' WEULIAM JENNINGS BRYAN AT TAYLOR UNIVERSITY By the arrangement of President Jatacs M. Taylor, this university has had J,he rare privilege of hearing the Great Commoner, who spoke to two immense audiences Sunday evening, November 6th, on the subject "The Bible and its Enemies." Distin guished guests and people who had come from surrounding cities and towns filled the college auditorium and listened to one of the ablest ad dresses ever delivered. Then the people departed and another audience composed of faculty, students and townspeople filled the auditorium when Mr. Bryan spoke the second time, repeating his address of two hours length with such .supplement ary matter as seemed appropriate to the. new audience. Mr. Bryan's lecture was a remark able defense of ".the faith which was once for all delivered unto the saints." It was more than that, for Mr. Bryan was not content with merely defending the Bible. He charged the enemy's breastworks, at tacking all along, the line' and driv ing hiixv out of .b.is entrenched places in church and school. He said it Was time the church' quit apologizing for the BJWo and Degan toi fight. The enemies to which he ga-ve Bpecial at tention were ATHEISM, A'GNOSTIC- ,ISM, HIGHER -CRITICISM, and juakwijnisjvj or- evolution The last two' got the heaviest blows from the speaker since these, insidious foes of eyangelical J-ruth wee doing. most to destrpy the faith of youth ' in the Bible as a- supernatural Book. He cited instances, of 'such destructive work in certain-institutions r of learn ing where -the teaching is higher critcaJL and .evolutionary. And he was glad, he said, to know that Taylor University .Was a school which he, could, safejy tecbmmen'd to par ents for jtheir sons and,? daughters, where their" faith Would :'be intelli gently fostered by teachers1 who stood for the plenary, inspiration of the Bible &tf ,well as;.f or Ja tf0?ouh edu cation, ' t It is not possible in the brief space of thli? notice to do justice to a lec ture in which, powerful, reasoning was lit. UP , with' gleams of humor and sarcasm that turned the laugh upon the enemies of our-Bible. Again an again the speaker's telling points Were greeted with hearty applause. No one who heard this lecture can forget the. logic that hewed down the AgagS of, unbelief nor the eloquence that paid tribute to tile Book on which rests air that is priceless in our faith and civilization. It is a inatter 'for .devout thanksgiving that God has iaid'His hand upon the man so well-known in Chtfrch and State to champion His truth against foes discovered in the very household of faith, and it is encouraging to feel that when the pulp'it and theological chair become recreant to this sacred obligation, there are such laymen to meet it. We feel suYe that readers of The Commoner will be interested to know that Taylor University has an educational standard excelled by none, and that, in addition to her ex cellent courses of study, she stresses the religious side of college life, thus fostering a strong spiritual and mis- CoHserve Your Efealils 15 sionary interest throughout the year, "J.roaWng everything tend to the fulfilment of -her watchword, "LUX ET FIDES."

KENTUCKY BAPTISTS ASIC BAN ON DARWIN THEORY A Lexington, Ky., dispatch, dated Nov. 28, says: The state legislature at its next session will bo asked by tho Kentucky Baptist Church and other religious organizations to bar the teaching of tho Darwinian theory and other theories of evolution re garded as subversive of Christian teachings in tho public schools of the state if tho plans announced by Dr. J. W. Porter, pastor of the First Bap tist Church here, are carried out. Dr. Porter delivered a sermon last night on "Evolution" in which he challenged any defender of tho Dar winian theory to meet him in debate here at any time. After tho sermon the congregation adopted resolutions petitioning the Lexington Board of Education to dis card all text books containing the Darwinian theory. THE FARMER'S INTERESTS William Jennings Bryan has taken up the role of spreading the evangel of the one divinely ordained vocation of man. To till the earth was the sole industrial task given to the gardener of Edon when he had for feited his tenancy of that horticult ural paradise. All the other toils and achievements of the race are concen tered in the dependent on the labors of the husbandman as bread, the symbolic word comprehending all wholesome food, is the staff of life and the fuel of human energy.- Mr. Bryan, with all that is in him, is championing the interests of the American farmer. As the farmer js bound to be the last man to see the sun, Mr. Bryan holds that the farmer is the first 'man to be considered by his fellowman and the "power's that be."

If laws are obnpxious to the people, it is their premise to repeal ttpni. Until they are repealed they must be obeyed and enforced without fear or favor. The government will endure on the rock of law enforcement, or it will "perish in the quicksands of lawlessness. Those who do not be lieve in our government and the en forcement df our laws should go to a country which gives them their pecu liar liberty. To those who come to our Bhores to take advantage of American opportunities it is becom ing to wave the hands of welcome. But it is our duty to warn them to stay away unless they intend to obr serve our customs and obey our laws." let Me SendYou VDiEli on tn'akPdh' I JILL of Amdsome Tortoise Shell Glasses WHnE9"3&Lfifeu ft' . , MM 4T ?f wr&fi m jflPjtr 5 For maTiy, sjr i& m yearn D.OflPlp,. have bOQji qpinjnr; to mo froni ovorj part of Clilcatro on account of tny wide reputation for up plyin Klassoa that Jit.
