He told his audience that a great number of these bootleggers were wicked people who had slipped into the Church playing the part of hypocrites and Whose sinsi at their funerals were covered up by these devil? sent preachers, who cared more for the clothes and bread they get than they do for the souls of men and that a large per cent -of the members were ardent supporters of these bootleggers and consimate hypocrites.

She said that many women think that as soon as they marry a man tfcat^ends it. ("She "said that all women^af that -type forget-that the thing that it took to get a man is the same thing that it takes to keep him. She llluslialed how the untidy, the unkept woman drives her husband after other women and then complains about het own ;work. She spoke at some length about the wife who nags her husband-out of her life into the life of some one else. She spoke1 .about-the lovoless woman and the problem she creates in her own hornet That she blights all that she touches and that she. sends forth children from her home to do just as she has done,1 ariH to bring sorrow and misery into the lives of others, just as sho has hrnnght them,into^ the' life of her husband. She. saw no j peace, happiness or progress for 'the jealous wife. She therf' spoke about the things that en-j ter into_the making of a home.' She next spoke of .the social diseases that now afflict millions in this country. She warned the^ young girle- present about grinning up into-the faces of the strangp men she meets. As a -nurso in hospitals, she -detailed Her experiences along thhr line, and she gave illustration after illustration of the dreadfuLjresults that have come under her immediate observtion1 along this, line. She spoke of the thousands of women whose lives are wrecked, who rushed thoughtlessly into such conditions. She pleaded with the^^UTig women and girls to live clean?Hvesr She saw nothing in the future for the young wife who flirts with other men, nor could she see anything ahead for the young girls who flij-t with married melfef ~ The meeting last week was a decided success. The messages she delivered each night drew increasingly la?rge crowds^ JJer discussion l>f the, Subject last Tuseday night April 13th "What is the Trouble with the Church To-day?" was well worth hearing. She found commercialized sin in the amen corners in our jChijrches.. She found immorali ty, lying, steaTing, TFTe comnfOlT law wife-anxLlha short skirt and dancing as two of the ways by which many women are destroy-ing their influence for good. She found unchristian people in the choirs of our churches, who sing one thing and do another.
