    Christian Urged
to "Bare Light’"
Spirit of Christ Is Needed in
Politics, Says Rev. H. C.
Whitcomb.
Let the light of Christ shine in the
sphere of politics, was the plea of
Bev. H. C. Whitcomb of Calvary
Baptist church in his morning ser
mon yesterday. His subject was
"The Torchbearers."
He spoke on the text, "Ye are the
light of the world. Let your light
so shine before men that they may
see your good works and glorify your
Father which is in heaven."
"Unquestionably this is a high as
sumption which Jesus makes for his
disciples," Hev. Mr. Whitcomb said.
"It is, however, a simple fact of his
tory that Christianity and the
Christian church have exerted on
human society a moral Influence
which fully warrants the assump
tion. No influence has been more
profound, more extensive and more
enduring than that of Jesus Christ
perpetuated through*the lives of his
followers. Despite all the imperfec
tions of the church, despite all that
can be alleged against it in the way
of priestcraft and superstition and
persecution, the simple historical fact
lemains that the lives of Christian
men and women have exercised an
incomparable Influence for good upon
the world.
"Before the light of Jesus Christ,
the world's darkness has steadfastly
disappeared and never in the history
of time have the eyes of all nations
been turned with greater hope or ex
^tctancy toward Him than In the
^present time. With boldness and
confidence, we must proclaim afresh
the adequacy of this light for the
moral and spiritual crisis Which con
fronts the world today.
“A lamp burns through the pro
cess of combustion. Just so, we must
be willing to allow the self within to
l e consumed in the act of letting our
life burn more consistently for Christ.
Your business and mine, friends, is
to ro live that after our personalities
have become lost in the shadow, w*e
shall leave behind us a trail of light
that will guide the steps of those who
otherwise may walk in darkness.
"Our greatest need just now is for
the Christian citizens of this com
munity to take the bushel off their
lamp and let the light of Christ shine
in (he sphere of politics. Let the
Christian business man take the
bushel off his lamp and allow the
principles of Christianity to be clear
ly evidenced in commercial circles.
Whatever responsibilities are yours
-in the community, let your light shine
there for Jesus Christ. When people
begin to take Jesus seriously, they
will lose their temerity.”
Too Much Opinion,
Declares Minister
“The great difficulty today is that
there is entirely too much opinion
instead of conviction. Even in the
fc,>called Christian world there are
doubts about the divinity of Christ
and the inspiration of the word of
Cod,” said Rev. George A. Miller In
his Sunday morning sermon at First
Christian church.
“Paul, assured of the resurrection,
admonishes each one to steadfastness
in the Christian faith. If we have a
settled conviction that there is an
other life, and have accepted Christ
and lived according to His law, the
victory over death is certain. It is
not an opinion but a settled convic
tion.
“Some even go so far as to have
no settled conviction as to the cer
tainty of the resurrection. Is there
any wonder that so many are not
‘steadfast, unmovable?’ The man of
opinions in any walk of life accom
plishes hut very little. Opinions have
never built up society in state or
church. Conviction, and steadfast
ness in that conviction, has been the
great power to transform the world.”

“Stick to Your Jobs,” Is
Advice of Rev. King
If the men would stick to their
jobs they would receive higher wages,
according to Itev. W. D. King in his
sermon at Central Park Congrega
tional church on the subject “Hold
ing On.”
"One of the greatest causes of loss
in many of the activities of life is
lack of stability,” he said, “Some
Industrial leaders tell us much larger
wages could be paid to the workers
if men would stick to their tasks until
they could do their work most effi
ciently. The turnover in labor is
therefore a large Item in the over
head expense. We find the same
principle true in church life; many a
pastor leaves his task before the op
portunity for his best and most effi
cient service is ever reached. How
often times the church officer or Sun
day school teacher becomes discour
aged and declines to continue, when
before him are the untouched fields
of greatest opportunity. So often, as
soon ns the novelty has worn off and
the hard pull commences, the tempta
tion to let loose and not surmount the
difficulties Is welcomed, and great
blessing and growth to both the indi
vidual and the cause are thus lost.
“On the other hand, if we face the
most severe difficulties, the most ardu
ous tasks, perhaps mingled with
trials, sorrows and seemingly unsur
mountable obstacles, with not a
thought of letting loose, we receive
a taste of the joy of our Isjrd, our
souls are "purged of the dross of self
ishness, and our lives are bound to
bless those whose lives we touch. So
severe may have been the test that
one may sometimes have almost ques
tioned divine love; yet the greater
the test. If we have passed It safely,
the richer will be the blessing which
will flow from our lives; Just as the
one first to come to the mother who
has been bereft of her child, and in
her agony, is questioning <jod, is the
mother who has passed through a
similar experience, whoso very soul
has been tried In the lire of sorrow
and has kept her faith, comes with
her message of love and sympathy
and faith. In fact frdrn such lives
flow the love, the sympathy, the un
selfishness for which ths hungry
world is calling today.”

Supreme Purpose in
Life Urged by Pastor
“It is important that man should
have a supreme purpose In mind,”
said Rev. J. C. MahafTey in his Sun
day morning sermon at First United
Presbyterian church.
“God's purposes may not i>e
thwarted by the weakness of man.
Abraham disgraced his God and
Maker at times and yet he was a
greater man than Pharaoh, whom ho
deoeived. .Jacob was a greater man
than Esau, whom he cheated. In
fact, as we trace the purposes of God,
we are surprised at what God Is able
to do with the material He has to use.
"Paul says: 'I determined to know
nothing among you save Jesus Christ
and Him crucified.’
“Every arrh must have a keystone,
nnd many ft man falls as a builder
because be has no keystone, no domi
nating thought. Many a man is wan
dering atidut the world today, doing
nothing—l>ecau8e he has no sovereign
purpose.”

Effie Cherry Back oil Stage^This

\--- —
By I'Dltmal Service.
Cedar Rapids, la., March 9.—Wear
ing a gown in style 25 years ago,
when sl.e was a vaudeville star. Miss
Kffle Cherry today returned to the
stage—this time to further her can
didacy for mayor of Cedar Rapids.
Miss Cherry, who as one of the
three Cherry sisters became known
throughout the country when their
vaudeville act was received with
showers of vegetables, delivered the
first political nddress of her cam
paign at the Majestic theater.
She was dressed in a gown of black
silk, tlght.fittlng. and trailing the
floor. With it she wore a hat and
long black gloves of the period
matching the gown. Her appearance
drew hearty laughs from the su
dienes, but her brief speech was cor
dially received. In It she reasserted
her stand in favor of a 9 o’clock cur
few law for Cedar Rapids.
"The boys and girls are entitled to
a better chance in life," she said.
"The curfew will give them that
chance by keeping them off the
streets at all hours of the night.”
She turned to a small boy In the
audience and asked:
"What does your father say when
you get home at 11 o’clock?”
The hoy, somewhat abashed, re
plied:
"Dad don't say nothing. He don't
get in until 11:30.”
Miss Cherry also pledged herself
to break up swearing In public and
said she would assure Cedar Rapids
the purest drinking water It ever had.
I Adele Garrison j
^ “My Husband’s Love” ^
Panic Seized Madge an She Searched
for tier Car.
Panic, stark and nerve-racking,
seized me as I realized that nowhere
could I seq the motor car which had
brought me from Mrs. Bird’s home,
and whicii the driver has said would
lie waiting at the curb on Lexington
avenue, somewhere within two
blocks of the department store from
which 1 had telephoned Alfred Dur
kee.
What could have happened? I
asked the question frantically of my
self when 1 had made ray second
trip up and down the crowded
thoroughfare trying to make my
searching glances at the cars along
the curb as unobtrusive as possible.
The driver was no-ordinary taxi man,
but little Mrs. Bird's own trusted em
ploye. He would not fail to keep
an appointment with me unless
something of the utmost Importance
had intervened.
Conscious that I would attract at
tention if I continued my parade up
and down I walked into the wide
entrance of the department store,
made a hurried trip down one aisle
and up another and emerged again
into the sheltered space just outside
the doors where 1 flattened myself
against the wall and waited won
dering what it were best to do.
Could the man have met with an
accident? Not a serious one I told
myself answering my own question,
or there would be traces of the ex
citement' which surrounds any un
usual happening in the city streets.
I had spent but a comparatively
short time in the store when I had
telephoned, and the routine of traf
fic had been the same when I left
as when I entered. There must be
some other reason neither so tragic
as an accident nor so imp*»tant as
a failure to find parking space for I
had observed a number of vacant
places along the curb.
I scored myself Irritable for not
having foreseen some such eontre
tempts. I could have given the man
directions to come to the gifty-ninth
street corner where I had told Alfred
Durkee to meet me. But he had no
other instructions than to wait for
me along this street and I did not
wish to leave the vicinity without
finding out where he had gone.
Luckily Alfred understood that he
was to wait for me indefinitely on
Fifty-ninth street. But a glance at
my wrfst watch told me that time,
the most nocesShry of all commodities
to me at this juncture, was gallop
ing along with headlong rapidity.
With a feeling that I would he
hanged no matter which way I de
cided, X moved into the street, re
solving to take the first taxi over
to Fifty-ninth street, and come back
to hunt up my own driver .after I
should have seen Alfred.
I already had raised my hand to
signal an approaching one, when
from a little way down the street a
ramshackle, old fashioned limousine
put on a spurt of speed and swung
into the curb In front of me while
its driver swung open the door.
"Taxi lady," he said hoarsely then
in an undertone, and in far different
accents he muttered "Get in quick."
I looked at him twice before 1
obeyed for X found it hard to recog
nize Mrs. Birds rather natty driver
in the man who spoke to me. But
[ saw that it was Indeed the same
youth although he had enveloped
himself in a big shaggy overcoat,
and a rough cap whteh changed his
apiiearance to h surprising degree,
and I hastily stepped Into the car
Instinctively shrinking hack in its
depths as ho slammed the door shut,
and with a quick, searching glance
behind him guided the car deftly Into
the stream of traffic and turned the
corner track toward the bridge.
"When we get out of this you can
tell me where you want to go next,"
ho threw hack at me without turn
ing Ills head and f took (lie hint, re
maining absolutely silent while he
twisted around corners and up and
down streets until finally lie emerged
Into a quiet side street several blocks
north of where we bad started and
with the car still In motion and hia
eyes restlessly searching the streets,
asked me wtiat was my next stop.
"South side of Fifty-ninth street,
east of Broadway as near to Colum
bus Circle as you can park," X said,
repeating the direction I had given
Alfred Durkee.
"I’ll cut through the park then."
he said, evidently speaking to himself,
and in a few moro minutes we were
driving swiftly Into winding
thoroughfares of Central l’ark com
ing out at tlm Seventh avenue exit,
and turning to the rigid along Fifty
ninth street.
"Are you going to watt here long?"
lie asked, as he slowed speed behind
a street car and I was sure 1 de
tected uneasiness In his voice.
"only to pick tip a man who Is
to meet us here," I answered.
"Let s hope he'a here," lie mut
tered to himself, hut I caught the
words, and the hearing of them did
not allay my swiftly mounting lin
en slttess.

Circus Stunts Win .
Favor at World
ftorses and dogs in two acts scored
hits at the new World show yester
day. The Hanneford family consists
of several circus riders and half a
dozen ring horses, with George Hanne
ford himself, a great riding clown.
The audiences yesterday enjoyed the
act as though it had been given un
der the "big top’’ on a sizzling sum
mer night with pink lemonade and
peanuts.
A couple of remarkable dogs com
pose the principal part of the other
act. They can stand on one paw with
their bodies up In the air and do other
remarkable canine tricks.
Evans, Mere and Evans are three
youths who bring to life Tom {lawyer
and “lluck" Finn and produced some
pleasing vocalization and comedy.
As a versatile entertainer, John
Uurke was right there. He sang,
danced and juggled and did all of
them well. Mary Drew and company
is something in the “strong man" act
line except that Mary hferself does the
feats of strength, lifting the other
two hefty members of the company
with one arm and carrying them
across the stage.
Walters and Stern, a coupla sales
men, put on some nonsensical songs
that added a happy spice of mirth to
the program.
Professor Arthur Hays caused the
organ jo reverberate melodiously to
the strains of “Whose Izzy Is He?"
The photoplay Is of unusual Inter

problem of the lazy wife who thinks
all she needs to do is to have personal
charm for her husband, who lies late

even flirts when hubby isn't around.

to God, Pastor Urges
God must be supreme In your
heart and your business must be
dedicated to His service, declared Kev.
F. II. King in his morning seimon
yest'iday at I'nlted Brethren church,
speaking on "A Three-Fold Chord."
(lis text v,..s, "Simon, son of Jonas,
Invest Me more than these?” John
21:15.
"The text furnishes a standard by
which we may test tlie genuineness
of our love for our Savior,” he said.
"It is a gauge by which we can do
tect the impurities in our affection.
Whatever 'these' may refer to, it In
unworthy and unacceptable to Him.
"One interpretation Is that Peter
was loved more than the others. Was
he not tlie first called? First to win
another? Was he not at the mount of
transfiguration? Did lie not hear the
Father say, 'This is My beloved
Son?’ Was it not Peter who spoke
while Jolin and James fell to the
ground? Did he not walk on the
water? Did he not lift up the sword
in defense of his I.ord in the garden?
Did He not say, 'Go tel! My disciples
and Peter?’ Yet that question was
not to lie answered this way, that he
stood above the others, for he that is
chlefest shall become the servant of
all.
“Another Interpretation Is, he loved
more than his companions. He left
his companions first to follow Jesus.
He ran away from them all to reach
the sepulcher, plunged out of the ship
into the sea to reach Him first.
"This same question might be good
for us to ask ourselves today. How
many love their companions, amuse
ments, professions, callings, better
than their Lord. We are to love our
friends, but not above our Lord.
“Another interpretation is. ‘Do
you love me more than these imple
ments of your occupation? There are
the boats, the nets, the fishers'
clothes. He was fond of his occupa
tion, and on the evening before he
had led them all out fishing. Now
comes the supreme test. Do you
love Me more than your business
profession, calling, and would you if
called leave all and follow Me? Would
you abandon all for His glory? Mill
you answer these questions? Are
you conceited? Are you bigoted?
Is God supreme in your heart? Is
you business God's business and dedi
cated to TIis service and glory? If
so then you may with Peter answer,
‘Lord, Thou knowest that I love
Thee.*"
