PAGE TWO EVOLUTIONIST CM BE CHRISTIAN 1$ 111 Methodist General Evangelist So Declares in Sermon at Lake Junaluska Today LAKE JTTNALUSK, N. C„ Aug. 31.—A man can be an evolution ist and a Christian both, if he is not very much of either, but if he is deeply convinced of one he cannot accept the other, for they cannot be reconciled under logical analysis, Dr. Thurston 1?. Price, general evangelist of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South declared in a sermon prepared for delivery here today at the Bible and Evan gelistic Conference. “Just as the old anvil wears out every hammer the blacksmith buys so will the word of God, the ‘Rock of Ages,’ remain just as solid as ever when all these little knockers have spent their force and moved on to oblivion,’’ he asserted. “The day of Robert Ingersol and Tom Paine were palmy easy day? for the church of God com pared with today. For in those days, we had the enemy of a real Christian fighting out in the open, marching under their own flag, while today, they are getting so RYLANDER THEATRE SATURDAY TOM MIX in 5 reels of action and romance “3 Jumps Ahead” “SMARTY” > a funny Century' comedy ART ACORD in the latest chapter of “The Oregon Trail’ TODAY “The Brass Bottle’’ and Charlie Chaplin in “The Floorwalker’’ Better CarruMe Atonpi Mr. Motorist & ** A V Besides saving you a whole B ? \ lot of bother in waiting for fe -i | \ change, .or of carrying extra H a -——s \ J to H| $lO 00 B 64801A J A change along, I save you Rj money when you buy me s' \ and just as long as you use / ) me '..... - t ImlkeHandiiStanJardOil Coupon Book You get me at a discount and trade me, full face, at any of the following, or any other Standard Oil Company (Kentucky) Service Station, for Crown Gasoline or Polarine Motor Oil, which insure you more mileage and more satisfaction for your money. 4 . i ■ —*— ■ ———— -•- 1 ..

"My nositiun is that 1 will lis ten with the greatest respect and tolerance to any man that may not I see and understand things in the word of God, as I see them. But Ito differ on interpretation and for ■ a m4n to seek to destroy the word of God —these are two very dis- ■ ferent things. “In, evolution of man from a | ground worm (they have dropped ; the ape theory now) is true, then there was no ’fall of man*. If no I fall, then no need for the ‘one ■ and perfect man, or second Adam.’ If man evoluted from animals, and animals have no immortal soul then when and how did man be come an 'immortal so»l?'” he asked. MANY HAZARDOUS STUNTS IN ‘THREE JUMPS AHEAD.’ i Tom Mix. in “Thre Jumps Ahead,” his latest picture, which will be shown at the Rylander the- I atcr on Saturday, shares hoonrs I with “Tony,” the remarkable horse i who has become known to motion I picture fans everywhere. The pic- I ture is a fast moving tale with I plenty of thrilling stunts and an ; interesting love story. I The story deals with the activi ties of a band of cattle rustlers of I the old West and their subsequent 'defeat at the hands of the Texas rangers. The rustlers capture Mix and take him to their secret cave which has its entrance beneath, a waterfall. In order to enter the cave the men ride through the wat er and thus come to a rock walled fortress. Mix escapes from the rustlers’ stronghold and recues the i father of the girl he loves. Then he leifds the rangers in pursuit of , the bandits. On the program with “Three , Jumps Ahead” will be shown Art I Acord’s latest chapter of “The ! Oregon Trail” and “Smarty,” a I Century comedy.
