"Thou art weiirhcd in the bal- i'lices ami found wanting." and brtiusrht the' lesson home to the .thou sands who heard him. The service also was notable for the good singing.

HO '1 J . t -uoivct wi.i Lie can on, wnicn is regarded as nro'oablv his strongest: Ecrnicn. He will discuss the Ten Com r. atulment.s Sunday night, with se tial referenc? to the cussing crowd. ?nd on Mcnday night he will deliver a. special sermon to the colored peo ple. Rev. VV. W.- Rowe offered nraver at last night's service and at the con clusion of the singing. Mr. McLendon said. "All right, ushers, get what money the foiks've got. K very body push ntw." Contrasting Belsbav.zav. king of JSabylonia. with Daniel, the. Hebrew prophet, the evangelist bad a dra matic chapter in history to draw upon and he brought the lessons straight home. Uvith a thousand lords and knights, all drinking tind arousing, the king saw the armless baud write the words upon the wf.il 'ml the king ouuketl like an autumn leaf. The Babylonian magicians were called before -the writing and ihev said . nothing doing. Then Daniel was scut for and. promised a go'den -chain about, his neck, he interpreted the fateful words and the Modes and Per sians, who changed the. channel of the Kupb rales, poured into Babylon :jnd the king was slain that night. 1'e bad time to tlie.. The king found time for pleasure, for houses and lands, for liuuor gua rding and dancing with his wives and concubines, but not time for God. Like so many "good citizens" he bad :mi' for the pleasures of the world, "but no time for God. But thev too wid have time to die. A lot of vou folks. Mr. McLendon declared, twist, and squirm under the preaching of a little one-horse evan felist. and he asked where would thev gtand when the 'world comes to an end. when the moon drips bipod? You will be measured not bv the yardstick of your associates, but bv this book he asserted, holding Up the Bible. Those Wtw Offend. Among those who oTfrnd God the evangelist named first the backslider the liar acid perjurer who lias brok en his marriage vows with God. If vou don't think the churches arc in a sad plight, he urged the people to go with, him through several states, and be said that nraver meetings ate being he It I on Wednesday afternoon how in some places because Hie nidi won't go at night and the women can't leave home- There are iust about enough people at praver iiitet.ings to flag a hr.'iid car. Walk on down the street to the leg show or theatre and there you will find the ciowd. with old backsliders in the front row Baptists, Lutherans, Methodists, Presbyterians. Reforms ..ml all the rest. They have sidestepped God and proved' Benedict Arnolds to their church. They are absent at waver meeting, but on the lob at the thea tre. Another bunch who offend love so c'al gatherings. The world is gone pleasure-mad. and he declared that vou never saw a dancing, card-ulav- iog. . theatre-going person that was worth anything to the church. It is practical infidelity that hurts the. churches, not the theoretical kind, he s&id. !...-. Some Offenders. Mr. McLendon said vou could walk un to these people people and ask. "Brother, have you ever been born i-gain?" and you will get no for an answer. He said there was a certain Methodist church in South Carolina where the 57 stewards knew nothing about regeneration. Thev have a kind of. perfunctory moonshine religion. They tlon't .want sin preached, thev want tweedledce and tweedledum. foot liorti ami goou uevn sermons. Stagnation is the next place to damna tion. The preacher ought to be a cross between a billie goat and a mule butt at one end and kick at the other. The evangelist dec'arcn we have leaders for card-playing, whiskey guzzlinfi. but where are our leaders for God? They are neither cold nor lukewarm. You can't be neutral in v.egard to Christianity. They are conservative, but thev snueak and stiuall at baseball games and political meetings. Don't Make Progress. Revolving on his heel and making circles. Mr. McLendon showed how many church members made progress. ! Their churches were moving along. taking in new memoers. paving tne preacher, but saving no souls- The most di'amatic part of his ser mon came when Mr. McLendon im agined an instance of a man trving to pray who is mad or at outs Avith I his brother. First vou ve got to make it right with vour fellow before vou can ask Cod for anything. Then vou can pray. What this world needs is love. A lot of you folks will never know God until vou learn to shake some hands Get on vour knees and ask God to turn the X-ray of heaven on you- We want to see a revival here. N.
