Little Lootins Reported.


A feature that appealed to many
who visited the storm area today was
that. altho thousands of dollars worth
of merchandise were strewn about the
business district, few or no attempts at
looting were to be seen. Only two or
three arrests on looting charges have
been made, according to officials.
As soon Is the waters began reced-
ing storekeepers appeared and started
clearing away wreckage from their
places. Most of them reported, how
ever, that little of their merchandise
could be salvaged.
Volunteers this morning began the
work of clearing the streets of wreck
age. The removal of debris will take
some time, as houseboats, fishing craft
and f1otsam of every description are
piled high in all of the main thoro-
fares. Especially is this true in the
North Beach section. the city's bath
ing and pleasure district. There only
the United States marine hospital and
one large residence are standing.
wreckage is piled high around the
Spohn sanitarium. near the North
Beach district, where more than 25O
refugees were rescued yesterday by
boats Many residents OF the North
Beach district were included in the
number having fled there from their
homes to escape the rising waters.

but wouldn't take it,
The world is full OF failures, not
from lack of opportunities but be-
cause people have drifted on with
out an incentive or aim. The
mountains are sure to turn you
back Unless you set out with a de-
termination to reach the sunny
country that lies on the other side.
Without this, your blood will turn
to water when you hear the lions
roar.
One reason why there are SO
many bones bleaching along the
highway of the immoral life is be-
cause the men and women who
once set out with bright, sunshiny
faces expected to go nowhere in
particular. When Christian turned
his back on the city of destruction,
oh. he intended to go straight
through to the celestial city, but
old Rliable got cold feet and turned
back when he struck the first mud
hole.
The rich jewels Of manhood and
womanhood are for the man or
woman who is determined to kill
all the lions, swim all the streams,
tunnel all the mountains, climb all
the hills, uproot all the trees that
impede your progress and keep you
from the goal for a touchdown,
who says, This one thing 1 do, ~
and stands pat.
He goes straight on like Colum-
bus when he set out 70 discover a
new world. David wanted Solomon
to reach the mountain top, not to
be content with a summer bunga
low in the valley. He didn't want
him to be an old woman and SORT
of a sissif1ed proposition, he
wanted him to be a man with knot
ted muscles and with a great big
heart and plenty of gray matter IN
his brain. He wanted him TO aim
high, when his endeavorS~ would
not be low.
BE q mani" Don't simply be a
frame to hang a suit of clothes on
as is the case with a lot of walk
ing machines that pass for men and
ought to be arrested for going
around disguised as men. To know
some men and some women is an
invitation to do right and be de.
cent. To know others is an inVi-
tation to go to hell and be a degen-
crate. To know some people is an
invitation to be decent and to live
right for God and His truth. You
know there are lots of things now
adays, oh, they cuss and hit the
booze and lead girls astray. They
wouldn't be called men IL they
didn't have whfskers and breaches
on and walk upright instead OF
crawling like a quadruped NAM

should be taught that no single act
of munif1cence can blot out the rec
ord OF an ignoble life. Nobody can
live the life of a financial pirate or
OF moral blackleg without paying
the price. The princely manhood
OF David's can't be bought with
money, II is the grandest thing that
ever made its way into this old
world.
Your manhood depends upon the
size OF your soul and not that of
your body. There are men who are
small in stature, but they are noble
in manhood, men like Paul, men
like julius Caesar, a little, sawed

couldn't see him for dust.
Oh, l see. And If you are net
willing to deliberately run the risk
of being a good-for-nothing and
winding up in hell, then, my
friends, decide that you will not
yield to sin when temptation beats
against you. If you are not will
ing to become a social outcast, de-
eide like Joseph before you reach
POtiphar's house, what you will do
when you are up against it. Don't
wait until that minute and then de-
eide. If you do you are a dead one
as sure as you breathe. You've
got to make your decision before
hand and not decided it at that
time,
Be man. The Democratic
party hasn't a right to run the gov
eminent for Democrats nor the Re-
publicans for the Republicans.
This country belongs to everybody.
1t belongs to all of US, it don't be-
long to any party nor any creed or
gang or any dirty bunch bowling

some place.
Be strong Be strong! Every
drop of blood in my body beats to
the tune of 1.-THE Star Spangled

you, take your hat off. The weather
changes. When David walks into
your presence, the birds come
back, build their nests, sing. Grass
turns green, leaves burst out, flow

deep in succulent grass, all nature
claps her hands.

the bible full Of faIsehoods, in two
or three years from now they will
be proved to be old liars. But the
bible will stand triumphant over
all they say or do. 1 have never
/ gotten so damnable low down and
vile as to have the audacity to put
my infnitesimal, pigmy intellect uI
to the defiance of the Omnipotent
and tell him the spirit of damna-
ton didn't meet with my stipend
Gus gigantic conception.
UnbeIieTer Is Damned.
"The man who steals doesn't be-
lieve in policemen or prison. Bad
people disbeIieve in hell, so you
can't settle spiritual truth on any
scientific theory at all. Whether
or not there is a hell is a question
which the church by virtue Of its
existence can answer in but one
way He that belieVeth shall be
saved and he that believeth not
shall be damned Never mind how
he will be damned, the bible says
he will be damned"
He illustrated with many Incl
dents where men have been turned
from ways of wickedness into paths
of Righteousness through personal
work at the right time and said,
"Oh 1t is a great salvation to stoop
down in the quagmires Of filth, take
a man out and put new song in
his mouth, send him up and down
the land to fill the last days Of
those who love him with sunshine
and glory. 1t is q great salvation
for it saves us from a great sin. v
when God pardons, God justi-
fies and makes it as though you
never did sin, therefore you are
free through faith in Jesus Christ,
the Son of God. By faith IN Him
we are saved. Death will make no
change in character. There isn't
a man or woman in hell who
wouldn't warn you to keep out of
1t If they could only come up here
to talk to you.
Would DepOpulate He'll.
"If God Almighty would let me
go down to hell and preach one
sermon and give the Invitation 1
could depopulate hell IN IS min
Utes. While they that are in there
want to get out, you poor fools are
breaking your necks to get in.
That's what I can't understand.
NO matter how small your sin
is unless you repent and ask for
giveness you cant get in heaven
and no matter how great your sin
is and you ask forgiveness and re-
pent for it. you can't go to hell"
he concluded.
The opening prayer was offered
by Rev. c. r. Neal of the Christian
church, Davenport, and the bene-
diction was pronounced by Rev. =.
NJ. Bruner of Rock Island, whoR
Mr.. Sunday said he had known for
25 years and could vouch that he
is all gold.
Mr. Sunday yesterday evening
again referred to- the fact that the
quad-cities had established a prec-
edent in cleaning up the taber-
nacIe debt before the close of the
campaign. He said also that the
quad cities had established other
precedents and that they would Ger
tainIy be a fine community and al
ideal place to live if only a couple
of undesirable people would either
die or move away or get converted.

MORNING SESSION.

ct is the little things that cause
the trouble and keep the Holy
Spirit away" said Billy Sunday
yesterday morning, in speaking es-
peciaIly to the church people on
the subject of the Holy Spirit 1T
may be a very little thing, but ii
keeps the> power of Jesus away.
Here may be your trouble. Maybe
you have too little communion with
Him through His word. The ig-
norance of Gods word among the
people today is lamentable. We
are ignorant of Gods word that
VIII bring us salvation. Here.
Gods got salvation for every sin
ner, if you have faith enough to
walk down and take it, Or the
trouble may be you haven't con-
fessed your sins. Or you haven 7

ject was taken from John 14:15:

Father. and He will give you an

believe that there are constant
blessings that every person may
have. 1 don't believe you reach a
stage spiritually beyond which you
cannot go. You never reach a ply
steal condition that you can't reach
higher heights of power. So, re-
peat, there are constant blessings
which the individual may have If
he will do what God wants him to
do. I don't know OF one blessing
that God will give to preachers
that He will deny the peTs. What
ever is wrong for me is wrong for
you. Whatever is right for me is
right for you. God has said, If
you love me, then keep My COM
mandments. and I'll know that you
love Me. Why IS 1t that the church
Of God has not the power 1t had at
Pentecost? You lose your power
when you COMPROMISE.
Spnlb IS mere
There is no evidence that the
Spirit ever left the world after It
came in at Pentecost, and so 1t IS
here today for you to accent or re-
ject. You are the one to decide
whether you go to heaven or TO
hell. If you are too intellectual to
go 20 heaven, then to perdition
with your culture. ( It Is your stub
born will that keeps you from &C
cepting. The reason you are not

willed not to be.

the church today is the Holy Spirit.

lot OF tricks of which We are
ashamed. We grieye the Spirit of
God and We have got to resort to
these things IN order to get money

there isn't church IN this country
today that hasn't members enough

you Mascns do it and you Odd Eel

the church Of God should have
been doing.
so they are wrong IN their gov
eminent. I don't mean the system
Of government. I mean that we
are wrong when we put a lot of
Goddess fellows IN official position.
I have gone to towns and found
that half the trustees were not
even members of the church. l
wouldn't trust them that far until
they were converted. Thus we let
the Spirit go. When we stoop to
do questionable things, power is
lost. Why haven't we received the
power? It's because you have dis
obeyed Him. Your blessing deveI-
