The evangelist spoke last night on
"The Exhalted Christ." He went forth
tr. chr.'.v that? Christ was exalted
through suffering and that we must
suffer many times before we 'become
useful in His service. The message
was greatly enjoyed by those pres

sensational type .of -evangelists but
nrp.irh.is the Gdsnel in a plain, sane
way which appeals to the best that
is in a person.
Perhaps the most helpful services
to the Christians is the morning. At
this service the blackboard is used
and is the 'one more in the form of a
(Bible conference. There has been a
steady increase in the attendance at
each of 'these lectures and much help
is being gotten from them.
The music, under the leadership of
Mr. W. 'P. Martin, is very attractive
and a special program is arranged for
each service. The work of the senior
choir ;is good and there were about
150 bojjs and girls to add their voices
last night in helping Mr. Martin sing,
"In the Garden." The duet, "The Old
T?ncryfd Cross." bv Mrs. Essex and

Mr. Martin was well received last
night. .
Services begin each night at eight

highly pleased that the members of
other denominations are attending in
tuch great numbers. All are cordially
invited to attend meetings.

Conan Doyle is siencer but rais
i.ermon at Maywood, 111., recently
;.nd a Chicago paper carried the fol
lowing account of the sermon:
Conan Doyle is sencere but mis
taken. Thus said Grady C Miller,
of the Lutheran seminary at May
wood, 111., in a sermon at Holy
Trinity Evangelical Lutheran
church Sunday, on the subject
"Life Beyond the (have," in dis
cussing Doyle's preachments on
spiritualism.
Speaking generally ot spiritual
ism, he declared it to be no new
thing, referring to the Witch cf
Endor who lived 1,000 years lie
fore Christ, but stated that, in his
belief, it was an instrument of Sa
tan. Referring particularly to Doyies
statements, especially as regafch'
Heaven and heil, he declared them
to be in direct opposition to thr
Bible. "If Doyle is right," he said,
"the Bible is wrong. It is a question
c'f accepting Doyle or the Bible."
The speaker made it clear, howevtr,

Doyle Popular
Rev. Miller stated that he had
taken this subject for discussion be
cause of the fact that the people of
the Middle West seemed to he par
ticularly interested, in spiritualism
at this time, which he thought due
in part to Ddyle's lectures in Chica
go and other cities.
The speaker expressed surprise
that a writer of detective stories,
who makes no pretense of being a
theologian, would cause such an im
pression with his thoughts on spir
itualism. It is being demonstrated,
he stated that his doctrines are poi
sc'ning the minds cf many, making
it vital that the Christian pulpit
give attention to some of the things
with which he is "dealing in his fic
titious wav."
Referring to Doyle, he said
"Doyle's so-called religion is a direct
contradiction to the Holy Scriptures.
He asserts that all men will ulti
mately be saved and that there is nr

his remarks to that part of his
