Gospel LIGHTHOUSE
Pastor Cunningham Would
Rid City Of Agencies
That Make for Sin
PUTS GOODNESS
ABOVE ALL THINGS

The Rev. Henry c. Cunningham, in
Eastlake Presbyterian Church last
night preached a civic sermon on the
subject: "A Cleaner Wilmington" His
text was: 1.-The city lieth four
squares Rev. 81: 16.
Mr.. Cunningham said in part
THE Apostle John had a vision of
the Holy City. Among the things he
noticed. it was square Now, square
ness is symbolic of perfection. This
is our hope and what we pray and la
Dor for that Wilmington might be-
come better. This topic is Of deep in
terest TO US because this is our home
city. and whatever touches home is
of Importance to us. A cleaner Will
mington means not only a more beau
tiful. but also a happier and healthier
city. Cleanliness is next to Godli-
ness and in some respects cleanli-
ness is a part of Goodness. Like the
individual the city has its external and
internal aspects. Let us consider
these.
Ours is a cleaner city because Of
the work done last week. Houses
were cleaned and many were painted.
Yards and lawns were put in good or
der. Vacant lots that were eye-sores
were cleared of their rubbish. Let
those who neglected this all-important
matter, get busy this week. for the day
of grace has not gone by.
Two things in particular need our
attention. We are not awake as a city.
TO The value of trees. Out in this great
residence section how few tres there
are. How much it means for beauty
and health also. to have rows of trees
on every street. To appreciate them
you have only to notice this matter in
other cities. where trees are plenti-
full.
THE poles and wires should come
down. The place for the wires is
under ground. How unsightly many
OF our streets are because of The poles
and strings of wires. In this matter
we are some ten years behind many
other cities. We can have the best Of
the material things. and yet not have
a clean city. Look at Babylon. Rome
and Paris.
1--WE are not as bad as some cities.
and YET we know there are places that
need TO be cleansed We need to get
higher moral tone. To make viii
mington cleaner We must wipe out
the places that make for uncleanli-
ness. Clear out the saloons. the pool
rooms and the houses of impurity. Our
coast also needs moral cleansing.
is dangerous in some respects and
needs a gospel lighthouse. Wilmington
will become cleaner city not only
by the physical things and education.
but more especially by the Gospel of
Jesus Christ Goodness is profitable
unto all things"
