THICK FOG
SPOILED
PAGEANT

London, Nov. liking Charles and
Queen Amelia OF Portugual passed In
procession through the streets of Lon
don today and had luncheon at the Guild
hall as the guests OF the lord mayor and
corporation.
As a pageant the royal progress
through the lamplt streets OF the city
could not be regarded by even the most
enthusiastic as a success. The opaque
fog, which at some parts OF the route
was so dense that IL was impossible TO
see more than 20 yards ahead. spoiled
the overhead decoration, and the troops
lining the route and escorting the
sovereigns hid their bright uniforms
under great coats.
The crowds were not large, but nothing
was lacking in the warmth of the re-
ception accorded To their majesties.
Addresses were presented to them by
the local authorities at various polnI
along the route. one OF these was
typical Of all. IL neatly referred to Queen
Amelia as follows:

TWO KINDS OF CHRISTIANITY.

With the above headline for text
the \ lbany Herald proceeded recently
to deliver sermon upon the late At
Ianta revival wherein $4,000 was ex-
pende and suggested that such sum
devoted to charity might have been
expended to better advantage. Just
now the subject is of interest and the
Time-Recorder reproduces the Her
AIDS article, which is as follows:
can Atlanta minister, Rev. CO.. Har
ris, pastor of the Universallst church,
preached a sermon on Sunday IN
which he severely criticised recent
widely advertised revival in that city,
asserting that the extravaganza which
charac erized the meetings was sinful
and declaring that if the same money
had been placed in the hand of the
earnest charitable organizations of the
city to be expended in the providing
of food for the hungry, medicines for
the sick and clothing for the destiiutes
a far greater work would have been
accomplished for the advancement of
Christ's kingdom on earth.
Generally speaking, and without
reference to whatever conditions may
exist IN Atlanta, we agree with the
Universalist minister that many Chris
tian communities mislnterpret the oft
repeated scriptural injunction to be
generous in giving to the Lord.
$50 where we will In this enlihtened
land, we will see hungry and miser-
ably clothed men, women and child
rem in the very shadow of imposing
piles of brick and stone whose tower
ing spires point impressively heaven
ward. We see the sick, the lame and
the blind fighting the bitter battle of
life against odds which seem too
crushing to be overcome, and raise
our eyes from such sights as these
to see Christian organizations indulg-
ing in what can be truthfully designat-
ed by no other tea m than that employ
ed by the Atlanta diyine-extrava-
gance.
"The Christianity of warm clothes
and nourishing food carries ten thou
sand times further than the brand o.
Christianity which finds expression il
osten aiious worship in fashionable
churches and the preaching of deeply
impressive sermons by eloquent theo-
| logians.
The secular world is very critical o
Christianity, and does not form i'll
opinions from the outside or inside o.
churches, the length of a preacher
coattails or the solemn cast of coun
tenance of faithful churchgoers.
looks deeper, and if Christian people
were as faithful In the alleys of on
cities where poverty is no stranger; Oh
the highways where lniquity openly
walks, and in the novels of vice whero
remorse prays without the cheering
presence of hope to point to bette
thingE-if in these places Christian
people were seen as often as in on
churches, there would be less neet
for enlarged prisons, additional crimi
nal courts and houses of reform.

as thick as the skin on fea-which i

nothing from those who want to SET
