The Derirnnd I.nwn Parties.

The Rev. Mr. Strouse who IS now
preaching some very fOrci0le sermons IN
This city, Is quoted ~ saying that the
lawn party is a child of the devil, or words
TO that erect. We beg leave 20 diner with
Ar. Sir0use on this proposition, and as a
worldly man, one who has chummed with
sin. and who has been 90 me dance from
start 20 finish, We SHAH insist that the
devil vas never present al any lawn party
which We attended. He might nave had
hts agents there. and. for argument 8
Sal e. we are willing % admit that we
were representing him IN those days when
we attended lawn parties but We DO not
believe that the devil ever planned organ
lied or executed a lawn party
When we see church mem9ers-W wives
and mothers. sweethearts and sisters
giving their time and work 10 push a
lawn party TO success TO see 70 II that the
proceeds 20 for some charity, We are
rather Inclined 20 believe mat The devil
Is not bossing the job. Mr.. Strouse Is GER
ta.uly entitled 20 his opinion as we are
certainly entitled 10 ours ana so we de-
sire 10 70 on record as being. IN FAVOR OF
lawn parties and all such places where
the amusement and refreshments are
harmless. The devil generally presides
over beer gardens. but We nave never yet
seen his majesty at church social on the
ereensward-Danvill Bee.
