EVANGELIST OFFERSTO
GETB0OzEAT WHITING
Said He Gould Get Glass
full for Each Member
Present at Meeting.

" HITTING. Ind. Oct 51.-Evange-
list Snyder last night attacked some
OF the causes that were deraoral,z
Ing the church and our country. He
said, Our country is doomed 70 die
unless II sincerely recognizes God
Recognition cf Christ is the only
hope Of our country In fact, no
man can be Tatriofic unless they
recognize Christ" He quoted from
outstanding men of cur country on
the subject OF the morals Of our
country. anybody who will take
time to investigate or give the ques-
tion thought cannot help but feel
that the trend of the times is away
from the Bible. the very basis OF
our civilization" he said
Snyder's outstanding appeal was
against the modern dance and home
card playing. He spared no words
In denouncing the dance, saying.
The modern dance is the country 9
and the churchs greatest enemy. 1t
saps the life out OF the young peo-
pie and robs them OF the Bible. the
one foundation upon which our
country and church is founded. The
Bible must DC placed in our public
schools and let 1t stand on its own
merits The Bible and dancinc
cannot be nitched together and IN
placing the Bible in the school much
of this evil will be done away with.
Playing cards and gambling In
the homes is causing people to lose
respect for the church and to be less
patriotic. The remedy for the loos
morals Of the home is to replace the
cards with the Bible
Snyder also touched upon the
booze question. He gave this state
ment as a challenge to his audience:
That he could go out within ra-
dius OF block or so and get enough
booze to give each member present
a large glass full. The challenge
still holds 1ood If any care TO take
him ur.
There was an overflow meeting
last night 70 hear Rev. Snyder some
OF the people had to be seated In the
Sunday School rooms. Meetings Will
continue every night but Monday
! night.
