Morals surpasses Use Of Sword.

The 10th session of the East Penn

this afternoon at the Second United
Brethren Church, seth and Catharne
streets Two hundred deee ties attended
At the conclusion of his sermon, Bishop
W. NJ. Weeklcy read his report on the
increased membership of the organiza-
tion, due in part to the activities of
the cVangelistic meetings conducted by
BILLY" Sunday and the Rev. Dr. Henry
W. Bough, of Harrisburg. In his ad-
dress at the meeting DR. Bough said:
While the present war in Europe is
sad beyond description, yet ] trust you
will not allow it to divert your attention
from your duties as ministers. The
crowned heads in the war zone believe
In The supremacy of Christ but they have
wrong conception of his religion. They
must come to see that the victory of
Christ's Kingdom Is not achieved through
human might, or by the sword or can
non. but by preaching of energized morals
through the Holy Spirit. When the war
is over there will be but two great pow
ers in Europe-one for arstocracy and
one for democracy One will stand for
the empires and the other for republics.
One will demand increased armament and
the other will demand disarmament. Let
the people rule-for II the peoples will
Is carried out there will be no war
II am thankful that President Wilson
is man of peace and against armed con-
hict. The peace treaties recently signed
by the United States. England France
and Russia will consequently make war
impossible. 1t is only a question of time
when all the great Powers will enter into
the same compact. Even If war is dis
turbing the minds OF men we must be-
iicve that God Is still on the throne and
that He will bring an end TO this terrible
conflict"

notified TO appear before Magistrate

quested to take action for the Elevator

operating elevators without certificates.

British warships to hold up vessels to
