Speaking lo Greatest Week Night Crowd That Has Yet
Heard Hii^ Evangelist Move? Hearers to
Tears in Plea for Christian Homes
People who have accepted, peo
ple who have rejected, and people '
who have been only confused by
Evangelist M. F. Hum's theology
all alike listened in rapt attention
"The Christian Home," and few1
indeed of the great audience of
probably more than 4.000 who.
heard the sermon were there
whoa*- eyes were not wet before
the close of the message.
It was the largest week night i
crowd that has yet heard the
evangelist. Never except at the j
two 8unday nights' sen-ices at
which he has spoken and the af |
teinoon service of ..last J?unda> :
have more people flocked to the
Ham-Ramsay tabernacle than
JJfH-e present last night. I'asquo-1
Mpnk Tribe No. 8, Improved Order,
' or Red Men 250 jtrong attended
the service in a body and, occupy-1
ing reaerved seats near the ccnter
of the auditorium, helped to swell
the total attendance.
Over to the speaker's left also
- _y ? delegation of the chil
dren of iJTe city's ~icTT6oir TH<T
Kese Too neiped ~l<T~?w>H the'
crowd that almost completely
_. filled the auditorium or tho big
pine temple.
But the evangelist's topic and
the growing Interest in the man
and his message would have made
the crowd larger than usual with
out these special delegations. The
evangelist's grip on the city Is al
most breath-taking. The revival
is the topic of conversation wher
ever one goes, whether he drops
In at (he barber shop, stops for a
magazine at the news stand or
greets a friend at the soda foun
tain. The barber at his chair, the
salesman behind the counter, the
executive at his desk, the work
man at his bench and the laborer
at his task are one and all think
ing and talking religion.
A Hrqnnaf for Prayer
A notable feature of last
night's service was that of a re
quest for prayer for a man who
feared that he was losing his sight
and bad driven miles to be pres
ent and to aak the prayers of the
evangelist and the oongregation.
The musical program also was I
notable In that It consisted en
tirely of numbers called for by
Coplo in tho audience.
Mr. Ham preached tp a large
pgregatlon this morning on the
subject. "Who Is Ood." Tonight
his topic will be "The Way of
Death" and he will take as his
text. "There is a way that seem
eth right unto a rosn. but the end
thereof is death ".
I^aat night's sermon:
The Bible falls Into three divi
sions: Revelation. Dispensation
and Exhortation. I want tonight
to read a little practical exhorta
tion given us In the Epheslan
epistle:
"Husbands, love your wives ev
en as Christ also Idved the church
and gave Himself up for It. He
that loveth his owfn wife ioveth
himself an(j let the wife
?ee that she fear her husband.
"Children". "Obey" your parents
the Lord for this la right. Honor
thy father and thy mother . . .
that It may be well with thee and
that thou mayst live long on the
earth. And. ye fathers, provoke
not your children to wrath, but
nurture them In the chastening
and admonition of the Lord. Ser
vants. be obedient Onto them that
according to the flesh are your
maaters "
For the basis of our message
tonight I want to take the flrst
rerse of the seventh chspter of
Oenepl* where Ood speaks to No
ah and says: "Come thou and all
thy house Into the Ark." That li
privilege. And another passage,
Gstleala 18:10: "1 know Abra
ham. He will command his house
!">'? after him." That is respons
ibility.

dren and servaata.
The home wss the Qrst Institu
tion ever established on earth.
When Ood created Eve as a help
mate for Adam, he established
the flrst institution of earth snd
placed upon It His divine sanction
aad blessing -the homo. Now the
home is s positive Institution.
There are Institutions 4hat are
negative; they are neither con
structlve nor destructive forces
but are merely punitive or restric
tive. Rut a positive Institution
may be either constructive or de
structive. It exerts sn Influence
that will either build up or tear
down. The home, the school, the
theater, the church, all these are
positive Institutions snd are cap
able of bslng sonstructlve If prop
erly conducted or destructive If
Improperly managed.
j/ The home, a positive Institu
tes capable of being either eon
?Iruetlve or destructive in Its In
fluence. Is the unit of society. It

didn't have back of him a good
homo and when you see a bad

its duty toward him.
The Home and Crime
This old world today I? doing
many foolish things In its vain
endeavor to correct the evils
i which threaten society. We hear
a great deal today about how to!
[check crime. Some ?ay we need
more education and we must have
I better schools. If they only knew
thy ?ouro of t h? t phllotonhr.
folks would not be running
around parrot-like reeling ofT
these Idea? and notions which |
they have never taken time to In
vestigate nor verify. Education Is '
all. right and we want the best
schools possible, but there is no
use deceiving ourselves.
Education doesn't stop crime. It
only changes the nature of the
crime. If you educate a criminal
you only mak* him a -more dan- r
K'TUUS criminal: He is In a bet-'
ter position to plan bigger crimes
and to better cover his tracks
wTien lfe "Baa committed s crime.
I am prepared to prove this state
ment with statistics and facts.
Only recently Judge Frailer of the
? South Carolina Supreme Court'
bench gave me an exhaustive
work showing this to be true.
! When Germany precipitated thla
last brutal war. she was the most
highly educated nation on earth,
having less than one-tenth of one
i per cent Illiteracy. Just at the
time when we were planning to
emulate her example In the estab
lishment of schools and colleges,
at the time when all our scholars,
to be finished, had to be graduates
of a German university. Just when
we were clamoring the loudest for'
more endowed school* and better
"?chuula that wuuld put us on au
equality with Germany Intellectu
ally. German education had Its
logical sequence In the World
j War.
Kaltur and Christ
I For years Germany had been J
I educating her youths and her
scholars In false theories and phil
osophies. in Machiavellan diplo
macy. and In higher criticism un
til the natural lust for power that
was theirs was fanned to white
: heat by philosophies which fed
i this lust until she set about to sat
isfy this lust and rule the world.
No education doesn't change the,
criminal, be It individual or na
tional. Some of the greatest in
tellects and roost highly educated
geniuses are the basest criminals.
Our hope Is not in education. j
though education may add great
i ly to our usefulness If we have
enthroned Christ In our hearts.
Others say we need better gov- ;
ernments. How are we to get
them? fly electing better legisla
tors they say. How are we to do,
this if we don't raise better legls-1
lalors and better voters? After;
all It comes back aKain to the In
dividual. No. we will never have,
better governments until we im
prove the Individuals thst consti
tute that government. A govern
ment hut reflects the character of
Its Individual cltlsenry.
1 Others maintain that we need
more churches. No. fine church
buildings and larger memberships
don't help. Europe has demon
strated that. She had the finest
church buildings the world has
ever known and large member
ships, but when the church began
to uilx and meddle with politics.
Its usefulness and real worth wss
crippled and finally It was ren
dered helpless. The church has
I always done Its greatest work
I when Its membership was small
and when It had little of ttv
world's properties.
Hopr In Home*
No. our hope todsy Is in the !
homes. From the homes we can
send out men Into every sphere of
life, the legislatures, the courts,
the business enterprises. the
churches, the schools and all these
Institutions can be corrected audi
made constructive Influences If.
the homes that produce the men ,
are right. Your churches are
^wfcat vour homes mako them. If
I come to town and want to de
termine the worth of your church.,
1 don't go to your service on Sun
day. but I go to your homes and
study the type of manhood and
womanhood that comprises your
church. There I can alwsys Judge
' correctly.
Henry W. Grady, that match

Inspiration for a great address,
once stood Id Washington and
gaied on the magnificent dome of
the capltol building and looked
around at the Immense buildings
that housed our governmental ma
chinery and said, "Surely, here Is
the foundation of our great re
I public." A short time after he
'was entertained one night In a
simple country home In Georgia
After supper, when the family
had been gathered around the
flreslde for a while, the father
said:

ORGANIZED BALL
New York, Oct. 24.?Co*y Do
lan. former New York Giant
coach. yesterday renewed hie (
fight to clear himself of charges
that he was implicated with Jim
my O'Connell in attempting to
bribe Heinie 8and. Philadelphia
rhortstop. He announced that he
would bring suit agataet Commit- I
sloner Landisand organized base- '
ball.
?Ir**. If not, we will show you
to your room."
Mr. Grady aeked the privilege
of remaining, ""he father got !
down the old board back Bible
and read a psalm. The family
then all. Joined in singing a hymn .
after which the iather prayed for .
the blessings of God upon his
family and the stranger in their
midst. Alter Mr. Grady went to!
his room and thought upon the
scene he had Just witnessed he
said to himself. "I was mistaken.
The foundation of this govern
ment is not in Washington, but It
Is Just such homes as this where
Christian character is moulded
and sent out Into the country to
mould the character and deter
mine the destiny of the nation."
The Christian household has been
the salvation of the country.
Home a Divine Institution
The household is established
by a divinely Instituted Institution
?marriage. This relationship In
typical of the character of God.
In marriage is united all the flrm-j
neMs and decision and rugjtedness 1
of the male with the tenderness
and beauty and love of the fe
male. Marriage Is typical of Je
sus who was the generic man. who
combined In one man all that was
admirable In man and all that wan
Lovable in woman. This marriage ,
relationship le an Institution of]
God and as a divine Institution la
not to be regarded lightly nor en-'
tered Into careleeely.
The Bible hae given some very
definite suggestions as to tho im
portance of serious thought con
cerning this vital step. In the
first place the Bible suggests that
you be not unequally yoked. It Is
very foolish for a believer to mar
ry an unbeliever. Only friction i
and trouble can result. It Is pri
marily essential to a happy union
that there be unanimity In the re-1
latlon of husband and wife to
God. Too. It tl unwise for people
of unequal Intellectual attain
ments to be yoked together. A
cultured, refined, educated woman
would never be happy If yoked
with an uncouth, poorly Informed
man. I'eople of different social
strata or different nationalities
are very foolish to marry. The
Bible's Injunction Is Just ss true
In other spheres as it Is In the re- ,
llgfous sphere.
Then there must be love. With
out love there can be no success
ful union of lives. It is impossible
for people to live together happily
In the Intlmftte relationship of
husband and wife and study the '
Interests each Of the other and
play the game of give and take
if there Is not love to prompt It <
all.
The (We for Dtvorse
It Is lack of love that Is Ailing
our divorce courts today. It Is
useless to legislate axalnst di
vorce. The divorce court Is but
the cemetery of dead love It Is
too late to remedy conditions at
the divorce eourt. The remedy
must be applied before the union
Is ever contracted. If people don't
love each other, there is no use
trying to force them to live to-1
tcether. 1 am by that like Sam
Jones was when he said
"Whom the Lord hath Joined
together will lite together, bat
whom the devil hath Joined to
gether will beat the stuffing out
of each other and you can't stop
them."
Give us the right sort of char
actcra in our boya and girla, give
us boys snd girls who have been
properly resred and who approach
the martla** relationship In e*rl- 1
oneness and In prayer and yon
will remedy your divorce evil and
that Is your Mly hope. Give us
the right sort of men and women
and we will have happy and con
tented homes.

but remember man that the wo

A Command and n Promlne
Then the children must obey
their parents. LlsUn. children,
that Is one command that carries
with It a promise. Clod says
"Obey your parents In the Lard
for this right. Honor your fath
er and mother that It may be well
with thee and thou mayst live
long on the earth." The diso
bedient and disrespectful child
I will never have a happy contented
' life.
Parents "provoke not your
children to wrath." You ean't
rear a child on "Don't" Hnd "Do."
You must develop character. A
child up to a certain age is merely
'unmoral." It doesn't know right
from wrong except as you give H
instruction. After It becomes
of a certain ace. It become*
either moral or immoral ac
I cording to the Instruction you
have given It and tho character
you have developed In It. Pre
cepts and commands. Injunctions
and exhortations are no good. II
Is character what counts. By the
.time a child Is eight years of age
! It has 90 per cent of Its vocabu
lary and I am confident that 80
per cent of its character Is al
ready formed. Oh. the responsi
bility that rests on parents du
ring the tender, formative years
of their children. Your children
are Just what you make them. My
little girls will bo Just what my
wife and I have made out of them
and I propose to lesve undone not
one thing that will contribute to
building up a fctalwsrt character,
with high aspirations and alms
snd hatred of the base and low.
(Often times We psrents lay too
much stress on punlshmnt. We
often punish a child trfhen we
have failed to teach the child the
difference between right and
wrong. You must train your
ehlld to hate that which Is wrong
and love that which Is good. The
less time yo# have spent In the
proper training of your child, the
? mor* time yet? wHI have to spend
In punishing It The secret or

A ChrMUn? Privilege
"Come thou and all thy house"
says Ood. That Is privilege. Kv
ery parent has the privilege of
having a united household at all
times and through all eternity.
'Ood never separates a household.
! If a household la separated It Is
not Ood'? fault. You have tho
privilege of inspecting all your
houae to be saved and to be with
you In heaven If you do not let
the prlnrlplea of God's govern
ment . break down All govern
ment Is cf Ood ind If He governs
you he can govern and control

No. It Is not God's purpose that
a household should ever be dl
j vlded or broken and If tonight I
'can sugg**Kt a way by which we
can prevent sin from breaking up

have accomplished a great thing
[that will bring rich blessings

Many parents would give (ho

"1 know Abraham He will

Th^re must be authority. You
can't let your children rebel
against authority in the homo
without furnishing to th" world a
eft lien that will rebel against the
ruthorlty of the stale Our pen
itentiaries are filled wlh folks who
didn't learn to respi-ct authority.
Mmi ll<* Aulliorlt>
In order that there may bo au
thority! there must bo a penalty
for the disobedience of law and
there must he punishment liut
Ihero are different ways of pun
ishing children. I have never
been much of an advocate of cor
poral punishment except in ?-x
tremo case?. I believe you only
brutalize your child. If you are
careful to glvs your child the
proper conceptions and ideas of
right and wnnp corporr! pun
ishment should be unnecessary.
You can't punish all children
alike. There are somo that will
respond to corporal punishment
while others will only rebel and
become worse. My older little
girl Is very much like her Daddy
?-hard-headed and self-willed
and obstinate. To whip her would
only bo to cause her to become
defiant and bitter. Yet, I have
seen her mother say. "Hsby, you
are grieving mother You are
lust tirprskfng heT hrart" and f
have seen Ihos?- big brown eyes
fill with tears and have seen her
go throw her arpi* around moth
er'? neck and say "Mother, I am
sorry. -I don't want lo hurt you.
Please forgive me." Too often
beating tint brutalize!? your child
Keatember 'he leas of Instruction
yon give, the more punishment
you will have to administer.
Hut some of you say you can't

your children Just need a daddy
