whajt he termed the "surprise of his
'life.!'' at the morning service Sunday,
whefi Just before the close of the serv
ice knd atfer he had preached on of
-hi (most powerful sermons on the
subject "Sunshine and Shadows," 'the
ReV; Henry T. Greene, assistant pastor,
stepping to. the platform, called the
names of thope who had signified their
intention of joining the church.
lh all, 45 came to the altar and they
were received" into the church by Dr.
Loyeland and the members of his of-
'fic!al board. It was only two months
age that 63 united with the church one
Sunday morning. "
At least one conversion followed; the
moaning service. A middle aged man.
lef : the church after the sermon only
to- return a few minutes later, and,
seeking Dr. Loveland, told him a
clunge must ake place in his life. In
. back room with the pastor and one
or two others, he "found God," he de
clared a few minutes later, when he
emerged smiling.
Ih the evening Dr. Loveland preached
on "America's- Uncrowned Queen," the
late Frances 13. Willard being his in
spiration. The local chapter of Tthe
W. C. T. TJ. attended in a body and
llrk Jennie Kemp, president of the
state organization, sat on the platform
anc addressed the audience briefly- at
the conclusion of the sermon. ,
"It-is only wlthiri the last 50 years
that woman's ship has had a chance
to fcet out onto the sea of humanity,"
said Dr. Loveland. "Today women
everywhere are doing the work which
20 years- ago was done by young men.
Frances Willard has done a great deal
for the cause of temperance, but she
has) done vastly more for the cause of
womanhood and ft is to her the women
of America should bow in admiration
iana appreciation of her matchless
worth and' work.
The temperance cause never made
. any progress In the world's history un
til (Frances "Willard with Jesus Christ
and American womanhood entered t-he
lfa4s against it. Let me tell you before
1930 is rung out you will see national
prohibition in this country. When the
motherhood of America and Kurope
awake it will mean' an end of war.
When mothers say their boys cannot
go into the trenches to be shot for a
mere slip of paper, war will forever
ceijse. If Frances "Willard could come
bark, she would see an end to child
-lator which damns our brotherhood
anl an end to white slavery which
da Tins our sisterhood."

no referendum if the people who be
