New Auditorium in Orange street by
the Mems League and Templars of the
First Reformed Church last night vas
a success. The performance was fol-
lowed by a dance. The amateur Gomez

songs. Especially good was the singing
of F. p. Keast, Joseph a. Collins and T.

to release his foot, called for help.
Young Lodge and Pimm, with the aid
of Fflippo Cartogiione, the flagman,
tried to release him, but their efforts
failed, even when they unlaced his shoe.
The fagman, who saw by this time
that the train was only a few hundred
feet away, grabbed his lantern, wrapped
his red flag around it, ran up the track
and succeeded in bringing the train to
a stop just as it reached the edge of
the crossing.

question by asking further: "Seven
times?"
mo. not seven times replied Jesus
but seventy times seven meaning, of
course, that there should be no limit to
the number of times that forgiveness
should be granted.
Now. here's the point: If Christ, who is
sinless. is ready to forgive sin. how
much more should we. who are full of
sin, be ready to pardon our fellow
sinners.
Next time that YOU are tempted to
pitch into some other man for peculiar
sin or shortcoming ask yourself if it isn't
true that you are down on that sin be-
cause 1t has shown it's head SO often in
your own life, and If you've conquered

conquer it. Give him another chance.
remembering that If you had been thrown
down and out for good and all when
YOU fell short you'd be a long way from
your ideal. which seems SO near. 1t may
not be much of an ideal. No doubt you
should have aimed higher. because ii
didn't cost you much of a struggle to
reach it, but who knows how hard the
other sinner fought to win out. and how
through tears and heartache he actually
conquered where you, put to the same
test, would have miserably failed?

1HE plans of Archbishop Keane

d given rise to much speculation

candidate is the Rt. Rev. John p. Car
roll. Bishop of Helena. who was formerly
head of the Catholic College at Dubunue
When successor to Bishop O'Conner as
rector of the Catholic University hero
some months ago was being discussed If
was believed that Bishop Carroll would
be given the post
In the present instance it is said Rshon
Carroll might be loath to leave his pres
ent place as Bishop of Helena, his do
cese being one of the most important
west of the Mississippi river.
The name of the Rt Rev Bishop Davis
of Davenport. Iowa. also has been men
toned. Bishop Davis is familiar with
cese and is warm friend of Archbishop
keane. There also is said to be bare
possibility of the selection of one of these
churchmen: Bishop O'Conneu of San
Francisco or Bishop O'Reilly of Peoria.

mateiy will become archbishop of the

parks have garnered other souls. Dur
ing the past few months there have been
many who have stated their desire to af-
filiate with the churches in the neighbor-

In these afternoon services the workers
in HamIne Methodist Episcopal Church
have been at the fore. Under the leader
ship of Rev. Charles f. Guthrie, the pas
tor, they have gathered with faithful
ness alike to that of the clanssof ancient
times. At Iowa Circle. at the engine
house in r street northwest between 9th
and 10th streets Rhode Island avenue
and 6tn street, 0 and 9th streets these
laymen have worshiped and have given
the message of God to pasSerS-by. some
of whom may possibly have never at
tended church service or at least have
heard 1t with any interest.
At the Rosedale Fairgrounds, in the
extreme northeast section of the city, the
attendances of Sunday afternoons have
been large. Here where during the sum-
mer afternoons the little folk OF the sec
ton assemble to enjoy the privileges of
playground afforded them through the
generosity of the Washington public the
services have been held each Sunday aft
ernoon with much success.
Rev. George A. Miller. pastor of the
Ninth Street Christian Church, and other
clergymen who are in charge of churches
in that section of the city have from time
to time spoken at this place. In these
meetings there has been a large number
of children at times, and more than one
Christian worker in attendance has
thought of the question. when will the
church come to a full realization Of the
fact that the biggest thing in the world
today is the child?''
From the psychologist with his scien-
tific training. the mother with her natu-
raj intuitions and the church with its in
spired revelations the testimony is unani-
heart is most open to spiritual truth and
the life most easily directed into the
channels of altruistic service. 1t is the
day of visions, of crystallizing ambitions.
and the thought has more than once APP
pealed to these workers in His vineyard,
the vision of Christ and fail to arouse
their ambition to extend His kingdom"
No one, it is said, can well estimate the
blessing that will come to the church of
today with the introduction of the young
into it.
Thus in this age of enlightenment. with
the children and their elders coming to
the King Of Kings as humble supplicants,
one may well listen to the verse of VAIN
wright on the sacrament:
Lamb Of God for sinners dying.
On Thy sacrifice relying.
When our purchase price we view
Grace and truth our hearts subdue.
ION Thy cross in Thee we suffered
When for us Thy self vast offered;
BY Thy blood now justified.
We unto the law have died.
BE these emblems. Lord. the token
OF Thy blood, Thy body broken;
May the truth of Calvary
Ever bind our hearts TO Thee"

various sections of the city have felt the
good of these Sunday afternoon sessions,
where, with the sky as roof and the
green sward below them, certain of those
who have Travelled along the path OF life
for years without hearing the call of the
church have suddenly found themselves
debating as to whether they should or
not at once give their allegiance to the
Most High. and then. after the debate
down in their own consciences, resolve
to stand on the same platform as the
carpenter and prophet of Nazareth
AS the boy who goes to college indi-
Gates his desire for an education, SO these
folk, it is said, have come indicating their
desire for practical Christian education
and looking to the church and its doc
trnes to teach them the story to be
taken as the basis of their conduct in
life. Thus they have come into de-
nomination of people where. class and
caste must go and the Christ standard
of service and sacrifice for the individual
must be accepted.
They have asked the question. as many
have done before them, What would
Jesus have me do2" This question
which is not one for day or week or
year, but is the question for all time
and every man, is the standard for the
individual. for society, for business, for
politics and for religion.
Thus the beginning of the life in the
church is started, and the meetings in the
