An Interesting Sermnn
By action of the Ministerial
Alliance on Monday morning a
committee was appointed to con-
fer with the editors of the differ-
ent newspapers of our city and
secure if possible their consent
to publish a synopsis of the ser-
mon presented to the alliance
each week to which the papers
kindly consented and this week
we have the sermon presented
by Rev C E Parsons of the
Frst M E church delivered on
Sunday evening December 29th
Rev Parsons said in part:
I want to speak to you this ev-
ening on what a d readful thing it
is to be an impenitent sinner and
as a text I will use Eccle 9 18
“One sinner destroyeth much
good”
As we look about us and over
the world we see evidence of a
mighty devastation A terrible
force has been at work and is
still operating Domestic sor-
rows social wrongs and evil op-
pressions are in the wake of this
tornado of evil that sweeps the
world Heartaches and heart-
breaks pain and suffering tears
and groans blighted hopes and
blasted lives are everywhere in
evidence
Looking out on the world thus
affected is much like looking out
over a forest where sometime a
devastating fire has raged
There is hardly a tree that has
escaped the fire’s ravage Like
that is the world affected by sin
only here the devastation contin-
ues The world was built for joy
but sin has made it a world of
much sorrow Men were made
to be happy but sin has brought
untold trouble Everywhere is
heard the discordant note of sin
Are the dockets of our courts
tilled with cases awaiting trial?
Do our prisons of the land hold
thousands of men and women
whose lives are stained with
crime? Tuese are some of the
fruits of sin Sin is lawlessness
1 John 3:4) We are under the
government of God where law
reigns “where every transgress
ion and disobedience receives a
just recompense of reward”
Strictly speaking says Dr
Huntington sin admits of no
plural number Sin is the com-
mittal of the will to the law of
selfseeking Definite acts of sin
are but expressions of the stand-
ing choice of self gratification
Sm is not impersonal Your sin
is yourself occupying an unsub-
missive attitude toward the will
of God
Selfishness is the root of all
sin Sin makes self the center
of gravity in one’s life The sin-
ner seeks to satisfy his infinite
divine hunger in the things of
the world instead of in God so
he makes some earthly good his
idol Something must be su-
preme in every life If it is not
WAGONER OKLA
God then that soul has an idol
The chief aim ©f the sinner is his
own welfare He wants to be
happy but he wants to gain that
end in his own way which is not
God ’s way He insists on having
his own way despite the author-
ity of God and the best interests
of his fellowmen He will be his
own master and will not have
Christ to reign over him This
is self -edification and herein ap-
pears the enormity of sin Every
impenitent sinner treats himself
and his own pleasure as of more
importance than his duty to God
and his obligations to his fellow-
men He insists that his will
shall be first Every thing else
must stand out of the way No
matter what mercies he despises
no matter how many others he
ruins his own will and way must
be supreme and God and heav-
en and duty and all the best in-
terests of men must get out of
the way of everything else for
deified self
Sin works liven like in the
heart poisoning the fountain of
life then it extends to others to
society to government to the
world
Sin poisons one’s thoughts and
feelings and loves It destroys
his happiness and hope and him-
self Sin is the curse of the
earth the bane of the nations
the foe of domestic happiness
the deadly poison of the soul
Sinners are destroyers One
sinner is a destroyer a destroy-
er of good of much good That
is dreadful Good destroyed!
Think of it! It is like destroying
the oxygen out of the air or light
out of the world
One sinner destroys much
good One leak will sink the
ship One spark will blow up
the magazine One breath will
poison 1000 cubic feet of pure air
One drop of iodine will color 6000
times its volume of pure water
One sinner — are you that sinner?
It is impossible to undo all the
evil we have done It is easy to
cut down a tree but it is difficult
to grow another There were no
lights in the light house but
there was a light in the wrong
place A ship with its crew and
cargo was lost The misplaced
light was restored but not so the
ship with its crew and cargo
They were forever lost The
sinner’s life is a misplaced light
One can not sin to himself Sin
is a disease that is fearfully con-
tagious It first and forever
hurts the sinner Then it for-
ever hurts others
Is there no remedy for all this
wreck and ruin nothing that can
stay all this devastation? Yes
there is a remedy You say
wonderful if this be true It is
wonderful You say show me
the proof of it The millions of
redeemed men and women are
ample evidence Jesus Christ
ancl his salvation is the all suffic-
ient remedy for sin and all the
ills of earth

Another Appeal
By alt Mason
Dear Woodrow Wilson: Here
I stand a lightning rod in either
hand impatient to be struck I
told you how I’d bleed and die
but you have sent me no reply —
just like my doggone luck! I told
you if I had a chance I’d be your
minister to France or ditto to
St James turn down the pa-
triots who shirked but don't
neglect the ones who worked un-
til they broke their hames! You
well may shudder when you
think of how you’d be upon the
blink had I not toiled and slaved
for you throughout the long cam-
paign I wore out body boots
and brain — and how have you
behaved? Long since you got
my courteous note no answer to
the same you wrote but left me
here to pine and all my enemies
in town predict that you will turn
me down that I’ll get soup for
mine I don’t insist on foreign
post — though such a snap would
suit me most — most any job will
do just any snap beneath the
sun to show you’ve not forgotten
one who did so much for you I
am the man who for you yelled
when all the other fellows held
the fort for Ted and Bill I am
the man who drilled the dubs
and organized the Wilson clubs
at Mudville-on-the-Hill
