CROOKED POLICEMAN SHA 1 Yesterday was a gala day at the First Methodist Episcopal church. Twelfth and Taylor streets. It was an ' occasion of more than ordinary moment for various reasons. In the first place six children, ranging in are from a few months to 10 years, were baptised by the pastor. Dr. Frank Loveland. assisted by his wife. Following this came what Dr. Loveland termed the "best and great est Christmas present I have ever re ceived." It was the presentation of s class of 3 for membership In the rhurch. Pome brought their, letter from other churches, but the vast majority Joined on confession of. faith. It was a complete surprise to the pastor snd Bishop Richard J. Cooke, who was present.

Greens, asked permission -to make an announcement. He then called upon Miss Alice A.

Bishop Zs Surprised. The announcement and gift figur atively took Dr. loveland and Bishop Cooke off their feet, the bishop ex claiming, as the yountf people marched about the chancel, "This is one of the greatest sights I have seen In all my ministry." The class had been sr- ranged try the assistant pastor and ' members of the various young people's clssses of the Sunday school. The evening service was an un usual one. The large edifice was . crowded with people who cams not ' only to hear (he Christmas music, but also to listen to the great monologue sermon by Dr. Loveland on "Dickens' Christmas Carol." The music conslst ' ed of the rendition of a number of , French, English, German, old Venetian ., and modern carols by the full chorus choir, mixed and male quartets and a . solo by A. Musgrove Roberts. Mrs. Fred Blgelow Newton presided at iho organ. History of Carols. . By way of Introduction to his ser men. Dr. Loveland said that" prior to ... the fifteenth cetnury the church gave i. Itself to the rendition of chants. With the coming of the fifteenth and six teenth centuries, folk songs began to take the place of the chants .and soon the churches burst forth into the : great carols. These began In southern . France, then went Into Italy, then back Into Germany, up In the Scandi . navlaa country where it developed . and then into Scotland, Wales and ' Ireland. England has over 1300 carols snd Germany more than 700. Many of ' the great singers of renown, said Dr. Loveland, once were carol singers in : the streets Of Germany or France. (.When these carols came into the churches, said the speaker, they natur , ally wove themselves about Christmas time. It waa Dickens, taking up the Idea of these Christmas carols, which caused him to write the great stock known as "Dickens' Christmas Carol." Dr. Loveland then told the story. He did not repeat it word for word, nor attempt to, but monologued the story in his own style to the great de light of the big audience. ,Jn the morning Bishop Cooks spoke on the relation of Christianity to the , present . war and emphasized the - thought hat the war was a result of the teaching of the materlallstlo sci ence for the' past decade and over emphasizing of the law of the sur vival of the fittest. When men 'be- ' corns obsessed with the idea that God ,1s on the side of the heavy battalions 'wo can expect Just such ' a war as this. - God is only on the side of the heavy battalions when thsy are on the side of right. 21 Do Soinidlheiinni Disappears!
