temples were closed
and the people forgot God and wor-
shipped idols. His son Hezekiah was
good man who had q good ma. When
he ascended the throne, succeeding
his wicked father, the first thing he
did was to clean out and open the
house of God. The preacher paid
tribute to Woodrow Wilson and thank
ed God that this country has God
loving ruler.
Curses Brought On By Sin.
The Bible teaches that whenever
nation forgets God that nation is
cursed by God. Germany, France, Bel
gium and England had forgotten God
and the sword is one of the things
used by God to punish nations that
forget him. The preacher declared

has spread over the world is another

Grounding Church Members.

"Backsliding," was the subject of
Evangelist McLendon's message Sat-
urday evening. His Scripture lesson
was from the second chapter of Jere-
miah.
The preacher compared many church
members to groundhogs. When the
revival is on and everything is
bright and shining they come out for
Christ and as soon as the revival clos
es they go back into their holes-back
into the ways of the world.
Men regard backsliding as a slight
offense, but it is serious offense IN
the sight of God. 1t is sad thing for
those who see their relatives leave
shore sailing under bright sky and
then to hear that storm has overtak-
en- the ship and destroyed it. 1t is
a much sadder thing for men to go

On The Ten Commandments.
In spite of the downpour of rain, a

A Mans God the Thing He Loves Most
eff you are not keeping the COM
mandments you should be in the pen

says you shall have no other God be-
fore me. Mans God is the thing he
loves most. If man worships money,
then money is his God. The world is
commercially mad. Men are lovers
of money and they are going to hell
in car lots. They will do anything
and go to hell for money.
Commenting on the way ladies
dress, the preacher declared that if he
were some women and had to wear
breeches he would get some with two
legs. Folks do what society says.
They worship the God of society.
There are people living in Lumber

need any funeral or flowers. Some

HILL PUZZLE TO BIOLOGISTS
Stone Columns on Eminence Near Pa
ehuea, In Mexico, Out Of Keeping
With Other Formations.

A very remarkable geological freak
in Mexico Is a mountain situated near
Pachuca which presents the appear
ance at distance Of being covered
with spikes. The sides of the noun
tain are closely studded with stone col
umns or palisades. These columns are
five to twelve feet long and as large
round as an average mans body. 1t
Is remarkable uplift Of nature which
has the appearance, however, Of being
the handiwork of human beings. One
side of the mountain Is almost perpen-
dicular and the stone columns pro-
trude from the surface at right angles,
forming an impressive picture.
Pachuca Is one of the most noted
mining districts in Mexico, and 1t is
said by biologists that this remarka-
BILE spiked mountain is out Of keeping
with the remainder Of the formation
of the mineralized region. The stone
Is as hard as flint and has withstood
the elements of ages. The spikes form
n natural battlement that makes the
mountain appear from distance like
an ancient fort. The mines Of the
Pachuca district are situated not far
from this wonderful freak of nature,
but the formation encountered in their
respective underground workings is of
an entirely different kind from that of
the palisade.
