Mr.. Johnson closed his sermon
with quite a few well directed argu7
ments for prohibition. You could

with toothpicks, as you could stop

God dandelions don't bloom always.

and him as an example of mis-
sion workers i'll our own State.
Sunday Morning
"Carnal and Spiritual Beliefs, .
was the subject selected by Mr.. John
son for his sermon, Sunday morning
with his text from l Corinthians, LIST
to 9Th verses. Discussing the adj
visibility of all the churches uniting
lust at this time. Mr.. Johnson gave
the following arguments: when a
church member can only listen to
his own minister then he needs some
thing that is like another touch OF
God in his heart" Il am of Paul
am of Appollos" may be paraphras-
ed to meet the question of today; we
saw, Il am a Methodist, or | am
Baptist. or l am anything but inter
dominational." Carnal christians
are dominated by the carnal nature;
spiritual christians are dominted by
the spiritual nature. That's all the
difference, but it means everything.
Mr.. Johnson dwelt at length on
the subject of fallen girls, and way
ward boys Again bringing his
Bible knowledge into play, he said
IF any among you should stumble,
let him which is spiritual restore
such a one in the spirit of meekness,
lest he also should fall" I'VE don't
say it that way now; we reverse it to
suit our actions, ''If any among you
shall fall kick him down.
The world wants practical christ
ianity; christianity that works. Coo
is no Tespecter of persons. Colo
means nothing to him. Why, the
streets of Heaven are paved with
Gold"
Mr.. Johnson stresses frequently in
his sermons, the danger awaiting the
young people of today, and exhorts
mothers and fathers to never cease
watching and praying that their
children may be safely brought
through these perilous times.
Sunday Afternoon
Women packed st. Pauls Church
to the doors on Sunday afternoon, to
hear the wonderfully inspiring talk
by Mrs. Bob" Joshson. She is one
of those sweet, motherly women. who
can certainly win other women to
Jesus Christ if anyone can. Mrs.
Johnson spoke on the Importance OF
women to the campaign, now on. 1t
has been said that Great things are
done when women praE-, and we be-
lieve that was proved, Sunday in 81.
Paul's church. WomC2 did pray,
and prayed earnestly fol the saliva
ton of souls. Women have played
their given part since the beginning
of time, and played it well. Mrs.
Johnson thinks the women Of Cam
bridge will be no exceptions, when 1t
comes to praying for lost souls and
the bringing down a revival. Mary
Magdalene, the woman out of whom
Jesus cast seven devils was the first
person to whom Jesus appeared af-
ter the resurrection" said Mrs. John
son. Women were the last to leave
h1 GYSf Of tho vacant
tomb. Oh the loyalty of them; OF
course, we find 'doubters' and when
we do, it's up to us to. convince them
Of their error. We are saved to
serve" Mrs. Johnson closed her
talk with an earnest plea to the
women to give their homes for pray
er meetings.
Sunday Night
Evangelist Johnson again fired on
the forces of evil, Sunday night, with
thrilling sermon on working to-
gether with Cod" His remarks
were mighty timely. TOO many
men today, keep their property and
religion in their wives names. It's
not the right thing to do in either
case. You might be a silent part
ner" in he firm of John Smith and
Company, but you can't be a silent
partner with God. Give me twenty
five men of Cambridge, who would
rather die than disobey a commander
God, and l will show the devil the
hottest chase he ever had. During
these days you will have the oppor-
tunitv of confessing your Lord, OF
YOU will have the opportunity of de-
nying him." Mr.. Johnson's expert
ence is wide spread and valuable, as
well as interesting in every detail
Speaking of white slavery, that horrl-
BILE menace to lives of young girls
Mr.. Johnson sounded another warn
ing. Did you know that 65'oo0
girls have disappeared in the United
States within the last five years
Lost to mothers, fathers and loved
ones. Dragged down by white slaV-
ery. We are too slow waking up to
the fact that the devil is always Oh
