'pllEItR ts cause for great rejoicing

Philadelphia.
All Protestant nVnomlnflflotij ore
renrwenlcii among those who are work'
Ing hard to carry the Oospel of Jesus
Chriii to men mid tro'men who have
nevtr publlcally cmtessed their belief
nut faith in the Tledeemer.
There is no newnip that those who
are engaged In thin tooifc may flnd
tnany trlnM In tftlr paths.
But It it through trials that we grow
strong. Eiery trial leads to fuller
growth in life. ,Vo man ever overcomes
one difficult) Without being more brara
Hid more competent to meet the greater
pioblems that come to htm.
Therefore, as Christians, men and
teamen of the churches should welcome
the oppoi lunltlcs thul have come to
them.
The London Methodist, In a r-ecenl
article (it which church members were
urged to greater activity In souUsav
ing, said:
"We have the ptarl of great price
to offer men, and shame upon us that
we are sluggish in discharging our
trust!"
If the growth in pergoiwit tcorfc In
Philadelphia continue ns it has during
tho last week, the church members and
preachers should be rejoicing.
May there be no cause for shame
among Christ's disciples In the Quaker
City because of the stn of "putting off."

NEW YORK PASTORS
UNANIMOUS IN THEIR
REQUEST TO SUNDAY
"Believed Almost Every
thing He Said, and Be
lieved Absolutely," Writes
' t nQirmt, -.4- fill i,4,-..f
UUlllllUll Ul WU V I011UI3.
By HEV. DR., S. EDWARD YOUNG
t'ontor of tho Dcdfonl I'rcnhytorlan Cliurch,
Nostranj avenui ami Donn trt, Drcioklyn,
clinlrmin of the 20(1 Nvw York clly nrfocln-rs
who visited the Sunday mectlngn In Phila
delphia. The New York preachers capitulated to
"Billy" Sunday. They believed almost
everything he snld, and they believed him
absolutely. On tho return trip they voted,
each tralnload separately, unanimously to
make all possible effort to bring him to
New York.
Landing In Philadelphia was like visit
ing a national political convention, only
reservations ahead nnd special street cars
counted; but the atmosphere was unllko
that of the mighty party assemblages.
Wo found everybody In Philadelphia
ready to talk religion.
The whole city is under tho spell. A
number of our ministers were averse to
Sunday und his methods until they sat
in tho tabernacle All are with him now,
heart nnd soul. What a testimony this is!
Preachers are trained to tho serious duty
of discriminating and forming Individual
opinions and contending for these against
all comers. The responsibility of so doing
is Impiessed upon ministers by their en
tire courso of education nnd experience.
Just try any single proposition on a largo
group of clergymen of various denomina
tions, such ns went from New York to
hear "Billy" Sunday! Thoy will divide
oft (jnd belabor ono another courteously
and llrmly with nrguments. Not so In
this particular Instance.
CAN'T BE DOUBTED TEN MINUTES.
I confess to a strange feeling of tfio
presence of a higher than human power
In thlH breaking down of prejudice before
this God-guided man. He Is too tre:
mendously In earnest, too fenrless, too
true to conscience nnd the supreme veri
ties of tho Gospel, too full of wholesome
humor and swoetness of soul, to be
doubted for 10 minutes at a stretch. One
feature we noticed Immediately the pon
derous machinery of a revlvnl little In
evidence those wearlBome icports and
fulsome acknowledgements of tho chair
man of the Committee on Arrangements,
Commute on House-to-House Canvass,
Committee on Politeness to Strangers.
Committee on Taking Off Women's Hats,
Committee on Smiles and Umbrellas, and
so forth and so forth.
'Bllly" Sunday Is the whole show, with
some visible staff-otllcerlng by Rode
heaver and "Ma" Sunday. This Is as it
should be. The hour you undertaka to
recognize publicly and Individually all
thoso who have helped to make the meet
ing a success, you arc sure to consume a
vast amount of time, bore tho people, and
Incidentally convoy the Idea that tho
workers nro -working for earthly glory.
What Phillips Brooks remarked Jf Moody
might appropriately be said of "Billy
Sunday, "That which Impresses me In
Moody Is his amazing common sense.
"SANCTIMONIOUSNESS" ABSENT,
Wo thankfully missed tho smack of
sanctimoniousness bo gonorally charac
teristic of a revival service the super
mundane tone of voice, tho "holier-than-thou"
vocabulary, the long-drawn prayers
and pious, though now nearly meaning
leas, phrases that did good work In other
days when they were coined In tho heat
of some spiritual movement. There Is
throughout the enormous concourse of
auditors, tho confident spirit of those who
have triumphed over criticism and aro
certain of winning out.
If at first you are offended by the ex
altation of "Billy." you let this merge
Into his exaltation of Christ. The preach
b did not observe much slang or extrava
gant speech. To be exact, Sunday has
less of these than on former occasions.
This dropping out of colloquialisms and
slangy phrases characterises, I under
stand, the progress of his campaign In
each city. He reaches a point where no
further attracting of attention Is needed.
He then lets go the simple, solemn,
righteous thunder of his soul. JW lets
God 'speak through him- We become
conscious of the heavenly cooperation,
"BILLY'S" VIEWPOINT.
After all, "Billy" Sunday's theological
vlowpolnt Is about that of the average
evangelical preacher In America. Not e.
very considerable proportion of tho min
isters of tho principal Protestant denomi
nations preach the conclusions of the
most liberal-minded scholars of Europe
and America.. Whether this s 111 or well
for tha cause, It is ft fact. . Possibly there
Is something In broad, scientific theolo
gical study that cools the ardor of preach
ing. At any rate, men who are flaming
fires In the hnd of God are apt to be
orthodox, as that term 1 used today In
these parts.
Beyond question, pastors and laymen
and Jaywomei) In tfw York will keep urg
ing until "Billy" Sunday his way
clear tp com to this city. What a cam
paign that will ps I He will mulre, If
hu voice can carry so far, a tabernacle
holding 40,000 or (0,000, may be on the
gallery system, with plenty pf new-
theatre light stepless stairways leading
to the ' sawdust trail " Under the leader

CONGREGATION TO MOVE
First Baptist Church of Qermantown
to Change Quarters.
The congregation of tho First Baptist
Church of Germantown has made ar
rangements to move from the present
church, on Price street east of Germnn
town avenue, where it has worshiped for
62 years, to a new site situated between
tho Wayne Avenue Baptist Church and
the Second Baptist Church of German
town. Tho board of trustees will build a more
modern edifice as soon as the Halo Is ef
fected. A Negro Methodist Episcopal con
gregation, of which the Itev. J. T, Flet
cher Is pastor, Is said to be the pios
pectlvo purchaser of tho old property.
The First Baptist Church, of which the
nev. Dr. Thomas S. Hamson Is now pas
tor, was organized In February, 1852, at
Fellowship Hall, on Armnt street. In
November of the same year It moved to
the pretent Rite. Its membership during
the first year incicased from SO to 1C0.
Nearly 400 members are enrolled now. Its
membership was foimerly much larger,
but the establishment of other Baptist
churches In the community caused sev

Manoah, father of Samson, upon tearnino that a boy was to ba born into
his home, felt at once the responsibility for that boy' praner Irafnltip. Head
the story of Samson's life and von. will find that his father observed the
three main principles involved in "bringing up boys," namely, prayer, pre

His prayer is in verse 8: "Teach vs what we shall do unto the child
that shall be lorn." That child had a right to be well'borncall it eugenic

ACTIVITIES OF ALL DENOMINATIONS
REV. DOCTOR HAINES,
"BOY SCOUT PARSON
OF GERMANTOWN"
Pastor- of First Unitarian
Church an Indefatigable
and Successful Worker in
the Cause.
"The Boy Scout Parson of German
town" Is the .title tho Itev, Dr. Oscar
H. Hawes, C.'Sl Greene street, pastur of
tho Flist I'nitnrlnn Church, Uormnntown,
has acquired In the more than four yenrs
he has been lilentlllcil with the movement.
He is u staunch und entlius'astlc support
er of the Hoy Scouts, nnd Is known to
virtually every Hoy Scout In Gcrninntown.
The attention of tho minister was first
attracted to the movement In 1910, when
Director of Public Safety George D. Por
ter, now Scout Commissioner of Philadel
phia, launched tho plan In tho city. The
wist possibilities of the Boy Scouts Imme
diately won his lecogn thin, and lie waj
one of the Hist to enter tlio work of form
ing troopi.
From thu members of the Nlcetown
I!o3' Club tho Itev. Doctor Ilnwcs picked
a troop of scouts; this organisation, Intur
designated ns Tioop 3S, was one nf the
Hist to be organized during the llrst mo
months of the movement In tho city. 11
is now regarded as one of the stioiigc.it
tioops In Philadelphia, nnd Is most favor
ably known for Its ntllclency nnd unusual
nctlvlty. During tho Hoy Scout field d.iy
at tho Philadelphia Baseball Park last
summer it presented one of tho most In
tel ostlng novelties of tho afternoon by
pcnuunently assembling a 28-foot bridge
in two hours-a bridge which, tested
Inter, suppoited the weight of 50 men
The Itev. Doctor Hawes founded,
drilled, fostered and encouraged the
troop for three full yenrs ".Scoutmaster
Hawes" was his ofllclal title. A little
over a year ago his duties ns p.iator
compollcd hint to resign IiIh active posi
tion In fnvor of Ills assistant, Fred H.
Stewart, who nt the time his commission
was Issued was the youngest scoutmas
ter in the city. The Itev. Doctor Hawes
still letnlns his title of scoutmaster-nt-lnrge
nnd attends meetings nnd nccom
panies tho troop on hikes, although tlio
details of tho woik are under tho super
vision of Scoutmaster Stewart.
"During the 20 years I Iiuvo spent
among boys I have found no other move
ment which creates Rtieh Interest nnd
holds the boys together ns does the
Boy Scout movement," he said. "It
tonds to create ambition among boys,
and a spirit of the light sort of Inde
pendence which comes from a knowledge
of how to toko cure nf theinHelvps out
doors, Obedience to scout laws has re
sulted In a leniaikable mornl develop
ment In tho troop nnd tho outdoor life
Is of real physical henelit. Their In
terest In school studies bus been nd
vanced by compelling them to work out
the various pioblems assigned In scout
work."
In the December campaign of tho Boy
Scouts for IM.000 the Bov. Doctor Hawes
took nn active part. As captain of Team
20, he added one of the largest sums to
the treasury, more than J17Q0.
