Telia Them There it Something
Wrong with the Preacher When
Congregrtion Falli Asleep.
IXARS TOO MUCH FORMALITY
"If a congTPRfttlon falters and
dwindles and folks fall asleep while
it pastor preaches God and Christ
Jesus, there Is something wrong with
the preacher." Billy" Sunday told
the 450 ministerial delegates and a
large adleunce of other people at the
Nebraska conference of the Meth
odist church Saturday morning.
He wsa Introduced m "Prother Sun
day," and the visiting pastors received
Mr. and Mrs. Sunday enthusiastically,
rave them the chautauqua aalute of nr
ln handkerchiefs, and also a rising- vote
of appreciation and thanks.
"Ma" Sunday said a few word before
er husband spoke. She "kidded" him
bout taking longer to dress for the
Heeling; than she required.
Better Qalt Preach I -.
"The pastor whoa listeners fall asleep
has lost his vlelon and had better quit
preachlnsV Mr. Sunday continued.
"Nations fall unless they have great
Melons. They won't ever have great
visions without the preacher, and the
preachers won't have the visions wlth
sut the word of Ood and Christ Jesus.
"You'll never save souls without a tidal
wave of the old-time rellslon. I don't
know anything about modern evangel
ism. Mine Is as old as the cross of
Christ.
The church Is In darurar of being
choked to death by dlffnlty and formal
ism. I am scared to death of becoming
formal and dignified."

The enansell.it criticised critics of the
Hlble. unless they helped to make the
wrlptures plainer. Jle laughed at
'scholiu-ly rellslon" and told the min
isters to preach the plain word of Ood
and solvation through Christ.
laugher and shouts of glee by the
audience accompanied Sunday's address,
because his vigor, acrobatics, plcturesquo
language and illustrations made such a
hit with the listening pastors.
Earlier In the, morning Homer Rode
heaver, the Tabernacle chorister, made
an address to the conference and sang
some of his most popular hymns. lie
gave a hymn book free to each minister
and told them that all profits from
sales of his hymn book to Nebraska
Methodist churches would be denoted to
the Crowell home for Methodist old peo
ple at Blair.

can upside down to show it was empty.
"If a , boy or girl keeps one habit It
la easy to get another habit and thus
the chsln of habits la formed." he ex
plained. After which he had his wrists
bound and locked with the chain, to
illustrate how the victim of habits Is
bound. He released himself from the
bondage of chain to show how a girl or
boy may be released if she or he will

He talked about cigarettes. "Take a
tip from me and say. Til never smoks
a cigarette.' Places of business are be
ing closed against the cigarette smoker,"
he warned. "There are five kinds of
poison In a cigarette. You have heard
cigarette smokers cough like this snd

cigarette victims). You may now and

You can't walk Into heaven and say:

Oh, eall back to the days when you had

edged sword. It not only cuts the man,
tuit It cuts his wife and children. Ood
knows, it la bad enough If only the sinner
suffers; but that Isn't all. You have to
suffer, but other people suffer more than
you. It hurt that girl to go down and
sell her virtue; but It hurts her mother
worse. It hurt that man to sidestep his
marriage vows and live with soma one
on the side; but it also hurts hia wife and
children. 64n ruts both ways. It hurt !
that young man to go Into a booxe Joint,

Is mors true than this: "One sinner

All sin has the same root. The man who
spat in the face of Jesus Christ cried
that "crucify him," aa plainly as the
mob. All sin starts with the rejection of
Jesue Christ '
lour rejection of Jesus Christ may not
cause you to crucify him, but you are re
jecting him; so there Is no place for you
over there; so the whole thing Is summed
up by your attitude toward Christ. One
man rejects Christ, and la-comes a drunk

comes a libertine. Kvery sin springs
from rejection of Christ. Thoy will all
go to the same place; you go to hell be
cause you reject Christ. Jut a word and

Say, if any of you can tell me of a life

more and do more for humanity than
by living a Christian life, I will live lt

Down In Georgia a preacher iwed to
go to the postofftce fifty or seventy-five
days In the year, and he always looked
through the window into ths postmaster's
of floe, and smiled his greeting. One day
he called for his mall as usual and sa
luted the postmsMer with the hour of
the day. The postmaster called him Into
his office and said: "Since you havo
been coming to the poetofflce 1 have got
so now that I look for you; and after
you have gone I feel cheered and inspired.
I am glad when you come, and am dis
appointed If you don't I have had a
pair of boots made for your use. I havo
left orders for them to make you tl3
best pair of boots they can make of the
finest and most expensive material money
can buy. That Is Just a little apprecia
tion of what your smile and cheer has
done for me." He said! "Just give Ood
the credit, noj me, because lt Is thj
Lord."

I am troubled with doubts." I.iHten: A
famous lawyer lived in New York. He
was a skeptlo. He waa the personal
friend of one of the preachers, who, out
of courtesy, promised to preach. The
preacher prepared three sermons espe
cially designed to enlighten this lawyer.
The lawyer was wealthy, and hs knew
If be could convert him what lt would
mean to that community. He preached
the first sermon oo resulta He preached
the second sermon, and ths man came
down the aisle and took his stand for
Christ "I wish you would tell ma what
It was In the sermon thst led you to
Jesus Christ" He said: "Nothing, lf
you want to know why I am here to ac
cept Jesus Christ I will tell you." He
said: "You know Tom Hudson, don't you?
Well. I met Tom carrying a saw horse
00 one shoulder and a saw on the other.
Tom had no overcoat and, no mittens on.
He was eomlng down the street singing
'Jesus Paid It AH, All to Him I Owe.' 1
said, Tom, why the devil are you singing
a song like that this cold rooming
when you have to saw wood to keep
your horns' and children and wife warm,
and have no mittens to wear? What do
you think Tom said? I will tell you. H
said. "If you want to know what makes
me stag, 1t Is the Joy of knowing Christ
Well, I have been telling you that reli
gion was an Intellectual process. When
1 beard Tom sing, I knew lf religion was
an Intellectual process Tom would never
havo understood it because he don't have
a bright mind. But Tom had experience,
which I had not, and I was trying to get
In head first and hs had got In heart
first So, I have come to say that I am
willing to accept Jesus Christ without
experiment." Let ths wicked forsaks his
way. That la your part eLt the unright
eous forsaks his thoughts. That is your
part And let him return to the Ixrd.
That Is your part And he will have
mercy upon him. That la God's part. For
he will abundantly pardon. That Is Ood s

PORTLAND, Ore., Sept. . When Gov
ernor Moses Alexander of Idaho and his
staff left here today on the steamer Rone
City for San Francisco an officer and
gun crew of the Oregon Naval academy
cruiser Boston attempted to honor the
governor with a seven toe n-gun salute.
After four shots, however, the guns be
came silent.
The captain of the Rose City, apprised
In advance of the Intended honor, stopped
his boat awaiting conclusion of the sa
lute. No more shots were forthcoming,
however, and after a time the steamer

Protection means "shredding" each character into the paper, forcing
two colors of insoluble ink (Todd Patents) through and through each

The two colors (amounts red, denominations black) give the check
