.._.............
It was “Women Only" at the Ta-
bernacle and they were there in
large numbers last night. They
braved a hard storm. and they got
a red-blooded, manly sermon for
their pains. The topic was "Fool
Women." Dr. George Wood Ander-
son said that women Were foolish
to confine themselves to home even
though it is Christian, and neglect
public affairs. Their interest should
be everywhere their boys and .girls
go. The unbridled desire for social
life. leading often to extravagance
and debt and moral ruin was fool~
ish, and gave wrong ideals to the
children. His eulogy of the mothers
of the soldier boys was beautiful
and impressive. He urged upon
them the highest ideals of goodness.
saying that the highest conception
of God a man ever gets is from a
good woman. Mrs. _ Frederick J.
Morrison led the singing and Mrs.
Anderson was at the piano. The us-
ual form of invitation was given
and many responded.
At the same hour Bob Hartley
and Homer Grimes conducted a
men’s meeting in the South Nor-
walk M. E. Church which was well
attended. The men were favored
with the popular negro spirituais
which were heartily applauded.
Hartley gave a straight—forward im-
pressive talk to husbands and fa-
thers, speaking as he said from the
young man’s point of‘vlew. who is
watching closely the life of \ every
man heknoos. whether ltbe his
own or another boy’s father.
In the afternoon service the prea-
cher contrasted . vividly ‘the earnest
spirit of GM with our indifference
and neglect? tom the first three
chapters of Mark's gospel'he‘ pic-
tures the intense activity of Jesus
by day and by night. from one min-
istry to another, including more and
more towns, and stirring the inter-
est of the people so that as in Mark
8: 20. the multitudes pressed upon
him and he could scarcely find op-
portunity to eat. and hlsgfrlends had
to holdhim back from his task. But
the disciples? Even when the Mas-
ter faces betrayal (Mark 14: 41).
they sleep. With the revival ready
to break with power upon the entire
city. it seems as if the people are
asleep. He spoke of evidence that
the young people were responsive to
an earnest Christian message. yet so
many older ones are indifferent to
the deeper spiritual needs of the
community. It is possible that Nor-
walk. with a g at rival right in its:
grasp now will eliberately let it
slip from its fingers by continuing
to place the Kingdom of.God sec-
ondary to many another interest?
Everybody who now neglects the
Crusade is betraying Christ into the
hands of his enemies. When the
