Keen on!" , Tlicn Lieutenant Ednln Tliorp Van Dusen, 5131 Morris street, German town, mortally wounded by a bursting ' shell, plunged face forward on the bat tlefield. Tho ','boys" went on to victory. This Is one of many Btorles of re markable bravery told by wounded Phlladelphlans and rennsyh anions who havo, arrived from overseas at tho Camp Mcado convalescent hospital. They are heroes of the Iron Division Twenty elghth) and the Liberty DMbIoii (Seventy-ninth), and inatty- other organiza tions with which Phlladelphlans fought. Another story of bravery Is told by STohn Connors, of ' PottsUUe, Pa. It concerns a Catholic chaplain, Lieutenant John P. Mulligan, of the Sixty-first In fantry, who went through shrapnel and machine-gun bullets to rescue a wounded soldier.. As he stopped to raise the officer, a Bhell exploded near, killing the chtplaln and the soldier. Hero's Mother Located The mother of Robert BUllngham, one tt tho wounded Phlladelphlans, was lo cated today by the Evenino Public LEDonn. The youthful soldier used to live at E907 Addison street, but his family moved and letters Bent by him to the Addison street addreES were returned. BUllngham was In a blue funk when he reached this country, with Christmas near, and found hq could not locato his mother and sister. To bo gassed, wounded and shell shocked and Invalided home and then not find any family waiting for him with open arms was "pretty tough luck," he said. Mrs. BUllngham was located ht 221 South Sixtieth street. When the mother nas told her boy was back In this coun try she dropped Into a chair and wept with joy. Then she telephoned to her daughter, Margaret, who Is night supervisor at the Children's Homeopathic Hospital, Frank lin and Thompson streets. Tho daugh ter left almost Immediately for Camp Meade, so that her hero-brother ma,y bo homo for his Christmas dinner. Itobort's older brother, Arthur, died during tho Influenza epidemic. The sol dier does not know of his brother's death. BUllngham Is a member of the 110th Infantry.- Ho was put out of tho fight ing at Chaeau-Thlerry by gas, shrap nel and a high cxploslvo shell. Lieutenant Van Dusen was 'the son of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel B. Van Dusen. He met death on September 30 In the heavy fighting along the Meuso river. He was an officer of tho 314th Infantry which received its training at Camp Meade. William L. House!, a member of the regiment, was within a few feet of Lieu tenant Van Dusen when tho officer was . killed. Knew He Warn Done l'or "Lieutenant Van Dusen was leading his company through a shower of shell and machine-gun bullets," said House), "when a Bbell burst near him. In an instant the lieutenant knew tho shell had scored against him. Tho men knew It, too. Ho turned and said, 'Well, boys, at last they've got mo. Keep on,' and then plunged face forward." Lieutenant Van Dusen was twenty four years old. He graduated from the Germantown Academy in 1910, from tho Lawrcncevllle School In 19 tl and Prince ton University In 1915. He was a mem ber of the Belfry Club, Germantown Academy's dramatlo organization, and of the Triangle Club, the Princeton dra matic club. Ho played on the football and baseball teams at Germantown Academy nine nt Princeton. After graduation he went Into the automobile tire business mjcl later was attached to the treasurer's oflke of the Klectrlc Storago Battery Company. When this country entered the war ho took special training In military drill and went Into tho first ofllccr' training camp at Fort Niagara, earning a com mission as lieutenant. Ho was sent to Camp -Meade and attached to the 314th Infantry. Later ho was promoted to the machine-gun company of the regiment , and after tho unit reached France acted - rh official Interpreter for n while', as he spoke French fluently. The young ofllcer was a direct descend nnt of Fieterson Van Dusen, Governor of New Amsterdam (New York city) In 3632. Ho was a member of the Prince ton Club of Philadelphia, the German town Cricket Club and tho Campus i Club of Princeton. I"ret Never Hesitated Connors, who told the storv ahnnt Father Mulligan, was wounded, but he lias nothing to Bay about his own part Jn tho war. "One of the bravest deeds I over eaw," lie said, "was performed by Father Mulligan. Father Mulligan saw a soldier lying wounded at a point where shrapnel was dropping all around and mnchlne-gurf bullets were whizzing, It was a veritable death spot and the men had to He low. Father Mulligan, who had been administering absolution to the dying and going about hearing confes sions, did not hesitate a minute. He went forward to bring back tho wounded ofllcer. As he stooped to lift the man, a. shell burst In front of him, killing both him and the ofllcer he tried to eave." It was because he was born In Italy on December 2B, twenty-five years ago, that Private Cataldl, one of the wounded soldiers at the base hospital, was ' christened Christmas Cataldl. Cataldl comes from Connellsvllle, Pa,, and Is a member of tho lGQtlt infantry. He was ,i 'hit by, a bit of shrapnel In the right leg on October 15, He is one of tljose who was brought across tho bcean on the i 'hospital ship Comfort. Cataldl's. Christ mas will not be us cneerful as other Chrlstmoses, because, he had nil the old folks around lilm them. He Is too weak os, yet to go liome to Connellsvllle, and it Is a little too far for his poople to make the trip to camp. But he Is mighty glad that ho got a chance to help Ills adopted country, and, grateful that he escaped' death. 1' Trolley Fures Greatly Reduced ' ..., . -lit,. 1a flAO ft! Thn Tn.l..

Tney Pretended n in i,i-i i. V...... ca sabbath, In theory ; yet, in practice, uiey found themselves emulating the continental Sunday. Things had already reached the point whero tho Church was not satisfied with tho day, whllo the ..u nun contemptuous or it. No one, priest or layman, was content with tho situation as it was. And no one. Christian or unchristian, Is today oxempt from the trammels of our nntl- i""" lu-ws, an snot tnrougn as tney are with Insincerity. Quickening of Process ."Suddenly came on the quickening of process of this dissolution. Suppose, ln this country, with Its hundred millions of mixed population, thero were myriads even one year ago whom we In this region did not glvo due credit to at still adherent to tenets and practices we thought wero obsolete This will never be so again. Red Cross Pageants and Liberty Loan parades have put upon the streets, to march and to look on, the most reticent heretofore, home-bodies. "Anxiety to scan casualty lists and lo read reports of their sons' doings over seas has- gained admission for the Sun day newspaper Into tho close-shuttered rooms of every most sequestered ham let. The exigencies of only a few days furlough home, or the admission as visi tors only on Sunday to the cantonments where boys wero training, havo taken parents there and brought their boys home visiting, both travelling without compunction on that day whereon they would not havo stirred formerly. Causes for Sunday Labor Tho need for workers ln munition plants and shipyards, the entcements of time and a half for over pay, tho feeling that their work was patriotic, these all have been causes for Sunday labor on the pa.rt of multitudes wfio never had bo wrought before. "All this at home; but moro among the men ln camp and most among those on the battlefield. Millions of men and women will return who never will 'keep Sunday" any more as they had once Interpreted that phrase. And they will be the leaders ln all lines of con duct. Theirs will be tho standard for their fellows' Imitation. All this was true, In marked degree, after tho Civil War. It will bo more so this time, and for this reason ; thoso who come liome now will como from having seen nnd lived tho continental Sunday. What Was Origin "But Just what was the origin of that frnm whlph those started to drift, half a century ago, who havo now arrived? If It was Bomethlng good in Itself; then they aro bad; If it was bad, they may have drifted forward with a tide, although against a current.

And It Is these wno are trying to preveni bucii Innocent things as Sunday concerts. Origin of Traditions "Tho point Is that, In the eastern portion of the United States, we have all been living under tho domination of a set of traditions which came original ly from two sources; tho Puritans and Scotch-Irish. Differing widely In many other things, these two wero at one In tho emphasis they laid upon tho Sab bath Day. They, and they alone, of all tho Christian world, called It the Sabbath. This nare Itself Is signifi cant ns showing wl ,t they thought the day to be. Their view of It wbb greatly different from that ever taken by the Lutheran, the' Roman Catholic and the Anglican world. But the Sabbatarian tradition, brought hither by those two groups, with a stern degree of per manency, has become deeply Impressed upon tho whole of this country. It Is this tradition tnat, is every year ucuuiiuhb less and less regarded. Is It not re markable, ln view of this fact, that, in splto of tho efforts of Sabbath Alliances und all tho other orders of that ilk, the drift of our tlmo has been awiy from that kind of observance. It never was normal; it always was hybrid. New Sunday Needed "The thing wo need In this connection Is a new nomenclature. We need a new ,..Tih n. new thlnir. But. first. we need the thine. We need a brand new klnd'of Sunday, l nave iraveieo eiiuumi, both at Tiomo ad abroad, to make com parisons. I havo lived long enough to not as many contrasts. I have, known tho Sabbatical gloom-day of boyhood. I havo known the Continental Sunday, having been In every Kuropean coun try. Latin and Slav, Norman and Teu .. t , ri- it only where It 1b. I ..,,',i nnf nnnrovo It here. But I want something better in us nicuu. ". American Sunday. "It Is high lime now for this new In stitution. The land Is In need of It. But, quite oh much, the Church haB need of It. The old kind made churchgolng natural. Indeed, It mode it almost compulsory. It did this bj' a sort of vacuum suction process. There was absolutely nothing else to do outside. That time Is past, The Church has been ln a position of special privilege. It seems not to have merited this. Coercion Is gone. It must stand now or fall on the otrength of Us own appeal. And I am glad, for this Is natural and'wholesome. drleTotjs Krrora "In the case of no other Institution ot such cardinal (mportance have errors to serious and so continuous been made regarding the grounds ot Us observance, mi.- ., irrlttVnlla nt thnflA Arrnrn la ihnt wlth-regard to the ground of compulsion on which Supday observance everj could feet, Tho mistake was In the relation Imagined of the Fourth. Commandment, t ttw concInoV,of! th ChrUttaft werld. EVENING PUBLIC LEDGEEr-PElADELPHlA SATURDAY, This should present no difficulty, for there Is no such relation. "We aro not dealing llh tho Hebrew Sabbath, cither the day of the week, which was, and still Is, Saturday; nor with the mode of that observance, which was first Sabbatical nnd then. In Prot estantism only, and there only In part Puritanical. The early Christians not only changed the day, but they, far more radically, changed Its motif. "If I were going to make Sunday laws, and If I would outline in doing so the right policy for tho Church, they would all be positive. -Not one should bo negative. I would cease to prohibit and begin to provide. Has the Church not too long pursued the opposite prac tice? Church peoplo have Bought to make the day prevail simply by enact ing prohibitions against work and play. Is It not Incumbent more upon good people to pay what ought, than what ought not, to bo done? Does not the same obligation lie to provide tho right fonn of rest as to proscribe the wrong kind? It is they who ought to be en couraging, not discouraging, these Sun day concerts. "Suppose the wholo world took the Church at Us word I Suppose every-body-jman, woman nnd child In this city camo to Sunday sen-Ice one fore noon and then said; 'Now you have us on your hands. We are your guests, your wards, your children. Will you let us go and play, now that wo have per formed our devotions? If so, whero and how? It Is strange the Ghurch does not see that the whole problem of amusement comes ln under the heading of rest. The Great Netil "There Is need both for a saner con ception of rest nnd for a more cheer ful view of religion; thtjt Is, 'far more cheer ln tho whole observance of this day. There Is precedent for this latter to bo found, even by those who seek their sanctions In tho oldest cults. The old-time spirit of Sabbath, and the early spirit of Sunday, alike were Joyous. Tho rest aimed at was re-creation. It was the building up, not only of the soul but of the mind and body by pleasure In worship and by play after worship. It ought still to bo tho same. "But this means that the whole day Is one day. Says your pseUdo reformer: 'You may do things that aro not hurtful In themselves, that do not cause others to work In ministering to your enjoy ment and that do not Interrupt seriously the religious observance of the day." But that treats you as outsiders. This day Is your day. Nor does that pro gram take him very far. The Church must do moro than merely allow or for bid. It must encourage, provide and en Join. Tho troublo Is, for many, that they simply fritter away the day in aimless fashion, through sheer lack of Initiative and Invention. They need help, not hindrance. "It Is not enough to open tho church doors ono or two hours a day and say; 'Do thus for this period," nnd then, for tho rest of the day, provide nothing. This Is all the moro strange In view ot the Church's aim at social BerIce, bo called, all tho other days of tho week. Why Is there not the same enthusiasm for constructive and creative planning and providing for tho other six hours as well of this day as on the other six days of this week? Why do they not do for six-sevenths of this day what they do assiduously for six-sevenths of each week? In shprt, why aro they not among the foremost to approve theso Sunday concerts by the orchestra?" 'Warns Jersey Institutions Trenton. Dec. 21.
