The following comment is from the
Breaker, Long Beach, Cal: THE lee
ture delivered by Rev. J. B. Koehne
was a revelation. We had expected
from the title to hear some kind of a
talk" on the follies usually following
the use, or rather the misuse, Of sud-
denly acquired wealth; therefore the
magnificent effort we did hear was a
revelation, because unexpected. This
truth was traced through history, stage
by stage, and Illuminated by the lee
turer in bursts of oratorical eloquence
that electrified by their splendor.'
