disgraceful the class of pictures
which are Haunted before decent
people today
The tolerance of evil which
church people have today is the
thing which is allowing these evils
10 grow and prosper IN this cOun-
try in the old days things were
black and white Now they are a
dull gray.
Another symptoms. is the growing
spirit OF lawlessness. You need no
better proof than the Boston police

Root of INil.
And all Of this has its root i'm
the fact that men are holding them
selves independent OF God. The

today.
Germany deficd man. humanized
God and minimized sin and Ger
many set the world on FIRE. The
same thing is going TO happen in
America, France and England if
this spirit is allowed TO abide.
Capital has been selfish and labor
is getting selfish and il has all come
from this same spirit. The man who

of ancient Athens who danced
naked all night long, but ! am here
to tell YOU that there are church
