P. U. Congress, notwithstanding
the downpour of rain, the people
turnecToat in gfeat numbers
to hear this greatpreaeher and
lecturer.. After singing, praying
and reading the Scripture we introduced
Dr. Dixon, who preaehed
from Matt. 5:14, "Ye are the

subject, "Cleaning up," and before

and indifferent fathers and slothful

mothers that they were respondownfall
of their daughters, by
allowing them to lay down-their
~ " old-fashioned- modesty, fa ugh t
by uur fme-paTents, for the latter

While Dr. Dixon was scoring
them along these lines you could
see mothers wincing and strain?ing
their necks as if trying lu

breathless silence but when
streek with heavy blows about
the-negligence of their duties as
fathers' to their sons, would occasionally
turn their heads) to
??- see if ^hcin sons were in church
where they should be or out on
the Church grounds giving bootleggers
their patronage- Dr.
Dixon scored the bootleggers in
language they had never heard
before. 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. While
Dr. Dixon was pouring out these
truths in such heavy doses I imagined
I could hear devils crying
out in the Church as in olden

| Again Frfday, April _9tlv-the
Warriors, groomed for battle,
made their march to Colum;
bia and fought one ol their most
successful games by defeating
Benedict College, who had not
| lost a game this ooooon in tho'
present. 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. Said
she: "They often sing, 'O for a
heart to praise my God, a heart
from sin set free.' when they
are vitally Connected with all
