Of Representative-elect Kirkpatrick on

Mr.. Kirkpatrick's wife had reached
Washington the preceding evening.

Heflin Attacks Suffrage.
In attacking the suffragettes on
Saturday in the house, Representative
Heflin of Alabama inserted some of
the best satire which has ever gone
into debate. In the course of his re-
marks he said:
"The suffragettes who have been
marching on Washington have already
had their troubles. understand that
when they left one place the hens quit
the coops and started to follow them.
And rooster flew in front of a
speckled hen and asked her for
heavens sake to go back, and she
crowed in his face.
81 recollect hearing about a suffra'
gette who was making a speech. She
said: I pant for the right to vote.
pant for the right to exercise my
political rights And some one In the
audience spoke up and said: LAZY
you pant for pair of pants.
This sally provoked a rejoinder from
Representative Hobson of Alabama
who spoke heartily in favor OF suf'
frage. Hobson and Heflin are rivals
for the senatorship in their home state
and as {. result, they will probably
have a debate on the subject for the
hero of the Merrimac is just as
heartily in favor of suffrage as Helm
is opposed to it. Both have regulations
as orators and the approaching COM
bat will be fit for the gods

the older songs might have been more
or less shallow in sentiment, they con.
tanned none of the undercurrent OF
suggestiveness which run through al
most every line OF the present day
rag time, not to mention some Of the
outrageous and ribald verses which
assume to desecrate the name Of song.
Such as, II see that you are mar
ried," Call me up some rainy after
noon," when get you alone tonight"
''Everybody's dom it," "Grizzly bear"
and an almost endless string Of SINH
lar strain, are to my mind several
miles farther down the line than the
frivolous, perhaps, but innocent songs
Of twenty years ago. The spirit Of the
times seems to carry these worse than
ditties along with it, with apparently
little or no thought that the popular
song business is in sore need of a gem
eral spring housekeeping.

them as one that Knocked. Therein
we read a volume as to Lots reputa'
ton with his own family. His re.
ligion has evidently not impressed
them very seriously. A wife once
returned home from a revival meet
ing and spoke to her husband about
his own salvation. His answer was
overwhelming: Il do not see wherein
our lives are essentially different,
and wherein mine would be better
by making the same profession as
yours
Sodom jested as Lot took his fam
lily toward the east, just as come
persons for little while laughed
and jeered at the mud-spattered man
who rode seriously through the
streets of the valley town, crying
that the dam above had broken.
1t is hard for Broadway to get
the viewpoint of the church. Spirit
ual things are spiritually discern
ed" The worst of spiritual deafness
and sure proof of it's ripeness for
destruction, is that it does not know
that it is dead, and does not recog-
nize life. 1t has lost the sense OF sin.
The sin against the Holy Ghost, for
which there is no pardon, is the I'M
consciousness of any sin, the soul so
scared with evil that it cannot re-
spond to the call Of life.
"Escape to the Mountain"
Even Lot needed the encouraging
hand Of his heavenly visitors to get
him out of Sodom in time Repeat
eddy they babe him escape for his
life, and their last cry was, Escape
to the mountain lest thou be con-
sumed." Not to another city in the
plain was he to go. Lot should
have learned the city lesson by this
time. Instead of the dangerous at
mosphere of the plain he should flee
to the east to the windy heights Of
Pisgah, where Moses later stood to
view the land.
The way of salvation is the call
to the heights. It is getting above
the Sodom and the sin level. They
who heed the call of Christ's mes
sages seek the high atmosphere
where the fresh breezes of the spirit
sweep. Life in this loftier altitude
escapes the enervating tendencies OF
the plains. Salvation Is found lin
the rock that is higher than l."
Looking Back.
Mrs. Lots heart turned back to
Sodom before ever her eyes looked
back. Her desire remained in the
city: therefore she missed deliver
ance. She is the eternal example of
the person who wants Christ and the
world also. She stands for those
who are not willing to burn bridges
behind them and go all the way into
the new eternal spiritual life. Given
her choice, Lots wife would probably
have elected to camp on the outskirts
of the city until the trouble was over,
returning at the first opportunity.
In the new moral crisis Of our
times, need is for salty saints who
leaven life Not the conformers, but
the transformers are the potent
forces in the midst of this world.
They who hear witness for righteous
ness, even until they are called upon
to bear the ultimate testimony
against sin, are not only the best
friends of God, but they are also the
best friends of the world. The peo-
pie who dare to be different from
the crowd around them, and who re-
fuse to be led by the mob, are the
ones who ultimately find the crowd
following them.
