Taking the Biblical story of Bel- shazzar as told in the fifth chapter of Daniel as a basis for his conclu- sions on the subject “weighed and found wanting”, Dr. Thacker addres- sed a large audience of cadets and | campus people Thursday night in the | Assembly hall. “The people of today are weighed just as the ancient king was”. said por Thacker, “by their own consci- ences, by their fellow men, and by | God Himself. Every mind is con- scious of sin and also of a redee. ing ! God. God expects us tu live honest Christian lives befcre cur fellowwen so that we may not be founi wanting. ' The all seeing eyes of God are over | all, no matter what is thoaght, said or { done.” “People are found wanting hceause of three things”, concluded Dr. Thac- ker. “First, because of their pride and self-sufficiency; second, because they lift themselves up against God, tak- ing time, thoughts, talent, possess- ions and affections for own selfish use for pleasure and profit; and third, | their failure to glorify God, and give | Him credit for the wonderful things | he has done for them.” Dr. Thacker finished his series of services here last night on the sub- ject “The Supreme Tragedy of the 20th Century.” a — , — Sh: “BIG BROTHER” FEATURE OF PICTURE SHOW THIS EVENING One of the famous Paramount su- per-specials, “Big Brother,” will be the feature of tonight’s picture show in the Assembly Hall.
