LIVING .seEK AS JESUS WOULD
Many People In Cleveland Try II Tor
One Week as Expert
ment.

CLEVELAND, o., Jan. 1O.-The move
ment begun last Sunday by l.SOO young
people of this city to live for two weeks
as Jesus would has assumed a scope Tar
beyond the expectations of its promoters
It now is city-wide and is spreading TO
nearby towns Fully 10000 volunteers
have unooficially Joined the movement
The city officials are among those taking
an Interest. Many interesting expert
ences have been related by those VINO
have completed the first weeks test.
Somc say they cannot carry the practice
into business. Others say they can. All
sorts of arguments have resulted. as dis
cussiCns are being carried on in homes,
in the church. in clubs and I'm the local
newspapers as TO what Jesus would do
and what would be His attitude toward
the common forms of amusement and hui
man endeavor. The arguments center
about the theater. card playing dancing
and base ball, with supporters on either
side
The test has attracted the attention of
people all over the country. 1t is con-
side red likely the Cleveland movement
will result in other cities making the test,
as the local effort is said to be the first
practical and applied one ever made on a
large and comprehensive basis to deal
with modern conditions as IL is believed
Jesus would.
