x'IIE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. Monday. Apuir.lm. 7 "GIVE GOD A CHANCE;" REV. RICHARD O. ELIAN MAKES A GREAT APPEAL Preaching It North Avenue Presby terian church Sunday night. Rev. Rich- trd orme Fllnn took for his text. -Yield Yourselves to God,” and plead ed eloquently for surrendered lives. I„ the course of his sermon Mr. Fllnn laid: -We ought to obey the appeal of this text because In the past we have obeyed the appeal from another source. There Is not one of us In the past that his not yielded himself to Satnn.- You have yielded your temper, your tongue, vour heart, your person to the power of evil. Why should you not try Jesus rhrist as heartily and thoroughly as rou have tried Satan? Give God a chance. The devil has had hts fling and nsed you; now give God a chance to “ , you. There have been times when rou gave yourself right up -to the old mood which was evil. Glvo yourself as completely up to God, that He may ■how what He can do with you. •••I am too weak,’ you say? God ■cat an angel to n man named Gideon u d told him to save Israel from the Mldlanltes. But Gideon said, ‘I'm not the man you arc looking for. I am a weak man. I haven't any Influence— my family Is small In Israel.' But God ■aid, 'Have not I sent thee? I will be with thee.’ Finally Gideon yielded himself to God. and what did God do7 Hq took Gideon and 300 men and de- llrered a nation from the oppressor! Gideon gave God a chance, and God hted that poor material to save Israel. “God Wants Your Intellect” «If God wants your intellect let Him h»ve it. You may think It Is a very poor choice on God's part, but let Him hire what Ho wants In your life. A young girl came to Mr. Campbell Mar gin wanting to bo used In God's work, but she said, ‘I can do nothing.' Ho said. ‘Can you sing, at all?' 'No.' she Hid. ‘Not at all?' ‘Well. I sing In the parlor sometimes, and In the con gregation, but I never led any singing.' He said, 'Give God a chance with your voice tonight, will you?' She said. '1 will, and that night she sang In Mr. Morgan's meeting. She felt that her voice was poor, but she offered' It to God to use, and there was so much of pathos, humility and tenderness In that voice that God- did use It. Only one man went Into the Inquiry room In the sftsr-meetlng, and when questioned he said It was the tenderness and passion In the song that had led him there. That man became a mighty Instrument In God’s hand In England in the sal vation of souls, going all over the United Kingdom winning souls. The girl had given God a chance to use her voice, and He used It. "You remember that tiny little fellow among the crowd of people; ho had Just a few fish and some little loaves of bread. It didn't look like he could do anything for God In that great crowd. Ho had something to eat. but nothing like enough for them. And God said. 'Give It to me: give me a chance.' And the little fellow gave Him his basket of fish and bread, and In God's hands It fed a multitude, and baskets full were taken up so that he had more a they had all eaten than he had at beginning. God always uses the man and the means that are yielded to Him. If God Isn't using you today It isn't God's fault, it Is your fault. God needs a hundred men and a hundred women In this church. My, If there were 300 people yielded up to God In this church we would see sights here that would thrill this city. But we haven't two hundred persons yielded up In any such sense. And all through this city, and this state, and throughout the world the crying need Is for yielded lives. Oh that God would cause you to say to night. ‘Here am I, Lord; take me!' He will do It.” , CHAS, D, HILL CULLED TO REST Wife of Solicitor Hill and Mother of Harvey Hill. After an Illness of about three months Mrs. Caroline H. Hill, wife of Solicitor General Charles D.

On account of repeated threats by her husband, F. P.

After being locked In the police sta tion, Armstrong broke out a window pane and severely gashed his throat. He was removed to the Grady hospital where the wound was closed. Monday morning Armstrong was able to appear before Recorder Broylee. Mrs. Armstrong pleaded for her husband, saying she had him arrested merely through fear that he might commit sul cldc. On the promise of the husband that he would not drink any more and would behave hlmseir, tiro recorder al lowed him to go, but held the case open. Judge Broyles reprimanded Arm strong for trying to kill himself, re marking: "If a man Is alone In the world think he ought to be permitted to kill himself. Sometimes It Is a good rid dance. But when a man has a wife and children dependent on him and tries to end hie life, he demonstrates that he Is nothing but a downright coward.” DR. TRIPPE PLEADS GUILTY AND IS FINEO $50.
