TANNING SUNDAY.

Rev. Billy" Sunday, former base
ball star who has been a sensa tional
evangelist for many years now, has
heen wont, for as many years as his
term of service in peripatetic ca
pacity counts. to use language In
the pulpit that would outrage the
sense OF decency of longshoreman.
Somehow. nobody else did anything
to Mr.. Sunday for this. although
many have threatened. and 1t remains
for Wheeling. West Virginia, to take
the first step toward the tanning of
profanity. The city council OF Wheel
ing has anticipated the coming of Mr..
Sunday by half year, for he is not
billed to conduct meetings there be-
fore the first part of 1912. The alder
men have passed an ordinance impos-
ing fine upon any person who. In
public address, uses vile or vulgar
language. The author OF The ordi-
nance has been bold enough to state
that its purpose Is to restrain the un-
bridled vocabulary of Mr.. Sunday.
This move is probably unprece-
dented In the history of religion. II
IL really remarkable thing that the
government OF city should feel
called upon to defend it's charge
against obsccnity from the mouth Of
an ordained minister of the gospel

Color photography has proved some
things about the properties OF light
which were never known before In

to demonstrate that there are colors
so refined that the human eye cannot
perceive them. just as there are sounds
of such high pitch that the ear Is in
sensible to them. In the range of visi-
bile colors of the spectrum. or the rain

of light existed was proved I'm theory
by chemists. but II remained for color
photography to demonstrate them
vispally. Photographs have been made
with these ultra light rays. the use of
n lens excluding all but the infra- red
rays being especially successful. In
photographs made with this light the
lights and shadows of ordinary sun
light as they appear to the eye are
exactly reversed. and the sun appears

on the peculiar sort or evangelism
practiced by Mr.. Sunday.
In case like this the Judgment OF
the Bloomington dll) Paragraph is
OF value. In bloomington Mr.. Sunday
conducted what was regarded as a
highly successful series OF services
four years ago. The people who pro-
fessed religion under his guidance
numbered several thousand. The
Paragraph Is a ultra conservative
paper, yet 1t comments as follows on
the ordinance passed by the Wheeling
council.
Mr. Sunday could take notice of this
ordinance with much advantage to
himself and his cause. He Is n most
effective evangelist as must be ad-
mitted. hut his message is weakened
by the quality of some of his language.
II ls common to hear II said that
his questionable speech may he ex.
cused because there are some who
could not be reached In any other way
That Is an absolutely erroneous and
vicious view OF the case. II degrades
religion, which above all things, is ex-
altlng and dignlfied 1t has no sane
tion with the great teacher or any
of his early disciples. who addressed
the multitudcs. They all spoke plain
~. but never coarsely--never IN the
terms OF ribaldry.
There Is not an instance that can
used questionable language I'm which
speech could not have
been substituted with equal and even
more powerful effect A worse de-
fusion never obtained than that the
truths OF the Bible need the language
OF the slums that they may be brought
to the comprehension Of all. There
Is not man or woman In the United
States. who speaks the English
language, so low, so ignorant, that he
cannot comprehend truth that comes
In plain and dignlfied terms.
Mr.. Sunday need abate none OF his
zeal, none of his eccentricitles OF de-
livery. none OF the arts of the trage-
dian In which he Is an adept. if not
n master-all these may be excused.
But II he will chasten his speech

priety which dwells at last In the
