Three pastors of Baptist churches in Hartford, where Mr. ith is to con- duct & serles of meetihgs il March for five Baptist churches of ‘that city, at- tended the service here Friday night and warmly commended the work of the evangelist, 'The Hartford pastors attending the service were Rev.

THé next man brought’ Mo the pul-, pit in the evangelist’s sermon-was the captain of the ship. Who stood for the man of the world in the nudience, the man who savs God has given me rea- son to use and I will riot aceént any- thing: that I cannot understand. He is inconsistent for we are accepting ev- ery day thihgs that we cannot under- stand. The third man was the cap- tain of the guard. He stood between Paul on one side and the captain of the ship, on' the other and had the power of decision. He stood for hu- man ¥ These two refused to take the preachier's advice about sailing, but it turned out that the preacher was right. Why didn't the storm come at the beginning of the voyage? May I turn that around and sav that isn't the devil's wav for if he showed us the storm first he would never get us, but he shows us calin waters, the blue sky ang the soft south winds and because iwe think everything is all right we lare fooled. If the devil were, to show [us the end-of sin, rather than the be- ginning, he would mever get us, but he knows how -to fascindte and how to paint beautiful pictures and. he never ghows' the reality. and end. of sin. The man in the gutter tonight r intended to end up there. His n was just as clear as yours one nd his imagination and ideals h as yours, but he was fas- ted by the pictures that the devil paintéq for him and now he is down and out. 1 have sometimes imagined, contin- ued Mr. Smith. T could see that won- derful vessel, the Titanic. Iving in the docks at Southampton, England, and she was a wonderful vessel. She had everything ‘on board to delight and fascinate the White Star Company for they knew that the star of ascenden- Ley in this age was the star of self-in- dulgence and pleasure and they had said if we can only put on another thrill we can squeeze out another dime. And they did their best. You could get food ‘at any minute of the day or night. She was a floating ho- tel. Every game that was possible to be played aboard a ship was there and T have sometimes thought that T could see her salling from Southampton on her maiden voyage with the band playing and I have also imagined that I have been walking around the prom- enade decks and heard the click of the wireless on that fateful night and seen i his shirt sleeves Wwith the receiver to his ears. taking down that warning message, “There's ice in the vicinity. Look out.” And 1 have thought thaf I could see him writing it down on paper, and then breathlessly rushing to the bridge he gives the message to the captain and then after the captain read it he hands it over to his subordinate offi- cer and said, “What do you think of it?" and the officer replies, “Well, we Will keep a sharp lookout, but I think that they are mistaken, for if there is any ice we could see it for _fiftean miles. What do_you think, sir? Do you think'*we better slacken the speed?” And I have imagined that I could hear the captain say, “Slack nothing.” I'never dreamt that'a day would ever come that I should be master of an ocean greyhound that GAGER Funeral Director and Embalmer Prompt Service Day or Niaht ————why? history of the.city.{ ; H_ 70 EVANGEL ever, e ihion che? ik of the Joalotay ‘hin) g 4 % g Company “and_the Nort T vith env; k. n Shén' We' s “Hhe. rec. stefti thip, = K of the people of the_jsland, of ~Manhattan dbwn F&fs:]hefl iers &f the Notth ver and applauding us as we make our bgrth.
