SAYS HORIZONS GALL
 CHRIST POLYGAMIST
Speaker At the Methodist Church Denounces Sect
 AS Menace to Nation.

] That Jesus Christ was a polygamist according to the teachings of the Mormons, was the statement of Mrs. l.. l.. Shepard in her lecture on ''The Mormon. Menace" at the Methodist church last evening. She quoted as her authority a passage in the Nor mon Key to Theology from which she read.
 In introducing Mrs. Shepard Rev. J. l.. Davis said that he had heard her speak some time ago and being impressed had invited her to come to New Britain to make an address at his church. He stated that he could not say of her, he had once heard said of speaker on prohibition, that she full of her subject" but rather he could assert that she was full of antagonism to her subject.
 Music and prayer preceded Mrs. Shepard's talk. She stirred her hear CTS by her description of the power of the Mormon church along com mercial lines, citing instances of it's holdings in many places beyond the boundaries of Utah, which state, she asserted. was completely Mormonized.
 Never Was Mormon.
 Mrs. Shepard said that she had lived in Utah a quarter of century. She asserted that it had been said of her that she had been a Mormon. She denounced this as untrue and as being due to the fact that she had spoken often in the Mormon Temple when she was fighting for prohibition. ....-
 The speaker asserted that Mormons are taught that it is right to lie. to a Christian, if the interests of their church may be conserved thereby, but it is sin to lie to another Nor mon. She said the Mormon church had grown 20 per cent in the last year, and expected to show a greater growth this year. ssss+s-
 Mrs. Shepard asserted that one who calls himself a Latter Day Saint is Mormon and nothing else. She de- cIared that they appealed to the women because. according to their teaching, Jesus Christ came into the world to save men only; that women would lie in their graves after death until called forth by their Mormon husband. No women, not having a
