LET THE CHURCH BELLS HING on
Savannah Press. J


Tile suggestion that the ringing Of
church bells should be regulated and
that they are upon numerous occas-
ions nuisances does not appeal to The
Press. There should be administered
a singing rebuke to the man who be-
comes so self-centered on Sunday AMI
SO preoccupied upon secular matters
that the sound of welcome to Gods
temple disturbs him. It is not 2 rev.
erent act to complain It is enough to
attempt the regulation Of affairs of
state and the public good without the
meddling in clerical problems or Gus
toms.
There is no church bell in Savan
nah which can be termed discordant
enough to create nuisance. Is it be
cause the beginning of the early daY

it the noon day signal for devotiod
that disturbs the light or late slice ..

MY MUSICAL COM-E-DEE.
(New York Life.)


1t was many and many year ago
Ina, | sat beside the sea,
And | wrote a book fJr a musical SHOW,
In sub divisions three
And | made the lyrics all by hand,
And 1 said, They look good to me!
There was never king in the bloom
ing show,
Nor a tropical scene-not a tree;
Not a dialect part from the first to last
Nor a drinking song. All me
No touch of t. Ghetto in all the
libretto-
Not Jew but the jeu d'esprit!
No burgomeister bald of pate,
No buXom Dar-maid free,
No miser old, with a song of gold,
No village gossip. She
Is a type | quite abominate,
SO she didn't appeal to me!
There were songs that rippled of love
and youth,
With a gurgling note of glee,
And a pot Of the go5d old-fasLioned
sort
Just as pain as Abe;
And humor deity whimsical
As the shafts of Shave. b!
III &
And never a show girl marred its
grace,
For there was none to be;
No pony ballets nor tableaux stunts
Nor girlies with dimpled knee,
Nor featured songs about elephant
rides
In distant isles Feejee!
1t was many and many a year ago
Tat | sat beside the sea,
And | Wrcte the book for this musica
show
And the waves splashed heedlesslyi
And never a manager yet has read
That musical com-e-dee!

Are Present.

Quarterly Meeting Service at CAL

The usual large crowd was attract.
Sunday evening, the occasion being
the fifth special sermon on the
theme "Bible Bells by Rev. George
M. Rourke. The church choir render
ed excellent music and the services
proved exceedingly interesting and
impressive.
"The Work Bell of Life" was the
topic of Rev. Rourke's sermon. He
spoke of work in all of its different
phases, praising the laboring man
and ridiculed the swindler or the in
dividual who tries to live without
working. '"The Bible is the book of
work. Through its entire lines it deals
with only people who work. Idle
ness Is more the root of evil than is
money. 1t Is the inclination which
drives away prosperity it puts dull
finish on the soul and clogs the sill
very stream of true manhood. Idle
ness Is sometimes cultivated and Is
sometimes inherited. The man who
inherits 1t can easily throw off the
habit and there is no excuse for it in
any phase" remarked the speaker.
Rev. Rourke enthusiastically de-
nounced the pool voom and saloon.
|"If 1 were merchant, banker, OF
lawyer, i would not employ "a man
who made a practice of continually
loafing about a cigar store, pool room
or saloon" remarked the pastor. "A
loafer is the most detestible of al
mankind. He places a stigma on ag-
gressive civilization and In general
stops the progress of the good things
In the world.
In conclusion, Rev. Rourke gave q
fine word portrayal of the honest
working man, depicting him as the
most admirable class of all mankind
At the first Reformed church Sun
day morning, the worlds Sunday
School day was appropriately cele-
brated The Sunday School officers
made a special effort to attract q
large attendance and their efforts were
by no means futile. Special music

1.-The Great Teacher was the sub
ject of a beautiful and forceful dis
course by DR.. A. L. Smith, president
of the Ada University, at Epwotth NJ.
T.. church last evening. The subject
was taken from those wonderful words
of Nlcodemeus, Rabbi, we know that
thou art teacher, come from God"
MANY marvel" said the speaker,
that the life of Christ was portrayed
by as many as four different men,
many think that one could perhaps
have given his history to better ad-
vantage. Yet no one man or dozen
men have ever been able to complete
ly record the whole life of one separ-
ate country, can we marvel then, that
no less than four men have striven to
portray the life of the infinite God,
who in all his love, and mercy and
condescension, has stepped down from
off his throne, in the very flesh of NOR
al man to save a wicked and sinful
world. Many wonder that there are
four? They should wonder that there
are not one hundred.
'There are many reasons why the
life of Christ should be written by
more than one man.
First, as 1t has been written, we
are able to view his life from four
sides and angles. BY reading four his
tories of his life we gain greater in
sight, greater appreciation and great
er understanding. God wanted to
reach the jew. Among all the ma
tions, all the people of the world, he
found the Jew the unusual, the extra
ordinary man, and chose him for His
with him yet, the Jew will not be
lost without every effort by Him to
save him. Mathew was written for the
Jew.
Second; Jesus lived I'm the time of
that great and wonderful Roman en-
pire, that empire or real, powerful
strong men; practiced men of affairs,
who have not timeto produce their
own art and literature, and so bor-
rowed 1t from the Greek. For these
st. Mark. He took the Christ, full
grown, ready for service, and said in
sixteen short chapters-here is the
man. Here, too Is a message for the
man too busy in business details to
give much time to the more elabor-
ate histories.
When Alexander conquered the
world, he spread the Greek language,
and with 1t the Greek culture, and
art and love of beauty. st. Luke
was commissioned TO write a gospel
that would appeal to the most re-
fined, and cultured and educated
Greek of the time of Christ, Luke
was student, a poet and a man of
wonderful refinement and culture of
mind and soul, and has produced a
work that stands an epitome of that
cultured age.
Fourth; comes the gospel of st,
John and in this divine book we find
a message to the world and all the
generations to come. 1t was not
written for any special tribe, nation
or people, but for all tribes and all
nations and people.
Four men have produced what lit
tie we known of that INFINITE and
mighty Savior, and rhese things are
written that all may have everlast-
ing life.
"Christ was first Savior, he Is a
Savior today to one and all, What
ever IL lacking he can supply, what
ever is wanting he can provide. He
is a wonderful Savior.
Second he Is a shepherd The
shepherd guides and Keeps well his
fiocks and viii give his life for his
sheep. so the Great Shepherd loved
and watched and gave his life for

had my life to live over" said DR..
Smith 81 would be children's
preacher. If more sermons were
preached to the children. If more care
were taken in forming the character
of the children I'm che right way, the
world could be converted to Chris
tianity more quickly than perhaps
any other way. The Sunday school Is
a great institution. and one thai
holds great promise for good.
Special music was provided by the
orchestra for the occasion.
