MRS. HILLIS OPENED WITH
A SPLENDID VOCAL SDLO
Evangelist Hillis Scored Pastor Russell
I and Outlined Hell So Forcibly That
Many in the Audience Got Bid
Quickly of Their Chill Feelings
Despite the threatening weather,
there was a large audience present at
' the tabernacle last evening and. accord
ing to a statement made oy the execu
j tive committee this morning, there are
i evidences on every hand that the re-
I vival is beginning to grip Steelton and
vicinity in a forceful way. Nine con
i verts hit the sawdust trail.
Beginning tomorrow afternoon at
2.30 o'clock and continuing up until
Saturday there will be two afternoon
j meetings each day. One will be held in
| the tabernacle and the other in the
; Main Street Church of God. Church
f members who are denouncing the cam-
I paign were scored in no uncertain terms
: by Evangelist Hillis last night, and his
I words met with the hearty approval of
| all present. He said: "If you do not
favor the campaign, keep your mouth
shut."
Just before the sermon Mrs. C. E.
Hillis sang in a manner that touched
every heart "There Is Time Enough
Yet to Be Saved.''
The subject of the Rev. Mr. Hillis
Sunday night was "Is There Any
Hell J" He said by way of introduc-
HARRISBURG STAR-INDEPENDENT, MONDAY EVENING, MAY 17, 1915.
tion that every minister, if he is true
to his.vows, must preach on hell. We
peed our jails to confine our criminals
in and hell is needed to confine those
in who reject I believe that hell
is as much a part of God's love storv
as heaven. God has provided a war
for man to be saved aud, if man will
not accept his plan, he will go to hell.
There is no room for you to argue this
question. The Bible savs you must
quit sin or go to hell. If there is no
hell, close up your churches and vour
Sunday schools and throw your Bibles
in the mud. No man can bo a Christian
and not believe in hell. Pastor Russell
says there is no hell . You know why
he does not believe in hell. If there is
a hell, he is sure to go there." Here
Evangelist iH ill is quoted passage after
passage from the Bible to show that
there is a hell.
"Pastor Russell says 'Christ's bodv
was not raised from the dead, but was
dissolved into gases.' I call him a liar.
He said the end of the world would
come in 1914. That time has come
and passed and the end has not come.
I believe that Mrs. Eddy and Pastor
Russell should be placed' in a cannon
and shot through a sewer into a barbed
wire fence into hell.
"I am not giving you theories and
speculations, but tbe word of God, and
it says there is a hell. lam giving you
the word of God, and I don't care what
you think. I don't care who he is, in
cluding President Elliot, of Harvard,
God will damn him just the same as he
will damn the lowest hobo of Steelton.
Pastor Russell and all who have given
up what the Bible says about hell have
done so because they are doing things
that will certainly send them there. I
believe hell is certain because Jesus
said so, and the word of God has stood
the test for eighteen centuries. Many
a man and woman are getting their hell
here as well as hereafter.
"Hell is the mad house of the uni
verse. You will never take any money
with you to hell. I believe the worst
torment endured in hell is that of mem
ory. You will remember the things
you have done, the memory of the re
jection of Christ. I believe there will
be no gratification of any desires you
form here. Hell is a place of shame.
Hell is a place without hope, according
to the word of God. There is not a
word from Genesis to Revelations that
will give you one ray of hope for those
who die in their «>ns.
"The only way to escape hell is to
accept Jesus Christ as your personal
Saviour. If you go to hell, you must
go over the blockade of the Bible, the
church, the ministry, a mother's pray
ers and the bleeding body of the Lord
Jesus Christ."
To Observe Memorial Day
A committee of residents of High
spire will meet Wednesday evening at
tiie home of George E. Sides, Second
street, to complete a program to >»e ob
served on Memorial Day. The pro
moters of the celebration desire to have

that town, as well as the patriotic or
ders. The, program will be observed
Monday, iMay 31.

AN OPEN LETTER
This Is Also a Paid Advertisement
RIGHT OR WRONG
We do not believe a whole lot in expending much money for newspaper advertising so that we are
thereby compelled to ask increased prices for our goods. However, we do, just occasionally like to let
EVERYONE know that this store is now as always selling furniture and other housefurnish at lower
prices than most other stores.
OUR WAY—
I We do a large business under an economical expense system which enables us to quote the lowest
possible prices on EVERYTHING. Our prices are uniformly low on all our goods. Our stock is one of
the largest and most complete in the city.
; Our customers will tell you that this store is not only one of the largest, but the best store in which
to purchase their home needs. In fact, our customers really prove to be our advertisers and they
have done it very well indeed. We believe thoroughly in a business system that will convince the cus
tomer that what he purchases here is at least just a little better for the same money, or as good for less
; money than he can obtain it for elsewhere.
This is the system which has built up our business to its present large proportions and is still doing
good work for us. We try our best ty give our customers the most for their money and our experience
has been that the customer can always be depended upon to return the favor in some good way.
REMEMBER THAT—
You may not see our advertisement in the newspapers'very often, but we ask you to chalk this down:
When you want to buy good furniture at the way-down price, this is the store that is sure to be there
with the goods you may want and with the price that will suit.
A JITNEY WILL LET YOU OFF RIGHT AT OUR DOOR.
